Which of the following does not filter air as part of the respiratory system?
epiglottis |
|
nasal cavity |
|
trachea |
|
pharynx |
After air enters through the nose, it passes through the nasal cavity which filters, moistens, and warms it. Further filtering takes place in the pharynx, which also helps protect against infection, and then in the trachea which is just past the epiglottis which prevents food from entering the airway.
The rows of the Periodic Table of the Elements are called:
families |
|
periods |
|
shells |
|
groups |
The rows of the Periodic Table are called periods and contain elements that have the same number of electron shells ordered from lower to higher atomic number.
Convert 5C° to F°.

To convert from C° to F° use:
\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)
\(F° = {9 \over 5}(5) + 32\)
\(F° = {45 \over 5} + 32\)
\(F° = 9 + 32 = 41\)
Which of the following is not a medium for sound waves?
solid |
|
none of these is a medium for sound waves |
|
liquid |
|
vacuum |
A vibrating object produces a sound wave that travels outwardly from the object through a medium (any liquid or solid matter). The vibration disturbs the particles in the surrounding medium, those particles disturb the particules next to them, and so on, as the sound propagates away from the vibration.
Elements that belong to the same period in the Periodic Table of the Elements have the same number of:
protons |
|
electron shells |
|
electrons |
|
atomic mass units |
The rows of the Periodic Table are called periods and contain elements that have the same number of electron shells ordered from lower to higher atomic number.
