Ques: Answer the following question given this paragraph:   Steels are a very important class of alloys. The many types of steels are primarily composed of iron, with various amounts of the elements carbon, chromium, manganese, nickel, molybdenum, and boron. Steels are widely used in building construction because of their strength, hardness, and resistance to corrosion. Most large modern structures like skyscrapers and stadiums are supported by a steel skeleton (see Figure below ).   Q: What is the primary component of steel alloys?   Choices:  - carbon  - titanium  - alluminum  - iron  A:
Ans: iron

Ques: Answer the following question given this paragraph:   Most mature plant cells have a large central vacuole . This vacuole can make up as much as 90% of the cell’s volume. The central vacuole has a number of functions, including storing substances such as water, enzymes, and salts. It also helps plant tissues, such as stems and leaves, stay rigid and hold their shape. It even helps give flowers, like the ones in Figure below , their beautiful colors.   Q: What part of a mature plant cell is responsible for storing substances like water, enzymes, and salts?   Choices:  - little vacuole  - second vacuole  - large vacuole  - central vacuole  A:
Ans:
central vacuole
