6. definition=reliable in operation or effect | examples=a quick and certain remedy
7. definition=exercising or taking care great enough to bring assurance | examples=be certain to disconnect the iron when you are through

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the target word and context:** The word is "certain," and the context is "If both copies of a <t>certain</t> gene were knocked out, benign polyps would develop."

2.  **Determine the meaning of "certain" in this specific context:**
    *   The sentence is discussing a gene.
    *   The phrase "a certain gene" implies that this gene is a specific, identifiable gene that is relevant to the biological process (the development of polyps when knocked out).
    *   It doesn't mean the gene is guaranteed to cause polyps (that would be sense 4).
    *   It doesn't mean the gene is absolutely proven to exist (that would be sense 3, but usually applied to facts).
    *   It means the gene is a specific, known entity within the scope of the discussion.

3.  **Evaluate the provided senses against the determined meaning:**

    *   **1. definition=definite but not specified or identified | examples=set aside a certain sum each week**
        *   *Fit:* This sense means "a specific, but unnamed/unspecified" item. "A certain gene" fits this perfectly. The gene is known to the speaker/writer, but the name isn't given in this sentence.

    *   **2. definition=having or feeling no doubt or uncertainty; confident and assured | examples=felt certain of success**
        *   *Fit:* No. This is about confidence/belief.

    *   **3. definition=established beyond doubt or question; definitely known | examples=what is certain is that every effect must have a cause**
        *   *Fit:* Possible, but less precise than 1. While the gene might be "definitely known," the usage "a certain gene" usually points to a specific instance (Sense 1), not the absolute certainty of its existence as a universal truth (Sense 3).

    *   **4. definition=certain to occur; destined or inevitable; ; ; - Benjamin Franklin | examples=he was certain to fail**
        *   *Fit:* No. This is about inevitability.

    *   **5. definition=established irrevocably | examples=his fate is sealed**
        *   *Fit:* No. This is about finality/permanence.

    *   **6. definition=reliable in operation or effect | examples=a quick and certain remedy**
        *   *Fit:* No. This is about reliability/effectiveness.

    *   **7. definition=exercising or taking care great enough to bring assurance | examples=be certain to disconnect the iron when you are through**
        *   *Fit:* No. This is an imperative/adverbial use related to assurance.

4.  **Conclusion:** The usage "a certain gene" refers to a specific, identifiable, but unnamed entity, matching Sense 1.

Sentence: If both copies of a <t>second</t> gene were then deleted, the polyps would progress to malignancy.

Senses:
1. definition=coming next after the first in position in space or time or degree or magnitude
2. definition=a part or voice or instrument or orchestra section lower in pitch than or subordinate to the first | examples=second flute

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the request:** The user wants to know which numbered sense of the word "second" is used in the provided sentence. The output must be only the number.

2.  **Analyze the sentence:** "If both copies of a <t>second</t> gene were then deleted, the polyps would progress to malignancy."

3.  **Analyze the context of "second gene":**
    *   The sentence refers to "copies of a second gene."
    *   In genetics, when discussing gene copies (alleles or loci), "second" refers to the gene that is not the primary or first one mentioned/considered, but rather the one that follows it in a set or pair.
    *   The context implies a sequence or a pair (e.g., Gene 1 and Gene 2).

4.  **Analyze the senses provided:**
    *   Sense 1: definition=coming next after the first in position in space or time or degree or magnitude. (Sequential order)
    *   Sense 2: definition=a part or voice or instrument or orchestra section lower in pitch than or subordinate to the first | examples=second flute. (Lower rank/pitch)

5.  **Match the context to the senses:**
    *   "Second gene" refers to the gene that comes after the first gene (Gene 1 $\rightarrow$ Gene 2). This is a matter of sequential order or position in a pair.
    *   Sense 1 (coming next after the first in position...) perfectly matches this meaning.
    *   Sense 2 (lower pitch/subordinate part) does not apply to genes.

6.  **Conclusion:** Sense 1 is the correct sense.

7.  **Format the output:** Return only the number.

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

Sentence: If both copies of a second gene were <t>then</t> deleted, the polyps would progress to malignancy.

