Answer the following question given this paragraph: The eye of a person with myopia is longer than normal. As a result, images are focused in front of the retina ( top left ). A concave lens is used to correct myopia to help focus images on the retina ( top right ). Farsightedness, or hyperopia, occurs when objects are focused in back of the retina ( bottom left ). It is corrected with a convex lens ( bottom right ). Q: What part of a person with myopia is longer than normal? Choices: - arm - leg - neck - eye A:
eye

Answer the following question given this paragraph: A radioactive isotope, or radioisotope, has atoms with unstable nuclei. The unstable nuclei naturally decay, or break down, by losing energy and particles of matter to become more stable. If they gain or lose protons as they decay, they become different elements. Over time, as the nuclei continue to decay, less and less of the original radioisotope remains. Q: What is another name for a radioactive isotope? Choices: - nono particle - kilocalorie - xerophyte - radiostope A:
(Answer)
radiostope
Ques: Answer the following question given this paragraph: 20.2 Blood Flow, Blood Pressure, and Resistance Blood flow is the movement of blood through a vessel, tissue, or organ. The slowing or blocking of blood flow is called resistance. Blood pressure is the force that blood exerts upon the walls of the blood vessels or chambers of the heart. The components of blood pressure include systolic pressure, which results from ventricular contraction, and diastolic pressure, which results from ventricular relaxation. Pulse pressure is the difference between systolic and diastolic measures, and mean arterial pressure is the "average" pressure of blood in the arterial system, driving blood into the tissues. Pulse, the expansion and recoiling of an artery, reflects the heartbeat. The variables affecting blood flow and blood pressure in the systemic circulation are cardiac output, compliance, blood volume, blood viscosity, and the length and diameter of the blood vessels. In the arterial system, vasodilation and vasoconstriction of the arterioles is a significant factor in systemic blood pressure: Slight vasodilation greatly decreases resistance and increases flow, whereas slight vasoconstriction greatly increases resistance and decreases flow. In the arterial system, as resistance increases, blood pressure increases and flow decreases. In the venous system, constriction increases blood pressure as it does in arteries; the increasing pressure helps to return blood to the heart. In addition, constriction causes the vessel lumen to become more rounded, decreasing resistance and increasing blood flow. Venoconstriction, while less important than arterial vasoconstriction, works with the skeletal muscle pump, the respiratory pump, and their valves to promote venous return to the heart. Q: The force that blood exerts upon the walls of the blood vessels or upon the chambers of the heart is known as blood what? Choices: - squeeze - push - vaccuum - pressure A:
Ans: pressure

Answer the following question given this paragraph: The modern day formulation of gun powder is called black powder. It is still commonly used today. Its formulation is still quite similar to what was used in 9 th century China. Black powder is considered a low explosive. It is a mixture that burns quickly, but the resulting shock wave travels at subsonic speeds. The speed at which it burns is dependent on the accessibility of oxygen atoms to the carbon source. In contrast, high explosives like nitroglycerin detonate instead of burning, creating shock waves that are supersonic (faster than the speed of sound). Q: High explosives create shock waves that exceed the speed of sound, a phenomenon that goes by what term? Choices: - light speed - ion speed - turbulence - supersonic A:
(A).
supersonic
Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: Remember that a phase change depends on the direction of the heat transfer. If heat transfers in, solids become liquids, and liquids become solids at the melting and boiling points, respectively. If heat transfers out, liquids solidify, and gases condense into liquids. Q: What type of direction does a phase change depend on? Choices: - weight transfer - power transfer - humidity transfer - heat transfer A:

Ans:heat transfer
Answer the following question given this paragraph: The polymerase chain reaction is a way of making copies of a gene. It uses high temperatures and an enzyme to make new DNA molecules. The process keeps cycling to make many copies of a gene. Q: The polymerase chain reaction is a way of making copies of what? Choices: - an enzyme - a method - a form - a gene A:
a gene
