Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per unit of time. Which of these is the formula for acceleration?
\(\vec{a} = { t \over \Delta \vec{v} }\) |
|
\(\vec{a} = { \Delta \vec{v} \over t }\) |
|
\(\vec{a} = { \vec{v} \over t }\) |
|
\(\vec{a} = \Delta \vec{v} t \) |
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per unit of time. In physics, the delta symbol (\(\Delta\)) represents change so the formula for acceleration becomes \(\vec{a} = { \Delta \vec{v} \over t }\)
In the classification of life, which of the following is not a kingdom?
fungi |
|
animals |
|
plants |
|
bacteria |
Below domain, life is classified into six kingdoms: plants, animals, archaebacteria, eubacteria, and fungi. The last kingdom, protists, include all microscopic organisms that are not bacteria, animals, plants or fungi. (Archaebacteria and eubacteria are sometimes combined into a single kingdom, monera.)
In cell biology, what part of the cell contains organelles?
nucleus |
|
cell wall |
|
cell membrane |
|
cytoplasm |
The nucleus of a eukaryotic cell contains the genetic material of the cell and is surrounded by cytoplasm which contains many organelles.
The process of diffusion allows __________ to exchange oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients, and waste between blood and the body's cells.
red blood cells |
|
capillaries |
|
veins |
|
arteries |
Capillaries are small thin-walled vessels that permit the exchange of oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients, and waste between blood and the body's cells. This process of exchange is called diffusion.
A __________ is the smallest multi-atom particle of an element or compound that can exist and still retain the characteristics of the element or compound.
molecule |
|
isotope |
|
neutron |
|
ion |
A molecule is the smallest multi-atom particle of an element or compound that can exist and still retain the characteristics of the element or compound. The molecules of elements consist of two or more similar atoms, the molecules of compounds consist of two or more different atoms.
