When light travels between two substances it bends. This is called:
refraction |
|
reflection |
|
convection |
|
conduction |
Because different materials have different refractive indices, light changes speed when passing from one material to another. This causes the light to bend (refraction) at an angle that depends on the change in refractive index between the materials. The greater the difference, the higher the angle of refraction.

To convert from C° to F° use:
\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)
\(F° = {9 \over 5}(0) + 32\)
\(F° = 0 + 32 = 32\)
Which of these is not a function of bone in the human skeletal system?
produce blood cells |
|
store minerals |
|
store vitamins |
|
protect bodily organs |
Hard bones provide primary support for the endoskeleton while more flexible cartilage is found at the end of all bones, at the joints, and in the nose and ears. In addition to providing support and protecting bodily organs, bones also produce blood cells and store minerals like calcium.
A person's genotype is their genetic makeup and includes:
dominant alleles |
|
both dominant and recessive alleles |
|
phenotypes |
|
recessive alleles |
A person's genotype is their genetic makeup and includes both dominant and recessive alleles. Phenotype is how the genes express themselves in physical characteristics.
Which of these is important for the body's maintenance, growth, and repair?
fats |
|
protein |
|
carbohydrates |
|
fiber |
Found in both animal sources (meat, fish, eggs, cheese) and vegetables (beans, nuts, some grains), proteins are important for the body's maintenance, growth, and repair.
