Answer:

A. The first reason that teen brains are more sensitive to junk food is that they are still developing the ability to assess risks and control actions.

Explanation:

The sentence supporting the conclusion that <u>teenager's brains change over time</u> is the<em> first sentence from the selection</em>.

The first sentence provides some context clues such as the word "developing." This word can be associated with the phrase, <em>"change over time."</em> To develop is to become more mature, which is definitely a change. This means that the reason for the change relies on the development of the teenager's ability to assess risks and control his/her actions, which means when they get older, <u>they become more capable of choosing healthier options.</u>

Choices B, C and D <em>do not provide any support regarding the development of the brain. </em>They only state some facts regarding the function of the prefrontal cortex and which part of the brain the change occurs.

At what temperature do steel beams melt, And what temperature is jet fuel when exposed to fire. The jet fuel temperature is not
hichkok12 [17]
When burning, Yes.

A normal fire in a steel-frame building can soften the structure to the point of collapse.


Building laws / regulations require that all the structural steelwork is either covered in a protective coating (such as intumescent paint) or boxed in with fire-resistant plaster, so the fire can be extinguished before the building is weakened - or at least give people time to get out.

If that coating or plaster is damaged by impact or an explosion, the steel is exposed and the building can collapse relatively quickly.

(The common intumescent coatings just look like paint until exposed to fire, so the steelwork may appear to have no particular protection - but it always does).

Information:
http://www.steelconstruction.info/Fire_p...

See the images below - small buildings with steel-frame roofs after fires; you can see the amount of "sagging" and distortion on structures that have no particularly high loads.
These have burned long enough to destroy any protection, or they did not have any as the structure does not support occupied space.
