An element in the physical state of __________ maintains a constant volume but their shape depends upon the shape of their container.
plasma |
|
liquid |
|
gas |
|
solid |
In the liquid state, molecules flow freely around each other and exist at a higher temperature range than the same substance in a solid state. Liquids maintain a constant volume but their shape depends upon the shape of their container.
The transfer of heat by the circulation or movement of the heated parts of a liquid or gas is called:
radiation |
|
conduction |
|
convection |
|
diffusion |
Convection is the transfer of heat by the circulation or movement of the heated parts of a liquid or gas. Examples of heat transfer by convection include water coming to a boil on a stove, ice melting, and steam from a cup of coffee.
Respiration is the process by which __________ absorb oxygen and eliminate carbon dioxide.
blood cells |
|
diaphragms |
|
capillaries |
|
bronchioles |
The respiratory system manages respiration which is the process by which blood cells absorb oxygen and eliminate carbon dioxide.
DNA is encoded through a combination of which of the following?
nucleotides |
|
helix |
|
gametes |
|
genes |
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the molecule that contains genetic information. DNA is encoded through a combination of nucleotides that bind together in a specific double helix pattern.
Which of the following is the formula for work?
\(W = {F}{d}\) |
|
\(W = {{F}\over{d}}\) |
|
\(W = \vec{F}\vec{d}\) |
|
\(W = {\vec{F} \over \vec{d} }\) |
Work is performed on an object when an applied force causes displacement along the same vector. Measured in joules (J) or newton-meter (Nm), work is calculated by multiplying force times displacement: \(W = \vec{F}\vec{d}\)
