The two heart chambers that collect blood are called:
atria |
|
valves |
|
ventricles |
|
aorta |
The heart is the organ that drives the circulatory system. In humans, it consists of four chambers with two that collect blood called atria and two that pump blood called ventricles. The heart's valves prevent blood pumped out of the ventricles from flowing back into the heart.
What is the body's largest artery?
vena cava |
|
arteriole |
|
aorta |
|
capillary |
The aorta is the body's largest artery and receives blood from the pulmonary vein via the left ventricle. From there, blood is circulated through the rest of the body through smaller arteries called arterioles that branch out from the heart. Finally, blood is delivered to bodily tissues through capillaries.

A person's genotype is their genetic makeup and includes:
recessive alleles |
|
dominant alleles |
|
both dominant and recessive alleles |
|
phenotypes |
A person's genotype is their genetic makeup and includes both dominant and recessive alleles. Phenotype is how the genes express themselves in physical characteristics.
The angle of reflection is equal to which the following?
focal point |
|
refractive index |
|
90° |
|
angle of incidence |
The law of reflection specifies how waves, including light waves, bounce off of surfaces. Specifically, the angle of incidence of the approaching wave is equal to the angle of reflection of the reflected wave as measured from a line perpendicular (90°) to the surface.
