Elements in the same group in the Periodic Table of the Elements have the same:
number of electron shells |
|
number of electrons |
|
number of electrons in their outer electron shell |
|
number of atomic mass units |
The columns of the Periodic Table are called groups and all elements in a group have the same number of electrons in their outer electron shell. The group that an element occupies generally determines its chemical properties as the number of outer shell electrons establishes the way it reacts with other elements to form molecules. So, because each element has the same number of electrons in its outer shell, each has similar reactivity.
Convert -20C° to F°.

-36 |
To convert from C° to F° use:
\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)
\(F° = {9 \over 5}(-20) + 32\)
\(F° = {-180 \over 5} + 32\)
\(F° = -36 + 32 = -4\)
I biome is made up of naturally occurring flora and fauna. Fauna is which of the following?
plants |
|
animals |
|
habitats |
|
minerals |
A biome is a large naturally occurring community of flora (plants) and fauna (animals) occupying a major habitat (home or environment).
The __________ is a system of muscles that allows breathing.
trachea |
|
bronchioles |
|
pulmonary |
|
diaphragm |
The diaphragm is a system of muscles that allows breathing. During inhalation, the diaphragm expands and air rushes in to fill the space created. Then, during exhalation, the diaphragm contracts and forces the air back out.
Blood is circulated throughout the body via:
veins |
|
aorta |
|
arterioles |
|
capillaries |
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.
