In cell biology, cytokinesis results in two separate:
chromatids |
|
cells |
|
chromosomes |
|
nuclei |
During cell division, the cytokinesis phase occurs when cytoplasm and cell membranes complete their separation resulting in two separate cells.
Which of the following is not part of the carbon cycle?
precipitation |
|
respiration |
|
photosynthesis |
|
decomposition |
The carbon cycle represents the ciruit of carbon through Earth's ecosystem. Carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere is absorbed by plants through photosynthesis. Plants then die and release carbon back into the atmosphere during decomposition or are eaten by animals who breathe (respiration) the carbon into the atmosphere they exhale and produce waste which also releases carbon as it decays.
In the water cycle, infiltration is most closely related to:
water table |
|
runoff |
|
oceans |
|
rivers |
The water then accumulates as runoff and eventually returns to bodies of water or is absorbed into the Earth (infiltration) and becomes part of the water table, an underground resevoir of fresh water.
In cell biology, what part of the cell contains organelles?
nucleus |
|
cell wall |
|
cell membrane |
|
cytoplasm |
The nucleus of a eukaryotic cell contains the genetic material of the cell and is surrounded by cytoplasm which contains many organelles.
What prevents blood pumped out of the ventricles from flowing back into the heart?
valves |
|
platelets |
|
capillaries |
|
atria |
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.