Senses:
1. definition=subsequently or soon afterward (often used as sentence connectors) | examples=then he left
2. definition=in that case or as a consequence | examples=if he didn't take it, then who did?
3. definition=at that time | examples=I was young then

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the sentence:** "If both copies of a second gene were <t>then</t> deleted, the polyps would progress to malignancy."
2.  **Analyze the context of "then":** "Then" follows the conditional clause ("If both copies... were deleted") and introduces the consequence/result ("the polyps would progress to malignancy").
3.  **Evaluate the senses:**
    *   **Sense 1 (subsequently or soon afterward):** This implies a temporal sequence (A happened, *then* B happened). While deletion and progression are sequential, the structure "If A, then B" is primarily about conditionality, not just time.
    *   **Sense 2 (in that case or as a consequence):** This links the condition (deletion) directly to the result (progression). The structure "If [condition], then [consequence]" perfectly matches this meaning.
    *   **Sense 3 (at that time):** This refers to a specific point in time. The sentence is not describing an event happening at a specific past time; it's describing a hypothetical relationship between cause and effect.
4.  **Determine the best fit:** The structure "If [condition], then [consequence]" strongly indicates Sense 2 ("in that case or as a consequence").
5.  **Final Answer Formulation:** Return only the number.

    *   21. expand in the form of a series - No.

4.  **Compare the best candidates (5, 9, 10, 20):**
    *   The cancer *comes into existence* (Sense 5).
    *   The cancer *progresses/evolves* (Sense 10).
    *   The cancer *happens* (Sense 20).

5.  **Select the most precise fit:** When discussing the onset or progression of a biological condition like cancer, "develop" means it is progressing or evolving through a natural process. Sense 10 ("grow, progress, unfold, or evolve through a process of evolution, natural growth, differentiation, or a conducive environment") is the most comprehensive and accurate description of how a disease develops. Sense 5 ("come into existence") is also accurate for the initial onset, but Sense 10 covers the entire process implied by the word.

    *   **Sense 1:** definition=require as useful, just, or proper | examples=It takes nerve to do what she did. (Focuses on necessity, requirement, or suitability.)
    *   **Sense 2:** definition=have need of | examples=This piano wants the attention of a competent tuner. (Focuses on an object/thing requiring something else.)
    *   **Sense 3:** definition=have or feel a need for | examples=always needing friends and money. (Focuses on emotional or physical lack/desire.)

5.  **Match the context to the senses:**
    *   The evidence was *required* (necessary) for the people.
    *   This aligns perfectly with Sense 1: "require as useful, just, or proper."

6.  **Formulate the final answer:** The correct number is 1.

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

Sentence: "It was the confirming evidence we all needed that gene <t>losses</t> were critical to the development of a common tumor, "says Ray White at Howard Hughes Medical Institute in Salt Lake City.

Senses:
1. definition=something that is lost | examples=the car was a total loss
2. definition=gradual decline in amount or activity | examples=weight loss
3. definition=the act of losing someone or something | examples=everyone expected him to win so his loss was a shock
4. definition=the disadvantage that results from losing something | examples=his loss of credibility led to his resignation
5. definition=the experience of losing a loved one | examples=he sympathized on the loss of their grandfather
6. definition=the amount by which the cost of a business exceeds its revenue | examples=the company operated at a loss last year
7. definition=military personnel lost by death or capture
8. definition=euphemistic expressions for death | examples=thousands mourned his passing

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the request:** The user wants to identify which numbered sense of the word "loss" (specifically "losses" in the provided sentence) is used. The output must be *only* the number.

2.  **Analyze the sentence:** "It was the confirming evidence we all needed that gene <t>losses</t> were critical to the development of a common tumor..."

3.  **Determine the context of "gene losses":**
    *   "Gene" refers to segments of DNA/genetic material.
    *   "Losses" refers to the absence or deletion of these genetic segments.
    *   The context is biological/medical (tumor development).

