Antigens are found on the outside of which blood cells?
red |
|
platelets |
|
plasma |
|
white |
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.
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per unit of time. Which of these is the formula for acceleration?
\(\vec{a} = { \Delta \vec{v} \over t }\) |
|
\(\vec{a} = { \vec{v} \over t }\) |
|
\(\vec{a} = \Delta \vec{v} t \) |
|
\(\vec{a} = { t \over \Delta \vec{v} }\) |
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 \(\vec{a} = { \Delta \vec{v} \over t }\)
Tertiary consumers eat which of the following?
primary and secondary consumers |
|
all of these |
|
decomposers |
|
producers |
Tertiary consumers eat primary consumers and secondary consumers and are typically carnivorous predators. Tertiary consumers may also be omnivores. Examples include wolves, sharks, and human beings.
The biosphere consists of which of the following?
lithosphere |
|
hydrosphere |
|
all of these |
|
atmosphere |
The biosphere is the global ecological system integrating all living beings and their relationships. This includes their interactions with the lithosphere (the rigid outer part of the earth, consisting of the crust and upper mantle), hydrosphere (all surface water), and atmosphere (the envelope of gases surrounding the planet).
In the Periodic Table of the Elements, atomic number is equal to which of the following?
number of neutrons in the nucleus |
|
number of electrons orbiting the nucleus |
|
number of protons + neutrons in the nucleus |
|
number of protons in the nucleus |
The Periodic Table of the Elements categorizes elements primarily by the number of protons in their nucleus (atomic number) and secondarily by the characteristics they exhibit.
