Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Arterioles diverge into capillary beds. Capillary beds contain a large number (10 to 100) of capillaries that branch among the cells and tissues of the body. Capillaries are narrow-diameter tubes that can fit red blood cells through in single file and are the sites for the exchange of nutrients, waste, and oxygen with tissues at the cellular level. Fluid also crosses into the interstitial space from the capillaries. The capillaries converge again into venules that connect to minor veins that finally connect to major veins that take blood high in carbon dioxide back to the heart. Veins are blood vessels that bring blood back to the heart. The major veins drain blood from the same organs and limbs that the major arteries supply. Fluid is also brought back to the heart via the lymphatic system. Q: Capillaries are narrow-diameter tubes that can fit red blood cells through in single file and are the sites for the exchange of what? Choices: - proteins - fluids - components - nutrients A:
Answer: nutrients

Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: until all atoms have octets. Because some atoms will lose electrons and some atoms will gain electrons, there is no overall change in the number of electrons, but individual atoms acquire a nonzero electric charge. Those that lose electrons become positively charged, and those that gain electrons become negatively charged. Charged atoms are called ions. Because opposite charges attract (while like charges repel), these oppositely charged ions attract each other, forming ionic bonds. The resulting compounds are called ionic compounds and are the primary subject of this chapter. The second way for an atom to obtain an octet of electrons is by sharing electrons with another atom. These shared electrons simultaneously occupy the outermost shell of more than one atom. The bond made by electron sharing is called a covalent bond. Covalent bonding and covalent compounds will be discussed in Chapter 4 "Covalent Bonding and Simple Molecular Compounds". Q: Because opposite charges attract, oppositely charged ions attract each other to form what? Choices: - nuclear bonds - particle bonds - soluble bonds - ionic bonds A:
Answer: ionic bonds

Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Making Connections: Real-World ConnectionsFilling the Tank Differences in the thermal expansion of materials can lead to interesting effects at the gas station. One example is the dripping of gasoline from a freshly filled tank on a hot day. Gasoline starts out at the temperature of the ground under the gas station, which is cooler than the air temperature above. The gasoline cools the steel tank when it is filled. Both gasoline and steel tank expand as they warm to air temperature, but gasoline expands much more than steel, and so it may overflow. This difference in expansion can also cause problems when interpreting the gasoline gauge. The actual amount (mass) of gasoline left in the tank when the gauge hits "empty" is a lot less in the summer than in the winter. The gasoline has the same volume as it does in the winter when the "add fuel" light goes on, but because the gasoline has expanded, there is less mass. If you are used to getting another 40 miles on "empty" in the winter, bewareyou will probably run out much more quickly in the summer. Q: The actual amount (mass) of gasoline left in the tank when the gauge hits "empty" is a lot less in the summer than in the winter. the gasoline has the same volume as it does in the winter when the "add fuel" light goes on, but because the gasoline has expanded, there is what? Choices: - lower gravity - same mass - more mass - less mass A:
Answer:
less mass
