If the length of AB equals the length of BD, point B __________ this line segment.
bisects
A line segment is a portion of a line with a measurable length. The midpoint of a line segment is the point exactly halfway between the endpoints. The midpoint bisects (cuts in half) the line segment.
Inside and outside micrometers measure inside and outside:
diameters
Micrometers measure the diameter of cylindrical objects. Outside micrometers measure the external diameter of cylinders and inside micrometers measure the internal diameter of the cylinder's hole.
Boyle's law defines the relationship between pressure and volume as:
\(\frac{P_1}{P_2} = \frac{V_2}{V_1}\)
Boyle's law states that "for a fixed amount of an ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, pressure and volume are inversely proportional". Expressed as a formula, that's \(\frac{P_1}{P_2} = \frac{V_2}{V_1}\)
Which of the following nuts use a pin to lock the nut in place and prevent it from loosening?
slotted
Wrenches are used with threaded fasteners like bolts and nuts. A bolt has external threads while a nut has internal threads and this thread pattern combination allows them to lock together and act as fasteners. Nuts come in a variety of configurations including wing nuts which provide appendages that allow tightening and loosening by hand, slotted nuts that use a cotter pin to lock the nut in place and prevent it from loosening, and lock nuts that also prevent loosening via nylon in their threads. Threads are identified by pitch which is the number of threads per inch.
A transition zone between two air masses is called:
front
An air mass is a large body of air that has similar moisture (density) and temperature characteristics. A front is a transition zone between two air masses.

secondary or tertiary consumers
Secondary or tertiary consumers may be omnivores.
Examples of primary consumers include:
cows
