In fermentation, what replaces oxygen in anaerobic respiration?
lactic acid or alcohol |
|
water |
|
ascorbic acid or peptides |
|
starches |
If no oxygen is present, cellular respiration is anaerobic and will result in fermentation where either lactic acid or alcohol is used instead of oxygen.
When two air masses meet and neither is displaced, what kind of front is present?
stationary |
|
cold |
|
warm |
|
occluded |
When two air masses meet and neither is displaced, a stationary front is created. Stationary fronts often cause persistent cloudy wet weather.
Convert 5C° to F°.

To convert from C° to F° use:
\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)
\(F° = {9 \over 5}(5) + 32\)
\(F° = {45 \over 5} + 32\)
\(F° = 9 + 32 = 41\)
Earth's breathable air is held in which atmospheric layer?
stratosphere |
|
troposphere |
|
mesosphere |
|
thermosphere |
The Earth's atmosphere has several layers starting with the troposphere which is closest in proximity to the surface. Containing most of the Earth's breathable air (oxygen and nitrogen), it's a region with warmer temperatures closer to the surface and cooler temperatures farther away which results in the rising and falling air that generates weather.
An electrically charged atom is a(n):
electron |
|
proton |
|
neutron |
|
ion |
A compound is a substance containing two or more different chemical elements bound together by a chemical bond. In ionic compounds, one atom borrows an electron from another atom resulting in two ions (electrically charged atoms) of opposite polarities that then become bonded electrostatically.
