Convert -20C° to F°.
-4 |
|
-36 |
|
78 |
|
36 |
To convert from C° to F° use:
\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)
\(F° = {9 \over 5}(-20) + 32\)
\(F° = {-180 \over 5} + 32\)
\(F° = -36 + 32 = -4\)
Cirrus clouds generally occur in what kind of weather?
hot |
|
freezing |
|
fair |

sedimentary |
|
oceanic |

terrestrial |

metamorphic |
The crust is the Earth's outermost layer and is divided into oceanic and continental types. Oceanic crust is 3 miles (5 km) to 6 miles (10 km) thick and is composed primarily of denser rock. Continental crust is 20 to 30 miles (30 to 50 km) thick and composed primarily of less dense rock. The crust makes up approximately one percent of the Earth's total volume.

Which of these does not contain oxygenated blood?
left ventricle |
|
right atrium |
|
pulmonary vein |
|
aorta |
To provide oxygen to the body, blood flows through the heart in a path formed by the right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle → body. When blood enters the right side of the heart it is deoxygenated. It enters the left side of the heart oxygenated after traveling to the lungs.
