In cell biology, cytokinesis results in two separate:
cells |
|
chromatids |
|
nuclei |
|
chromosomes |
During cell division, the cytokinesis phase occurs when cytoplasm and cell membranes complete their separation resulting in two separate cells.
Blood pressure is generally highest in which of the following?
arteries |
|
capillaries |
|
heart |
|
veins |
Arteries are thick-walled because they carry oxygenated blood at high pressure, veins are comparatively thin-walled as they carry low-pressure deoxygenated blood.
Momentum is a measure of how difficult it is for a moving object to stop. Which of the following is the formula for momentum?
\(\vec{p} = { \vec{v} \over m}\) |
|
none of these |
|
\(\vec{p} = m\vec{v}\) |
|
\(\vec{p} = {m \over \vec{v}}\) |
Momentum is a measure of how difficult it is for a moving object to stop and is calculated by multiplying the object's mass by its velocity: \(\vec{p} = m\vec{v}\). Like velocity, momentum is a vector quantity as it expresses force applied in a specific direction.
A major difference between sound waves and light waves is which of the following?
a sound wave cannot travel through a vacuum |
|
all of these are correct |
|
a sound wave is mechanical while a light wave is electromagnetic |
|
a sound wave is much slower than a light wave |
A vibrating object produces a sound wave that travels outwardly from the object through a medium (any liquid or solid matter). The vibration disturbs the particles in the surrounding medium, those particles disturb the particules next to them, and so on, as the sound propagates away from the vibration.
Velocity is the rate at which an object changes position. What is the formula for velocity?
\(\vec{v} = \vec{d}t \) |
|
\(\vec{v} = { t \over \vec{d} } \) |
|
\(\vec{v} = { \vec{d} \over t } \) |
|
none of these |
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 \(\vec{v} = { \vec{d} \over t } \)
