Traits represented by genes may be which of the following?
all of these |
|
recessive |
|
dominant |
|
expressed |
The traits represented by genes are inherited independently of each other (one from the male and one from the female gamete) and a trait can be dominant or recessive. A dominant trait will be expressed when paired with a recessive trait while two copies of a recessive trait (one from each parent) must be present for the recessive trait to be expressed.
-40°F is how many °C?
-8 |
|
\(-{40 \over 9}\) |
|
\({40 \over 9}\) |
|
-40 |
The formula to convert from F° to C° is:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (F° - 32)\)
plugging in our values gives:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (-40 - 32)\)
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (-72) = {{-72 \times 5} \over 9}\)
\(C° = {-360 \over 9}\)
\(C° = -40\)
Changes to an object's speed or direction of motion are caused by which of the following?
a force |
|
power |
|
kinetic energy |
|
work |
Force is applied to change an object's speed or direction of motion.
In the classification of life, bacteria, archaea and eukaryota are which of the following?
kingdoms |
|
classes |
|
species |
|
domains |
The broadest classification of life splits all organisms into three groups called domains. The three domains of life are bacteria, archaea and eukaryota.
An element in the physical state of __________ maintains a constant volume but their shape depends upon the shape of their container.
solid |
|
gas |
|
plasma |
|
liquid |
In the liquid state, molecules flow freely around each other and exist at a higher temperature range than the same substance in a solid state. Liquids maintain a constant volume but their shape depends upon the shape of their container.
