Bronchioles, alveolus, and capillaries are vital parts of which bodily system?
digestion |
|
circulation |
|
respiration |
|
nervous |
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.
Which of these does not contain oxygenated blood?
left ventricle |
|
right atrium |
|
aorta |
|
pulmonary vein |
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.
An element in the physical state of __________ maintains neither a constant volume nor a constant shape.
gas |
|
solid |
|
liquid |
|
plasma |
The gaseous state occurs at a higher temperature range than the solid and liquid states of the same substance. In this state, molecules flow very freely around each other and will spread out as far as they're able. Gases maintain neither a constant volume nor a constant shape.
The asteroids in the Kuiper belt are composed of which of the following?
frozen methane, ammonia, and water |
|
minerals |
|
gaseous methane, ammonia, and water |
|
rock |
The Kuiper Belt is similar to the asteroid belt but much larger. Extending beyond the orbit of Neptune, it contains objects composed mostly of frozen methane, ammonia, and water. Most notably, the Kuiper Belt is home to Pluto, a dwarf planet that, until a 2006 reclassification, was considered the ninth planet of the solar system.
Work is measured in:
amps |
|
joules or newton-meters |
|
watts |
|
horsepower |
Work is performed on an object when an applied force causes displacement along the same vector. Measured in joules (J) or newton-meters (Nm), work is calculated by multiplying force times displacement: \(W = \vec{F}\vec{d}\)
