In the classification of life, which of the following is not a kingdom?
plants |
|
fungi |
|
bacteria |
|
animals |
Below domain, life is classified into six kingdoms: plants, animals, archaebacteria, eubacteria, and fungi. The last kingdom, protists, include all microscopic organisms that are not bacteria, animals, plants or fungi. (Archaebacteria and eubacteria are sometimes combined into a single kingdom, monera.)
Force is measured in newtons (N) with 1 N being the force required to impart an acceleration of:
1 m/s2 to a mass of 1 kg/s2 |
|
1 m/s2 to a mass of 1 kg |
|
1 m/s to a mass of 1 kg |
|
1 mph to a mass of 1 kg |
Weight is a force that describes the attraction of gravity on an object. Force is measured in newtons (N) with 1 N being the force required to impart an acceleration of 1 m/s2 to a mass of 1 kg.
The ovum and oviduct are part of which bodily system?
circulatory |
|
reproductive |
|
digestive |
|
nervous |
Approximately every 28 days during female ovulation an egg (ovum) is released from one of the ovaries and travels through the oviduct (fallopian tube) and into the uterus. At the same time, the endometrial lining of the uterus becomes prepared for implantation.
Elements in the Periodic Table of the Elements are ordered by which of the following?
atomic weight |
|
atomic mass |
|
atomic number |
|
number of electron shells |
The Periodic Table of the Elements categorizes elements primarily by the number of protons in their nucleus (atomic number) and secondarily by the characteristics they exhibit.
Water has a refractive index of 1.33. Which of the following is true?
light is 1.33 times dimmer in a vacuum than it is in water |
|
light travels 1.33 times faster in a vacuum than it does in water |
|
light is 1.33 times brighter in a vacuum than it is in water |
|
light travels 1.33 times slower in a vacuum than it does in water |
The speed of light varies based on the material that the waves are passing through. The refractive index of a material indicates how easily light travels through it compared to how easily light travels through a vacuum. For example, the refractive index of water is 1.33, meaning that light travels 1.33 times faster in a vacuum than it does in water.
