In the heart, blood flows from the right __________ to the lungs then back to the heart via the left __________.
ventricle, atrium |
|
atrium, ventricle |
|
ventricle, ventricle |
|
atrium, atrium |
The two largest veins in the body, the venae cavae, pass blood to the right ventricle which pumps the blood to the lungs through the pulmonary artery. Blood picks up oxygen in the lungs and returns it to the left atrium via the pulmonary vein.
Which of these represents the path of blood flow through the heart?
left atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → right ventricle |
|
left atrium → left ventricle → lungs → right atrium → right ventricle |
|
right atrium → left ventricle → lungs → left atrium → right ventricle |
|
right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → 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 these is not a function of bone in the human skeletal system?
store minerals |
|
store vitamins |
|
produce blood cells |
|
protect bodily organs |
Hard bones provide primary support for the endoskeleton while more flexible cartilage is found at the end of all bones, at the joints, and in the nose and ears. In addition to providing support and protecting bodily organs, bones also produce blood cells and store minerals like calcium.
Which of the following is the correct order for types of radiation from lowest to highest frequency?
visible light → ultraviolet light → radio waves |
|
infrared waves → microwaves → ultraviolet light |
|
radio waves → visible light → gamma rays |
|
microwaves → radio waves → visible light |
The electromagnetic spectrum covers all possible wavelengths and frequencies of radiation. From lowest frequency (longest wavelength) to highest frequency (shortest wavelength) radiation: radio waves → microwaves → infrared waves → visible light → ultraviolet light → X-rays → gamma rays.
What kind of weather front is likely to create clouds and storms?
stationary front |
|
cold front |
|
warm front |
|
temperate front |
A warm front is the boundary between warm and cool (or cold) air when the warm air is replacing the cold air. Warm air at the surface pushes above the cool air mass creating clouds and storms.
