The formula for acceleration is which of the following?
\(\vec{a} = { m \over \vec{F} }\) |
|
\(\vec{a} = { \vec{F} \over m }\) |
|
\(\vec{a} = { m \over F }\) |
|
\(\vec{a} = \vec{F} m\) |
Newton's second law of motion leads to the formula for acceleration which is a measure of the rate of change of velocity per unit time and, if you solve for positive acceleration, reveals how much net force is needed to overcome an object's mass. The formula for acceleration is \(\vec{a} = { \vec{F} \over m }\) or, solving for force, \(\vec{F} = m\vec{a}\).
The two heart chambers that pump blood called:
ventricles |
|
valves |
|
atria |
|
aorta |
The heart is the organ that drives the circulatory system. In humans, it consists of four chambers with two that collect blood called atria and two that pump blood called ventricles. The heart's valves prevent blood pumped out of the ventricles from flowing back into the heart.
Which of the following is igneous rock?
granite |
|
marble |
|
sandstone |
|
shale |
The Earth's rocks fall into three categories based on how they're formed. Igneous rock (granite, basalt, obsidian) is formed from the hardening of molten rock (lava), sedimentary rock (shale, sandstone, coal) is formed by the gradual despositing and cementing of rock and other debris, and metamorphic rock (marble, slate, quartzite) which is formed when existing rock is altered though pressure, temperature, or chemical processes.
The connective tissue that connects bones to other bones at joints is called:
ligaments |
|
knuckles |
|
tendons |
|
cartilage |
Tough fibrous cords of connective tissue called tendons connect muscles to the skeleton while another type of connective tissue called ligaments connect bones to other bones at joints (elbow, knee, fingers, spinal column).
The universal recipient blood type can recieve any other blood type. Which blood type is the universal recipient?
AB |
|
O-negative |
|
O |
|
AB-positive |
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.
