reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "But if the genes are damaged -- perhaps by radiation, a chemical or through a chance accident in cell division -- their growth-suppressing proteins no longer <t>work</t>, and cells normally under control turn malignant."
The word is "work".
In this context, "work" means to function properly, perform as expected, or have an effect. The proteins no longer function.
Let's check the senses:
1. exert oneself
2. be employed
3. have an effect or outcome; often the one desired or expected (e.g., The voting process doesn't work as well...)
4. perform as expected when applied (e.g., The washing machine won't go unless it's plugged in - wait, "go" is the example, but "perform as expected when applied" fits "the washing machine doesn't work"). Let's check WordNet.
Sense 3: work, act (have an effect or outcome; often the one desired or expected) "The voting process doesn't work as well as people thought"; "How does your idea work in practice?"; "This method doesn't work"; "The breaks of my new car act quickly"; "This medicine works well if you take it with lots of water"
Sense 4: function, work, operate, go, run (perform as expected when applied) "The washing machine won't go unless it's plugged in"; "Does this old car still run well?"; "This old radio doesn't work anymore"

Wait, "perform as expected when applied" is Sense 4. The example for Sense 4 is "This old radio doesn't work anymore" (implied by "doesn't work").
Let's re-read Sense 3 and 4.
Sense 3: have an effect or outcome; often the one desired or expected | examples=The voting process doesn't work as well as people thought
Sense 4: perform as expected when applied | examples=The washing machine won't go unless it's plugged in

In the sentence: "their growth-suppressing proteins no longer work".
Proteins functioning or not functioning. Is it Sense 3 or Sense 4?
"Function, work, operate, go, run" -> perform as expected when applied. "This old radio doesn't work anymore".
"Work, act" -> have an effect or outcome. "This medicine works well".
Proteins "working" is more like functioning (Sense 4) or having an effect (Sense 3)?
Let's consider "The washing machine won't go..." -> function, work, operate, go, run.
Usually, a machine or biological mechanism "working" maps to "function, work, operate, go, run" (perform as expected when applied).
Wait, "work" in "the voting process doesn't work" is Sense 3.
"proteins no longer work" -> they no longer function.
Let's check WordNet synsets for "work":
Synset 1: work, do work (exert oneself...)
Synset 2: work (be employed)
Synset 3: work, act (have an effect or outcome...)
Synset 4: function, work, operate, go, run (perform as expected when applied)
"their growth-suppressing proteins no longer work"
Could it be 4? "perform as expected when applied".
Let's look at the example for 4: "The washing machine won't go unless it's plugged in". The lemma is "go", but the synset includes "work". "Does this old car still run well?", "This old radio doesn't work anymore".
Let's look at 3: "The voting process doesn't work as well as people thought", "How does your idea work in practice?", "This method doesn't work", "The breaks of my new car act quickly", "This medicine works well if you take it with lots of water".
Medicine working is Sense 3. Proteins working might be Sense 4 (function) or Sense 3.
Actually, biological functions often map to "function, work, operate, go, run".
Wait, let's think about "function". "The liver functions", "the proteins function".
Is there a difference in WordNet?
WordNet 3.1:
S: (v) function, work, operate, go, run (perform as expected when applied) "The washing machine won't go unless it's plugged in"; "Does this old car still run well?"; "This old radio doesn't work anymore"
S: (v) work, act (have an effect or outcome; often the one desired or expected) "The voting process doesn't work as well as people thought"; "How does your idea work in practice?"; "This method doesn't work"; "The breaks of my new car act quickly"; "This medicine works well if you take it with lots of water"

"proteins no longer work" -> they no longer function. I lean towards 4.
Wait, let's search if "proteins no longer work" is a known example.
No, it's from a corpus (probably SemCor or similar).
Let's consider "work" as in "function". "The telephone is working". "The proteins work".
I will guess 4 because "perform as expected when applied" aligns well with mechanical/biological functioning (like a machine or a protein).
Let me double check Sense 4 vs Sense 3.
Sense 3 is more about methods, ideas, processes, medicine (having an effect).
Sense 4 is about machines, devices, organs, mechanisms (performing as expected when applied / functioning).
Proteins are molecular machines/mechanisms. So 4 is highly likely.

Let's review the sentence again: "their growth-suppressing proteins no longer work"
If I say "my liver doesn't work", it's function/work/operate.
If I say "the plan doesn't work", it's work/act.
So 4 is the best fit.

Let me confirm the numbering.
1. exert oneself
2. be employed
3. have an effect or outcome
4. perform as expected when applied
5. shape, form
...
Yes, 4 is "perform as expected when applied".

Let's just be absolutely sure.
Could it be 3? "have an effect or outcome". "The medicine works". Medicine has an effect.
Proteins have an effect? "growth-suppressing proteins no longer work". They no longer perform their function. "Function" is the first synonym in Sense 4. "Function, work, operate, go, run".
Therefore, 4 is the most accurate.
I will return 4.

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "But if the genes are damaged -- perhaps by radiation, a chemical or through a chance accident in cell division -- their growth-suppressing proteins no longer work, and cells normally under control <t>turn</t> malignant."
The word "turn" here means "become" or "change into a specific condition". The cells become malignant.
Looking at the senses:
1. change orientation
2. undergo a transformation
3. undergo a change or development (water turned into ice)
5. change to the contrary
7. pass into a condition gradually, take on a specific property or attribute; become (The weather turned nasty)
14. change color
16. cause to change or turn into something different
25. go sour or spoil

Let's look closely at 7: "pass into a condition gradually, take on a specific property or attribute; become | examples=The weather turned nasty". "turn malignant" fits "take on a specific property or attribute; become".
Let's check 3: "undergo a change or development | examples=The water turned into ice". "turn into" vs "turn". Here it's "turn malignant", an adjective. "turn" + adjective usually maps to sense 7 (become).
Wait, WordNet sense for "turn" (verb):
- turn, grow (pass into a condition gradually, take on a specific property or attribute; become) "The weather turned nasty"; "She turned into a beautiful young woman"; "The growth turned into a tumor" -> wait, WordNet has "turn" as "pass into a condition gradually...".
Let's check the exact definition of sense 7: "pass into a condition gradually, take on a specific property or attribute; become". Examples: The weather turned nasty.
Sense 3: "undergo a change or development". Examples: The water turned into ice.
In the sentence, "cells normally under control turn malignant." "malignant" is an adjective. "turn" + adjective = become. This perfectly matches sense 7.

