archaea |
|
animalia |
|

The heart __________ blood.
creates |
|
deoxygenates |
|
oxygenates |
|
filters |
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.
Heat is always transferred from __________ to __________ environments.
warmer, cooler |
|
empty, dense |
|
dense, empty |
|
cooler, warmer |
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.
Atoms of an element whose atoms can vary in the number of neutrons in their nucleus are called which of the following?
ions |
|
products |
|
isotopes |
|
reactants |
The atomic mass of an element listed in the Periodic Table represents the average mass of a single atom of that element and is measured in atomic mass units (amu). This number is an average as some elements have isotopes with atoms that vary in their number of neturons and, therefore, differ in weight.
