A person's genotype is their genetic makeup and includes:
recessive alleles |
|
dominant alleles |
|
both dominant and recessive alleles |
|
phenotypes |
A person's genotype is their genetic makeup and includes both dominant and recessive alleles. Phenotype is how the genes express themselves in physical characteristics.
When compared to eukaryotic cells, prokaryotic cells are:
none of these |
|
more complex |
|
similarly complex |
|
less complex |
Cells are classified into one of two groups based on whether or not they have a nucleus. Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus, prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus and therefore have a less complex structure than eukaryotic cells.
Secondary consumers that also eat producers are known as:
carnivores |
|
herbivores |
|
omnivores |
|

Secondary consumers (carnivores) subsist mainly on primary consumers. Omnivores are secondary consumers that also eat producers. Examples are rats, fish, and chickens.
Small rocks shed by asteroids and comets that reach the earth are called:
meteorites |
|
meteors |
|
meteoroids |
|
shooting stars |
Smaller rocks shed by asteroids and comets are called meteoroids. When these rocks reach Earth's atmosphere, they burn up in the mesosphere and become meteors. If a meteor manages to reach the Earth, it is called a meteorite.
Velocity and displacement are fully described by both a magnitude and a direction. Velocity and displacement are which of the following?
combinational quantities |
|
scalar quantities |
|
composite quantities |
|
vector quantities |
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: \(\vec{v}\)
