Which of the following is not true about simple magnets?
all of these are untrue |
|
opposite poles attract each other |
|
opposite poles repel each other |
|
same poles repel each other |
Simple magnets have two poles, north and south, and opposite poles attract each other (N attracts S, S attracts N). Likewise, the same pole of two magnets repel (N repels N, S repels S). The Earth has a magnetic field and North and South Poles which enables the use of a magnetic compass to determine direction.
The __________ is a system of muscles that allows breathing.
trachea |
|
bronchioles |
|
pulmonary |
|
diaphragm |
The diaphragm is a system of muscles that allows breathing. During inhalation, the diaphragm expands and air rushes in to fill the space created. Then, during exhalation, the diaphragm contracts and forces the air back out.
Plant cells are surrounded by:
only a cell membrane |
|
only a cell wall |
|
a cell membrane and a cell wall |
|
neither a cell membrane nor a cell wall |
Animal cells are surrounded by a semipermeable membrane which allows for the transfer of water and oxygen to and from the cell. In plant cells, the cell membrane is surrounded by a somewhat rigid cell wall which provides the cell structure and support.
What part of the brain is responsible for the major senses (thinking, hearing, seeing)?
brainstem |
|

The cerebrum is the major part of the brain and is responsible for the main senses (thinking, hearing, seeing).
Which of these represents the path of blood flow through the heart?
left atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → right ventricle |
|
right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle |
|
right atrium → left ventricle → lungs → left atrium → right ventricle |
|
left atrium → left ventricle → lungs → right atrium → right ventricle |
To provide oxygen to the body, blood flows through the heart in a path formed by the right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle → body. When blood enters the right side of the heart it is deoxygenated. It enters the left side of the heart oxygenated after traveling to the lungs.
