Which of the following does not represent the freezing point of water?
273K |
|
0°C |
|
0°F |
|
32°F |
The Fahrenheit scale fixes the freezing point of water at 32°F, the Celsuis scale at 0°C, and the Kelvin scale at 273K.
Which of the following is not a medium for sound waves?
liquid |
|
solid |
|
none of these is a medium for sound waves |
|
vacuum |
A vibrating object produces a sound wave that travels outwardly from the object through a medium (any liquid or solid matter). The vibration disturbs the particles in the surrounding medium, those particles disturb the particules next to them, and so on, as the sound propagates away from the vibration.
Bronchioles, alveolus, and capillaries are vital parts of which bodily system?
nervous |
|
digestion |
|
circulation |
|
respiration |
The trachea branches into the left and right bronchi which each lead to a lung where the bronchi subdivide into smaller tubes called bronchioles. Each bronchiole ends in a small sac called an alveolus which allows oxygen from the air to enter the bloodstream via tiny blood vessels called capillaries.
Elements in the Periodic Table of the Elements are ordered by which of the following?
atomic mass |
|
atomic number |
|
atomic weight |
|
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.
Which of these represents the path of blood flow through the heart?
left atrium → left ventricle → lungs → right atrium → right ventricle |
|
right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle |
|
right atrium → left ventricle → lungs → left atrium → right ventricle |
|
left atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → right ventricle |
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.
