3

In fermentation, what replaces oxygen in anaerobic respiration?

63% Answer Correctly

ascorbic acid or peptides

starches

water

lactic acid or alcohol


Solution

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.


4

The formula for acceleration is which of the following?

56% Answer Correctly

\(\vec{a} = { \vec{F} \over m }\)

\(\vec{a} = { m \over \vec{F} }\)

\(\vec{a} = { m \over F }\)

\(\vec{a} = \vec{F} m\)


Solution

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,  \(\vec{F} = m\vec{a}\).


5

__________ is caused by a lack of Vitamin C.

64% Answer Correctly

anemia

scurvy

diabetes

shingles


Solution

Scurvy is a difficiency disease caused by a lack of Vitamin C in the diet.
