The angle of reflection is equal to which the following?
angle of incidence |
|
refractive index |
|
focal point |
|
90° |
The law of reflection specifies how waves, including light waves, bounce off of surfaces. Specifically, the angle of incidence of the approaching wave is equal to the angle of reflection of the reflected wave as measured from a line perpendicular (90°) to the surface.
In cell biology, what part of the cell contains organelles?
cell membrane |
|
cell wall |
|
cytoplasm |
|
nucleus |
The nucleus of a eukaryotic cell contains the genetic material of the cell and is surrounded by cytoplasm which contains many organelles.
Sound travels fastest through which of the following media?
water |
|
metal |
|
air |
|
vacuum |
The speed of a sound wave will vary with the medium. Sound travels fastest through media that has particles that are very close together, like metal. Thus, it travels faster through water than through air and doesn't travel at all through a vacuum (there are no particles in empty space to vibrate).
The heart __________ blood.
filters |
|
creates |
|
deoxygenates |
|
oxygenates |
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 human heart consists of how many chambers?
8 |

4 |
|
1 |
|
2 |
The heart is the organ that drives the circulatory system. In humans, it consists of four chambers with two that collect blood called atria and two that pump blood called ventricles. The heart's valves prevent blood pumped out of the ventricles from flowing back into the heart.
