Which part of the respiratory system helps protect against infection?
trachea |
|
pharynx |
|
epiglottis |
|
nasal cavity |
After air enters through the nose, it passes through the nasal cavity which filters, moistens, and warms it. Further filtering takes place in the pharynx, which also helps protect against infection, and then in the trachea which is just past the epiglottis, responsible for preventing food from entering the airway.
Which of the following represents the largest value?
1 kL |
|
1 ML |
|
1 mL |
|
1 cL |
Mega (M) is 106, kilo (k) is 103, centi (c) is 10-2, milli (m) is 10-3 so 1 ML represents the largest value.
In cell biology, the primary difference between anaerobic and aerobic respiration is that aerobic respiration requires:
water |
|
sugar |
|
oxygen |
|
mitochondria |
Some plant cells produce their own energy through photosynthesis which is the process by which sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water react to make sugar and oxygen. Animal cells cannot produce their own energy and, instead, generate energy when mitochondria consume outside sugar and oxygen through aerobic respiration.
In the foood chain, producers serve as a food source for other organisms. Typical producers are plants that can make their own food through photosynthesis and certain bacteria that are capable of converting inorganic substances into food through:
photosynthesis |
|
chemosynthesis |
|
autotrophs |
|
decomposition |
Producers (autotrophs) serve as a food source for other organisms. Typical producers are plants that can make their own food through photosynthesis and certain bacteria that are capable of converting inorganic substances into food through chemosynthesis
Which of these is not a phase in cell division?
cytokinesis |
|
interphase |
|
megaphase |
|
anaphase |
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.
