Antigens in the blood determine:

53% Answer Correctly

Rh factor

blood oxygen capacity

negative or positive status

blood type


Solution

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.


2

Cellular fermentation takes place:

50% Answer Correctly

in plant cells

in the presence of oxygen

anaerobically

aerobically


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.


3

Poor balance could indicate an issue with which part of the nervous system?

64% Answer Correctly

cerebrum

cerebellum

medulla

spinal cord


Solution

The cerebellum is a large cluster of nerves at the base of the brain that's responsible for balance, movement, and muscle coordination.


4

Which of these is important for the body's maintenance, growth, and repair?

88% Answer Correctly

carbohydrates

fiber

protein

fats


Solution

Found in both animal sources (meat, fish, eggs, cheese) and vegetables (beans, nuts, some grains), proteins are important for the body's maintenance, growth, and repair.


5

When compared to eukaryotic cells, prokaryotic cells are:

60% Answer Correctly

none of these

similarly complex

less complex

more complex


Solution

Cells are classified into one of two groups based on whether or not they have a nucleus. Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus, prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus and therefore have a less complex structure than eukaryotic cells.
