Secondary consumers that also eat producers are known as:
carnivores |
|
herbivores |
|
scavengers |
|
omnivores |
Secondary consumers (carnivores) subsist mainly on primary consumers. Omnivores are secondary consumers that also eat producers. Examples are rats, fish, and chickens.
When light travels between two substances it bends. This is called:
conduction |
|
convection |
|
reflection |
|
refraction |
Because different materials have different refractive indices, light changes speed when passing from one material to another. This causes the light to bend (refraction) at an angle that depends on the change in refractive index between the materials. The greater the difference, the higher the angle of refraction.
212°F is how many °C?
\(135 {5 \over 9}\) |
|
100 |
|
-100 |
|
0 |
The formula to convert from F° to C° is:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (F° - 32)\)
plugging in our values gives:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (212 - 32)\)
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (180) = {{180 \times 5} \over 9}\)
\(C° = {900 \over 9}\)
\(C° = 100\)
Elements that belong to the same period in the Periodic Table of the Elements have the same number of:
electrons |
|
atomic mass units |
|
protons |
|
electron shells |
The rows of the Periodic Table are called periods and contain elements that have the same number of electron shells ordered from lower to higher atomic number.
