Answer the following question given this paragraph: The third conservation law is conservation of angular momentum. This vector quantity is the product of rotational velocity and rotational inertia. In any closed system (including the universe) the quantity of angular momentum is fixed. Angular momentum can be transferred from one body to another, but cannot be lost or gained. If a system has its angular momentum changed from the outside it is caused by a torque. Torque is a force applied at a distance from the center of rotation. Q: Which of newton's laws states that the quantity of angular momentum in a closed system is fixed? Choices: - fourth conservation law - sixth conservation law - second conservation law - third conservation law A:
third conservation law
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Exothermic reactions in organisms are called catabolic reactions . These reactions break down molecules into smaller units and release energy. An example of a catabolic reaction is the breakdown of glucose, which releases energy that cells need to carry out life processes. Endothermic reactions in organisms are called anabolic reactions . These reactions build up bigger molecules from smaller ones. An example of an anabolic reaction is the joining of amino acids to form a protein. Which type of reactionscatabolic or anabolicdo you think occur when your body digests food?. Q: Exothermic reactions in organisms are called what? Choices: - nuclear reactions - nebular reactions - biogenic reactions - catabolic reactions A:
catabolic reactions
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Watch this animation (http://openstaxcollege. org/l/p53_cancer) to learn more about the use of p53 in fighting cancer. Proto-oncogenes are positive cell-cycle regulators. When mutated, proto-oncogenes can become oncogenes and cause cancer. Overexpression of the oncogene can lead to uncontrolled cell growth. This is because oncogenes can alter transcriptional activity, stability, or protein translation of another gene that directly or indirectly controls cell growth. An example of an oncogene involved in cancer is a protein called myc. Myc is a transcription factor that is aberrantly activated in Burkett's Lymphoma, a cancer of the lymph system. Overexpression of myc transforms normal B cells into cancerous cells that continue to grow uncontrollably. High B-cell numbers can result in tumors that can interfere with normal bodily function. Patients with Burkett's lymphoma can develop tumors on their jaw or in their mouth that interfere with the ability to eat. Q: Proto-oncogenes are positive cell-cycle regulators but when mutated, they can become what? Choices: - microbes and cause cancer - bacteria and cause cancer - cultigens and cause cancer - oncogenes and cause cancer A:
A: oncogenes and cause cancer
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: There are two major types of seismic waves. Body waves travel through the Earth's interior. Surface waves travel along the ground surface. In an earthquake, body waves are responsible for sharp jolts. Surface waves are responsible for rolling motions that do most of the damage in an earthquake. Q: Body waves and surface waves are the two major types of what, which occur during earthquakes? Choices: - tidal waves - current waves - sound waves - seismic waves A:
Answer: seismic waves

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Glial Cells Glial cells, or neuroglia or simply glia, are the other type of cell found in nervous tissue. They are considered to be supporting cells, and many functions are directed at helping neurons complete their function for communication. The name glia comes from the Greek word that means "glue," and was coined by the German pathologist Rudolph Virchow, who wrote in 1856: "This connective substance, which is in the brain, the spinal cord, and the special sense nerves, is a kind of glue (neuroglia) in which the nervous elements are planted. " Today, research into nervous tissue has shown that there are many deeper roles that these cells play. And research may find much more about them in the future. There are six types of glial cells. Four of them are found in the CNS and two are found in the PNS. Table 12.2 outlines some common characteristics and functions. Q: What nervous tissue cells play a supporting role to neurons? Choices: - reissner cells - mammalian cells - axial cells - glial cells A:
**Answer**
glial cells

Answer the following question given this paragraph: 4.6 Connections between Cells and Cellular Activities Animal cells communicate via their extracellular matrices and are connected to each other via tight junctions, desmosomes, and gap junctions. Plant cells are connected and communicate with each other via plasmodesmata. When protein receptors on the surface of the plasma membrane of an animal cell bind to a substance in the extracellular matrix, a chain of reactions begins that changes activities taking place within the cell. Plasmodesmata are channels between adjacent plant cells, while gap junctions are channels between adjacent animal cells. However, their structures are quite different. A tight junction is a watertight seal between two adjacent cells, while a desmosome acts like a spot weld. Q: Plasmodesmata and gap junctions are channels between adjacent cells of what respective types? Choices: - healthy and sick - new and old - plant and fungus - plant and animal A:
(Answer)
plant and animal