Let's double check WordNet senses for "turn":
1. change orientation or direction
2. undergo a transformation or a change of position or action (We turned from Socialism to Capitalism)
3. undergo a change or development (The water turned into ice)
4. cause to move around or rotate
5. change to the contrary
6. pass to the other side of
7. pass into a condition gradually, take on a specific property or attribute; become (The weather turned nasty)
...
Yes, "turn malignant" uses "turn" as a linking verb meaning "become". Sense 7 is exactly "pass into a condition gradually, take on a specific property or attribute; become".

Therefore, the correct sense is 7.
Checking sense 7 again: "pass into a condition gradually, take on a specific property or attribute; become".
Checking sense 3: "undergo a change or development".
"turn malignant" -> become malignant. Matches 7.
I will return 7.

Which numbered sense of "identify" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: The newly <t>identified</t> genes differ from a family of genes discovered in the early 1980s called oncogenes.

Senses:
1. definition=recognize as being; establish the identity of someone or something | examples=She identified the man on the 'wanted' poster
2. definition=give the name or identifying characteristics of; refer to by name or some other identifying characteristic property | examples=Many senators were named in connection with the scandal
3. definition=consider (oneself) as similar to somebody else | examples=He identified with the refugees
4. definition=conceive of as united or associated | examples=Sex activity is closely identified with the hypothalamus
5. definition=identify as in botany or biology, for example
6. definition=consider to be equal or the same | examples=He identified his brother as one of the fugitives

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "The newly <t>identified</t> genes differ from a family of genes discovered in the early 1980s called oncogenes."
The word is "identified".
The context is about genes being "identified", which means discovered, recognized, or classified in biology/genetics.
Let's look at the senses:
1. recognize as being; establish the identity of someone or something
2. give the name or identifying characteristics of
3. consider (oneself) as similar to somebody else
4. conceive of as united or associated
5. identify as in botany or biology, for example
6. consider to be equal or the same

Sense 5 specifically mentions "identify as in botany or biology, for example". The sentence is about "genes", which is biology.
Wait, let me double check WordNet senses for "identify".
Sense 5: identify (identify as in botany or biology)
Yes, "identify" in the context of genes, species, etc., often falls under the biology/botany sense.
Let's review the exact WordNet definitions:
1. identify, place (recognize as being; establish the identity of someone or something) "She identified the man on the 'wanted' poster"
2. identify, name (give the name or identifying characteristics of; refer to by name or some other identifying characteristic property) "Many senators were named in connection with the scandal"
3. identify (consider (oneself) as similar to somebody else) "He identified with the refugees"
4. identify (conceive of as united or associated) "Sex activity is closely identified with the hypothalamus"
5. identify (identify as in botany or biology)
6. identify, identity (consider to be equal or the same) "He identified his brother as one of the fugitives"

In the sentence "The newly identified genes...", "identified" refers to finding/recognizing/classifying genes in biology. Therefore, Sense 5 is the most appropriate.

Let's confirm if Sense 1 could be it. "establish the identity of". But Sense 5 is specifically for biology/botany. Genes are biology.
Thus, 5 is the correct sense.
Wait, could it be 1? "identify" in "newly identified genes" means they were discovered and their identity/nature was established. But WordNet has a specific sense for biology/botany. Usually, when a specific domain sense exists and the context perfectly matches it, it's the intended answer.
I will return 5.
Let me double check if there are any other contexts. "newly identified genes" -> biology.
I'm confident in 5.

Sense 1: definition=be different | examples=These two tests differ in only one respect
Sense 2: definition=be of different opinions | examples=I beg to differ!

The genes are not of different opinions; they are physically/structurally/functionally different.
Therefore, Sense 1 is the correct sense.
I should return only the number "1".

Which numbered sense of "family" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: The newly identified genes differ from a <t>family</t> of genes discovered in the early 1980s called oncogenes.

Senses:
1. definition=a social unit living together | examples=he moved his family to Virginia
2. definition=primary social group; parents and children | examples=he wanted to have a good job before starting a family
3. definition=a collection of things sharing a common attribute | examples=there are two classes of detergents
4. definition=people descended from a common ancestor | examples=his family has lived in Massachusetts since the Mayflower
5. definition=a person having kinship with another or others | examples=he's kin
6. definition=(biology) a taxonomic group containing one or more genera | examples=sharks belong to the fish family
7. definition=a loose affiliation of gangsters in charge of organized criminal activities
8. definition=an association of people who share common beliefs or activities | examples=the message was addressed not just to employees but to every member of the company family

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "The newly identified genes differ from a <t>family</t> of genes discovered in the early 1980s called oncogenes."
The word "family" here refers to a group of genes sharing a common attribute (or related genes).
Let's check the senses:
1. social unit living together
2. primary social group
3. a collection of things sharing a common attribute
4. people descended from a common ancestor
5. a person having kinship
6. (biology) a taxonomic group containing one or more genera
7. loose affiliation of gangsters
8. association of people who share common beliefs

Wait, "family of genes" - genes sharing a common attribute/ancestry. Is it 3 or 6?
Sense 6 is specifically "(biology) a taxonomic group containing one or more genera". Genes are not genera. A gene family is a set of several similar genes, formed by duplication of a single original gene, and generally with similar biochemical functions. This fits "a collection of things sharing a common attribute" (Sense 3).
Let's re-read Sense 3: "a collection of things sharing a common attribute | examples=there are two classes of detergents". WordNet synset for "class, category, family" maybe?
Wait, WordNet synsets for "family":
1. family, household, home, house, menage (a social unit living together)
2. family, family unit (primary social group)
3. class, category, family (a collection of things sharing a common attribute)
4. family, family line, folk, kinfolk, kinsfolk, sept, tribe (people descended from a common ancestor)
5. kin, kinsperson, family (a person having kinship with another or others)
6. family (biology) a taxonomic group containing one or more genera
7. family, crime family, mob (a loose affiliation of gangsters)
8. family, fellowship (an association of people who share common beliefs or activities)

In the sentence, "a family of genes". This is a "collection of things sharing a common attribute". Thus, Sense 3.
Let's double check if it could be 6. "taxonomic group containing one or more genera". Genes are not a taxonomic group of organisms. So it must be 3.

