The graph shows ice core data that illustrate historical trends in the amount of carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere. Scientists attribute global warming
to recent increases in human activities that produce carbon dioxide. Which
kind of data would show that a new solution to the problem of global
warming is working?

A. Historic atmospheric CO2 levels would be the same as current
levels
B. Current atmospheric CO2 levels would be increasing at a steady
rate.
C. Historic atmospheric CO2 levels would no longer appear to
increase over time.
D. Current atmospheric CO2 levels would be increasing more slowly.

Bisphenol a (often called bpa) is a chemical found in products that people use every day, from water bottles to food containers to children's toys. unfortunately, bpa leaches out of its many products and makes its way into our bodies. what are the health effects of bpa exposure? ongoing research is finding that elevated exposure to bpa can affect a wide variety of developmental and physiological processes, but one of the first studies of bpa's health effects came about because of a simple mistake in the lab. at a laboratory at case western reserve university in 1998, geneticist patricia hunt was making a routine check of her female lab mice. as she extracted and examined developing eggs from the ovaries, she began to wonder what had gone wrong. she noticed that many of the eggs showed problems with their chromosomes, and some had irregular amounts of genetic material, which can lead to miscarriages and birth defects in mammals. she learned that a lab assistant had mistakenly washed the plastic mouse cages and water bottles with a harsh soap, releasing bpa from the plastic. knowing that bpa is an endocrine disruptor, a chemical that can enter organisms and mimic hormones, hunt set out to discover whether it had adversely affected her mice.
