Sample Practice Test Questions
An element in the physical state of __________ maintains a constant volume but their shape depends upon the shape of their container.
liquid
In the liquid state, molecules flow freely around each other and exist at a higher temperature range than the same substance in a solid state. Liquids maintain a constant volume but their shape depends upon the shape of their container.
Which of these is important for the body's maintenance, growth, and repair?
protein
Found in both animal sources (meat, fish, eggs, cheese) and vegetables (beans, nuts, some grains), proteins are important for the body's maintenance, growth, and repair.
If the length of AB equals the length of BD, point B __________ this line segment.
bisects
A line segment is a portion of a line with a measurable length. The midpoint of a line segment is the point exactly halfway between the endpoints. The midpoint bisects (cuts in half) the line segment.
You would measure the amount of voltage between two points in a circuit with a(n):
voltmeter
Voltage (V) is the electrical potential difference between two points. A voltmeter is used to measure the voltage between two points in a circuit.
Convert x-3 to remove the negative exponent.
To convert a negative exponent to a positive exponent, calculate the positive exponent then take the reciprocal.
When light travels between two substances it bends. This is called:
refraction
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.
In cell biology, cytokinesis results in two separate:
cells
During cell division, the cytokinesis phase occurs when cytoplasm and cell membranes complete their separation resulting in two separate cells.
Earth's history is divided into time periods, which of these is the longest time period?
eon
The Earth is approximately 4.6 billion years old and its history is divided into time periods based on the events that took place and the forms of life that were dominant during those periods. The largest graduation of time is the eon and each eon is subdivided into eras, eras into periods, periods into epochs, and epochs into ages.
