Inglês
Every year, 6.5 million dogs, cats, and other former pets are abandoned or lost and enter shelters. But
of all these animals, only 3.2 million are adopted and many see shelters again after less than a year of finding a
new home.
Deciding to adopt a pet is an enormous responsibility. As such, many people choose to foster these pets as the shelters search for a permanent home. If you yourself choose to adopt permanently, be sure you are financially stable enough to support a living creature, have enough space for the pet to be comfortable, and that all other living creatures in the house (other pets, children, adults) are willing for such a big change.
With publicly available data from the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, the Humane Society and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, we can better understand the unfortunate circumstances so many pets find themselves in, to better improve their short lives.

Q4200525
Inglês
Obesity is an epidemic that represents a public health challenge. According to the World Obesity Atlas
2025, the total number of adults living with obesity is expected to increase by more than 115% between 2010
and 2030, rising from 524 million to 1.13 billion. The scenario is even more concerning because most countries
worldwide lack sufficient plans and policies to address rising obesity levels.
It is in this context that the so-called “weight-loss pens” are gaining increasing traction. These are injectable medications that mimic the action of the intestinal hormone GLP-1 (and, in some cases, also GIP), increasing satiety and improving glycemic control. Initially developed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, these drugs are also now among the main approved therapies for obesity treatment.
GLP-1 agonists are medications that mimic the action of the body’s natural hormone called GLP-1 (glucagon‐like peptide‐1), which plays a role in blood sugar control. They bind to receptors on cells – like fitting into a “lock” – and activate these receptors to produce effects similar to those the hormone itself would cause. This is the case with semaglutide.
Dual agonists work similarly but act on two different receptors simultaneously: in addition to GLP-1, they also act on GIP, an acronym for gastric inhibitory polypeptide. This is the case with tirzepatide, which acts on the brain and gastrointestinal tract to reduce appetite, increase satiety, and slow gastric emptying.
Although effective for weight loss, the rapid weight reduction promoted by these medications is not limited to the loss of body fat. Part of the weight lost can also come from lean mass, which is composed of muscles, bones, and organs.

I. De acordo com o Atlas Mundial da Obesidade de 2025, estima-se que os índices de obesidade terão mais que o dobro do crescimento entre 2010 e 2030.
II. A maioria dos países possui estratégias e políticas eficazes para combater as crescentes taxas de obesidade.
III. As chamadas “canetas emagrecedoras” atuam na mimetização dos hormônios do intestino, tais como o GLP-1 e, em alguns casos, o GIP.
IV. Os agentes agonistas ou imitadores, tais como a tirzepatida, atuam em dois receptores hormonais simultaneamente.
V. A perda de peso causada por esses medicamentos impacta na diminuição da gordura corporal e não reduz a massa magra.
Assinale a alternativa que apresenta apenas asserções corretas.

Q4200524
Inglês
Before Halo became the killer app for Microsoft's Xbox console, it was actually supposed to be a thirdperson shooter for Apple's Macs. CEO and company founder Steve Jobs even introduced the game to the world
on stage during 1999's Macworld Conference, which still had an epic theme tune and aliens but was otherwise
very different to the Halo we know now.
“We got up on stage with Steve Jobs at Macworld and we talked about it there,” co-creator Marcus Lehto remembered in an interview with Kent State Magazine […]
Looking for studios and exclusives to bulk up its Xbox launch slate, Microsoft eventually called the studio, which was at that point in a spiky financial situation. “And then Microsoft said, ‘Steve Jobs can't have that. We're going to buy you and move you all to the Pacific Northwest, and then we're going to have you build this game for the Xbox.’”
I'm guessing that was creative, incomplete paraphrasing on Lehto's part, but imagining Bill Gates and Steve Jobs embroiled in some kind of tech billionaire civil war over the rights to Halo does bring a smile to my face. The rest is history, though – Halo: Combat Evolved launched alongside the OG Xbox and the series has become synonymous with Microsoft's consoles ever since.

Autonomous vehicles — also known as self-driving cars
or self-driving vehicles — are vehicles that can navigate and
operate safely with little or no human input or intervention.
Autonomous vehicles are equipped with autonomous driving
systems that use a combination of sensors, computing, and
software to safely perceive their environment and execute
driving tasks.
Autonomous driving offers a range of benefits. One of
the most significant advantages is the potential to improve
road safety by reducing vehicle collisions, many of which are
caused by human error. Autonomous vehicles are designed
to follow traffic laws, monitor blind spots, and detect dangers
faster than human drivers.
Autonomous vehicles also have the potential to deliver
freedom of mobility for people who are unable to drive by
expanding access to transportation options. They can navigate
traffic jams and complex urban environments efficiently, which
can help reduce traffic congestion and lower emissions —
particularly as the transportation industry moves away from
internal combustion engines and toward electric vehicles.
