Petroleum, or crude oil, is a fossil fuel found deep in the ground. The petrified remains of organisms like algae and plankton gradually accumulate over time to create this.
As further layers are added on top of one another, the bottommost layers are heated and subjected to pressure, causing the matter to convert into the waxy material kerogen. Further prolonged exposure to heat and pressure causes the kerogen to undergo the catagenesis process, changing it into a liquid and gases.
After this pyrolysis (heating) process, crude oil is produced. The term “oil window” is used to refer to the temperature range in which kerogen is converted into crude oil. Below this temperature, crude oil is still kerogen, and above it, it turns into a natural gas.

Stagflation is a combination of the words “stagnation” and “inflation.” It happens when the rate of inflation of a country’s currency slows down while the unemployment rate stays high. It makes public policy hard to figure out because actions meant to lower inflation can make unemployment worse and vice versa. One way to measure stagflation is to add the unemployment rate to the inflation rate. This is called the “misery index,” and it was used to change the results of the 1976 and 1980 presidential elections in the United States.
1. What are the causes of stagflation?
a. Unemployment is high and inflation is high. b. Unemployment is low and inflation is low. c. Unemployment is high and inflation is low. d. Unemployment is low and inflation is high.
The Ansari X prize was a space competition in which the X prize foundation offered $10 million to the first non-government organization to launch a reusable manned spacecraft into space twice within two weeks. This prize was based on aviation prizes from the early 1900s and was meant to help spread the idea of cheap space travel. The tier one project, which launched the manned space plane Spaceship One in 2004, was the winner and the first group to successfully launch a private space flight. Since then, other X prizes have been announced, like sending a rover to the moon and making it work there.
2. What was the name of the Ansari X prize project that won?
Canadian Arrow B. Star Chaser Industries C. Tier One D. Inter Orbital Systems
Social democracy is a political philosophy from the center-left that sees itself as a type of reformist democratic socialism. Social democratic policies might give everyone the right to public services like healthcare, workers’ compensation, and care for the elderly. Social democracy is now linked to the trade union and backs workers’ rights to collective bargaining. Even though Marxist and socialist intellectuals came up with the idea of social democracy, it has become synonymous with liberal capitalism. Critics of the movement say that it has abandoned its original goals and aims and has little in common with the socialism from which it came.
What does the passage not say about social democracy as a policy?
A: Workers’ compensation B: Collective bargaining C: Care for the elderly D: Cooperative businesses
