In the Periodic Table of the Elements, atomic number is equal to which of the following?
number of electrons orbiting the nucleus |
|
number of protons + neutrons in the nucleus |
|
number of protons in the nucleus |
|
number of neutrons in the nucleus |
The Periodic Table of the Elements categorizes elements primarily by the number of protons in their nucleus (atomic number) and secondarily by the characteristics they exhibit.
Velocity and displacement are fully described by both a magnitude and a direction. Velocity and displacement are which of the following?
combinational quantities |
|
scalar quantities |
|
composite quantities |
|
vector quantities |
Velocity and displacement are vector quantities which means each is fully described by both a magnitude and a direction. In contrast, scalar quantities are quantities that are fully described by a magnitude only. A variable indicating a vector quantity will often be shown with an arrow symbol: \(\vec{v}\)
In cell biology, cytokinesis results in two separate:
nuclei |
|
chromatids |
|
cells |
|
chromosomes |
During cell division, the cytokinesis phase occurs when cytoplasm and cell membranes complete their separation resulting in two separate cells.
In cell biology, the primary difference between anaerobic and aerobic respiration is that aerobic respiration requires:
mitochondria |
|
sugar |
|
water |
|
oxygen |
Some plant cells produce their own energy through photosynthesis which is the process by which sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water react to make sugar and oxygen. Animal cells cannot produce their own energy and, instead, generate energy when mitochondria consume outside sugar and oxygen through aerobic respiration.
Changes to an object's speed or direction of motion are caused by which of the following?
kinetic energy |
|
work |
|
power |
|
a force |
Force is applied to change an object's speed or direction of motion.
