Which of the following is the narrowest classification of life?
species |
|
genus |
|
family |
|
domain |
The narrowest classification of life, species, contains organisms that are so similar that they can only reproduce with others of the same species.
__________ is caused by a lack of iron in the diet.
anemia |
|
shingles |
|
diabetes |
|
scurvy |
Anemia, which may cause weakness, dizziness, and headaches is caused by a lack of iron in the diet.
Convert -20C° to F°.
36 |
|
78 |
|
-36 |
|
-4 |
To convert from C° to F° use:
\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)
\(F° = {9 \over 5}(-20) + 32\)
\(F° = {-180 \over 5} + 32\)
\(F° = -36 + 32 = -4\)
Materials like metals that transfer heat efficiently are called:
refractors |
|
insulators |
|
conductors |
|
reflectors |
Heat is always transferred from warmer to cooler environments and conduction is the simplest way this transfer can occur. It is accomplished through direct contact between materials and materials like metals that transfer heat efficiently are called conductors while those that conduct heat poorly, such as plastic, are called insulators.
Which of the following is the correct order for types of radiation from longest to shortest wavelength?
visible light → ultraviolet light → radio waves |
|
infrared waves → microwaves → ultraviolet light |
|
microwaves → radio waves → visible light |
|
radio waves → visible light → gamma rays |
The electromagnetic spectrum covers all possible wavelengths and frequencies of radiation. From lowest frequency (longest wavelength) to highest frequency (shortest wavelength) radiation: radio waves → microwaves → infrared waves → visible light → ultraviolet light → X-rays → gamma rays.
