Which of blood component allows blood to clot?
white blood cells |
|
red blood cells |
|
platelets |
|
plasma |
Blood is created in bone marrow and is made up of cells suspended in liquid plasma. Red blood cells carry oxygen, white blood cells fight infection, and platelets are cell fragments that allow blood to clot.

plasma |
|
red |
|
platelets |
|
white |
Blood is categorized into four different types (A, B, AB, and O) based on the type of antigens found on the outside of the red blood cells. Additionally, each type can be negative or positive based on whether or not the cells have an antigen called the Rh factor.
Large, puffy, mid-altitude clouds with a flat base and a rounded top describe which of the following?
cumulus clouds |
|
cirrus clouds |
|
stratus clouds |
|
fog |
Cumulus clouds are large, puffy, mid-altitude clouds with a flat base and a rounded top. These clouds grow upward and can develop into a cumulonimbus or thunderstorm cloud.
Which of the following is not a vector quantity?
acceleration |
|
mass |
|
velocity |
|
momentum |
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: \(\vec{v}\)
Scalar quantities are fully described by which of the following?
a magnitude and a polarity |
|
a magnitude and a direction |
|
a magnitude only |
|
a direction only |
