-40°F is how many °C?
\({40 \over 9}\) |
|
\(-{40 \over 9}\) |
|
-40 |
|
-8 |
The formula to convert from F° to C° is:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (F° - 32)\)
plugging in our values gives:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (-40 - 32)\)
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (-72) = {{-72 \times 5} \over 9}\)
\(C° = {-360 \over 9}\)
\(C° = -40\)
Poor balance could indicate an issue with which part of the nervous system?
medulla |
|
cerebellum |
|
cerebrum |
|
spinal cord |

The rate of vibration of sound is called:
period |
|
amplitude |
|
volume |
|
frequency |
The rate of vibration of sound is called frequency and is measured in hertz (Hz). One hertz is one repetition per second and sounds with high frequency have a higher pitch than sounds with lower frequency. Humans can hear sounds in the range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz.

Blood is circulated throughout the body via:
aorta |
|
capillaries |
|
veins |
|
arterioles |
The aorta is the body's largest artery and receives blood from the pulmonary vein via the left ventricle. From there, blood is circulated through the rest of the body through smaller arteries called arterioles that branch out from the heart. Finally, blood is delivered to bodily tissues through capillaries.
