Which of the following is the correct order for types of radiation from lowest to highest frequency?
visible light → ultraviolet light → radio waves |
|
radio waves → visible light → gamma rays |
|
microwaves → radio waves → visible light |
|
infrared waves → microwaves → ultraviolet light |
The electromagnetic spectrum covers all possible wavelengths and frequencies of radiation. From lowest frequency (longest wavelength) to highest frequency (shortest wavelength) radiation: radio waves → microwaves → infrared waves → visible light → ultraviolet light → X-rays → gamma rays.
Which of blood component fights infection?
plasma |
|
white blood cells |
|
platelets |
|
red blood cells |
Blood is created in bone marrow and is made up of cells suspended in liquid plasma. Red blood cells carry oxygen, white blood cells fight infection, and platelets are cell fragments that allow blood to clot.
Tough fibrous cords of connective tissue that connect muscles to the skeleton are called:
ligaments |
|
cartilage |
|
tendons |
|
vertebra |
Tough fibrous cords of connective tissue called tendons connect muscles to the skeleton while another type of connective tissue called ligaments connect bones to other bones at joints (elbow, knee, fingers, spinal column).
Antigens are found on the outside of which blood cells?
platelets |
|
plasma |
|
white |
|
red |
Blood is categorized into four different types (A, B, AB, and O) based on the type of antigens found on the outside of the red blood cells. Additionally, each type can be negative or positive based on whether or not the cells have an antigen called the Rh factor.
Which of the following is the formula for power?
\(P = {w \over t}\) |
|
\(P = {\vec{w} \over t}\) |
|
\(P = w t\) |
|
\(P = \vec{w}t\) |
Power is the rate at which work is performed or work per unit time: \(P = {w \over t}\) and is measured in watts (W).
