Which of these represents the path of blood flow through the heart?
left atrium → left ventricle → lungs → right atrium → right ventricle |
|
right atrium → left ventricle → lungs → left atrium → right ventricle |
|
left atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → right ventricle |
|
right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle |
To provide oxygen to the body, blood flows through the heart in a path formed by the right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle → body. When blood enters the right side of the heart it is deoxygenated. It enters the left side of the heart oxygenated after traveling to the lungs.
Blood is delivered to bodily tissues through:
plasma |
|
capillaries |
|
veins |
|
arterioles |
The aorta is the body's largest artery and receives blood from the pulmonary vein via the left ventricle. From there, blood is circulated through the rest of the body through smaller arteries called arterioles that branch out from the heart. Finally, blood is delivered to bodily tissues through capillaries.
The fossil record is a product of which period of Earth's history?
Jurassic |
|
Cenozoic |
|
Cretaceous |
|
Cambrian |
The Cambrian period is one of the most significant geological time periods. Lasting about 53 million years, it marked a dramatic burst of changes in life on Earth known as the Cambrian Explosion. It is from this period that the majority of the history of life on Earth, as documented by fossils, is found. Called the fossil record, the layering of these mineralized imprints of organisms preserved in sedementary rock have allowed geologists to build a historical record of plant and animal life on Earth.
Generally, an atom has __________ negative electrons orbiting the nucleus as it does positive protons inside.

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.
Which of the following is the formula for power?
\(P = \vec{w}t\) |
|
\(P = {w \over t}\) |
|
\(P = {\vec{w} \over t}\) |
|
\(P = w t\) |
Power is the rate at which work is performed or work per unit time: \(P = {w \over t}\) and is measured in watts (W).
