Which of these does not contain oxygenated blood?
pulmonary vein |
|
left ventricle |
|
aorta |
|
right atrium |
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.
Velocity is the rate at which an object changes position. What is the formula for velocity?
\(\vec{v} = \vec{d}t \) |
|
none of these |
|
\(\vec{v} = { t \over \vec{d} } \) |
|
\(\vec{v} = { \vec{d} \over t } \) |
Velocity is the rate at which an object changes position. Rate is measured in time and position is measured in displacement so the formula for velocity becomes \(\vec{v} = { \vec{d} \over t } \)
The __________ nervous system controls voluntary actions.
autonomic |
|
somatic |
|
central |
|
peripheral |
Part of the peripheral nervous system, the somatic nervous system is made up of nerve fibers that send sensory information to the central nervous system and control voluntary actions.
Which of the following is not a medium for sound waves?
solid |
|
none of these is a medium for sound waves |
|
liquid |
|
vacuum |
A vibrating object produces a sound wave that travels outwardly from the object through a medium (any liquid or solid matter). The vibration disturbs the particles in the surrounding medium, those particles disturb the particules next to them, and so on, as the sound propagates away from the vibration.
Which of the following is igneous rock?
shale |
|
granite |
|
sandstone |
|
marble |
The Earth's rocks fall into three categories based on how they're formed. Igneous rock (granite, basalt, obsidian) is formed from the hardening of molten rock (lava), sedimentary rock (shale, sandstone, coal) is formed by the gradual despositing and cementing of rock and other debris, and metamorphic rock (marble, slate, quartzite) which is formed when existing rock is altered though pressure, temperature, or chemical processes.
