1. Butterflies start out as eggs. Butterflies lay their eggs on leaves. The egg hatches into a caterpillar with a tube-shaped body.

The caterpillar eats leaves, buds, or flowers of plants.

Caterpillars eat a lot and grow fast. Some caterpillars harm plants.

When a caterpillar is full size, it goes into another stage called a chrysalis. Caterpillars attach themselves to something solid before becoming a chrysalis.

The caterpillar inside the chrysalis changes into a butterfly. Some butterflies make the change in one week. Some butterflies take years to change.

When the change is complete, the adult butterfly splits the chrysalis. The insect unfolds its wings and pumps blood and air into them. It spreads out the wings until they dry and harden.

The beautiful butterfly then flies off to slurp nectar from flowers. Most butterflies live only one or two weeks.

An egg.

A chrysalis.

C.

A caterpillar.

D.

A tube-shaped body.

8. In meteorology, a cloud is an aerosol comprising a visible mass of minute liquid droplets or frozen crystals, both of which are made of water or various chemicals. The droplets or particles are suspended in the atmosphere above the surface of a planetary body. On Earth, clouds are formed by the saturation of air in the homosphere (which includes the troposphere, stratosphere, and mesosphere). The air may be cooled to its dew point by a variety of atmospheric processes or it may gain moisture (usually in the form of water vapor) from an adjacent source.

Cirriform clouds that form higher up in the stratosphere and mesosphere have common names for their main types, but are sub-classified alpha-numerically . They are relatively uncommon and are mostly seen in the polar regions of Earth. Clouds have been observed in the atmospheres of other planets and moons in the Solar System and beyond. However, due to their different temperature characteristics, they are often composed of other substances such as methane, ammonia, and sulfuric acid as well as water.

Which of the following statements is the true about the formation of clouds on earth?

A.

The air may be heated to its dew point by a variety of atmospheric processes or it may gain moisture B.

11. Acne is a long-term skin disease when hair follicles are clogged with dead skin cells and oil from the skin. Acne is characterized by areas of blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, and greasy skin, and may result in scarring. The resulting appearance can lead to reduced self-esteem and, in extreme cases, depression.

Acne is commonly classified by severity as mild, moderate, or severe. This type of categorization can be an important factor in determining the appropriate treatment regimen. Mild acne is classically defined as open (blackheads) and closed

(whiteheads) clogged skin follicles (comedones) limited to the face with occasional inflammatory minor pimples. Acne may be considered to be of moderate severity when a higher number of inflammatory pimples occur on the face compared to mild cases of acne. Lastly, severe acne is said to occur when nodules (the painful 'bumps' lying under the skin) are extensive.

Which statement is false about acne?

A.

There are three classifications of acne B.

Its moderate severity is when a higher number of inflammatory pimples occur on the face C.

It is caused by reduced self-esteem D.