4.  **Evaluate the senses of "loss" against the context:**

    *   1. definition=something that is lost | examples=the car was a total loss (Physical object lost. Doesn't fit genetic material.)
    *   2. definition=gradual decline in amount or activity | examples=weight loss (Decline in quantity/activity. While genetic material can decline, "gene losses" specifically refers to the *absence* of a segment, not a gradual decline in quantity.)
    *   3. definition=the act of losing someone or something | examples=everyone expected him to win so his loss was a shock (The action of losing. Doesn't fit the biological concept of a genetic deletion.)
    *   4. definition=the disadvantage that results from losing something | examples=his loss of credibility led to his resignation (A consequence/disadvantage. Not the biological event itself.)
    *   5. definition=the experience of losing a loved one | examples=he sympathized on the loss of their grandfather (Emotional/personal loss. Irrelevant.)
    *   6. definition=the amount by which the cost of a business exceeds its revenue | examples=the company operated at a loss last year (Financial loss. Irrelevant.)
    *   7. definition=military personnel lost by death or capture (Military context. Irrelevant.)
    *   8. definition=euphemistic expressions for death | examples=thousands mourned his passing (Euphemism. Irrelevant.)

5.  **Re-evaluate the best fit (Self-Correction/Refinement):** None of the provided senses perfectly capture the technical biological meaning ("deletion of genetic material"). However, the biological concept of a "gene loss" is fundamentally about the *absence* or *failure to possess* a specific piece of genetic information.

    *   Let's reconsider Sense 1: "definition=something that is lost | examples=the car was a total loss." In a biological context, a gene loss *is* the genetic material that is missing or lost. This is the closest conceptual match, even if the example provided (car) is non-biological.

    *   Let's reconsider Sense 2: "definition=gradual decline in amount or activity | examples=weight loss." While "gene loss" is often a discrete event (deletion), the overall concept of genetic instability involves a decline or reduction in functional genetic material. However, Sense 1 is a more direct description of the state (the material is gone).

6.  **Conclusion based on provided options:** Since the context is the absence of a specific genetic element, Sense 1 ("something that is lost") is the most appropriate conceptual fit among the choices, representing the physical absence of the gene.

7.  **Final check:** The sentence refers to the physical absence of genes. Sense 1 describes something that is lost.

8.  **Format the output:** Return only the number. (1)

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

Sentence: "It was the confirming evidence we all needed that gene losses were <t>critical</t> to the development of a common tumor, "says Ray White at Howard Hughes Medical Institute in Salt Lake City.

Senses:
1. definition=marked by a tendency to find and call attention to errors and flaws | examples=a critical attitude
2. definition=at or of a point at which a property or phenomenon suffers an abrupt change especially having enough mass to sustain a chain reaction | examples=a critical temperature of water is 100 degrees C--its boiling point at standard atmospheric pressure
3. definition=characterized by careful evaluation and judgment | examples=a critical reading
4. definition=urgently needed; absolutely necessary | examples=a critical element of the plan
5. definition=forming or having the nature of a turning point or crisis | examples=a critical point in the campaign
6. definition=being in or verging on a state of crisis or emergency | examples=a critical shortage of food
7. definition=of or involving or characteristic of critics or criticism | examples=critical acclaim

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the sentence:** "It was the confirming evidence we all needed that gene losses were <t>critical</t> to the development of a common tumor..."
2.  **Analyze the context:** The sentence discusses gene losses and their relationship to the development of a tumor. The phrase "critical to the development" implies that these gene losses were essential or absolutely necessary for the tumor to form.
3.  **Examine the senses of "critical":**
    *   1. marked by a tendency to find and call attention to errors and flaws (e.g., a critical attitude) -> *Does not fit.*
    *   2. at or of a point at which a property or phenomenon suffers an abrupt change (e.g., a critical temperature) -> *Does not fit.*
    *   3. characterized by careful evaluation and judgment (e.g., a critical reading) -> *Does not fit.*
    *   4. urgently needed; absolutely necessary (e.g., a critical element of the plan) -> *Fits perfectly.* Gene losses were *absolutely necessary* for the tumor development.
    *   5. forming or having the nature of a turning point or crisis (e.g., a critical point in the campaign) -> *Possible, but less precise than 4. While the loss might be a turning point, the primary meaning here is necessity.*
    *   6. being in or verging on a state of crisis or emergency (e.g., a critical shortage of food) -> *Does not fit.*
    *   7. of or involving or characteristic of critics or criticism (e.g., critical acclaim) -> *Does not fit.*
4.  **Select the best fit:** Sense 4 ("urgently needed; absolutely necessary") is the most accurate interpretation of "critical to the development."
5.  **Format the output:** Return only the number.

