Answer the following question given this paragraph: The moment magnitude scale is the favored method of measuring earthquake magnitudes. It measures the total energy released by an earthquake. Moment magnitude is calculated by two things. One is the length of the fault break. The other is the distance the ground moves along the fault. Q: What scale measures the total energy released by an earthquake? Choices: - moment radiation scale - direct magnitude scale - moment identification scale - moment magnitude scale A:
moment magnitude scale
Answer the following question given this paragraph: In words, cellular respiration uses oxygen gas to break apart the carbon-hydrogen bonds in glucose and release their energy to build 38 molecules of ATP. Most of this process occurs within the mitochondria of the cell. Carbon dioxide and water are waste products. This is similar to burning, in which oxygen breaks the carbon-hydrogen bonds in a fuel and releases their chemical energy as heat and light. Again, carbon dioxide and water are waste. Q: What uses oxygen gas to break apart the carbon-hydrogen bonds in glucose and release their energy? Choices: - electromagnetic respiration - classical respiration - energetic respiration - cellular respiration A:
cellular respiration
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: CHAPTER REVIEW 25.1 Physical Characteristics of Urine The kidney glomerulus filters blood mainly based on particle size to produce a filtrate lacking cells or large proteins. Most of the ions and molecules in the filtrate are needed by the body and must be reabsorbed farther down the nephron tubules, resulting in the formation of urine. Urine characteristics change depending on water intake, exercise, environmental temperature, and nutrient intake. Urinalysis analyzes characteristics of the urine and is used to diagnose diseases. A minimum of 400 to 500 mL urine must be produced daily to rid the body of wastes. Excessive quantities of urine may indicate diabetes insipidus or diabetes mellitus. The pH range of urine is 4.5 to 8.0, and is affected by diet. Osmolarity ranges from 50 to 1200 milliosmoles, and is a reflection of the amount of water being recovered or lost by renal nephrons. Q: The kidney glomerulus filters blood mainly based on particle size to produce a filtrate lacking cells or large what? Choices: - lipids - carbohydrates - steroids - proteins A:
A: proteins
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Figure 8.12 The colors of visible light do not carry the same amount of energy. Violet has the shortest wavelength and therefore carries the most energy, whereas red has the longest wavelength and carries the least amount of energy. (credit: modification of work by NASA). Q: Violet and red are two types of what kind of light? Choices: - infrared - ultraviolet - radioactive - visible A:
Answer: visible

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Oxygen has an oxidation state of -2 in most of its compounds. Oxygen is the second most electronegative element, so it also tends to be assigned all shared electrons. Exceptions include O 2 (oxidation state = 0), peroxides, in which two oxygen atoms are connected by a single bond (oxidation state usually = -1), and any compound in which oxygen is bonded to fluorine (pretty rare and reactive). Q: What is the name of the second most electronegative element? Choices: - nitrogen - Hydrogen - carbon - oxygen A:
(A).
oxygen
