In cell biology, cytokinesis results in two separate:
cells |
|
chromosomes |
|
chromatids |
|
nuclei |
During cell division, the cytokinesis phase occurs when cytoplasm and cell membranes complete their separation resulting in two separate cells.
In the heart, blood flows from the __________ ventricle to the lungs then back to the heart via the __________ atrium.
left, right |
|
right, right |
|
right, left |
|
left, left |
The two largest veins in the body, the venae cavae, pass blood to the right ventricle which pumps the blood to the lungs through the pulmonary artery. Blood picks up oxygen in the lungs and returns it to the left atrium via the pulmonary vein.
The fossil record is a product of which period of Earth's history?
Cretaceous |
|
Cambrian |
|
Cenozoic |
|
Jurassic |
The Cambrian period is one of the most significant geological time periods. Lasting about 53 million years, it marked a dramatic burst of changes in life on Earth known as the Cambrian Explosion. It is from this period that the majority of the history of life on Earth, as documented by fossils, is found. Called the fossil record, the layering of these mineralized imprints of organisms preserved in sedementary rock have allowed geologists to build a historical record of plant and animal life on Earth.
Velocity and displacement are fully described by both a magnitude and a direction. Velocity and displacement are which of the following?
composite quantities |
|
scalar quantities |
|
vector quantities |
|
combinational 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: \(\vec{v}\)
Changes to an object's speed or direction of motion are caused by which of the following?
work |
|
kinetic energy |
|
power |
|
a force |
Force is applied to change an object's speed or direction of motion.
