Answer the following question given this paragraph: Respiratory System: Respiratory Distress Syndrome Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) primarily occurs in infants born prematurely. Up to 50 percent of infants born between 26 and 28 weeks and fewer than 30 percent of infants born between 30 and 31 weeks develop RDS. RDS results from insufficient production of pulmonary surfactant, thereby preventing the lungs from properly inflating at birth. A small amount of pulmonary surfactant is produced beginning at around 20 weeks; however, this is not sufficient for inflation of the lungs. As a result, dyspnea occurs and gas exchange cannot be performed properly. Blood oxygen levels are low, whereas blood carbon dioxide levels and pH are high. The primary cause of RDS is premature birth, which may be due to a variety of known or unknown causes. Other risk factors include gestational diabetes, cesarean delivery, second-born twins, and family history of RDS. The presence of RDS can lead to other serious disorders, such as septicemia (infection of the blood) or pulmonary hemorrhage. Therefore, it is important that RDS is immediately recognized and treated to prevent death and reduce the risk of developing other disorders. Medical advances have resulted in an improved ability to treat RDS and support the infant until proper lung development can occur. At the time of delivery, treatment may include resuscitation and intubation if the infant does not breathe on his or her own. These infants would need to be placed on a ventilator to mechanically assist with the breathing process. If spontaneous breathing occurs, application of nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) may be required. In addition, pulmonary surfactant is typically administered. Death due to RDS has been reduced by 50 percent due to the introduction of pulmonary surfactant therapy. Other therapies may include corticosteroids, supplemental oxygen, and assisted ventilation. Supportive therapies, such as temperature regulation, nutritional support, and antibiotics, may be administered to the premature... Q: Respiratory distress syndrome results from insufficient production of what? A:

OPTIONS:
- carbon dioxide
- alveoli
- lung tissue
- pulmonary surfactant

Answer: pulmonary surfactant

Problem: OPTIONS:

- The width of the parts
- the maximum parts
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Waves are identified by several characteristics. There is a center line where the medium would be if there were no wave, which is sometimes describes as the undisturbed position. The displacement of the medium above this undisturbed position is called a crest and the displacement below the undisturbed position is called a trough . The maximums of the crest and trough are equal and are called the amplitude . The distance between equivalent positions on succeeding waves is called the wavelength . The wavelength could be measured from a crest to the next crest or from a trough to the next trough, and is commonly represented with the Greek letter lambda, . Q: Amplitude describes what about the wave's crest and trough? A:
Answer: the maximum parts

Problem:OPTIONS:
- tides
- ranges
- particles
- waves

Answer the following question given this paragraph: An obstacle or opening that is shorter than the wavelength causes greater diffraction of waves. Q: An obstacle or opening that is shorter than the wavelength causes greater diffraction of what? A:
****
A: waves

Answer the following question given this paragraph: TiCl4(l) + 2Mg(s) Ti(s) + 2MgCl2(s) The only other alkaline earth that is widely used as the metal is beryllium, which is extremely toxic. Ingestion of beryllium or exposure to beryllium-containing dust causes a syndrome called berylliosis, characterized by severe inflammation of the respiratory tract or other tissues. A small percentage of beryllium dramatically increases the strength of copper or nickel alloys, which are used in nonmagnetic, nonsparking tools (such as wrenches and screwdrivers), camera springs, and electrical contacts. The low atomic number of beryllium gives it a very low tendency to absorb x-rays and makes it uniquely suited for applications involving radioactivity. Both elemental Be and BeO, which is a high-temperature ceramic, are used in nuclear reactors, and the windows on all x-ray tubes and sources are made of beryllium foil. Millions of tons of calcium compounds are used every year. As discussed in earlier chapters, CaCl 2 is used as "road salt" to lower the freezing point of water on roads in cold temperatures. In addition, CaCO 3 is a. Q: What aspect of beryllium allows it to absorb x-rays? A:
OPTIONS:
- magnetism
- relative atomic number
- high atomic number
- low atomic number
low atomic number

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Common digestive system problems include foodborne illness and food allergies. Following healthy food-handling practices may decrease your risk of foodborne illness. Food allergy symptoms can be prevented by avoiding the offending foods. Q: How can you prevent food allergy symptoms? A:
OPTIONS:
- antioxidants
- stem cell therapy
- antiviral drugs
- avoid offending foods

Answer: avoid offending foods

input with options: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Polarization leads to the buildup of electric charges on objects. This buildup of charges is known as static electricity . Once an object becomes charged, it is likely to remain charged until another object touches it or at least comes very close to it. That's because electric charge cannot travel easily through air, especially if the air is dry. Q: What leads to the buildup of electric charges on objects? A:
OPTIONS:
- movement
- gravity
- rotation
- polarization
output:
polarization
