Scavengers break down the dead bodies of plants and animals into which of the following?
complex carbohydrates |
|
simple nutrients |
|
producers |
|
carrion |
Like decomposers, scavengers also break down the dead bodies of plants and animals into simple nutrients. The difference is that scavengers operate on much larger refuse and dead animals (carrion). Decomposers then consume the much smaller particles left over by the scavengers.
The rate of vibration of sound is called:
frequency |
|
period |
|
volume |
|
amplitude |
The rate of vibration of sound is called frequency and is measured in hertz (Hz). One hertz is one repetition per second and sounds with high frequency have a higher pitch than sounds with lower frequency. Humans can hear sounds in the range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz.
Plant cells may generate energy through which of the following?
photosynthesis |
|
aerobic respiration |
|
anaerobic respiration |
|
all of these |
Some plant cells produce their own energy through photosynthesis which is the process by which sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water react to make sugar and oxygen. Animal cells cannot produce their own energy and, instead, generate energy when mitochondria consume outside sugar and oxygen through aerobic respiration.
Which of the following represents the largest value?
1 mL |
|
1 ML |
|
1 kL |
|
1 cL |
Mega (M) is 106, kilo (k) is 103, centi (c) is 10-2, milli (m) is 10-3 so 1 ML represents the largest value.
Antigens in the blood determine:
blood oxygen capacity |
|
blood type |
|
negative or positive status |
|
Rh factor |
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.
