Which of these does not contain oxygenated blood?
left ventricle |
|
aorta |
|
pulmonary vein |
|
right atrium |
To provide oxygen to the body, blood flows through the heart in a path formed by the right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle → body. When blood enters the right side of the heart it is deoxygenated. It enters the left side of the heart oxygenated after traveling to the lungs.
In cell biology, where does DNA replication take place?
nucleus |
|
mitochondria |
|
Golgi apparatus |
|
cytoplasm |
The cell nucleus contains the genetic material of the cell and is where DNA replication takes place.
-40°F is how many °C?
\({40 \over 9}\) |
|
-40 |
|
\(-{40 \over 9}\) |
|
-8 |
The formula to convert from F° to C° is:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (F° - 32)\)
plugging in our values gives:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (-40 - 32)\)
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (-72) = {{-72 \times 5} \over 9}\)
\(C° = {-360 \over 9}\)
\(C° = -40\)
Traits represented by genes may be which of the following?
all of these |
|
recessive |
|
expressed |
|
dominant |
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.
The __________ is a system of muscles that allows breathing.
bronchioles |
|
diaphragm |
|
pulmonary |
|
trachea |
The diaphragm is a system of muscles that allows breathing. During inhalation, the diaphragm expands and air rushes in to fill the space created. Then, during exhalation, the diaphragm contracts and forces the air back out.
