Which of blood component fights infection?
white blood cells |
|
plasma |
|
red blood cells |
|
platelets |
Blood is created in bone marrow and is made up of cells suspended in liquid plasma. Red blood cells carry oxygen, white blood cells fight infection, and platelets are cell fragments that allow blood to clot.
An element in the physical state of __________ maintains a constant volume and shape.
gas |
|
liquid |
|
solid |
|
gel |
An element in a solid state has atoms or molecules that are constricted and do not move freely. Solids maintain a constant volume and shape and exist at a lower temperature than liquids or gases.
Velocity is the rate at which an object changes position. What is the formula for velocity?
\(\vec{v} = \vec{d}t \) |
|
none of these |
|
\(\vec{v} = { \vec{d} \over t } \) |
|
\(\vec{v} = { t \over \vec{d} } \) |
Velocity is the rate at which an object changes position. Rate is measured in time and position is measured in displacement so the formula for velocity becomes \(\vec{v} = { \vec{d} \over t } \)
In fermentation, what replaces oxygen in anaerobic respiration?
starches |
|
water |
|
ascorbic acid or peptides |
|
lactic acid or alcohol |
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.
An element in the physical state of __________ maintains a constant volume but their shape depends upon the shape of their container.
liquid |
|
solid |
|
plasma |
|
gas |
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.
