Cirrus clouds are thin, wispy clouds composed of ice crystals. At what elevation to cirrus clouds form?
low-altitude |
|
ground level |
|
high-altitude |
|
mid-altitude |
Cirrus clouds are thin, wispy high-altitude clouds composed of ice crystals that originate from the freezing of supercooled water droplets. Cirrus clouds generally occur in fair weather and point in the direction of air movement at their elevation.
In fermentation, what replaces oxygen in anaerobic respiration?
starches |
|
ascorbic acid or peptides |
|
lactic acid or alcohol |
|
water |
If no oxygen is present, cellular respiration is anaerobic and will result in fermentation where either lactic acid or alcohol is used instead of oxygen.
As a cold front moves into an area, the heavier cool air __________ the lighter warm air that it is replacing.
mixes with |
|
pushes above |
|
pushes under |
|
cancels out |
A cold front is a warm-cold air boundary with the colder air replacing the warmer. As a cold front moves into an area, the heavier cool air pushes under the lighter warm air that it is replacing. The warm air becomes cooler as it rises and, if the rising air is humid enough, the water vapor it contains will condense into clouds and precipitation may fall.

bacteria |
|

|

|

The broadest classification of life splits all organisms into three groups called domains. The three domains of life are bacteria, archaea and eukaryota.
