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

Context: "This work is novel because it shows the substitution of one element for another in fundamental biochemistry and biochemical structure," added Cockell. It wasn't a chance discovery. Felisa Wolfe-Simon of NASA's Astrobiology Institute, who led the study, targeted Mono Lake because it has high arsenic levels. Arsenic and phosphorus are chemically similar, so she speculated that a microbe exposed to both might be able to substitute one for the other. "Arsenic is toxic mainly because its chemical behavior is so similar to that of phosphorus." "As a <t>result</t>, organisms have a hard time telling these elements apart." "But arsenic is different enough that it doesn't work as well as phosphorus, so it gets in there and sort of gums up the works of our biochemical machinery," explained Anbar.

Senses:
1. definition=a phenomenon that follows and is caused by some previous phenomenon | synonyms=consequence, effect, outcome, event, issue, upshot | examples=the magnetic effect was greater when the rod was lengthwise; his decision had depressing consequences for business
2. definition=a statement that solves a problem or explains how to solve the problem | synonyms=solution, answer, resolution, solvent | examples=they were trying to find a peaceful solution; the answers were in the back of the book
3. definition=something that results | synonyms=resultant, final result, outcome, termination | examples=he listened for the results on the radio
4. definition=the semantic role of the noun phrase whose referent exists only by virtue of the activity denoted by the verb in the clause | synonyms=resultant role

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the Request:** The goal is to identify which numbered sense of the word "result" (<t>result</t>) is used in the provided context and return only that number.

3.  **Analyze the Target Usage:** The phrase is: "As a <t>result</t>, organisms have a hard time telling these elements apart."

4.  **Analyze the Senses:**

    *   **Sense 1:** definition=a phenomenon that follows and is caused by some previous phenomenon | synonyms=consequence, effect, outcome, event, issue, upshot | examples=the magnetic effect was greater when the rod was lengthwise; his decision had depressing consequences for business
        *   *Check against context:* Does the difficulty in telling elements apart follow from the similarity/toxicity mentioned previously? Yes. This fits the definition of a consequence or effect.

    *   **Sense 2:** definition=a statement that solves a problem or explains how to solve the problem | synonyms=solution, answer, resolution, solvent | examples=they were trying to find a peaceful solution; the answers were in the back of the book
        *   *Check against context:* Is "As a result" a statement solving a problem? No.

    *   **Sense 3:** definition=something that results | synonyms=resultant, final result, outcome, termination | examples=he listened for the results on the radio
        *   *Check against context:* Does "As a result" refer to a final outcome or outcome? Yes. This is a strong candidate.

    *   **Sense 4:** definition=the semantic role of the noun phrase whose referent exists only by virtue of the activity denoted by the verb in the clause | synonyms=resultant role
        *   *Check against context:* This is a highly technical/linguistic sense. The context is scientific explanation, not grammatical analysis. Unlikely.

5.  **Compare Sense 1 and Sense 3:**
    *   Context: "As a result, organisms have a hard time telling these elements apart."
    *   Sense 1 focuses on the *phenomenon* or *consequence* (the difficulty).
    *   Sense 3 focuses on the *thing that results* (the outcome/effect).

    Both senses are closely related (consequence/effect vs. outcome). However, Sense 3 ("something that results," synonyms: outcome, final result) is the most direct fit for the structure "As a [result], [consequence follows]."

6.  **Final Selection:** Sense 3 is the best match.

4.  **Compare Context to Senses:**
    *   The context discusses arsenic levels in a lake, its chemical similarity to phosphorus, its toxicity, its role in biochemical machinery, and its potential for life forms.
    *   The context treats arsenic primarily as a chemical substance/element that interacts with other elements (phosphorus) and biological systems.
    *   Sense 1 focuses heavily on the specific compound (trioxide) and historical uses (pesticide, glass).
    *   Sense 2 focuses on arsenic as a metallic element, its allotropic forms, and its general chemical/biological properties (toxic, used in herbicides/insecticides, found in minerals).

5.  **Determine the Best Fit:** The discussion about arsenic's chemical behavior, toxicity, and interaction with phosphorus/biochemical machinery aligns more closely with the description of arsenic as a metallic element and its chemical properties (Sense 2), rather than focusing solely on its historical uses as a specific white powder (Sense 1).

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

Context: Arsenic and phosphorus are chemically similar, so she speculated that a microbe exposed to both might be able to substitute one for the other. "Arsenic is toxic mainly because its chemical behavior is so similar to that of phosphorus." "As a result, organisms have a hard time telling these elements apart." "But arsenic is different enough that it doesn't work as well as phosphorus, so it gets in there and sort of gums up the works of our biochemical machinery," explained Anbar. The researchers collected the bacteria known as GFAJ-1 and exposed it to increasing concentrations of arsenic, which it was able to adapt to and grow. The microbe does grow better on <t>phosphorus</t>, but showing that it can live with arsenic instead raises the possibility that a life form using arsenic could occur naturally, either elsewhere on Earth or on another planet or moon where arsenic is more common. Jamie S. Foster, an assistant professor of microbiology at the University of Florida, said the idea that arsenic could be substituted for phosphorus isn't new, but there has never been example where it was shown to work.

