1

In cell biology, where does DNA replication take place?

64% Answer Correctly

Golgi apparatus

nucleus

mitochondria

cytoplasm


Solution

The cell nucleus contains the genetic material of the cell and is where DNA replication takes place.


2

Someone who has Rh-factor __________ blood cannot receive blood with a __________ type.

57% Answer Correctly

antigen, negative

positive, negative

negative, positive

positive, antigen


Solution

Blood transfer is limited by the type and Rh factor of the blood. Someone who has Rh-factor negative blood cannot receive blood with a positive type but a person with Rh-factor positive type blood can receive Rh-negative blood. Type O negative blood is the universal donor because it can be given to a person with any blood type. Type AB positive is the universal recipient meaning someone with this blood type can receive any other type of blood.

Convert 0C° to F°.

72% Answer Correctly

-32

32

16

0


Solution

To convert from C° to F° use:

\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)

\(F° = {9 \over 5}(0) + 32\)

\(F° = 0 + 32 = 32\)

"The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object." This describes which of Newton's laws of motion?

65% Answer Correctly

second

first

fourth

third


Solution

Newton's second law of motion states that The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. This law basically means that the greater the mass of an object, the more force is needed to overcome its inertia.
