Velocity and displacement are fully described by both a magnitude and a direction. Velocity and displacement are which of the following?
composite quantities |
|
vector quantities |
|
combinational quantities |
|
scalar quantities |
Velocity and displacement are vector quantities which means each is fully described by both a magnitude and a direction. In contrast, scalar quantities are quantities that are fully described by a magnitude only. A variable indicating a vector quantity will often be shown with an arrow symbol: \(\vec{v}\)
Someone who has Rh-factor __________ blood cannot receive blood with a __________ type.
negative, positive |
|
positive, antigen |
|
antigen, negative |
|
positive, negative |
Blood transfer is limited by the type and Rh factor of the blood. Someone who has Rh-factor negative blood cannot receive blood with a positive type but a person with Rh-factor positive type blood can receive Rh-negative blood. Type O negative blood is the universal donor because it can be given to a person with any blood type. Type AB positive is the universal recipient meaning someone with this blood type can receive any other type of blood.

|
all of these |
|
producers |
|
primary and secondary consumers |
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.
A subatomic particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom. It carries a negative electric charge. This desribes which of the following?
isotope |
|
neutron |
|
proton |
|
electron |
An electron is a subatomic particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom. It carries a negative electric charge. Generally, an atom has the same number of negative electrons orbiting the nucleus as it does positive protons inside.
The Earth's rocks fall into three categories based on how they're formed. Which of the following is formed from the hardening of molten rock?
sedimentary |
|
igneous |
|
metamorphic |
|
marble |
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.