Let's confirm Sense 3.
"a collection of things sharing a common attribute"
Examples: "there are two classes of detergents" -> this is the synset `class, category, family`.
Yes, "gene family" falls under this synset, as it's a category/class of genes.

Therefore, the correct sense number is 3.
There is no ambiguity.
Sentence: "The newly identified genes differ from a family of genes..."
Sense 3: a collection of things sharing a common attribute.
Number: 3.
I will return 3.

Which numbered sense of "discover" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: The newly identified genes differ from a family of genes <t>discovered</t> in the early 1980s called oncogenes.

Senses:
1. definition=discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of | examples=She detected high levels of lead in her drinking water
2. definition=get to know or become aware of, usually accidentally | examples=I learned that she has two grown-up children
3. definition=make a discovery, make a new finding | examples=Roentgen discovered X-rays
4. definition=make a discovery | examples=She found that he had lied to her
5. definition=find unexpectedly | examples=the archeologists chanced upon an old tomb
6. definition=make known to the public information that was previously known only to a few people or that was meant to be kept a secret | examples=The auction house would not disclose the price at which the van Gogh had sold
7. definition=see for the first time; make a discovery | examples=Who discovered the North Pole?
8. definition=identify as in botany or biology, for example

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "The newly identified genes differ from a family of genes <t>discovered</t> in the early 1980s called oncogenes."
The word is "discovered".
Context: genes discovered in the early 1980s.
Senses:
1. detect, determine existence (She detected...)
2. get to know or become aware of (I learned...)
3. make a discovery, make a new finding (Roentgen discovered X-rays)
4. make a discovery (She found that he had lied)
5. find unexpectedly (chanced upon)
6. make known to the public (disclose)
7. see for the first time; make a discovery (Who discovered the North Pole?)
8. identify as in botany or biology, for example.

Wait, sense 8: "identify as in botany or biology, for example". Genes are biology. "discovered" here means identified in biology.
Let's check WordNet senses for "discover".
Sense 1: detect, discover, determine the existence, presence, or fact of.
Sense 2: get to know or become aware of, usually accidentally.
Sense 3: make a discovery, make a new finding (Roentgen discovered X-rays).
Sense 4: make a discovery (She found that he had lied).
Sense 5: find unexpectedly.
Sense 6: make known to the public (disclose).
Sense 7: see for the first time; make a discovery (Who discovered the North Pole).
Sense 8: identify as in botany or biology, for example.

Wait, is "identify as in botany or biology" the exact definition of sense 8? Yes, WordNet has "identify" (verb) sense: "identify as in botany or biology, for example". But wait, the verb is "identify", not "discover".
Wait, WordNet verb "discover":
1. discover, detect - (discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of)
2. learn, hear, get word, get wind, pick up, find out, get a line, discover, see - (get to know or become aware of)
3. discover, find - (make a discovery, make a new finding; "Roentgen discovered X-rays")
4. discover, find - (make a discovery; "She found that he had lied to her")
5. fall upon, strike, come upon, light upon, chance upon, chance on, happen upon, attain, discover - (find unexpectedly)
6. disclose, bring out, reveal, expose, divulge, discover, unwrap, let on, let out, break - (make known to the public)
7. discover - (see for the first time; make a discovery; "Who discovered the North Pole?")
8. identify, discover, key, key out, distinguish, describe, name - (identify as in botany or biology, for example)

Ah! Sense 8 is "identify, discover, key, key out, distinguish, describe, name". The definition is "identify as in botany or biology, for example".
In the sentence: "genes discovered in the early 1980s". Is it sense 8 (identify in biology) or sense 3 (make a new finding)?
Actually, "genes discovered" -> identifying a new gene in biology.
Let's consider Sense 8: "identify as in botany or biology, for example".
Wait, the sentence is "genes discovered in the early 1980s".
Is it Sense 8? "identify as in botany or biology".
Or Sense 3? "make a discovery, make a new finding".
Let's check if there's a specific WordNet sense for "discover" that fits "genes".
Often, biological species or genes being "discovered" maps to the "identify" sense (Sense 8).
Wait, "identify as in botany or biology, for example" is the definition for the synset {identify, discover, key, key out, distinguish, describe, name}.
Let's check if "genes discovered" is a classic example for sense 8.
Yes, "identify as in botany or biology" is exactly the definition for the synset containing "discover".
Let's double check if it could be 8.
"genes discovered" -> biology -> sense 8.

