Someone who has Rh-factor __________ blood cannot receive blood with a __________ type.
antigen, negative |
|
positive, antigen |
|
negative, positive |
|
positive, negative |
Blood transfer is limited by the type and Rh factor of the blood. Someone who has Rh-factor negative blood cannot receive blood with a positive type but a person with Rh-factor positive type blood can receive Rh-negative blood. Type O negative blood is the universal donor because it can be given to a person with any blood type. Type AB positive is the universal recipient meaning someone with this blood type can receive any other type of blood.
The formula for acceleration is which of the following?
\(\vec{a} = { m \over F }\) |
|
\(\vec{a} = \vec{F} m\) |
|
\(\vec{a} = { m \over \vec{F} }\) |
|
\(\vec{a} = { \vec{F} \over m }\) |
Newton's second law of motion leads to the formula for acceleration which is a measure of the rate of change of velocity per unit time and, if you solve for positive acceleration, reveals how much net force is needed to overcome an object's mass. The formula for acceleration is \(\vec{a} = { \vec{F} \over m }\) or, solving for force, \(\vec{F} = m\vec{a}\).
Which of the following does not filter air as part of the respiratory system?
epiglottis |
|
nasal cavity |
|
trachea |
|
pharynx |
After air enters through the nose, it passes through the nasal cavity which filters, moistens, and warms it. Further filtering takes place in the pharynx, which also helps protect against infection, and then in the trachea which is just past the epiglottis which prevents food from entering the airway.
In the metric system, what prefix represents 103?
milli |
|
mega |
|
centi |
|
kilo |
Kilo is the metric system prefix for 103.
Which of the following is sedimentary rock?
obsidian |
|
slate |
|
basalt |
|
sandstone |
The Earth's rocks fall into three categories based on how they're formed. Igneous rock (granite, basalt, obsidian) is formed from the hardening of molten rock (lava), sedimentary rock (shale, sandstone, coal) is formed by the gradual despositing and cementing of rock and other debris, and metamorphic rock (marble, slate, quartzite) which is formed when existing rock is altered though pressure, temperature, or chemical processes.
