Plant cells may generate energy through which of the following?
aerobic respiration |
|
all of these |
|
photosynthesis |
|
anaerobic respiration |
Some plant cells produce their own energy through photosynthesis which is the process by which sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water react to make sugar and oxygen. Animal cells cannot produce their own energy and, instead, generate energy when mitochondria consume outside sugar and oxygen through aerobic respiration.
Which of the following is not a vector quantity?
velocity |
|
momentum |
|
mass |
|
acceleration |
Velocity and displacement are vector quantities which means each is fully described by both a magnitude and a direction. In contrast, scalar quantities are quantities that are fully described by a magnitude only. A variable indicating a vector quantity will often be shown with an arrow symbol: \(\vec{v}\)

|
seasons |
|
the northern lights |

What type of cloud is responsible for fog?
cirrus |
|
cumulus |
|