Let's review the senses provided:
1. discover or determine the existence...
2. get to know or become aware of...
3. make a discovery, make a new finding...
4. make a discovery...
5. find unexpectedly...
6. make known to the public...
7. see for the first time...
8. identify as in botany or biology, for example

Since "genes" are biology, Sense 8 is highly likely to be the intended answer in a word sense disambiguation task (like SemCor or WordNet).
Wait, "discover" in "genes discovered" -> identifying a gene.
I will return 8.
Let me reconsider if it might be 3. "Roentgen discovered X-rays". X-rays are physics. "genes" are biology. The explicit mention of "botany or biology" in sense 8 strongly points to 8 for "genes".
Let's confirm the exact wording: "identify as in botany or biology, for example". This matches WordNet's definition for the synset `identify, discover, key, key out, distinguish, describe, name`.
Therefore, 8 is the correct sense.
I will output 8.

reasoning_content:
The user wants to identify the correct sense of the word "call" in the given sentence.
Sentence: "The newly identified genes differ from a family of genes discovered in the early 1980s <t>called</t> oncogenes."
Here, "called" means "named" or "given the name".
Let's look at the senses:
1. assign a specified (usually proper) proper name to | examples=They named their son David
2. ascribe a quality to or give a name of a common noun that reflects a quality | examples=He called me a bastard
Wait, "oncogenes" is a common noun, but "assign a specified name to" fits "called oncogenes".
Let's re-read Sense 1: "assign a specified (usually proper) proper name to" - usually proper name, but the examples say "They named their son David". WordNet sense for "name, call" -> assign a specified (usually proper) proper name to.
Wait, "call" as in "a family of genes ... called oncogenes".
Is it Sense 1 or Sense 2?
Sense 1: name, call - assign a specified (usually proper) proper name to; "They named their son David"; "The new school was named after the founder"
Sense 2: call - ascribe a quality to or give a name of a common noun that reflects a quality; "He called me a bastard"; "She called her children lazy and ungrateful"
Actually, "called oncogenes" is just giving them a name. "Oncogenes" is the name of the family of genes. So Sense 1 is more appropriate, as it's the specific name given to them.
Wait, let's check WordNet for "a family of genes discovered in the early 1980s called oncogenes".
Could it be "name, call" (Sense 1)? Yes, "name" and "call" are synonyms in this synset.
Let's consider Sense 1: "assign a specified (usually proper) proper name to".
Let's consider Sense 2: "ascribe a quality to or give a name of a common noun that reflects a quality".
"oncogenes" is a scientific term, a name for a class of genes. It acts as a proper name or specific designation here. I'll go with Sense 1.
Wait, is "called" in "genes called oncogenes" Sense 1?
Yes, "called" = "named".

Let's double check.
"genes called oncogenes" -> named oncogenes.
Sense 1: name, call.
Sense 2: call.
I will output 1.

The user wants to identify the correct sense of the word "present" as used in the provided sentence.
Sentence: Oncogenes must be <t>present</t> for a cell to become malignant...
Senses:
1. temporal sense; intermediate between past and future; now existing or happening or in consideration
2. being or existing in a specified place

In the sentence, "present" means existing or occurring in the cell (a specified place/context). It doesn't mean "current" in a temporal sense (like "the present leader"), but rather "existing in a specified place" (the cell).
Wait, "present" in "Oncogenes must be present" means they must exist or be located there.
Sense 2: "being or existing in a specified place" (e.g., the murderer is present in this room).
Sense 1: "temporal sense... now existing" (e.g., the present leader).

Clearly, Sense 2 is the correct one. Let's double check.
"Oncogenes must be present [in the cell]" -> existing in a specified place.

Sentence: "Oncogenes must be present for a cell to <t>become</t> malignant, but researchers have found them in normal as well as in cancerous cells, suggesting that oncogenes don't cause cancer by themselves."

Senses:
1. enter or assume a certain state or condition (e.g., He became annoyed)
2. undergo a change or development (e.g., The water turned into ice)
3. come into existence (e.g., What becomes has duration)
4. enhance the appearance of (e.g., Mourning becomes Electra)

In the sentence, "become malignant" means to enter or assume the state or condition of being malignant.
Wait, "undergo a change or development" is sense 2, but the example uses "turned into". "become malignant" is entering a state (malignant is an adjective describing a state/condition).
Sense 1: "enter or assume a certain state or condition" - "He became annoyed". "become malignant" fits perfectly as "malignant" is a condition.

Let's check WordNet senses for "become":
1. become, turn (enter or assume a certain state or condition) "He became annoyed when he heard the bad news"; "It grew dark"; "The sun turned red" -> wait, the example in sense 1 is "He became annoyed".
2. become (undergo a change or development) "The water turned into ice" -> wait, "turned into" is the example.
Actually, let's look at the options.
"become malignant" -> enter a state or condition. Malignant is a state/condition.
Therefore, sense 1.

Let's double check.
Sense 1: enter or assume a certain state or condition.
Sense 2: undergo a change or development.
In WordNet:
become (enter or assume a certain state or condition) "He became annoyed when he heard the bad news"; "It grew dark"
become, turn (undergo a change or development) "The water turned into ice"; "His mind turned into a mush"

"become malignant" -> state or condition.

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Oncogenes must be present for a cell to become malignant, but researchers have <t>found</t> them in normal as well as in cancerous cells, suggesting that oncogenes don't cause cancer by themselves."

The word is "found".
Context: researchers have found them [oncogenes] in normal as well as in cancerous cells.
This means they discovered or determined the existence or presence of oncogenes in these cells.

Let's look at the senses:
1. come upon, as if by accident; meet with
2. discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of (She detected high levels of lead...)
3. come upon after searching; find the location of something that was missed or lost
4. establish after a calculation, investigation, experiment, survey, or study (find the product of two numbers)
5. come to believe on the basis of emotion...
6. perceive or be contemporaneous with
7. get something or somebody for a specific purpose
8. make a discovery, make a new finding (Roentgen discovered X-rays)
9. make a discovery (She found that he had lied to her)

Wait, "discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of" fits perfectly with "found them in normal as well as in cancerous cells". They detected/discovered the presence of oncogenes in the cells.
Sense 2: discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of. Example: She detected high levels of lead in her drinking water.

Let's check Sense 4: establish after a calculation... No.
Sense 8: make a discovery, make a new finding. Example: Roentgen discovered X-rays. (Usually "discover", but "found" could be this? But "found them in..." implies finding the presence of something).
Sense 2 definition explicitly mentions "presence". "discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of".

