Universal donor blood can be given to a person with any blood type. Which blood type is the universal donor?
O-negative |
|
AB |
|
O-positive |
|
O |
Blood transfer is limited by the type and Rh factor of the blood. Someone who has Rh-factor negative blood cannot receive blood with a positive type but a person with Rh-factor positive type blood can receive Rh-negative blood. Type O negative blood is the universal donor because it can be given to a person with any blood type. Type AB positive is the universal recipient meaning someone with this blood type can receive any other type of blood.
Which of these is not a phase in cell division?
cytokinesis |
|
megaphase |
|
anaphase |
|
interphase |
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.
In the heart, the __________ artery and vein manage blood flow to the lungs.
capillary |
|
atrial |
|
pulmonary |
|
aorta |
The two largest veins in the body, the venae cavae, pass blood to the right ventricle which pumps the blood to the lungs through the pulmonary artery. Blood picks up oxygen in the lungs and returns it to the left atrium via the pulmonary vein.
Which of the following is not true about simple magnets?
opposite poles repel each other |
|
all of these are untrue |
|
opposite poles attract each other |
|
same poles repel each other |
Simple magnets have two poles, north and south, and opposite poles attract each other (N attracts S, S attracts N). Likewise, the same pole of two magnets repel (N repels N, S repels S). The Earth has a magnetic field and North and South Poles which enables the use of a magnetic compass to determine direction.
Materials like metals that transfer heat efficiently are called:
conductors |
|
refractors |
|
insulators |
|
reflectors |
Heat is always transferred from warmer to cooler environments and conduction is the simplest way this transfer can occur. It is accomplished through direct contact between materials and materials like metals that transfer heat efficiently are called conductors while those that conduct heat poorly, such as plastic, are called insulators.
