Blood is delivered to bodily tissues through:
capillaries |
|
plasma |
|
veins |
|
arterioles |
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.
Examples of primary consumers include:
cows |
|
all of these |
|
rats |
|
fish |
Primary consumers (herbivores) subsist on producers like plants and fungus. Examples are grasshoppers, cows, and plankton.
What prevents blood pumped out of the ventricles from flowing back into the heart?
valves |
|
capillaries |
|
atria |
|
platelets |
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.
In cell biology, where does DNA replication take place?
nucleus |
|
cytoplasm |
|
Golgi apparatus |
|
mitochondria |
The cell nucleus contains the genetic material of the cell and is where DNA replication takes place.
A dominant trait will be expressed when paired with:
a chromosome |
|
a recessive trait |
|
a dominant trait |
|
a gene |
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.