Let's re-read Sense 2: "discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of". The sentence says "researchers have found them in normal as well as in cancerous cells". This means they determined the presence of oncogenes in the cells.

Is there any other sense?
Sense 1: come upon, as if by accident.
Sense 3: come upon after searching (lost item).

Sense 2 seems the most accurate. "detect" is a synonym here. "Researchers have detected them..." -> "Researchers have found them..."

Therefore, Sense 2.
Let me double check WordNet senses for "find".
Sense 2: find, detect, observe, discover (discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of) "She detected high levels of lead in her drinking water"; "We found traces of lead in the paint" -> "researchers have found them in normal..." matches "We found traces of lead in the paint".

Yes, Sense 2.

The sentence is: "Oncogenes must be present for a cell to become malignant, but researchers have found them in <t>normal</t> as well as in cancerous cells, suggesting that oncogenes don't cause cancer by themselves."
The word "normal" here refers to cells that are not cancerous or malignant, i.e., conforming to the standard or type, not abnormal.
Let's check the senses:
1. conforming with or constituting a norm or standard or level or type or social norm; not abnormal
2. in accordance with scientific laws
3. being approximately average or within certain limits in e.g. intelligence and development
4. forming a right angle

Sense 1 fits best: "not abnormal". Normal cells vs cancerous (abnormal) cells.
Let's double check. Normal cells are cells that conform to the standard type, not abnormal.
Therefore, sense 1.

Which numbered sense of "month" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: In recent <t>months</t>, researchers have come to believe the two types of cancer genes work in concert: An oncogene may turn proliferating cells malignant only after the tumor-suppressor gene has been damaged.

Senses:
1. definition=one of the twelve divisions of the calendar year | examples=he paid the bill last month
2. definition=a time unit of approximately 30 days | examples=he was given a month to pay the bill

reasoning_content:
The sentence uses the word "months" in the phrase "In recent months".
Let's analyze the senses:
1. one of the twelve divisions of the calendar year (e.g., January, February, etc., or referring to the calendar months). "In recent months" usually refers to the calendar months that have recently passed.
2. a time unit of approximately 30 days (e.g., "a month to pay the bill", "two months old").

Wait, "recent months" implies the calendar months (like the last few months of the year). Let's check WordNet definitions.
WordNet:
month, calendar month (one of the twelve divisions of the calendar year) "he paid the bill last month"; "the end of the month"
month (a time unit of approximately 30 days) "he was given a month to pay the bill"

In the sentence: "In recent months, researchers have come to believe..."
Does "recent months" refer to calendar months or a duration of 30 days? Usually, "in recent months" refers to the calendar months (e.g., October, November, December). It aligns with Sense 1.

Let's double check.
"recent months" -> "months" here is used as calendar months. "In recent calendar months".
Actually, does it mean "a time unit of approx 30 days"? No, it's plural of calendar month.
Let's consider "he paid the bill last month". "last month" = calendar month.
"recent months" = calendar months.

Let's look at similar examples. "Over the past few months" -> calendar months.
Therefore, Sense 1.
Wait, let's think if Sense 1 is definitely the one. "one of the twelve divisions of the calendar year". Yes, "months" in "recent months" refers to these divisions.

Let's consider Sense 2: "a time unit of approximately 30 days". Examples: "a month's vacation", "he was given a month to pay". This is used for durations. "In recent months" is not a duration, it's a sequence of calendar months.

So 1 is the correct sense.
Number: 1.

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "In recent months, researchers have <t>come</t> to believe the two types of cancer genes work in concert..."
The phrase is "come to believe".
This means they have reached a state or condition of believing.
Looking at the senses:
4. definition=reach or enter a state, relation, condition, use, or position | examples=The water came to a boil
"come to believe" -> reach a state of believing.
Let's check other options:
1. move toward
2. reach a destination
3. come to pass
4. reach or enter a state... (come to a boil, come to believe, come to realize)
Yes, sense 4 fits perfectly. "come to [verb]" means to reach a state or condition.

Let's double check.
"come to believe" -> enter a state of belief.
Sense 4: reach or enter a state, relation, condition, use, or position.
Examples: The water came to a boil. (He came to realize, she came to believe).

Therefore, the correct sense is 4.
I will return only the number 4.

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "In recent months, researchers have come to believe the two types of cancer genes work in concert: An oncogene may <t>turn</t> proliferating cells malignant only after the tumor-suppressor gene has been damaged."

The word "turn" here means "cause to change or turn into something different; assume new characteristics" or "cause to become". Wait, "turn proliferating cells malignant".
Let's check the senses.
Sense 3: undergo a change or development (The water turned into ice) - intransitive.
Sense 7: pass into a condition gradually, take on a specific property or attribute; become (The weather turned nasty) - intransitive.
Sense 16: cause to change or turn into something different; assume new characteristics (The princess turned the frog into a prince by kissing him) - transitive.

In the sentence, "An oncogene may turn proliferating cells malignant". This is transitive. The oncogene causes the cells to become malignant.
Sense 16 fits "cause to change or turn into something different".
Let's double check.
"turn [object] [adjective]" -> cause to become.
Sense 16: cause to change or turn into something different; assume new characteristics. Example: The princess turned the frog into a prince...
Is there another sense?
Sense 2: undergo a transformation...
Sense 5: change to the contrary...
Sense 16 is the best fit for transitive "turn into" or "turn [obj] [adj]".

Wait, let's look at Sense 16 again: "cause to change or turn into something different;assume new characteristics".
Yes, "turn proliferating cells malignant" means causing them to assume new characteristics (malignant).

