Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Sunspots are relatively cool, dark blotches that appear on the surface on the Sun. They are thought to be caused by changes in the Sun's magnetic field and are surrounded by plages, areas of above average solar temperatures. The plages are larger than the sunspots, and the net effect of sunspots is a sun with an above-average surface temperature. Cyclic variations in the amount of sunspots lead to cyclic variations in the amount of incoming solar radiation reaching the Earth. These cycles match up with changes in the Earth's climate on a number of timescales. However, the magnitude of the forcing is much less than the observed changes in climate, so if sunspot cycles are driving climate, it must be with the help of a positive feedback system that has not yet been identified.

Now it is known that peptic ulcers are predominantly caused by Helicobacter pylori, a spiral-shaped bacterium that normally exist in the stomach.

Many people have small pouches in their colons that bulge outward through weak spots. Each pouch is called a diverticulum. About 10% of Americans older than age 40 years have diverticulosis, which, when the pouches become infected or inflamed, is called diverticulitis. The main cause of diverticular disease is a low-fiber diet.

Alzheimer's disease affects only about 10% of people older than 65 years of age. Most forms of decreased mental function and dementia are caused by disuse (letting the mind get lazy).

Did you know?

Though methadone is often used to treat dependency on other opioids, the drug itself can be abused. Crushing or snorting methadone can achieve the opiate "rush" desired by addicts. Improper use such as these can lead to a dangerous dependency on methadone. This drug now accounts for nearly one-third of opioid-related deaths.
