(A)They are not at the same exact latitude. (B)The ocean near Portland moderates the temperature. (C)Fresh water is more likely to freeze than salt water. (D) Minneapolis is much windier, due to its location in the middle of North America.

11. What is the explanation for how a modern transmission electron microscope (TEM) can achieve a resolution of about 0.2 nanometers, whereas a standard light microscope has a maximum resolution of about 200 nanometers? (A)Glass lenses in light microscopes refract light, which reduces resolution. (B)Contrast is enhanced by staining with atoms of heavy metal. (C)Electron beams have much shorter wavelengths than visible light. (D) The electron microscope has a much greater ratio of image size to real size.

(A)only in the nucleus (B)only in the nucleus and mitochondria (C)only in the nucleus and chloroplasts (D) in the nucleus, mitochondria, and chloroplasts
14. Most cells cannot harness heat to perform work because_________.(A)heat is not a form of energy(B)temperature is usually uniform throughout a cell(C)heat can never be used to do work(D) heat must remain constant during work
15. Research on conditions that are relatively new to human populations such as myopia, breast cancer, and obesity support the conclusion that_________. (A)human populations have accumulated a number of mutations that have become fixed by genetic drift (B)the changes in human lifestyle account for all of the increase in frequencies of these conditions (C)these conditions are indeed "diseases of civilization" and are likely caused by the interaction between genes (genetic susceptibility) and novel environments (D) these human conditions are mere artifacts of the way in which they have been evaluated