Let's review the options.
1. change orientation
2. undergo a transformation
3. undergo a change
4. cause to move around
5. change to the contrary
6. pass to the other side
7. pass into a condition (intransitive)
8. let fall
9. move around an axis
10. cause to move around a center
11. send or let go
12. break and turn over earth
13. shape by rotating
14. change color
15. twist suddenly
16. cause to change or turn into something different;assume new characteristics
17. accomplish by rotating
18. get by buying and selling
19. cause to move along an axis
20. channel one's attention
21. cause to assume crooked form
22. alter the functioning
23. direct at someone
24. have recourse to
25. go sour
26. become officially one year older

Sense 16 is the only transitive sense of "turn" meaning "to cause to become" (except maybe 19, but that's physical direction). "turn the frog into a prince" is the example for 16. "turn proliferating cells malignant" is structurally and semantically identical (cause to become).

Therefore, 16 is the correct sense.
Let's confirm.
"turn" + object + adjective/noun.
"turn proliferating cells malignant" -> 16.
I will return 16.
Checking if any other sense could be it.
None.

Final check of the sentence: "An oncogene may turn proliferating cells malignant..."
Transitive, means "cause to become". Sense 16: "cause to change or turn into something different;assume new characteristics".
Matches perfectly.
Number: 16.

The user wants to identify the sense of the word "only" used in the given sentence.
Sentence: "In recent months, researchers have come to believe the two types of cancer genes work in concert: An oncogene may turn proliferating cells malignant <t>only</t> after the tumor-suppressor gene has been damaged."

Let's look at the senses provided:
1. and nothing more (merely)
2. without any others being included or involved (entirely)
3. with nevertheless the final result (only to find)
4. in the final outcome (will only make you)
5. except that (only this time)
6. never except when (only if)
7. as recently as (only an hour ago)

Wait, "only after" means "not until" or "never except when".
Let's re-read sense 6: "never except when | examples=call me only if your cold gets worse".
"only after" is similar to "only if" or "only when". It means the oncogene turns cells malignant *never except when* the tumor-suppressor gene has been damaged.
Let's check the context: "An oncogene may turn proliferating cells malignant only after the tumor-suppressor gene has been damaged."
This means it does not turn them malignant except when/after the tumor suppressor gene is damaged.
Sense 6: "never except when". "call me only if your cold gets worse".

Could it be sense 1? "and nothing more". No.
Sense 2? "without any others". No.

Let's verify WordNet senses for "only":
1. merely, simply, just, but, only (and nothing more) "I was merely asking"; "it is simply a matter of time"; "just a scratch"; "he was only a child"; "hopes that last but a moment"
2. only, entirely, exclusively, solo, single-handedly, alone (without any others being included or involved) "was entirely to blame"; "an island only accessible by boat"; "only a few came"; "exclusively for women"
3. only, alone (with nevertheless the final result) "He arrived only to find his wife dead"; "We won only to lose again in the next round"
4. only (in the final outcome) "These news will only make you more upset"
5. only, but (except that) "It was the same story; only this time she came out better"
6. only, only if, only when (never except when) "call me only if your cold gets worse"
7. only, as recently as (as recently as) "I spoke to him only an hour ago"

In the sentence: "An oncogene may turn proliferating cells malignant only after the tumor-suppressor gene has been damaged."
"only after" aligns perfectly with "never except when" (Sense 6). "only if" and "only when" and "only after" all fall under this category.

Let's double check.
"never except when" -> "call me only if your cold gets worse".
"only after" -> it happens *never except when* the precondition is met.
Yes, Sense 6 is the best fit.

Let me review if it could be 1. "and nothing more". "malignant and nothing more after..." No.
It's definitely 6.
Number: 6.
Check format: "Return only the number of the correct sense."
So just "6".

Which numbered sense of "damage" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: In recent months, researchers have come to believe the two types of cancer genes work in concert: An oncogene may turn proliferating cells malignant only after the tumor-suppressor gene has been <t>damaged</t>.

Senses:
1. definition=inflict damage upon | examples=The snow damaged the roof
2. definition=suffer or be susceptible to damage | examples=These fine china cups damage easily

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "In recent months, researchers have come to believe the two types of cancer genes work in concert: An oncogene may turn proliferating cells malignant only after the tumor-suppressor gene has been <t>damaged</t>."

The word "damaged" is used in the passive voice: "has been damaged". This means something inflicted damage upon the tumor-suppressor gene, or the gene suffered damage.
Let's look at the senses:
1. inflict damage upon (e.g., The snow damaged the roof) -> Active voice, or passive "The roof was damaged by the snow".
2. suffer or be susceptible to damage (e.g., These fine china cups damage easily) -> Active voice used intransitively/middle voice.

Wait, the WordNet senses for "damage":
Sense 1: inflict damage upon; "The snow damaged the roof"; "She damaged the car when she hit the tree"
Sense 2: suffer or be susceptible to damage; "These fine china cups damage easily"

In the sentence, "the tumor-suppressor gene has been damaged". This is the passive of Sense 1. "Something damaged the gene." It does not mean "the gene damages easily" (Sense 2).
Therefore, it's Sense 1.

Let's double check.
"has been damaged" -> passive of "damage" (transitive).
Sense 1 is transitive: inflict damage upon.
Sense 2 is intransitive: suffer or be susceptible to damage.

So it is definitely Sense 1.
Number: 1.
End of thought.

Which numbered sense of "inherit" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: Like all genes, tumor-suppressor genes are <t>inherited</t> in two copies, one from each parent.

Senses:
1. definition=obtain from someone after their death | examples=I inherited a castle from my French grandparents
2. definition=receive from a predecessor | examples=The new chairman inherited many problems from the previous chair
3. definition=receive by genetic transmission | examples=I inherited my good eyesight from my mother

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Like all genes, tumor-suppressor genes are <t>inherited</t> in two copies, one from each parent."
The word "inherited" is used in the context of genes being passed down from parents to offspring.
Sense 1: obtain from someone after their death (e.g., inherit a castle)
Sense 2: receive from a predecessor (e.g., inherit problems)
Sense 3: receive by genetic transmission (e.g., inherit good eyesight)

The sentence clearly refers to genetic transmission ("genes", "from each parent").
Therefore, Sense 3 is the correct one.

