In a eukaryotic cell, which organelles deal with proteins?
Golgi apparatus |
|
all of these deal with proteins |
|
endoplasmic reticulum |
|
ribosomes |
The nucleus of a eukaryotic cell contains the genetic material of the cell and is surrounded by cytoplasm which contains many organelles. Ribosomes produce proteins, endoplasmic reticulum helps synthesize proteins and fats, and Golgi apparatus prepares proteins for use.
What is the body's largest artery?
aorta |
|
arteriole |
|
capillary |
|
vena cava |
The aorta is the body's largest artery and receives blood from the pulmonary vein via the left ventricle. From there, blood is circulated through the rest of the body through smaller arteries called arterioles that branch out from the heart. Finally, blood is delivered to bodily tissues through capillaries.
Momentum is a measure of how difficult it is for a moving object to stop. Which of the following is the formula for momentum?
\(\vec{p} = { \vec{v} \over m}\) |
|
\(\vec{p} = {m \over \vec{v}}\) |
|
none of these |
|
\(\vec{p} = m\vec{v}\) |
Momentum is a measure of how difficult it is for a moving object to stop and is calculated by multiplying the object's mass by its velocity: \(\vec{p} = m\vec{v}\). Like velocity, momentum is a vector quantity as it expresses force applied in a specific direction.
Earth's breathable air is held in which atmospheric layer?
thermosphere |
|
troposphere |
|
stratosphere |
|
mesosphere |
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.
Respiration is the process by which __________ absorb oxygen and eliminate carbon dioxide.
bronchioles |
|
diaphragms |
|
capillaries |
|
blood cells |
The respiratory system manages respiration which is the process by which blood cells absorb oxygen and eliminate carbon dioxide.
