Work is measured in:
joules or newton-meters |
|
watts |
|
horsepower |
|
amps |
Work is performed on an object when an applied force causes displacement along the same vector. Measured in joules (J) or newton-meters (Nm), work is calculated by multiplying force times displacement: \(W = \vec{F}\vec{d}\)
Blood is created in:
the liver |
|
the heart |
|
red blood cells |
|
bone marrow |

alkaline |
|
neutral |
|
acidic |
|
basic |
An acid is a substance that gives up positively charged hydrogen ions (H+) when dissolved in water. A base (alkaline) gives up negatively charged hydroxide ions (OH-) when dissolved in water. pH is a scale that measures of how basic or acidic a solution is. Numbered from 0 to 14, solutions with a pH of 7 are neutral, less than 7 are acidic, more than 7 are alkaline.

A person's genotype is their genetic makeup and includes:
dominant alleles |
|
recessive 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.
