In cell biology, the primary difference between anaerobic and aerobic respiration is that aerobic respiration requires:
water |
|
oxygen |
|
sugar |
|
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.
What part of the brain is responsible for for balance, movement, and muscle coordination?
brainstem |
|
cerebellum |
|
medulla |
|
cerebrum |
The cerebellum is a large cluster of nerves at the base of the brain that's responsible for balance, movement, and muscle coordination.
Earth's history is divided into time periods, which of these is the longest time period?
era |
|
eon |
|
epoch |
|
age |
The Earth is approximately 4.6 billion years old and its history is divided into time periods based on the events that took place and the forms of life that were dominant during those periods. The largest graduation of time is the eon and each eon is subdivided into eras, eras into periods, periods into epochs, and epochs into ages.
Which of the following is not a terrestrial planet?
Mercury |
|
Earth |
|
Venus |
|
Jupiter |
The four planets closest to the Sun (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) are called terrestrial (Earth-like) planets because, like the Earth, they're solid with inner metal cores covered by rocky surfaces.
Elements in the same group in the Periodic Table of the Elements have the same:
number of electrons |
|
number of atomic mass units |
|
number of electrons in their outer electron shell |
|
number of electron shells |
The columns of the Periodic Table are called groups and all elements in a group have the same number of electrons in their outer electron shell. The group that an element occupies generally determines its chemical properties as the number of outer shell electrons establishes the way it reacts with other elements to form molecules. So, because each element has the same number of electrons in its outer shell, each has similar reactivity.
