Venus has dense clouds and thick atmosphere, yet there is no evidence for water on the surface. Why?
◦ The water has all been taken up in minerals on the surface due to weather long ago because of high chemical weathering rates.
◦ Water could not survive as liquid water on the surface because it is too hot.
◦ The water is bound up as sulfuric acids and other acids in the atmosphere.
◦ It is hard to know because the clouds obscure the surface and only a few probes have survived landing.

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).
