Which of the following is a decomposer?
fungi
Decomposers (saprotrophs) are organisms such as bacteria and fungi that break down the organic matter in the dead bodies of plants and animals into simple nutrients.
Which of these is not a recognized blood type?
AO
Blood is categorized into four different types (A, B, AB, and O) based on the type of antigens found on the outside of the red blood cells. Additionally, each type can be negative or positive based on whether or not the cells have an antigen called the Rh factor.
Menstruation occurs when:
the ovum fails to become fertilized
If the ovum fails to become fertilized, the lining of the uterus sloughs off during menstruation. From puberty to menopause, this cycle of menstruation repeats monthly (except during pregnancy).
Find the average of the following numbers: 17, 13, 17, 13.
To find the average of these 4 numbers add them together then divide by 4:
\( \frac{17 + 13 + 17 + 13}{4} \) = \( \frac{60}{4} \) = 15
The respiratory and circulatory systems are similar in that they:
transport oxygen
Like the respiratory system, the circulatory system serves to transport oxygen throughout the body while removing carbon dioxide. In addition, the circulatory system transports nutrients from the digestive system.
If a = 4, b = 2, c = 9, and d = 4, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?
Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:
p = a + b + c + d
p = 4 + 2 + 9 + 4
p = 19
Heat is always transferred from __________ to __________ environments.
warmer, cooler
Heat is always transferred from warmer to cooler environments and conduction is the simplest way this transfer can occur. It is accomplished through direct contact between materials and materials like metals that transfer heat efficiently are called conductors while those that conduct heat poorly, such as plastic, are called insulators.
What type of energy does an automotive battery produce?
direct current
An automotive battery produces direct current for use by automotive systems.
