Which of the following does not represent the freezing point of water?
0°C |
|
32°F |
|
0°F |
|
273K |
The Fahrenheit scale fixes the freezing point of water at 32°F, the Celsuis scale at 0°C, and the Kelvin scale at 273K.
What part of the brain is responsible for for balance, movement, and muscle coordination?
cerebellum |
|
cerebrum |
|
brainstem |
|

The ozone layer is in which of Earth's atmospheric layers?
stratosphere |
|
thermosphere |
|
troposphere |
|
mesosphere |
The stratosphere is just above the troposphere and is stratified in temperature with warmer layers higher and cooler layers closer to Earth. This increase in temperature is a result of absorption of the Sun's radiation by the ozone layer.
Which of these represents the path of blood flow through the heart?
left atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → right ventricle |
|
right atrium → left ventricle → lungs → left atrium → right ventricle |
|
right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle |
|
left atrium → left ventricle → lungs → right atrium → right ventricle |
To provide oxygen to the body, blood flows through the heart in a path formed by the right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle → body. When blood enters the right side of the heart it is deoxygenated. It enters the left side of the heart oxygenated after traveling to the lungs.
The biosphere consists of which of the following?
hydrosphere |
|
lithosphere |
|
all of these |
|
atmosphere |
The biosphere is the global ecological system integrating all living beings and their relationships. This includes their interactions with the lithosphere (the rigid outer part of the earth, consisting of the crust and upper mantle), hydrosphere (all surface water), and atmosphere (the envelope of gases surrounding the planet).
