Bronchioles, alveolus, and capillaries are vital parts of which bodily system?
nervous |
|
respiration |
|
digestion |
|
circulation |
The trachea branches into the left and right bronchi which each lead to a lung where the bronchi subdivide into smaller tubes called bronchioles. Each bronchiole ends in a small sac called an alveolus which allows oxygen from the air to enter the bloodstream via tiny blood vessels called capillaries.
Small rocks shed by asteroids and comets that reach the earth are called:
meteorites |
|
meteoroids |
|
meteors |
|
shooting stars |
Smaller rocks shed by asteroids and comets are called meteoroids. When these rocks reach Earth's atmosphere, they burn up in the mesosphere and become meteors. If a meteor manages to reach the Earth, it is called a meteorite.
An element in the physical state of __________ maintains neither a constant volume nor a constant shape.
plasma |
|
gas |
|
solid |
|
liquid |
The gaseous state occurs at a higher temperature range than the solid and liquid states of the same substance. In this state, molecules flow very freely around each other and will spread out as far as they're able. Gases maintain neither a constant volume nor a constant shape.
Which of the following does not represent the freezing point of water?
0°F |
|
32°F |
|
0°C |
|
273K |
The Fahrenheit scale fixes the freezing point of water at 32°F, the Celsuis scale at 0°C, and the Kelvin scale at 273K.
Plant cells may generate energy through which of the following?
aerobic respiration |
|
anaerobic respiration |
|
photosynthesis |
|
all of these |
Some plant cells produce their own energy through photosynthesis which is the process by which sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water react to make sugar and oxygen. Animal cells cannot produce their own energy and, instead, generate energy when mitochondria consume outside sugar and oxygen through aerobic respiration.