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

Sentence: "It was the confirming evidence we all needed that gene losses were critical to the <t>development</t> of a common tumor, "says Ray White at Howard Hughes Medical Institute in Salt Lake City.

Senses:
1. definition=act of improving by expanding or enlarging or refining | examples=he congratulated them on their development of a plan to meet the emergency
2. definition=a process in which something passes by degrees to a different stage (especially a more advanced or mature stage) | examples=the development of his ideas took many years
3. definition=(biology) the process of an individual organism growing organically; a purely biological unfolding of events involved in an organism changing gradually from a simple to a more complex level | examples=he proposed an indicator of osseous development in children
4. definition=a recent event that has some relevance for the present situation | examples=recent developments in Iraq
5. definition=the act of making some area of land or water more profitable or productive or useful | examples=the development of Alaskan resources
6. definition=a district that has been developed to serve some purpose | examples=such land is practical for small park developments
7. definition=a state in which things are improving; the result of developing (as in the early part of a game of chess) | examples=after he saw the latest development he changed his mind and became a supporter
8. definition=processing a photosensitive material in order to make an image visible | examples=the development and printing of his pictures took only two hours
9. definition=(music) the section of a composition or movement (especially in sonata form) where the major musical themes are developed and elaborated

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the sentence:** "It was the confirming evidence we all needed that gene losses were critical to the <t>development</t> of a common tumor..."
2.  **Identify the context:** The context is biological/medical (gene losses, common tumor).
3.  **Analyze the word "development" in context:** It refers to how the tumor changes or progresses from its initial state.
4.  **Review the senses provided:**
    *   1. Improving/expanding (Plan development) - Not fitting for a tumor's biological change.
    *   2. Process passing by degrees to a different stage (General maturation) - Plausible, but perhaps too general for the specific biological context.
    *   3. (Biology) The process of an individual organism growing organically; a purely biological unfolding of events involved in an organism changing gradually from a simple to a more complex level (Osseous development) - Highly specific to biological change/growth/progression, which fits "tumor development."
    *   4. Recent event (Recent developments in Iraq) - Incorrect.
    *   5. Making land productive (Land development) - Incorrect.
    *   6. Developed district (Park developments) - Incorrect.
    *   7. State of improvement/result (Latest development) - Incorrect.
    *   8. Photography process (Film development) - Incorrect.
    *   9. Music section (Musical development) - Incorrect.
5.  **Compare the best fits (2 and 3):**
    *   Sense 2 is general: "the development of his ideas took many years."
    *   Sense 3 is specific to biology: "the process of an individual organism growing organically; a purely biological unfolding of events involved in an organism changing gradually from a simple to a more complex level."
6.  **Conclusion:** Since the sentence explicitly discusses "gene losses" and "tumor," the biological sense (Sense 3) is the most precise and appropriate meaning.

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

Sentence: "It was the confirming evidence we all needed that gene losses were critical to the development of a <t>common</t> tumor, "says Ray White at Howard Hughes Medical Institute in Salt Lake City.

Senses:
1. definition=belonging to or participated in by a community as a whole; public | examples=for the common good
2. definition=having no special distinction or quality; widely known or commonly encountered; average or ordinary or usual | examples=the common man
3. definition=common to or shared by two or more parties | examples=a common friend
4. definition=commonly encountered | examples=a common (or familiar) complaint
5. definition=being or characteristic of or appropriate to everyday language | examples=common parlance
6. definition=of or associated with the great masses of people | examples=the common people in those days suffered greatly
7. definition=of low or inferior quality or value; - Shakespeare | examples=of what coarse metal ye are molded
8. definition=lacking refinement or cultivation or taste | examples=he had coarse manners but a first-rate mind
9. definition=to be expected; standard | examples=common decency

