The angle of reflection is equal to which the following?
90° |
|
focal point |
|
refractive index |
|
angle of incidence |
The law of reflection specifies how waves, including light waves, bounce off of surfaces. Specifically, the angle of incidence of the approaching wave is equal to the angle of reflection of the reflected wave as measured from a line perpendicular (90°) to the surface.
The universal recipient blood type can recieve any other blood type. Which blood type is the universal recipient?
O |
|
O-negative |
|
AB |
|
AB-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.
The two heart chambers that collect blood are called:
valves |
|
atria |
|
ventricles |
|
aorta |
The heart is the organ that drives the circulatory system. In humans, it consists of four chambers with two that collect blood called atria and two that pump blood called ventricles. The heart's valves prevent blood pumped out of the ventricles from flowing back into the heart.
Antigens in the blood determine:
Rh factor |
|
blood oxygen capacity |
|
negative or positive status |
|
blood type |
Blood is categorized into four different types (A, B, AB, and O) based on the type of antigens found on the outside of the red blood cells. Additionally, each type can be negative or positive based on whether or not the cells have an antigen called the Rh factor.
Which of the following describes how a person's genes express themselves in physical characteristics?
genotype |
|
chromotype |
|
phenotype |
|
DNA |
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.