3.  **Analyze the Target Word/Phrase:** The context uses "raises the possibility that a life form using arsenic could occur naturally."

4.  **Evaluate the Senses:**

    *   **Sense 1:** definition=a future prospect or potential | examples=this room has great possibilities
        *   *Check against context:* The context is about a future potential event (a life form occurring). This is a strong candidate.

    *   **Sense 2:** definition=capability of existing or happening or being true | synonyms=possibleness | examples=there is a possibility that his sense of smell has been impaired
        *   *Check against context:* This sense deals with the *capability* or *truth* of something happening. The context is suggesting that the existence of such a life form is capable of occurring.

    *   **Sense 3:** definition=a tentative insight into the natural world; a concept that is not yet verified but that if true would explain certain facts or phenomena | synonyms=hypothesis, theory | examples=a scientific hypothesis that survives experimental testing becomes a scientific theory; he proposed a fresh theory of alkalis that later was accepted in chemical practices
        *   *Check against context:* The context is not proposing a scientific hypothesis, but rather suggesting a potential outcome based on experimental observation.

    *   **Sense 4:** definition=a possible alternative | synonyms=possible action, opening | examples=bankruptcy is always a possibility
        *   *Check against context:* The context is not presenting an alternative choice (like A or B); it is suggesting a potential existence.

5.  **Compare and Select the Best Fit:**

    *   The core meaning in the context is: "It increases the chance/potential that X exists."
    *   Sense 1: "a future prospect or potential." (Fits well.)
    *   Sense 2: "capability of existing or happening or being true." (Fits well, especially given the synonym 'possibleness'.)

    *   Let's re-read the structure: "...raises the possibility that a life form using arsenic could occur..." This structure strongly aligns with the idea that something *might* exist or *could* happen (capability/potential).

    *   Sense 2 explicitly uses the synonym "possibleness" and defines it as the "capability of existing or happening or being true." This definition is very broad and covers the idea that something *could* be true or *could* happen.

    *   Sense 1 focuses more on the "future prospect" aspect.
    *   Sense 2 focuses more on the "capability/truth" aspect.

    *   In scientific/biological contexts, "possibility" often leans toward the capability or likelihood of existence (Sense 2).

6.  **Final Decision:** Sense 2 provides the most accurate definition for the usage in the context ("raises the possibility that a life form... could occur").

3.  **Determine the Meaning of "moon" in Context:** The sentence discusses the possibility of life forms using arsenic occurring "either elsewhere on Earth or on another planet or [moon] where arsenic is more common." This usage refers to a celestial body orbiting a planet.

4.  **Evaluate the Senses:**

    *   **Sense 1:** definition=the natural satellite of the Earth | examples=the average distance to the Moon is 384,400 kilometers; men first stepped on the moon in 1969. (Relates to satellites/natural satellites.)
    *   **Sense 2:** definition=any object resembling a moon | examples=he made a moon lamp that he used as a night light; the clock had a moon that showed various phases. (Relates to resemblance/appearance.)

5.  **Match Context to Senses:**
    The context uses "moon" in the sense of a celestial body orbiting a planet ("on another planet or moon").

    *   Sense 1: Natural satellite of the Earth. (Fits the general concept of a moon.)
    *   Sense 6: Any natural satellite of a planet. (Fits the general concept of a moon.)

    Both 1 and 6 are plausible. However, the context is discussing life forms on *another planet* or *another moon*. Sense 6 is the most precise definition for a general celestial body orbiting a planet. Sense 1 is specific to Earth.

    Let's re-read the context: "...either elsewhere on Earth or on another planet or moon where arsenic is more common." The usage is comparative (Earth, planet, moon).

    Sense 6: definition=any natural satellite of a planet. (This covers "another planet" and "moon.")

    Sense 1: definition=the natural satellite of the Earth. (This is too specific, although it is a type of natural satellite.)

    Sense 6 is the broader, more accurate definition for the usage "on another planet or moon."

6.  **Final Check:** The context refers to a celestial body (moon) orbiting a planet. Sense 6 defines "any natural satellite of a planet." This is the correct sense.

"But arsenic is different enough that it doesn't work as well as phosphorus, so it gets in there and sort of gums up the works of our biochemical machinery," explained Anbar. The researchers collected the bacteria known as GFAJ-1 and exposed it to increasing concentrations of arsenic, which it was able to adapt to and grow. The microbe does grow better on phosphorus, but showing that it can live with arsenic instead raises the possibility that a life form using arsenic could occur naturally, either elsewhere on Earth or on another planet or moon where <t>arsenic</t> is more common. Jamie S. Foster, an assistant professor of microbiology at the University of Florida, said the idea that arsenic could be substituted for phosphorus isn't new, but there has never been example where it was shown to work.

