Which of the following indicates the correct reproductive sequence?
zygote → ovum → fetus |
|
ovum → fetus → zygote |
|
none of these are correct |
|
ovum → zygote → fetus |
During intercourse, the penis ejaculates sperm, produced in the testes, into the vagina. Some of the sperm makes their way to the uterus where, if they encounter an egg to fertilize, unite with the ovum to form a fertilized egg or zygote. The zygote then may implant in the uterus and eventually develop into a fetus.
Which of Earth's layers has weather?
mesosphere |
|
troposphere |
|
thermosphere |
|
stratosphere |
The Earth's atmosphere has several layers starting with the troposphere which is closest in proximity to the surface. Containing most of the Earth's breathable air (oxygen and nitrogen), it's a region with warmer temperatures closer to the surface and cooler temperatures farther away which results in the rising and falling air that generates weather.
The Earth's rocks fall into three categories based on how they're formed. Which of the following is formed by the gradual depositing of small rocks?
sedimentary |
|
igneous |
|
metamorphic |
|
granite |
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.