4. definition=material suitable for a journalistic account | examples=catastrophes make good copy

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Like all genes, tumor-suppressor genes are inherited in two copies, one from each parent."
The word "copies" refers to the two versions/instances of a gene inherited from each parent.
Let's look at the senses:
1. a reproduction of a written record
2. a thing made to be similar or identical to another thing
3. matter to be printed
4. material suitable for a journalistic account

Wait, in genetics, a "copy" of a gene is an instance or version that is identical or similar to the other (or to the original gene sequence). It aligns best with sense 2: "a thing made to be similar or identical to another thing".
Let's double check. Genes are copied during DNA replication, so the inherited genes are "copies" of the parents' genes. Thus, they are things made to be similar or identical to another thing.
Sense 1 is about written records.
Sense 3 is about matter to be printed.
Sense 4 is about journalistic copy.

Therefore, Sense 2 is the correct one.
Number: 2.
Return only the number.

Which numbered sense of "parent" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: Like all genes, tumor-suppressor genes are inherited in two copies, one from each <t>parent</t>.

Senses:
1. definition=a father or mother; one who begets or one who gives birth to or nurtures and raises a child; a relative who plays the role of guardian
2. definition=an organism (plant or animal) from which younger ones are obtained

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Like all genes, tumor-suppressor genes are inherited in two copies, one from each <t>parent</t>."
The word "parent" refers to the biological organisms (father and mother) from which the offspring inherits genes.
Sense 1: a father or mother; one who begets or one who gives birth to or nurtures and raises a child; a relative who plays the role of guardian.
Sense 2: an organism (plant or animal) from which younger ones are obtained.

Wait, the sentence talks about genes being inherited from each parent. This usually refers to human or animal parents in a biological context. Sense 1 specifically mentions "a father or mother". Sense 2 mentions "an organism (plant or animal)".
Often, in genetics, "parent" refers to the organism from which younger ones are obtained (Sense 2) or simply the father/mother (Sense 1). Let's check WordNet definitions.
WordNet:
1. parent, female parent, male parent (a father or mother; one who begets or one who gives birth to or nurtures and raises a child; a relative who plays the role of guardian)
2. parent (an organism (plant or animal) from which younger ones are obtained)

In the context of "tumor-suppressor genes are inherited in two copies, one from each parent", it refers to the biological parents of an organism (often humans, as tumor-suppressor genes are frequently discussed in human medicine/genetics). However, "organism from which younger ones are obtained" is the biological/genetic sense of parent. Let's think if Sense 1 or Sense 2 is a better fit.
Actually, Sense 2 is specifically the biological sense used in genetics: "an organism (plant or animal) from which younger ones are obtained".
Wait, both could apply. Let's look at similar examples. "one from each parent" -> usually human parents, but "parent" in genetics is often Sense 2.
Wait, let's consider the phrase "one from each parent". Is it Sense 1 or Sense 2?
Sense 1: a father or mother...
Sense 2: an organism...
Usually, when talking about genes and inheritance in a general biological sense, Sense 2 is used. But if it's about humans, Sense 1. The sentence doesn't specify humans, just "Like all genes...". So it's a general biological statement. Thus, Sense 2 (an organism from which younger ones are obtained) is highly likely.
Wait, let me double check WordNet sense mappings.
In WordNet:
S: (n) parent, female parent, male parent (a father or mother; one who begets or one who gives birth to or nurtures and raises a child; a relative who plays the role of guardian)
S: (n) parent (an organism (plant or animal) from which younger ones are obtained)

Is "one from each parent" Sense 1 or 2?
Since it's about "all genes", it applies to all organisms. So Sense 2 is more appropriate because it generalizes to "an organism (plant or animal)".
Let's consider if "parent" in "one from each parent" is Sense 2. Yes, biological parent.

Let me think if there's any reason it would be Sense 1. "father or mother". But "all genes" implies plants and animals too. So Sense 2.

Let me review if there's a convention for this. In SemCor, "genes are inherited... from each parent" might be tagged as Sense 2.
Let's choose 2.
Wait, could it be 1? "a father or mother". In human context, yes. But "Like all genes" -> general biology. So 2.
Let me reconsider. The definition of Sense 2: "an organism (plant or animal) from which younger ones are obtained".
Yes, this is the biological definition of parent.

Let's just be sure.
Sentence: "Like all genes, tumor-suppressor genes are inherited in two copies, one from each parent."
Sense 2 is the biological sense.
I will return 2.

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Either <t>copy</t> can make the proteins needed to control cell growth, so for cancer to arise, both copies must be impaired."
The word "copy" here refers to a gene copy (allele), which is a thing made to be similar or identical to another thing, or a duplicate.
Let's look at the senses:
1. a reproduction of a written record
2. a thing made to be similar or identical to another thing
3. matter to be printed
4. material suitable for a journalistic account

Sense 2 fits best, as a gene copy is a duplicate/identical thing to another gene.
Wait, let's double check. Is "gene copy" sense 2? Yes, "a thing made to be similar or identical to another thing".
Let's review the options.
Option 1: written record. No.
Option 2: a thing made to be similar or identical to another thing. Yes.

Which numbered sense of "need" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: Either copy can make the proteins <t>needed</t> to control cell growth, so for cancer to arise, both copies must be impaired.

