Force is measured in newtons (N) with 1 N being the force required to impart an acceleration of:
1 mph to a mass of 1 kg |
|
1 m/s to a mass of 1 kg |
|
1 m/s2 to a mass of 1 kg |
|
1 m/s2 to a mass of 1 kg/s2 |
Weight is a force that describes the attraction of gravity on an object. Force is measured in newtons (N) with 1 N being the force required to impart an acceleration of 1 m/s2 to a mass of 1 kg.
In fermentation, what replaces oxygen in anaerobic respiration?
ascorbic acid or peptides |
|
water |
|
lactic acid or alcohol |
|
starches |
If no oxygen is present, cellular respiration is anaerobic and will result in fermentation where either lactic acid or alcohol is used instead of oxygen.
Blood is created in:
bone marrow |
|
the liver |
|
red blood cells |
|
the heart |
Blood is created in bone marrow and is made up of cells suspended in liquid plasma. Red blood cells carry oxygen, white blood cells fight infection, and platelets are cell fragments that allow blood to clot.
The two heart chambers that pump blood called:
ventricles |
|
atria |
|
aorta |
|
valves |
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.
Elements in the same group in the Periodic Table of the Elements have the same:
number of atomic mass units |
|
number of electrons in their outer electron shell |
|
number of electrons |
|
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.