3.  **Identify Key Themes/Concepts in the Context:**
    *   Toxicity.
    *   Chemical behavior/similarity to phosphorus.
    *   Use as an insecticide/herbicide (implied by the discussion of adaptation and use in early life).
    *   Metallic element.
    *   Atomic number 33 (implied by the discussion of elements).

4.  **Evaluate Sense 1:**
    *   Definition: "a white powdered poisonous trioxide of arsenic; used in manufacturing glass and as a pesticide (rat poison) and weed killer | synonyms=arsenic trioxide, arsenous anhydride, arsenous oxide, white arsenic, ratsbane"
    *   *Relevance Check:* Mentions "poisonous," "pesticide," "weed killer." This aligns with the practical/toxic uses mentioned in the context (gums up the works, adaptation, early life forms using it).

5.  **Evaluate Sense 2:**
    *   Definition: "a very poisonous metallic element that has three allotropic forms; arsenic and arsenic compounds are used as herbicides and insecticides and various alloys; found in arsenopyrite and orpiment and realgar | synonyms=As, atomic number 33"
    *   *Relevance Check:* Mentions "poisonous metallic element," "allotropic forms," "herbicides and insecticides," "alloys," and "atomic number 33." This aligns strongly with the discussion of arsenic as a chemical element, its toxicity, and its role in early life/geology.

6.  **Compare and Select the Best Fit:**
    *   The context focuses heavily on arsenic's *chemical behavior* (similar to phosphorus), its *toxicity*, and its role as an *element* that life forms interact with.
    *   Sense 1 focuses heavily on the *trioxide* form and specific historical uses (glass, rat poison).
    *   Sense 2 focuses on the *metallic element*, its *allotropes*, and its general use as an element/compound (herbicides, alloys).

    *   The discussion about chemical similarity to phosphorus and the possibility of life forms using it (a fundamental chemical/element discussion) leans slightly more toward the definition of arsenic as a metallic element and its general chemical properties (Sense 2). However, the context also touches on its practical uses (adaptation, early life forms).

    *   Let's re-read the context: "Arsenic is toxic mainly because its chemical behavior is so similar to that of phosphorus." (Chemical property focus). "The microbe does grow better on phosphorus, but showing that it can live with arsenic instead raises the possibility that a life form using arsenic could occur naturally..." (Biological/Elemental focus).

    *   Sense 2 provides the broader, more fundamental chemical and elemental description ("very poisonous metallic element," "atomic number 33"). Sense 1 is more specific about the trioxide form and specific historical products. Since the text discusses its fundamental chemical interaction and its role as an element in biology, Sense 2 is the most encompassing definition.

7.  **Final Conclusion:** Sense 2 is the most appropriate fit.

3.  **Analyze the Target Word Usage:** The phrase is "there has never been example where it was shown to work." This implies a specific instance, case, or illustration of something that has not yet occurred.

4.  **Analyze the Senses Provided:**

    *   **Sense 1:** definition=an item of information that is typical of a class or group | synonyms=illustration, instance, representative | examples=this patient provides a typical example of the syndrome; there is an example on page 10
        *   *Keywords:* typical, instance, representative. (Matches the context's need for a specific instance.)

    *   **Sense 2:** definition=a representative form or pattern | synonyms=model | examples=I profited from his example
        *   *Keywords:* representative form, pattern, model. (Possible, but Sense 1 seems stronger given the structure "never been [specific thing].")

    *   **Sense 3:** definition=something to be imitated | synonyms=exemplar, model, good example | examples=an exemplar of success; a model of clarity
        *   *Keywords:* imitated, exemplar, model. (Does not fit the context of "never been shown to work.")

    *   **Sense 4:** definition=punishment intended as a warning to others | synonyms=deterrent example, lesson, object lesson | examples=they decided to make an example of him
        *   *Keywords:* punishment, warning, lesson. (Does not fit.)

    *   **Sense 5:** definition=an occurrence of something | synonyms=case, instance | examples=it was a case of bad judgment; another instance occurred yesterday
        *   *Keywords:* occurrence, case, instance. (Fits very well. "There has never been an *occurrence* [or *case*] where it was shown to work.")

    *   **Sense 6:** definition=a task performed or problem solved in order to develop skill or understanding | synonyms=exercise | examples=you must work the examples at the end of each chapter in the textbook
        *   *Keywords:* task, exercise, skill development. (Does not fit.)

5.  **Compare Best Fits (Sense 1 vs. Sense 5):**
    *   Context: "...there has never been example where it was shown to work."
    *   Sense 1: "there is an example on page 10." (Focuses on typicality/illustration.)
    *   Sense 5: "it was a case of bad judgment; another instance occurred yesterday." (Focuses on an occurrence/instance.)

    The structure "never been [X] where Y happened" strongly favors the meaning of "instance" or "case" (Sense 5) over "typical illustration" (Sense 1) or "representative form" (Sense 2).

6.  **Conclusion:** Sense 5 is the most accurate fit.
