1

The angle of reflection is equal to which the following?

48% Answer Correctly

90°

refractive index

focal point

angle of incidence


Solution

The law of reflection specifies how waves, including light waves, bounce off of surfaces. Specifically, the angle of incidence of the approaching wave is equal to the angle of reflection of the reflected wave as measured from a line perpendicular (90°) to the surface.


2

Antigens in the blood determine:

52% Answer Correctly

blood type

negative or positive status

Rh factor

blood oxygen capacity


Solution

Blood is categorized into four different types (A, B, AB, and O) based on the type of antigens found on the outside of the red blood cells. Additionally, each type can be negative or positive based on whether or not the cells have an antigen called the Rh factor.


3

Convert -20C° to F°.

54% Answer Correctly

78

36

-4

-36


Solution

To convert from C° to F° use:

\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)

\(F° = {9 \over 5}(-20) + 32\)

\(F° = {-180 \over 5} + 32\)

\(F° = -36 + 32 = -4\)


4

The first step in the water cycle is:

68% Answer Correctly

infiltration

precipitation

evaporation

reclamation


Solution

The water (hydrologic) cycle describes the movement of water from Earth through the atmosphere and back to Earth. The cycle starts when water evaporates into a gas from bodies of water like rivers, lakes and oceans or transpirates from the leaves of plants.


5

The heart __________ blood.

61% Answer Correctly

filters

deoxygenates

creates

oxygenates


Solution

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.
