Universal donor blood can be given to a person with any blood type. Which blood type is the universal donor?
O-positive |
|
O-negative |
|
O |
|
AB |
Blood transfer is limited by the type and Rh factor of the blood. Someone who has Rh-factor negative blood cannot receive blood with a positive type but a person with Rh-factor positive type blood can receive Rh-negative blood. Type O negative blood is the universal donor because it can be given to a person with any blood type. Type AB positive is the universal recipient meaning someone with this blood type can receive any other type of blood.

Which of the following states of matter exists at the lowest temperature?
gas |

liquid |
|
solid |
|
none of these |
Solids exist at a lower temperature than liquids which exist at a lower temperature than gases.
The hottest of Earth's atmospheric layers is which of the following?
thermosphere |
|
mesosphere |
|
stratosphere |
|
troposphere |
Temperatures again increase with altitude in the thermosphere which is the hottest (4,530 °F / 2,500 °C) atmospheric layer due to direct exposure to the Sun's radiation. However, the gas in this layer is highly diluted so even though the atoms of gas may be very high in temperature, there are too few of them to effectively transfer much heat.
Which of these is a type of Earth's crust?
terrestrial |
|
sedimentary |
|
oceanic |
|
metamorphic |
The crust is the Earth's outermost layer and is divided into oceanic and continental types. Oceanic crust is 3 miles (5 km) to 6 miles (10 km) thick and is composed primarily of denser rock. Continental crust is 20 to 30 miles (30 to 50 km) thick and composed primarily of less dense rock. The crust makes up approximately one percent of the Earth's total volume.
