Which of blood component fights infection?
red blood cells |
|
platelets |
|
white blood cells |
|

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.
DNA is encoded through a combination of which of the following?
nucleotides |
|
helix |
|
genes |
|
gametes |
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the molecule that contains genetic information. DNA is encoded through a combination of nucleotides that bind together in a specific double helix pattern.
Molecules and atoms that are inputs to a chemical reaction are known as which of the following?
products |
|
reactants |

The two heart chambers that collect blood are called:
ventricles |
|
aorta |
|
atria |
|
valves |
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.
The angle of reflection is equal to which the following?
90° |
|
focal point |
|
angle of incidence |
|
refractive index |
The law of reflection specifies how waves, including light waves, bounce off of surfaces. Specifically, the angle of incidence of the approaching wave is equal to the angle of reflection of the reflected wave as measured from a line perpendicular (90°) to the surface.
