Materials like metals that transfer heat efficiently are called:
insulators |
|
conductors |
|
reflectors |
|
refractors |
Heat is always transferred from warmer to cooler environments and conduction is the simplest way this transfer can occur. It is accomplished through direct contact between materials and materials like metals that transfer heat efficiently are called conductors while those that conduct heat poorly, such as plastic, are called insulators.
Which of these does not contain oxygenated blood?
aorta |
|
left ventricle |
|
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.
"An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force." This describes which of Newton's laws of motion?
first |
|
second |
|
third |
|
fourth |
Also known as the law of inertia, Newton's first law of motion states that An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
What part of the brain is responsible for for balance, movement, and muscle coordination?
cerebrum |
|
brainstem |
|
medulla |
|
cerebellum |
The cerebellum is a large cluster of nerves at the base of the brain that's responsible for balance, movement, and muscle coordination.
Which of the following is the correct order for types of radiation from longest to shortest wavelength?
radio waves → visible light → gamma rays |
|
infrared waves → microwaves → ultraviolet light |
|
microwaves → radio waves → visible light |
|
visible light → ultraviolet light → radio waves |
The electromagnetic spectrum covers all possible wavelengths and frequencies of radiation. From lowest frequency (longest wavelength) to highest frequency (shortest wavelength) radiation: radio waves → microwaves → infrared waves → visible light → ultraviolet light → X-rays → gamma rays.
