In the Periodic Table of the Elements, atomic number is equal to which of the following?
number of protons + neutrons in the nucleus |
|
number of neutrons in the nucleus |
|
number of electrons orbiting the nucleus |
|
number of protons in the nucleus |
The Periodic Table of the Elements categorizes elements primarily by the number of protons in their nucleus (atomic number) and secondarily by the characteristics they exhibit.
What kind of weather front is likely to create clouds and storms?
stationary front |
|
warm front |
|
temperate front |
|
cold front |

The formula to convert from F° to C° is:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (F° - 32)\)
plugging in our values gives:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (50 - 32)\)
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (18)\)
\(C° = {90 \over 9}\)
\(C° = 10\)
Tough fibrous cords of connective tissue that connect muscles to the skeleton are called:
vertebra |
|
ligaments |
|
tendons |
|
cartilage |
Tough fibrous cords of connective tissue called tendons connect muscles to the skeleton while another type of connective tissue called ligaments connect bones to other bones at joints (elbow, knee, fingers, spinal column).
The Rh factor antigen in blood determines:
postive or negative |
|
blood type |
|
universal donor status |
|
universal recipient status |
Blood is categorized into four different types (A, B, AB, and O) based on the type of antigens found on the outside of the red blood cells. Additionally, each type can be negative or positive based on whether or not the cells have an antigen called the Rh factor.
