Which of these does not contain oxygenated blood?
pulmonary vein |
|
right atrium |
|
left ventricle |
|
aorta |
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.
Which is the proper order of Earth's atmospheric layers from the surface up to space?
mesosphere, thermosphere, stratosphere, troposphere |
|
troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere |
|
thermosphere, mesosphere, stratosphere, troposphere |
|
stratosphere, troposphere, mesosphere, thermosphere |
The troposphere is the closest layer to Earth, followed by the stratosphere, mesosphere, and finally the thermosphere which borders space.

The formula to convert from F° to C° is:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (F° - 32)\)
plugging in our values gives:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (50 - 32)\)
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (18)\)
\(C° = {90 \over 9}\)
\(C° = 10\)
Which of the following substances gives up negatively charged hydroxide ions (OH-) when dissolved in water?
ion |
|
acid |
|
base |
|
hydrogen |
An acid is a substance that gives up positively charged hydrogen ions (H+) when dissolved in water. A base (alkaline) gives up negatively charged hydroxide ions (OH-) when dissolved in water. pH is a scale that measures of how basic or acidic a solution is. Numbered from 0 to 14, solutions with a pH of 7 are neutral, less than 7 are acidic, more than 7 are alkaline.
