Which of the following is the correct order for types of radiation from lowest to highest frequency?
radio waves → visible light → gamma rays |
|
visible light → ultraviolet light → radio waves |
|
infrared waves → microwaves → ultraviolet light |
|
microwaves → radio waves → visible 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 the following states of matter exists at the lowest temperature?
solid |
|
gas |
|
none of these |
|
liquid |
Solids exist at a lower temperature than liquids which exist at a lower temperature than gases.
A dominant trait will be expressed when paired with:
a gene |
|
a dominant trait |
|
a chromosome |
|
a recessive trait |
The traits represented by genes are inherited independently of each other (one from the male and one from the female gamete) and a trait can be dominant or recessive. A dominant trait will be expressed when paired with a recessive trait while two copies of a recessive trait (one from each parent) must be present for the recessive trait to be expressed.
In cell biology, cytokinesis results in two separate:
nuclei |
|
cells |
|
chromatids |
|
chromosomes |
During cell division, the cytokinesis phase occurs when cytoplasm and cell membranes complete their separation resulting in two separate cells.
Which of the following is igneous rock?
marble |
|
granite |
|
shale |
|
sandstone |
The Earth's rocks fall into three categories based on how they're formed. Igneous rock (granite, basalt, obsidian) is formed from the hardening of molten rock (lava), sedimentary rock (shale, sandstone, coal) is formed by the gradual despositing and cementing of rock and other debris, and metamorphic rock (marble, slate, quartzite) which is formed when existing rock is altered though pressure, temperature, or chemical processes.
