Which of the following is not part of the carbon cycle?
precipitation
The carbon cycle represents the ciruit of carbon through Earth's ecosystem. Carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere is absorbed by plants through photosynthesis. Plants then die and release carbon back into the atmosphere during decomposition or are eaten by animals who breathe (respiration) the carbon into the atmosphere they exhale and produce waste which also releases carbon as it decays.
Blood is created in:
bone marrow
Blood is created in bone marrow and is made up of cells suspended in liquid plasma. Red blood cells carry oxygen, white blood cells fight infection, and platelets are cell fragments that allow blood to clot.
Electricity cannot flow...
through an open circuit
An electrical circuit is a path through which electricity flows. This path contains one or more components that create a load (something that is using electricity) and that load acts as resistance to the passage of electricity through the circuit. Electricity can only flow through a circuit when the path is closed and cannot flow through an open circuit.
Convert x-3 to remove the negative exponent.
To convert a negative exponent to a positive exponent, calculate the positive exponent then take the reciprocal.
Inductance is a factor in which of the following?
an AC circuit
Inductance is a property of an AC circuit (or a component in an AC circuit) that quantifies resistance to changes in current. The current in an AC circuit is continuously changing and inductive reactance (the opposition to change) depends both on the inductance of the circuit or component and the rate at which the current is changing.
A subatomic particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom. It carries a negative electric charge. This desribes which of the following?
electron
An electron is a subatomic particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom. It carries a negative electric charge. Generally, an atom has the same number of negative electrons orbiting the nucleus as it does positive protons inside.
An endoskeleton (internal skeleton) is a charateristic of __________ animals, including humans.
vertebrate
An endoskeleton (internal skeleton) is a charateristic of vertebrate animals, including humans.
