Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
There have been mathematical models used to predict the future state of our climate should we remain
on our current trajectory. These models can be applied to any system though. Information can be found
in the section Human Activity is Causing Global Oceanic Change.



Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
The extra nutrients often come from sewage and fertilizers. Eutrophication occurs at the mouths of
almost all the world's rivers. Information can be found in the section Marine Pollutants May Be
Natural or Human Generated.

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).
