Which of the following is the narrowest classification of life?
species |
|
domain |
|
genus |
|
family |
The narrowest classification of life, species, contains organisms that are so similar that they can only reproduce with others of the same species.
Which of the following would you find in the side view mirror of a car?
convex lens |
|
concave lens |
|
convex mirror |
|
concave mirror |
A concave (or converging) mirror bulges inward and focuses reflected light on the mirror's focal point where the mirror's angles of incidence converge. In contrast, a convex (or diverging) mirror bulges outward and diffuses the light waves that strike it. A common use of a concave mirror is in a reflecting telescope, a common use of a convex mirror is in the side view mirror of a car.
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 |
|
vector quantities |
|
composite 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: \(\vec{v}\)
Universal donor blood can be given to a person with any blood type. Which blood type is the universal donor?
O-negative |
|
O |
|
AB |
|
O-positive |
Blood transfer is limited by the type and Rh factor of the blood. Someone who has Rh-factor negative blood cannot receive blood with a positive type but a person with Rh-factor positive type blood can receive Rh-negative blood. Type O negative blood is the universal donor because it can be given to a person with any blood type. Type AB positive is the universal recipient meaning someone with this blood type can receive any other type of blood.
"An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force." This describes which of Newton's laws of motion?
third |
|
fourth |
|
second |
|
first |
Also known as the law of inertia, Newton's first law of motion states that An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
