diaphragms |
|
blood cells |
|
capillaries |
|
bronchioles |

Which of these represents the path of blood flow through the heart?
right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle |
|
left atrium → left ventricle → lungs → right atrium → right 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.
A compound is a substance containing two or more different chemical elements bound together by what kind of bond?
molecular |
|
ionic |
|
chemical |
|
covalent |
A compound is a substance containing two or more different chemical elements bound together by a chemical bond. In covalent compounds, electrons are shared between atoms. In ionic compounds, one atom borrows an electron from another atom resulting in two ions (electrically charged atoms) of opposite polarities that then become bonded electrostatically.
In the food chain, omnivores may be which of the following?
primary or secondary consumers |
|

|
primary or tertiary consumers |
|
secondary consumers or scavengers |

Which of the following is sedimentary rock?
sandstone |
|
obsidian |
|
basalt |
|
slate |
The Earth's rocks fall into three categories based on how they're formed. Igneous rock (granite, basalt, obsidian) is formed from the hardening of molten rock (lava), sedimentary rock (shale, sandstone, coal) is formed by the gradual despositing and cementing of rock and other debris, and metamorphic rock (marble, slate, quartzite) which is formed when existing rock is altered though pressure, temperature, or chemical processes.
