  B) determine whether DNA could have formed from amino acids.
  C) determine whether DNA could have formed from water and methane.
  D) determine whether amino acids could have formed naturally on Earth.
  E) determine whether amino acids could have formed from water, methane, carbon dioxide and ammonia.

Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Although Sedna is probably not part of Pluto's Kuiper Belt, but a member of the even more distant and scattered Oort Cloud, the fact that it is almost as large as Pluto definitely made Pluto's hold on planet 9 status harder to defend.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
