Q: What is the interaction of waves with other waves called? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: When two or more waves meet, they interact with each other. The interaction of waves with other waves is called wave interference . Wave interference may occur when two waves that are traveling in opposite directions meet. The two waves pass through each other, and this affects their amplitude. Amplitude is the maximum distance the particles of the medium move from their resting positions when a wave passes through. How amplitude is affected by wave interference depends on the type of interference. Interference can be constructive or destructive. Choices: - wave mixing - wave induction - wave dancing - wave interference A:
wave interference

Q: What type of radioactive decay is generally only dangerous when emitted inside the body? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: All types of radioactive decay pose risks to living things, but alpha decay is the least dangerous. That's because alpha particles are relatively heavy, so they can travel only a few centimeters through the air. They also are not very penetrating. For example, they can't pass through a sheet of paper or thin layer of clothing. They may burn the skin, but they can't penetrate to the tissues underneath the skin. However, if alpha particles are emitted inside the body, they can do more damage. One way this can happen is by inhaling cigarette smoke. People who smoke actually inhale the radioactive element polonium-210. It undergoes alpha decay in the lungs. Over time, exposure to alpha particles may cause lung cancer. Choices: - ionic decay - variant decay - nucleus decay - alpha decay A:
alpha decay

Q: Q: If everything in a system stays the same but the pressure deceases, gas bubbles will change in what way? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Gas bubbles get bigger when they are under less pressure. Choices: - they multiply - they pop - they get smaller - they get bigger A:
A: they get bigger

Question: Q: What layer high in the atmosphere protects living things from most of the sun's harmful uv rays? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Earth's atmosphere is vital to life. The atmosphere provides the oxygen and carbon dioxide living things need for photosynthesis and respiration. Living things also need the ozone layer high in the atmosphere. Upper level ozone protects them from most of the Sun's harmful UV rays. Choices: - Mesosphere - troposphere - stratosphere - ozone layer A:
Answer: ozone layer

Q: How do glucose, ions, and other larger molecules leave the blood? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: 20.3 | Capillary Exchange By the end of this section, you will be able to: Identify the primary mechanisms of capillary exchange Distinguish between capillary hydrostatic pressure and blood colloid osmotic pressure, explaining the contribution of each to net filtration pressure Compare filtration and reabsorption Explain the fate of fluid that is not reabsorbed from the tissues into the vascular capillaries The primary purpose of the cardiovascular system is to circulate gases, nutrients, wastes, and other substances to and from the cells of the body. Small molecules, such as gases, lipids, and lipid-soluble molecules, can diffuse directly through the membranes of the endothelial cells of the capillary wall. Glucose, amino acids, and ionsincluding sodium, potassium, calcium, and chlorideuse transporters to move through specific channels in the membrane by facilitated diffusion. Glucose, ions, and larger molecules may also leave the blood through intercellular clefts. Larger molecules can pass through the pores of fenestrated capillaries, and even large plasma proteins can pass through the great gaps in the sinusoids. Some large proteins in blood plasma can move into and out of the endothelial cells packaged within vesicles by endocytosis and exocytosis. Water moves by osmosis. Choices: - through cell membranes - through capillary tips - through veinous fissures - through intercellular clefts A:
**Answer**
through intercellular clefts

Q: Q: The eyes of all vertebrates possess a single one of these structures? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Choices: - vessel - sty - stalk - lens A:
A: lens
