TEAS 7 science quizlet

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Power is a measure of how quickly work is done or energy is transferred. It is defined as the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred. Power is not directly or inversely proportional to time, as it depends on the amount of work done or energy transferred, not the duration over which it is done. The relationship between power and time is not a direct one, so power is unrelated to time. Choice A and B are incorrect because power's relationship with time is not one of direct or inverse proportionality. Choice D is incorrect because power is not simply the product of time and work; it is the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred, which can vary independently of time.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The Linnaean system of classification, developed by Carl Linnaeus, is based on a hierarchical ranking system where organisms are grouped into categories based on shared characteristics. This system organizes organisms into a hierarchy of increasingly specific categories, from broad to narrow, such as kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. The emphasis on a hierarchical ranking system allows for systematic organization and classification of a wide variety of organisms based on their similarities and differences, making it easier to study and understand the diversity of life forms. Choice A is incorrect because the Linnaean system is not primarily focused on evolutionary relationships but rather on shared characteristics for classification. Choice B is incorrect because dichotomous keys are tools used for identifying organisms, not the fundamental basis of the Linnaean system. Choice C is incorrect as the Linnaean system categorizes organisms based on shared characteristics, not shared functions.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Gastritis is the correct answer as it is characterized by inflammation of the inner lining of the stomach. This inflammation can be caused by various factors such as excessive alcohol consumption, prolonged use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), infections, or autoimmune diseases. Symptoms of gastritis may include abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and loss of appetite. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is incorrect because it involves the backflow of stomach acid into the esophagus, leading to symptoms like heartburn and regurgitation, not inflammation of the stomach lining. Diverticulitis refers to inflammation or infection of small pouches that can form in the walls of the colon, not the stomach. Ulcerative colitis is a type of inflammatory bowel disease characterized by inflammation and ulcers in the colon and rectum, not the stomach lining.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The T wave on an ECG corresponds to ventricular repolarization. Following ventricular depolarization, which is represented by the QRS complex, the ventricles undergo repolarization during the T wave. This phase signifies the recovery of ventricular muscle cells as they prepare for the subsequent depolarization cycle. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because the T wave specifically reflects the repolarization of the ventricles, not the atria or their respective depolarization or repolarization phases.
