What type of cloud is responsible for fog?
cumulus |
|
stratus |
|
cirrus |
|
cumulonimbus |
Clouds are categorized based on their shape, size, and altitude. Stratus clouds are low-altitude clouds characterized by horizontal layering with a broad flat base. When stratus clouds occur on the ground the result is fog.
Veins __________ blood at __________ pressure.
oxygenated, low |
|
deoxygenated, high |
|
oxygenated, high |
|
deoxygenated, low |
Veins carry blood back to the heart from the body. While arteries are thick-walled because they carry oxygenated blood at high pressure, veins are comparatively thin-walled as they carry low-pressure deoxygenated blood. Like the heart, veins contain valves to prevent blood backflow.
Stratus clouds are __________clouds characterized by horizontal layering with a broad flat base.
mid-altitude |
|
high-altitude |
|
low-altitude |
|
all-altitude |

Which of the following would be used in eye glasses to correct farsightedness?
concave lens |
|
convex mirror |
|
convex lens |
|
concave mirror |
Unlike curved mirrors that operate on the principle of reflection, lenses utilize refraction. A convex lens is thicker in the middle than on the edges and converges light while a concave lens is thicker on the edges than in the middle and diffuses light. A common use for curved lenses is in eye glasses where a convex lens is used to correct farsightedness and a concave lens is used to correct nearsightedness.
Convert 0C° to F°.

To convert from C° to F° use:
\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)
\(F° = {9 \over 5}(0) + 32\)
\(F° = 0 + 32 = 32\)
