Which is the proper order of Earth's atmospheric layers from the surface up to space?
troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere |
|
mesosphere, thermosphere, stratosphere, troposphere |
|
thermosphere, mesosphere, stratosphere, troposphere |
|
stratosphere, troposphere, mesosphere, thermosphere |
The troposphere is the closest layer to Earth, followed by the stratosphere, mesosphere, and finally the thermosphere which borders space.
What is a major difference between the somatic and autonomic nervous systems?
one controls thinking, the other controls feeling |
|
each belongs to a different nervous system |
|
one is inherited, the other is learned |
|
one controls voluntary activity, one controls involuntary activity |
Both are part of the peripheral nervous system. The somatic nervous system sends sensory information to the central nervous system and controls voluntary actions while the autonomic nervous system regulates involuntary activity in the heart, stomach, and intestines.
Plant cells are surrounded by:
neither a cell membrane nor a cell wall |
|
only a cell membrane |
|
a cell membrane and a cell wall |
|
only a cell wall |
Animal cells are surrounded by a semipermeable membrane which allows for the transfer of water and oxygen to and from the cell. In plant cells, the cell membrane is surrounded by a somewhat rigid cell wall which provides the cell structure and support.

To convert from C° to F° use:
\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)
\(F° = {9 \over 5}(5) + 32\)
\(F° = {45 \over 5} + 32\)
\(F° = 9 + 32 = 41\)

Also known as the law of inertia, Newton's first law of motion states that An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
