Which of the following is not a type of structural load?
occupancy load
Dead load is the weight of the building and materials, live load is additional weight due to occupancy or use, snow load is the weight of accumulated snow on a structure and wind load is the force of wind pressures against structure surfaces.
Which of the following indicates the correct reproductive sequence?
ovum → zygote → fetus
During intercourse, the penis ejaculates sperm, produced in the testes, into the vagina. Some of the sperm makes their way to the uterus where, if they encounter an egg to fertilize, unite with the ovum to form a fertilized egg or zygote.

If a = c = 4, b = d = 3, what is the area of this rectangle?
The area of a rectangle is equal to its length x width:
a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 4 x 3
a = 12

Heat is always transferred from __________ to __________ environments.
warmer, cooler
Heat is always transferred from warmer to cooler environments and conduction is the simplest way this transfer can occur. It is accomplished through direct contact between materials and materials like metals that transfer heat efficiently are called conductors while those that conduct heat poorly, such as plastic, are called insulators.
