Which of the following is not a method of heat transfer?
conduction |
|
reflection |
|
convection |
|
radiation |
Heat is always transferred from warmer to cooler environments through conduction, convection, or radiation.
In the water cycle, infiltration is most closely related to:
oceans |
|
runoff |
|
rivers |
|
water table |
The water then accumulates as runoff and eventually returns to bodies of water or is absorbed into the Earth (infiltration) and becomes part of the water table, an underground resevoir of fresh water.
A dominant trait will be expressed when paired with:
a gene |
|
a dominant trait |
|
a recessive trait |
|
a chromosome |
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 universal recipient blood type can recieve any other blood type. Which blood type is the universal recipient?
O-negative |
|
AB |
|
O |
|
AB-positive |
Blood transfer is limited by the type and Rh factor of the blood. Someone who has Rh-factor negative blood cannot receive blood with a positive type but a person with Rh-factor positive type blood can receive Rh-negative blood. Type O negative blood is the universal donor because it can be given to a person with any blood type. Type AB positive is the universal recipient meaning someone with this blood type can receive any other type of blood.

To convert from C° to F° use:
\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)
\(F° = {9 \over 5}(-20) + 32\)
\(F° = {-180 \over 5} + 32\)
\(F° = -36 + 32 = -4\)
