The formula \(\vec{F_{g}} = { Gm_{1}m_{2} \over r^2}\) applies to which of Newton's laws?
first law of motion |
|
third law of motion |
|
second law of motion |
|
universal gravitation |
Newton's law of universal gravitation defines gravity: All objects in the universe attract each other with an equal force that varies directly as a product of their masses, and inversely as a square of their distance from each other. Expressed as a formula: \(\vec{F_{g}} = { Gm_{1}m_{2} \over r^2}\) where r is the distance between the two objects and G is the gravitational constant with a value of 6.67 x 10-11.
In the food chain, consumers are classified as which of the following?
primary |
|
all of these |
|
secondary |
|
tertiary |
Most animals consume other organisms to survive. Consumers (heterotrophs) are divided into three types, primary, secondary, and tertiary, based on their place in the food chain.
Which of the following is true about species groups?
an ecosystem is a biological population |
|
a population is made up of a group of communities |
|
a biome is a made up of a group of biospheres |
|
a community is made up of a group of populations |
A population is a group of organisms of the same species who live in the same area at the same time. A community is a group of populations living and interacting with each other in an area.
Which of these does not contain oxygenated blood?
pulmonary vein |
|
right atrium |
|
aorta |
|
left ventricle |
To provide oxygen to the body, blood flows through the heart in a path formed by the right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle → body. When blood enters the right side of the heart it is deoxygenated. It enters the left side of the heart oxygenated after traveling to the lungs.
Which of the following describes how a person's genes express themselves in physical characteristics?
phenotype |
|
genotype |
|
chromotype |
|
DNA |
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.
