50°F is how many °C?
58 |
|
-10 |
|
122 |
|
10 |
The formula to convert from F° to C° is:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (F° - 32)\)
plugging in our values gives:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (50 - 32)\)
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (18)\)
\(C° = {90 \over 9}\)
\(C° = 10\)
Which of these is a type of Earth's crust?
sedimentary |
|
oceanic |
|
metamorphic |
|
terrestrial |
The crust is the Earth's outermost layer and is divided into oceanic and continental types. Oceanic crust is 3 miles (5 km) to 6 miles (10 km) thick and is composed primarily of denser rock. Continental crust is 20 to 30 miles (30 to 50 km) thick and composed primarily of less dense rock. The crust makes up approximately one percent of the Earth's total volume.
A subatomic particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom. It carries a negative electric charge. This desribes which of the following?
proton |
|
electron |
|
isotope |
|
neutron |
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.
What part of the food chain serves only as food for other organisms?
producers |
|
secondary consumers |
|
primary consumers |
|
decomposers |
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
In the food chain, consumers are classified as which of the following?
all of these |
|
tertiary |
|
primary |
|
secondary |
Most animals consume other organisms to survive. Consumers (heterotrophs) are divided into three types, primary, secondary, and tertiary, based on their place in the food chain.