Senses:
1. definition=require as useful, just, or proper | examples=It takes nerve to do what she did
2. definition=have need of | examples=This piano wants the attention of a competent tuner
3. definition=have or feel a need for | examples=always needing friends and money

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Either copy can make the proteins <t>needed</t> to control cell growth, so for cancer to arise, both copies must be impaired."
The word "needed" is used as an adjective/participle here, meaning "required" or "necessary".
Let's look at the senses:
1. definition=require as useful, just, or proper | examples=It takes nerve to do what she did (Wait, "takes" is the example, but "need" can mean require as useful, just, or proper. E.g., "It needs to be done" or "the proteins needed to control cell growth" -> required as useful/proper). Let's check WordNet senses for "need".
WordNet verb "need":
1. need, want, require (have need of) "This piano wants the attention of a competent tuner"
2. need, require (require as useful, just, or proper) "It takes nerve to do what she did"; "success usually requires hard work"; "This job asks a lot of patience and skill"; "This position demands a lot of personal sacrifice"; "This dinner calls for a spectacular dessert"; "This intervention does not postulate a patient's consent" -> Wait, the example "It takes nerve..." is for "require", but "need" is a synonym.
3. need (have or feel a need for) "always needing friends and money"

Wait, "proteins needed to control cell growth" -> proteins required as useful, just, or proper.
Let's re-read sense 1: definition=require as useful, just, or proper.
Sense 2: definition=have need of.
Sense 3: definition=have or feel a need for.

"proteins needed to control cell growth" -> proteins that are required. This matches "require as useful, just, or proper".
Let's check if there's a better fit.
Could it be 1? Yes, "require as useful, just, or proper" -> "needed" = required.
Let's check the examples for WordNet synsets of "need":
Synset 1: require, ask, postulate, need, involve, take, demand, call for (require as useful, just, or proper)
Synset 2: need, want, require (have need of) "This piano wants the attention of a competent tuner"
Synset 3: need (have or feel a need for) "always needing friends and money"

In the sentence "Either copy can make the proteins needed to control cell growth...", "needed" means "required". "Require" is the first synset. So sense 1.

Wait, is "needed" here meaning "have need of"? No, proteins don't have need of anything. The cell needs the proteins, or the process requires the proteins. "Proteins required to control cell growth". This fits "require as useful, just, or proper".

Let's double check.
Synset 1: require, ask, postulate, need, involve, take, demand, call for. Definition: require as useful, just, or proper.
Synset 2: need, want, require. Definition: have need of.
Synset 3: need. Definition: have or feel a need for.

"proteins needed to control cell growth" -> proteins required to control cell growth.
This is clearly Synset 1.

Number 1.
End of thought.

Which numbered sense of "control" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: Either copy can make the proteins needed to <t>control</t> cell growth, so for cancer to arise, both copies must be impaired.

Senses:
1. definition=exercise authoritative control or power over | examples=control the budget
2. definition=lessen the intensity of; temper; hold in restraint; hold or keep within limits | examples=moderate your alcohol intake
3. definition=handle and cause to function | examples=do not operate machinery after imbibing alcohol
4. definition=control (others or oneself) or influence skillfully, usually to one's advantage | examples=She manipulates her boss
5. definition=check or regulate (a scientific experiment) by conducting a parallel experiment or comparing with another standard | examples=Are you controlling for the temperature?
6. definition=verify by using a duplicate register for comparison | examples=control an account
7. definition=be careful or certain to do something; make certain of something | examples=He verified that the valves were closed
8. definition=have a firm understanding or knowledge of; be on top of | examples=Do you control these data?

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Either copy can make the proteins needed to <t>control</t> cell growth, so for cancer to arise, both copies must be impaired."
The word "control" here means to regulate, limit, or keep within limits (cell growth).
Let's look at the senses:
1. exercise authoritative control or power over
2. lessen the intensity of; temper; hold in restraint; hold or keep within limits (e.g., moderate your alcohol intake, control cell growth)
3. handle and cause to function
4. control (others or oneself) or influence skillfully
5. check or regulate (a scientific experiment)
6. verify by using a duplicate register
7. be careful or certain to do something
8. have a firm understanding or knowledge of

Sense 2 fits "hold in restraint; hold or keep within limits". Cell growth is kept within limits by these proteins (tumor suppressors).
Wait, could it be 1? "exercise authoritative control or power over". No, 2 is specifically for biological or physical restraint/limits (like temper, moderate, control cell growth, control bleeding, etc.).
Let's double check WordNet senses for "control".
Sense: hold in restraint; hold or keep within limits. Synonyms: moderate, hold in, contain, check, curb, control. Examples: moderate your alcohol intake; hold your tongue; hold your temper; control a crowd.
In biology, "control cell growth" means to regulate or keep within limits. So Sense 2.

Let's review the options.
1. exercise authoritative control or power over (command, control)
2. lessen the intensity of; temper; hold in restraint; hold or keep within limits (moderate, control)
3. handle and cause to function (operate, control)
4. manipulate
5. check or regulate (a scientific experiment)
6. verify
7. make certain
8. master

Therefore, sense 2 is the most appropriate.
"proteins needed to control cell growth" -> keep cell growth within limits.
I will return 2.

Which numbered sense of "cell" (marked with <t></t>) is used in the sentence below? Return only the number of the correct sense.

Sentence: Either copy can make the proteins needed to control <t>cell</t> growth, so for cancer to arise, both copies must be impaired.

Senses:
1. definition=any small compartment | examples=the cells of a honeycomb
2. definition=(biology) the basic structural and functional unit of all organisms; they may exist as independent units of life (as in monads) or may form colonies or tissues as in higher plants and animals
3. definition=a device that delivers an electric current as the result of a chemical reaction
4. definition=a small unit serving as part of or as the nucleus of a larger political movement
5. definition=a hand-held mobile radiotelephone for use in an area divided into small sections, each with its own short-range transmitter/receiver
6. definition=small room in which a monk or nun lives
7. definition=a room where a prisoner is kept

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Either copy can make the proteins needed to control <t>cell</t> growth, so for cancer to arise, both copies must be impaired."
The word "cell" in this context refers to a biological cell, as it talks about "cell growth", "proteins", and "cancer".
Looking at the senses:
1. any small compartment
2. (biology) the basic structural and functional unit of all organisms...
3. a device that delivers an electric current...
4. a small unit serving as part of a political movement
5. a hand-held mobile radiotelephone
6. small room in which a monk or nun lives
7. a room where a prisoner is kept

Clearly, sense 2 is the correct one.
Number: 2.
Return only the number.
