|
endoplasmic reticulum |
|
ribosomes |

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.)
Veins __________ blood at __________ pressure.
deoxygenated, low |
|
oxygenated, low |
|
oxygenated, high |
|
deoxygenated, high |
Veins carry blood back to the heart from the body. While arteries are thick-walled because they carry oxygenated blood at high pressure, veins are comparatively thin-walled as they carry low-pressure deoxygenated blood. Like the heart, veins contain valves to prevent blood backflow.

An element in the physical state of __________ maintains a constant volume but their shape depends upon the shape of their container.
gas |
|
plasma |
|
liquid |
|
solid |
In the liquid state, molecules flow freely around each other and exist at a higher temperature range than the same substance in a solid state. Liquids maintain a constant volume but their shape depends upon the shape of their container.
