Answer the following question given this paragraph: The wavelength of a transverse wave can be measured as the distance between two adjacent crests. The wavelength of a longitudinal wave can be measured as the distance between two adjacent compressions. Q: The wavelength of a what type of wave can be measured as the distance between two adjacent compressions? Choices: - horizontal - lateral - vertical - longitudinal A:
longitudinal

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Hypersecretion by an endocrine gland is often caused by a tumor. For example, a tumor of the pituitary gland can cause hypersecretion of growth hormone. If this occurs in childhood, it results in very long arms and legs and abnormally tall stature by adulthood. The condition is commonly known as gigantism (see Figure below ). Q: A tumor of what gland can cause hypersecretion of growth hormone? Choices: - tissues gland - Pancreas - Parathyroid - pituitary gland A:
pituitary gland

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Figure 40.10 The mammalian circulatory system is divided into three circuits: the systemic circuit, the pulmonary circuit, and the coronary circuit. Blood is pumped from veins of the systemic circuit into the right atrium of the heart, then into the right ventricle. Blood then enters the pulmonary circuit, and is oxygenated by the lungs. From the pulmonary circuit, blood re-enters the heart through the left atrium. From the left ventricle, blood re-enters the systemic circuit through the aorta and is distributed to the rest of the body. The coronary circuit, which provides blood to the heart, is not shown. Q: What part of the heart receives the blood is pumped from veins of the systemic circuit? Choices: - left atrium - left ventricle - right ventricle - right atrium A:
right atrium

Answer the following question given this paragraph: The type of atom is determined by the atomic number (i. e. the number of protons). The atomic mass of an atom is approximately the number of protons plus the number of neutrons. Typically, the atomic mass listed in a periodic table is an average, weighted by the natural abundances of different isotopes. Q: Adding the number of protons plus the number of neutrons in an atom, decides it's approximate mass, what is another word for this value? Choices: - electron count - atomic mass - real number - atomic number A:
atomic number
