The two heart chambers that collect blood are called:
atria |
|
valves |
|
aorta |
|
ventricles |
The heart is the organ that drives the circulatory system. In humans, it consists of four chambers with two that collect blood called atria and two that pump blood called ventricles. The heart's valves prevent blood pumped out of the ventricles from flowing back into the heart.
When light travels between two substances it bends. This is called:
conduction |
|
refraction |
|
reflection |
|
convection |
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?
-100 |
|
100 |
|
\(135 {5 \over 9}\) |
|
0 |
The formula to convert from F° to C° is:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (F° - 32)\)
plugging in our values gives:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (212 - 32)\)
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (180) = {{180 \times 5} \over 9}\)
\(C° = {900 \over 9}\)
\(C° = 100\)
__________ is caused by a lack of Vitamin C.
anemia |
|
diabetes |
|
scurvy |
|
shingles |
Scurvy is a difficiency disease caused by a lack of Vitamin C in the diet.
What part of the food chain serves only as food for other organisms?
primary consumers |
|
producers |
|
decomposers |
|
secondary consumers |
Producers (autotrophs) serve as a food source for other organisms. Typical producers are plants that can make their own food through photosynthesis and certain bacteria that are capable of converting inorganic substances into food through chemosynthesis
