I biome is made up of naturally occurring flora and fauna. Fauna is which of the following?
animals
A biome is a large naturally occurring community of flora (plants) and fauna (animals) occupying a major habitat (home or environment).
A right angle measures:
90°
A right angle measures 90 degrees and is the intersection of two perpendicular lines. In diagrams, a right angle is indicated by a small box completing a square with the perpendicular lines.
Which of the following does not filter air as part of the respiratory system?
epiglottis
After air enters through the nose, it passes through the nasal cavity which filters, moistens, and warms it. Further filtering takes place in the pharynx, which also helps protect against infection, and then in the trachea which is just past the epiglottis which prevents food from entering the airway.
The formula specifying Ohm's law is which of the following?
V = IR
Ohm's law specifies the relationship between voltage (V), current (I), and resistance (R) in an electrical circuit: V = IR.
Specific gravity is a comparison of the density of an object with the density of:
water
Specific gravity is the ratio of the density of equal volumes of a substance and water and is measured by a hyrdometer.
Which of the following is not a characteristic of a ceramic?
low density
Ceramics are mixtures of metallic and nonmetallic elements that withstand exteme thermal, chemical, and pressure environments. They have a high melting point, low corrosive action, and are chemically stable. Examples include rock, sand, clay, glass, brick, and porcelain.
Which of the following is a mixed number?
\(1 {2 \over 5} \)
A rational number (or fraction) is represented as a ratio between two integers, a and b, and has the form \({a \over b}\) where a is the numerator and b is the denominator. An improper fraction (\({5 \over 3} \)) has a numerator with a greater absolute value than the denominator and can be converted into a mixed number (\(1 {2 \over 3} \)) which has a whole number part and a fractional part.
