mid-altitude |
|
all-altitude |
|

Blood is delivered to bodily tissues through:
capillaries |
|
arterioles |
|
plasma |
|
veins |
The aorta is the body's largest artery and receives blood from the pulmonary vein via the left ventricle. From there, blood is circulated through the rest of the body through smaller arteries called arterioles that branch out from the heart. Finally, blood is delivered to bodily tissues through capillaries.
In cell biology, cytokinesis results in two separate:
nuclei |
|
cells |
|
chromatids |
|
chromosomes |
During cell division, the cytokinesis phase occurs when cytoplasm and cell membranes complete their separation resulting in two separate cells.
Antigens in the blood determine:
blood oxygen capacity |
|
negative or positive status |
|
Rh factor |
|
blood type |
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.
Scalar quantities are fully described by which of the following?
a magnitude and a polarity |
|
a direction only |
|
a magnitude and a direction |
|
a magnitude only |
Velocity and displacement are vector quantities which means each is fully described by both a magnitude and a direction. In contrast, scalar quantities are quantities that are fully described by a magnitude only. A variable indicating a vector quantity will often be shown with an arrow symbol: \(\vec{v}\)
