Topics Gas, Genetic Type, Moon, Proteins, Stomach

Study Guide

Gas

The gaseous state occurs at a higher temperature range than the solid and liquid states of the same substance. In this state, molecules flow very freely around each other and will spread out as far as they're able. Gases maintain neither a constant volume nor a constant shape.

Genetic Type

A person's genotype is their genetic makeup and includes both dominant and recessive alleles. Phenotype is how the genes express themselves in physical characteristics.

Moon

Tides are caused by the gravitational interaction of Earth and the Moon.

Proteins

Found in both animal sources (meat, fish, eggs, cheese) and vegetables (beans, nuts, some grains), proteins are important for the body's maintenance, growth, and repair.

Stomach

Food is mixed with gastric acid and pepsin in the stomach to help break down protein.