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the sentence:** "It was the confirming evidence we all needed that gene losses were critical to the development of a <t>common</t> tumor."
2.  **Analyze the context:** The word "common" modifies "tumor." The sentence is discussing biological/medical findings (gene losses, tumor development).
3.  **Determine the meaning of "common" in this context:** A "common tumor" likely refers to a type of tumor that is frequently found, typical, or standard, as opposed to a rare or unique one.
4.  **Evaluate the provided senses:**

    *   1. belonging to or participated in by a community as a whole; public (e.g., for the common good) -> *Doesn't fit the medical context.*
    *   2. having no special distinction or quality; widely known or commonly encountered; average or ordinary or usual (e.g., the common man) -> *This fits. A common tumor is an ordinary or usual type of tumor.*
    *   3. common to or shared by two or more parties (e.g., a common friend) -> *Doesn't fit. The tumor isn't shared by two parties.*
    *   4. commonly encountered (e.g., a common complaint) -> *This is very close to Sense 2, focusing on frequency/encounter. A common tumor is one that is commonly encountered.*
    *   5. being or characteristic of or appropriate to everyday language (e.g., common parlance) -> *Irrelevant.*
    *   6. of or associated with the great masses of people (e.g., the common people) -> *Irrelevant.*
    *   7. of low or inferior quality or value (e.g., coarse metal) -> *Doesn't fit. "Common" here implies typical, not necessarily low quality.*
    *   8. lacking refinement or cultivation or taste (e.g., coarse manners) -> *Irrelevant.*
    *   9. to be expected; standard (e.g., common decency) -> *This is also a strong candidate. A common tumor is a standard type of tumor.*

5.  **Compare the best candidates (2, 4, 9):**

    *   Sense 2: "having no special distinction or quality; widely known or commonly encountered; average or ordinary or usual." (This is the broadest and most accurate fit for "typical/ordinary.")
    *   Sense 4: "commonly encountered." (Focuses purely on frequency.)
    *   Sense 9: "to be expected; standard." (Focuses on typicality/norm.)

6.  **Select the best fit:** Sense 2 encompasses "ordinary," "usual," and "commonly encountered," making it the most comprehensive and accurate definition for a biological entity like a tumor that is typical or standard. While Sense 4 and 9 are related, Sense 2 captures the full scope of "common" when describing a non-unique type of thing.

7.  **Final check:** "A common tumor" means an ordinary, usual, or widely encountered type of tumor. This matches Sense 2.

10. definition=recite or repeat a fixed text | examples=Say grace
11. definition=indicate | examples=The clock says noon

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the sentence:** "It was the confirming evidence we all needed that gene losses were critical to the development of a common tumor, 'says' Ray White at Howard Hughes Medical Institute in Salt Lake City."
2.  **Identify the usage of "says":** The word "says" is used to attribute a statement (the preceding clause: "It was the confirming evidence...") to a specific person (Ray White).
3.  **Examine the senses provided:** I need to find the sense that means "to report or attribute a statement made by someone."
4.  **Evaluate the senses against the usage:**
    *   1. definition=express in words | examples=He said that he wanted to marry her (This is reporting speech.)
    *   2. definition=report or maintain | examples=He alleged that he was the victim of a crime (This is reporting/attributing a claim.)
    *   3. definition=express a supposition | examples=Let us say that he did not tell the truth (Incorrect.)
    *   4. definition=have or contain a certain wording or form | examples=The passage reads as follows (Incorrect.)
    *   5. definition=give instructions to or direct somebody to do something with authority | examples=I said to him to go home (Incorrect - imperative/command.)
    *   6. definition=speak, pronounce, or utter in a certain way | examples=She pronounces French words in a funny way (Incorrect - manner of speaking.)
    *   7. definition=communicate or express nonverbally | examples=What does this painting say? (Incorrect - nonverbal.)
    *   8. definition=utter aloud | examples=She said `Hello' to everyone in the office (This is the act of speaking, but sense 2 is more precise for attribution.)
    *   9. definition=state as one's opinion or judgement; declare | examples=I say let's forget this whole business (This is expressing an opinion, not reporting someone else's statement.)
    *   10. definition=recite or repeat a fixed text | examples=Say grace (Incorrect.)
    *   11. definition=indicate | examples=The clock says noon (Incorrect - indicating time.)
5.  **Compare Sense 1 and Sense 2:**
    *   Sense 1: "express in words" (General reporting).
    *   Sense 2: "report or maintain" (Specifically reporting a claim or allegation).
    *   The sentence is clearly reporting a claim/statement made by Ray White. Both 1 and 2 fit, but Sense 2 ("report or maintain") is often the most precise definition used in corpus linguistics for attributing a statement (like a quote or a finding) to a source. Sense 1 is also correct, but Sense 2 captures the function of attributing a specific claim/finding.

