Answer to Question 1

Io: Molten to core, high density (3600 kg/m3), abundance of sulfur. Surface very active.
Europa: Water ice crust over liquid water ocean over rocky core. Lower density than Io (3000 kg/m3). Surface somewhat active, with only a few fairly new impact craters.
Ganymede, Callisto: Water ice, frozen. Low density (1900 kg/m3). Surface dead and inactive, with many craters.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs. The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.
