Earth's history is divided into time periods, which of these is the longest time period?
age |
|
era |
|
eon |
|
epoch |
The Earth is approximately 4.6 billion years old and its history is divided into time periods based on the events that took place and the forms of life that were dominant during those periods. The largest graduation of time is the eon and each eon is subdivided into eras, eras into periods, periods into epochs, and epochs into ages.
In cell biology, cytokinesis results in two separate:
chromatids |
|
cells |
|
nuclei |
|

An endoskeleton (internal skeleton) is a charateristic of vertebrate animals, including humans.
Velocity is the rate at which an object changes position. What is the formula for velocity?
\(\vec{v} = \vec{d}t \) |
|
none of these |
|
\(\vec{v} = { t \over \vec{d} } \) |
|
\(\vec{v} = { \vec{d} \over t } \) |
Velocity is the rate at which an object changes position. Rate is measured in time and position is measured in displacement so the formula for velocity becomes \(\vec{v} = { \vec{d} \over t } \)
A subatomic particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom. It carries a negative electric charge. This desribes which of the following?
isotope |
|
electron |
|
neutron |
|
proton |
An electron is a subatomic particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom. It carries a negative electric charge. Generally, an atom has the same number of negative electrons orbiting the nucleus as it does positive protons inside.