6.  **Final Selection:** Sense 2 is the best fit for attributing a statement ("It was the confirming evidence...") to a source (Ray White).

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

Sentence: But Dr. Vogelstein had <t>yet</t> to nail the identity of the gene that, if damaged, flipped a colon cell into full-blown malignancy.

Senses:
1. definition=up to the present time | examples=I have yet to see the results
2. definition=used in negative statement to describe a situation that has existed up to this point or up to the present time | examples=So far he hasn't called
3. definition=to a greater degree or extent; used with comparisons | examples=looked sick and felt even worse
4. definition=within an indefinite time or at an unspecified future time | examples=he longed for the flowers that were yet to show themselves
5. definition=used after a superlative | examples=this is the best so far
6. definition=despite anything to the contrary (usually following a concession) | examples=although I'm a little afraid, however I'd like to try it

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the sentence:** "But Dr. Vogelstein had <t>yet</t> to nail the identity of the gene..."
2.  **Analyze the structure:** The sentence uses the construction "had yet to [verb]". This is a perfect tense structure (past perfect) combined with "yet" to indicate an action that was expected or planned but had not happened up to that point in the past.
3.  **Determine the meaning of "yet" in this context:** It means "up to the present time (or up to that point in the past), this action has not occurred."
4.  **Evaluate the senses:**
    *   1. definition=up to the present time | examples=I have yet to see the results. (Matches the meaning: the action of nailing the identity has not happened up to the time of speaking/writing.)
    *   2. definition=used in negative statement to describe a situation that has existed up to this point or up to the present time | examples=So far he hasn't called. (This is a very close match, often used interchangeably with Sense 1, especially in negative/incomplete action contexts. The structure "had yet to" is inherently negative/incomplete.)
    *   3. definition=to a greater degree or extent; used with comparisons. (Incorrect. Not a comparative.)
    *   4. definition=within an indefinite time or at an unspecified future time | examples=he longed for the flowers that were yet to show themselves. (Incorrect. This implies future possibility, but the sentence implies a lack of completion up to a point.)
    *   5. definition=used after a superlative. (Incorrect. No superlative.)
    *   6. definition=despite anything to the contrary. (Incorrect. Not a concessive phrase.)
5.  **Compare Sense 1 and Sense 2:**
    *   Sense 1: "up to the present time" (Focuses on the temporal boundary).
    *   Sense 2: "used in negative statement to describe a situation that has existed up to this point or up to the present time" (Focuses on the function in a negative/incomplete context).
    *   The structure "had yet to" is a classic example of Sense 1, which is often categorized under the broader function described in Sense 2. Since the action is incomplete ("had not nailed"), Sense 2 is highly accurate. Sense 1 is also accurate.
    *   Let's re-examine the examples provided for Sense 1: "I have yet to see the results." (Perfect match).
    *   Let's re-examine the examples provided for Sense 2: "So far he hasn't called." (Perfect match).
    *   In the context of "had yet to," the primary function is to state that something has not happened *up to that point*. Both 1 and 2 capture this. However, Sense 1 ("up to the present time") is the most direct definition of the temporal meaning conveyed by "yet" in this specific construction.

6.  **Final Selection:** Sense 1 is the most precise definition for the temporal meaning of "yet" in the structure "had yet to [verb]".

