"An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force." This describes which of Newton's laws of motion?
third |
|
fourth |
|
second |
|
first |
Also known as the law of inertia, Newton's first law of motion states that An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
Which of these is not a phase in cell division?
megaphase |
|
interphase |
|
anaphase |
|
cytokinesis |
Cell division is the process by which cells replicate genetic material in the nucleus and consists of several phases, beginning with interphase and ending with cytokinesis.
Water has a refractive index of 1.33. Which of the following is true?
light travels 1.33 times slower in a vacuum than it does in water |
|
light is 1.33 times brighter in a vacuum than it is in water |
|
light is 1.33 times dimmer in a vacuum than it is in water |
|
light travels 1.33 times faster in a vacuum than it does in water |
The speed of light varies based on the material that the waves are passing through. The refractive index of a material indicates how easily light travels through it compared to how easily light travels through a vacuum. For example, the refractive index of water is 1.33, meaning that light travels 1.33 times faster in a vacuum than it does in water.
In a eukaryotic cell, which organelles deal with proteins?
Golgi apparatus |
|
all of these deal with proteins |
|
ribosomes |
|
endoplasmic reticulum |
The nucleus of a eukaryotic cell contains the genetic material of the cell and is surrounded by cytoplasm which contains many organelles. Ribosomes produce proteins, endoplasmic reticulum helps synthesize proteins and fats, and Golgi apparatus prepares proteins for use.
Bronchioles, alveolus, and capillaries are vital parts of which bodily system?
circulation |
|
digestion |
|
nervous |
|
respiration |
The trachea branches into the left and right bronchi which each lead to a lung where the bronchi subdivide into smaller tubes called bronchioles. Each bronchiole ends in a small sac called an alveolus which allows oxygen from the air to enter the bloodstream via tiny blood vessels called capillaries.
