Answer the following question given this paragraph: Overview of Systemic Veins Systemic veins return blood to the right atrium. Since the blood has already passed through the systemic capillaries, it will be relatively low in oxygen concentration. In many cases, there will be veins draining organs and regions of the body with the same name as the arteries that supplied these regions and the two often parallel one another. This is often described as a "complementary" pattern. However, there is a great deal more variability in the venous circulation than normally occurs in the arteries. For the sake of brevity and clarity, this text will discuss only the most commonly encountered patterns. However, keep this variation in mind when you move from the classroom to clinical practice. In both the neck and limb regions, there are often both superficial and deeper levels of veins. The deeper veins generally correspond to the complementary arteries. The superficial veins do not normally have direct arterial counterparts, but in addition to returning blood, they also make contributions to the maintenance of body temperature. When the ambient temperature is warm, more blood is diverted to the superficial veins where heat can be more easily dissipated to the environment. In colder weather, there is more constriction of the superficial veins and blood is diverted deeper where the body can retain more of the heat. The "Voyage of Discovery" analogy and stick drawings mentioned earlier remain valid techniques for the study of systemic veins, but veins present a more difficult challenge because there are numerous anastomoses and multiple branches. It is like following a river with many tributaries and channels, several of which interconnect. Tracing blood flow through arteries follows the current in the direction of blood flow, so that we move from the heart through the large arteries and into the smaller arteries to the capillaries. From the capillaries, we move into the smallest veins and follow the direction of blood flow into larger veins and back to the heart. Figure 20.35... Q: Systemic veins return blood low in what to the right atrium? Choices: - dioxide - nutrients - nitrogen - oxygen A:

Ques: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Circadian rhythms are regular changes in biology or behavior that occur in a 24-hour cycle. In humans, for example, blood pressure and body temperature change in a regular way throughout each 24-hour day. Q: What are regular changes in biology or behavior that occur in a 24 hour cycle? Choices: - cognitive rhythm - auditory rhythm - life cycle - circadian rhythm A:
Ans: circadian rhythm

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Digestion consists of mechanical and chemical digestion. Q: There are two types of digestion, mechanical and what else? Choices: - radiation - mineral - thermal - chemical A:
(A).
chemical
Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: To figure out how the solar system formed, we need to put together what we have learned. There are two other important features to consider. First, all the planets orbit in nearly the same flat, disk-like region. Second, all the planets orbit in the same direction around the Sun. These two features are clues to how the solar system formed. Q: All planets exhibit the same or nearly the same direction and shape of what path around the sun? Choices: - revolution - ellipse - nucleus - orbit A:

Ans:orbit
Answer the following question given this paragraph: 2Al(s) + Fe2O3(s) 2Fe(s) + Al2O3(s) + heat to indicate that heat is one of the products. Chemical equations in which heat is shown as either a reactant or a product are called thermochemical equations. In this reaction, the system consists of aluminum, iron, and oxygen atoms; everything else, including the container, makes up the surroundings. During the reaction, so much heat is produced that the iron liquefies. Eventually, the system cools; the iron solidifies as heat is transferred to the surroundings. A process in which heat (q) is transferred from a system to its surroundings is described as exothermic. By convention, q < 0 for an exothermic reaction. Q: Chemical equations in which heat is shown as either a reactant or a product are called what? Choices: - hydroelectric equations - thorium equations - feedstock equations - thermochemical equations A:
thermochemical equations