Senses:
1. definition=the distinct personality of an individual regarded as a persisting entity | examples=you can lose your identity when you join the army
2. definition=the individual characteristics by which a thing or person is recognized or known | examples=geneticists only recently discovered the identity of the gene that causes it
3. definition=an operator that leaves unchanged the element on which it operates | examples=the identity under numerical multiplication is 1
4. definition=exact sameness | examples=they shared an identity of interests

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the request:** The user wants to identify which numbered sense of the word "identity" (<t>identity</t>) is used in the provided sentence. The output must be *only* the number.

2.  **Analyze the sentence:** "But Dr. Vogelstein had yet to nail the <t>identity</t> of the gene that, if damaged, flipped a colon cell into full-blown malignancy."

3.  **Determine the context of "identity":**
    *   The subject is a "gene."
    *   The action is "nailing the identity of the gene."
    *   The context is scientific/biological (gene function, malignancy).
    *   In this context, "identity" refers to figuring out *what* the gene is, or what specific characteristics/nature it possesses.

4.  **Evaluate the senses:**

    *   **Sense 1:** definition=the distinct personality of an individual regarded as a persisting entity | examples=you can lose your identity when you join the army. (Relates to people/personality. Incorrect.)
    *   **Sense 2:** definition=the individual characteristics by which a thing or person is recognized or known | examples=geneticists only recently discovered the identity of the gene that causes it. (Relates to identifying characteristics of a thing/entity, like a gene. Matches the context.)
    *   **Sense 3:** definition=an operator that leaves unchanged the element on which it operates | examples=the identity under numerical multiplication is 1. (Mathematical/logical concept. Incorrect.)
    *   **Sense 4:** definition=exact sameness | examples=they shared an identity of interests. (Relates to equivalence or sameness. While related to identification, Sense 2 is a much closer fit for "nailing the identity of a gene.")

5.  **Conclusion:** Sense 2 perfectly matches the usage in the sentence ("nail the identity of the gene").

6.  **Format the output:** Return only the number.

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

Sentence: But Dr. Vogelstein had yet to nail the identity of the gene that, if <t>damaged</t>, flipped a colon cell into full-blown malignancy.

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:
1.  **Analyze the request:** The user wants to identify which numbered sense of the word "damaged" (marked with `<t>`) is used in the provided sentence. The output must be only the number.

2.  **Analyze the sentence:** "But Dr. Vogelstein had yet to nail the identity of the gene that, if <t>damaged</t>, flipped a colon cell into full-blown malignancy."

3.  **Analyze the context of "damaged":** The gene is the subject. The structure is "if [gene] damaged, [result]". The gene is the entity that is potentially affected or altered.

4.  **Analyze the senses:**
    *   **Sense 1:** definition=inflict damage upon | examples=The snow damaged the roof. (Active voice, agent causes damage to object).
    *   **Sense 2:** definition=suffer or be susceptible to damage | examples=These fine china cups damage easily. (Passive/intransitive sense, the subject receives the damage).

5.  **Apply the context to the senses:**
    *   In the sentence, the gene is the entity that is being affected (it is *suffering* damage, or being *altered*).
    *   If Sense 1 were used, the gene would be the agent inflicting damage (e.g., "if the gene damaged the cell"). This is incorrect.
    *   If Sense 2 is used, the gene is the entity that is susceptible to or suffers the damage (e.g., "if the gene is damaged"). This fits the biological context (a gene mutation/damage causes the flip).

6.  **Conclusion:** Sense 2 is the correct sense.

7.  **Format the output:** Return only the number.

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the sentence:** "But Dr. Vogelstein had yet to nail the identity of the gene that, if damaged, <t>flipped</t> a colon cell into full-blown malignancy."
2.  **Determine the meaning of "flipped" in context:** The gene damage causes the cell to change state—from a normal colon cell to a malignant (cancerous) cell. This is a fundamental change in state or condition.
3.  **Examine the senses provided:**
    *   1. lightly throw to see which side comes up (Coin toss) - No.
    *   2. cause to go on or to be engaged or set in operation (Switch on) - Possible, but usually implies activation, not transformation into a different state.
    *   3. look through a book (Thumbed through) - No.
    *   4. toss with a sharp movement (Throwing in air) - No.
    *   5. cause to move with a flick (Flicked Bic) - No.
    *   6. throw or toss with a light motion (Beachball) - No.
    *   7. move with a flick or light motion - No.
    *   8. turn upside down, or throw so as to reverse (Pork chop) - No.
    *   9. react in an excited, delighted, or surprised way (Princeton) - No.
    *   10. go mad, go crazy (Laid off) - No.
    *   11. reverse (a direction, attitude, or course of action) - This sense relates to changing a state or direction.

