50°F is how many °C?
58 |
|
-10 |
|
122 |
|
10 |
The formula to convert from F° to C° is:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (F° - 32)\)
plugging in our values gives:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (50 - 32)\)
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (18)\)
\(C° = {90 \over 9}\)
\(C° = 10\)
Which of the following is not part of the carbon cycle?
photosynthesis |
|
respiration |
|
decomposition |
|
precipitation |
The carbon cycle represents the ciruit of carbon through Earth's ecosystem. Carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere is absorbed by plants through photosynthesis. Plants then die and release carbon back into the atmosphere during decomposition or are eaten by animals who breathe (respiration) the carbon into the atmosphere they exhale and produce waste which also releases carbon as it decays.

autonomic |
|
central |
|
peripheral |
|
somatic |
Part of the peripheral nervous system, the autonomic nervous system regulates involuntary activity in the heart, stomach, and intestines.
Vector quantities are fully described by which of the following?
a direction only |
|
a direction and a polarity |
|
a magnitude only |
|
a magnitude and a direction |
Velocity and displacement are vector quantities which means each is fully described by both a magnitude and a direction. In contrast, scalar quantities are quantities that are fully described by a magnitude only. A variable indicating a vector quantity will often be shown with an arrow symbol: \(\vec{v}\)
__________ is caused by a lack of iron in the diet.
diabetes |
|
scurvy |
|
anemia |
|
shingles |
Anemia, which may cause weakness, dizziness, and headaches is caused by a lack of iron in the diet.
