The two heart chambers that pump blood called:
atria |
|
aorta |
|
valves |
|
ventricles |
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.
In taxonomy, domains are the broadest classification of life. How many domains are there?

The broadest classification of life splits all organisms into three groups called domains. The three domains of life are bacteria, archaea and eukaryota.
In a eukaryotic cell, which organelles deal with proteins?
Golgi apparatus |
|
ribosomes |
|
endoplasmic reticulum |
|
all of these deal with proteins |
The nucleus of a eukaryotic cell contains the genetic material of the cell and is surrounded by cytoplasm which contains many organelles. Ribosomes produce proteins, endoplasmic reticulum helps synthesize proteins and fats, and Golgi apparatus prepares proteins for use.
Which of the following would you find in the side view mirror of a car?
concave mirror |
|
convex lens |
|
convex mirror |
|
concave lens |
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.
The most diverse kindgom of life is which of the following?
animals |
|
fungi |
|
protists |
|
plants |
Below domain, life is classified into six kingdoms: plants, animals, archaebacteria, eubacteria, and fungi. The last kingdom, protists, include all microscopic organisms that are not bacteria, animals, plants or fungi. (Archaebacteria and eubacteria are sometimes combined into a single kingdom, monera.)
