Which of the following describes the Earth's mantle?
hot |
|
dense |
|
makes up most of Earth's volume |
|
all of these |
Mantle makes up 84% of the Earth's volume and has an average thickness of approximately 1,800 miles (2,900 km). It is dense, hot, and primarily solid although in places it behaves more like a viscous fluid as the plates of the upper mantle and crust gradually "float" along its circumference.
The angle of reflection is equal to which the following?
angle of incidence |
|
refractive index |
|
focal point |
|
90° |
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.
Which of the following is not one of the outer planets?
Jupiter |
|
Uranus |
|
Neptune |
|
Venus |

Antigens in the blood determine:
Rh factor |
|
negative or positive status |
|
blood type |
|
blood oxygen capacity |
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.
