Accepted Answer

Increase in tooth decay to 17%

Question 5

Why does the use of manure as a nutrient source for plants potentially increase the risk of sickness in humans?

Accepted Answer

Manure can introduce pathogens into the food supply.

Question 6

Which era is associated with the highest percentage of tooth decay among humans?

Accepted Answer

Accepted Answer

Bronze tools were in use, indicating advanced metallurgy.

Question 8

Which of the following is NOT a requirement for plant growth as listed in the study materials?

Accepted Answer

Sunlight

Question 9

If a population transitions from a nomadic hunter-gatherer lifestyle to settled agriculture, what change in dental health is most likely to occur?

Accepted Answer

Increase in tooth decay due to higher carbohydrate consumption

Question 10

Which of the following best explains the increase in malnutrition during urbanization?

Accepted Answer

Closer proximity to people leading to disease spread and food shortages

Question 11

Which equation best represents the relationship between tooth decay rate ($$D) $$and carbohydrate consumption ($$C) in $$early human populations?

Accepted Answer

$$D = k 	imes C$$

Question 12

A student claims that the agricultural era had less tooth decay than the hunter-gatherer era. Based on historical evidence, how should you respond?

Accepted Answer

Disagree, because tooth decay increased to 9% during the agricultural era.

Question 13

Which of the following is a plausible reason for the increase in tooth decay during the agricultural era?

Accepted Answer

Higher intake of starchy foods like wheat

Question 14

If a plant receives nutrients and water but is grown in poor soil, which outcome is most likely?

Accepted Answer

The plant will struggle to grow due to lack of essential minerals.

Accepted Answer

He wrote the first university anatomy texts based on cadaver dissection.

Question 16

A population living in close proximity during urbanization is most likely to experience which health issue?

Question 18

Which of the following is a likely effect of malnutrition during urbanization?

Accepted Answer

Increased susceptibility to disease

Question 19

If a plant is grown with manure as its only nutrient source, what is a potential risk to human health upon consumption?

Accepted Answer

Increased risk of illness due to pathogens in manure

Question 20

Which of the following best explains why tooth decay rates increased as humans transitioned from hunter-gatherer to agricultural societies?

Accepted Answer

Agricultural diets included more fermentable carbohydrates, promoting tooth decay.
