In the pancreas, lipase converts fat to:
amino acids |
|
simple sugars |
|
complex carbohydrates |
|
glycerol and fatty acids |
The acids produced by the pancreas contain several enzymes that aid in digestion. Lipase converts fat to glycerol and fatty acids. Pancreatic amylase breaks down complex carbohydrates into simple sugars. Trypsin converts polypeptides (the building blocks of protein) into amino acids.
The formula for acceleration is which of the following?
\(\vec{a} = { m \over F }\) |
|
\(\vec{a} = \vec{F} m\) |
|
\(\vec{a} = { m \over \vec{F} }\) |
|
\(\vec{a} = { \vec{F} \over m }\) |
Newton's second law of motion leads to the formula for acceleration which is a measure of the rate of change of velocity per unit time and, if you solve for positive acceleration, reveals how much net force is needed to overcome an object's mass. The formula for acceleration is \(\vec{a} = { \vec{F} \over m }\) or, solving for force, \(\vec{F} = m\vec{a}\).
Changes to an object's speed or direction of motion are caused by which of the following?
kinetic energy |
|
power |
|
a force |
|
work |
Force is applied to change an object's speed or direction of motion.
The transfer of heat by the circulation or movement of the heated parts of a liquid or gas is called:
diffusion |
|
radiation |
|
conduction |
|
convection |
Convection is the transfer of heat by the circulation or movement of the heated parts of a liquid or gas. Examples of heat transfer by convection include water coming to a boil on a stove, ice melting, and steam from a cup of coffee.
Which of the following is the formula for power?
\(P = w t\) |
|
\(P = \vec{w}t\) |
|
\(P = {\vec{w} \over t}\) |
|
\(P = {w \over t}\) |
Power is the rate at which work is performed or work per unit time: \(P = {w \over t}\) and is measured in watts (W).