4.  **Re-evaluate the context and senses, focusing on transformation:** The cell is *transformed* or *changed* into malignancy.
    *   Sense 2: "cause to go on or to be engaged or set in operation." While "malignancy" is a state, the gene *causes* the cell to enter that state. This is a strong candidate for causation/activation.
    *   Sense 11: "reverse (a direction, attitude, or course of action)." This usually implies going back or changing polarity (e.g., flipping a switch from on to off).

5.  **Consider the biological context (Cellular transformation):** In biology, when a gene causes a cell to become cancerous, it is often described as the cell *switching* or *changing* its state.
    *   If we interpret "flip" as "switch from state A to state B," Sense 2 ("cause to go on or to be engaged or set in operation") fits the idea of initiating a process (malignancy).
    *   However, let's look closer at the common metaphorical use of "flip" for change. When something "flips," it often means it changes its state entirely.

6.  **Check for a better fit:** The transformation from a healthy cell to a cancerous cell is a radical change in condition.
    *   If we look at the provided senses again, Sense 11 ("reverse (a direction, attitude, or course of action)") is often used metaphorically for a complete change of state or polarity, even if the literal meaning is reversal.
    *   Sense 2 ("cause to go on or to be engaged or set in operation") is the most literal fit for *causing* a process (malignancy) to start.

7.  **Refining the choice (Causation vs. State Change):** The gene *causes* the cell to change.
    *   If the options were "change state" or "cause to change state," that would be ideal.
    *   Between 2 and 11:
        *   Sense 2: *Cause* to be engaged/set in operation. (The malignancy process is "set in operation.")
        *   Sense 11: *Reverse* a course of action. (This doesn't fit the progression from healthy to malignant.)

8.  **Conclusion:** Sense 2, meaning "cause to go on or to be engaged or set in operation," best captures the idea that the damaged gene initiates or activates the process of malignancy in the cell. (The cell is "set in operation" as a malignant cell.)

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

Sentence: But Dr. Vogelstein had yet to nail the identity of the gene that, if damaged, flipped a <t>colon</t> cell into full-blown malignancy.

Senses:
1. definition=the part of the large intestine between the cecum and the rectum; it extracts moisture from food residues before they are excreted
2. definition=the basic unit of money in El Salvador; equal to 100 centavos
3. definition=the basic unit of money in Costa Rica; equal to 100 centimos
4. definition=a port city at the Caribbean entrance to the Panama Canal
5. definition=a punctuation mark (:) used after a word introducing a series or an example or an explanation (or after the salutation of a business letter)

reasoning_content:
1.  **Analyze the request:** The user wants to know which numbered sense of the word "colon" is used in the provided sentence. The output must be *only* the number.

2.  **Analyze the sentence:** "But Dr. Vogelstein had yet to nail the identity of the gene that, if damaged, flipped a <t>colon</t> cell into full-blown malignancy."

3.  **Analyze the context of "colon" in the sentence:** "colon cell" refers to a type of biological cell.

4.  **Evaluate the senses:**
    *   Sense 1: "the part of the large intestine between the cecum and the rectum; it extracts moisture from food residues before they are excreted." (This is the anatomical structure, which is composed of cells.)
    *   Sense 2: "the basic unit of money in El Salvador..." (Irrelevant.)
    *   Sense 3: "the basic unit of money in Costa Rica..." (Irrelevant.)
    *   Sense 4: "a port city at the Caribbean entrance to the Panama Canal." (Irrelevant.)
    *   Sense 5: "a punctuation mark (:) used after a word introducing a series or an example or an explanation..." (Irrelevant.)

5.  **Match the context to the sense:** The term "colon cell" refers to a cell originating from or located in the colon (the large intestine). This matches Sense 1.

6.  **Formulate the final answer:** The correct number is 1.
