Herbs have been an integral part of our diet and pharmacy since humans began roaming the Earth. Dog owners can apply the results of using herbal nutrition and medicine to the dogs they love. To keep your dog healthy, use herbs on a daily basis. If you should ever need them, you will have much better luck getting a sick dog to accept herbal medicines if it has been acclimated to them over the years. Before starting an herbal treatment program for a sick dog, it is best to receive a correct diagnosis from a qualified veterinarian. A veterinarian can provide blood counts, urinalysis, x-rays, and ultrasound diagnosis, which can pinpoint which organ system is compromised. Most importantly, dog owners should find good reference books and reputable herbalists to treat a sick dog with herbal medicines. Which of the following best fits the theme of the passage?
The Kepler spacecraft was designed to investigate humanity's last unexplored frontier: the far reaches of space. The NASA space telescope looks deep into the Milky Way galaxy for signs of habitable planets where humans could potentially thrive. Of the thousands of planets it has identified, three are in livable orbits similar to Earth's. The planet most similar to Earth is Kepler-186f, known as "Earth's cousin." Over 490 light-years away, all that NASA knows is that Kepler-186f's size and distance from its star are comparable to Earth's. As technology advances, hopefully we will learn more about Kepler-186f's ability to nurture life. Perhaps someday our descendants will cross the insurmountable distance to explore the surface of Earth's cousin, maybe even making contact with life on another world. Which of the following is evidence for the theory that Kepler-186f may be able to support life?
