In the food chain, omnivores may be which of the following?
secondary or tertiary consumers
Secondary or tertiary consumers may be omnivores.
A(n) __________ is two expressions separated by an equal sign.
equation
An equation is two expressions separated by an equal sign. The key to solving equations is to repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the equal sign and the answer on the other.
Which of the following is the correct order for the engine stroke cycle?
intake, compression, power, exhaust
The stroke cycle order is intake stroke, compression stroke, power stroke, exhaust stroke.
The work done by the sum of all forces acting on a particle equals the change in the kinetic energy of the particle. This defines which of the following?
work-energy theorem
The work-energy theorem states that the work done by the sum of all forces acting on a particle equals the change in the kinetic energy of the particle. Simply put, work imparts kinetic energy to the matter upon which the work is being done.
Which of the following is related to the Cambrian Explosion?
fossil record
The Cambrian period is one of the most significant geological time periods. Lasting about 53 million years, it marked a dramatic burst of changes in life on Earth known as the Cambrian Explosion. It is from this period that the majority of the history of life on Earth, as documented by fossils, is found. Called the fossil record, the layering of these mineralized imprints of organisms preserved in sedementary rock have allowed geologists to build a historical record of plant and animal life on Earth.
A transition zone between two air masses is called:
front
An air mass is a large body of air that has similar moisture (density) and temperature characteristics. A front is a transition zone between two air masses.
Someone who has Rh-factor __________ blood cannot receive blood with a __________ type.
negative, positive
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.
The vehicle's computer system gets data from:
sensors
Sensors provide the data necessary for the vehicle's computer to make decisions and monitor everything from simple vehicle information like tire pressure to complexities like the chemical content of an engine's exhaust.
Friction between two or more solid objects that are not moving relative to each other is called:
static friction
Static friction is friction between two or more solid objects that are not moving relative to each other. An example is the friction that prevents a box on a sloped surface from sliding farther down the surface.
