Blood is delivered to bodily tissues through:
arterioles |
|
capillaries |
|
veins |
|
plasma |
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.

The formula to convert from F° to C° is:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (F° - 32)\)
plugging in our values gives:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (50 - 32)\)
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (18)\)
\(C° = {90 \over 9}\)
\(C° = 10\)

Veins carry blood back to the heart from the body. While arteries are thick-walled because they carry oxygenated blood at high pressure, veins are comparatively thin-walled as they carry low-pressure deoxygenated blood. Like the heart, veins contain valves to prevent blood backflow.
"For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." This describes which of Newton's laws of motion?

third |

fourth |
|
second |
Newton's third law of motion states that For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When an object exerts a force on another object, the second object exerts a force of equal magnitude in the opposite direction on the first object.

both dominant and recessive alleles |
|
recessive alleles |
|
dominant alleles |
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.
