Answer: Emily's separation from average students is a result of TRACKING
Explanation: Tracking in this context can be defined as the awareness of Emily especially as a result of close monitoring.
For her to be considered a bright student is as a result of close monitoring. Her further progress "large quantities of homework that was conceptually complicated" is also tracking in the sense that it observes and monitors.
Answer: Half of you is exactly as old as your mother. That is because the egg from your mother that was fertilized by your dad's sperm, was present in her ovaries the day she was born.
New sperm, on the other hand, is produced constantly in the male testicles. This process takes around 130 days for sperm to be fully formed, ready to die or create a new life.
So, men manufacture new reproductive chromosome-containing sperm every day, whereas women only manufacture their entire lifelong supply of chromosome-containing eggs once in their existence. This, in fact, already happens before they are born.
Quite enchanting if you think about it, actually.

Working memory, in comparison, allows for us to take these short-term memories, recall them, and manipulate them in ways that short-term memory is incapable of handling.</span>
