The rows of the Periodic Table of the Elements are called:
periods |
|
families |
|
groups |
|
shells |
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.
-40°F is how many °C?
-8 |
|
\({40 \over 9}\) |
|
-40 |
|
\(-{40 \over 9}\) |
The formula to convert from F° to C° is:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (F° - 32)\)
plugging in our values gives:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (-40 - 32)\)
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (-72) = {{-72 \times 5} \over 9}\)
\(C° = {-360 \over 9}\)
\(C° = -40\)
Which of these represents the path of blood flow through the heart?
right atrium → left ventricle → lungs → left atrium → right ventricle |
|
left atrium → left ventricle → lungs → right atrium → right ventricle |
|
right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle |
|
left atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → right ventricle |
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.
Which of the following does not filter air as part of the respiratory system?
epiglottis |
|
pharynx |
|
nasal cavity |
|
trachea |
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.
Traits represented by genes may be which of the following?
expressed |
|
recessive |
|
all of these |
|
dominant |
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.
