TEAS version 7 quizlet science

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is that the kinetic energy remains the same. Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass of an object and the square of its velocity. When the mass is doubled, the kinetic energy would increase if the velocity remains constant. However, in this question, only the mass is mentioned, not the velocity. Therefore, when the mass is doubled, the kinetic energy remains the same as long as the velocity remains constant. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they incorrectly suggest changes in kinetic energy that do not accurately reflect the relationship between mass and kinetic energy described in the question.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The heart is located within the thoracic cavity, specifically in the mediastinum, which is the central compartment of the thoracic cavity. The thoracic cavity is part of the ventral cavity, which also includes the abdominal cavity. The dorsal cavity refers to the posterior side of the body and does not contain the heart. The heart is situated in the thoracic cavity between the lungs and above the diaphragm, making option C the correct choice. Therefore, the correct answer is the thoracic cavity (option C). The ventral cavity (option B) includes the thoracic and abdominal cavities, but the heart is specifically situated in the thoracic cavity. The dorsal cavity (option A) is located on the posterior side of the body, not where the heart is positioned. The abdominal cavity (option D) is below the thoracic cavity and houses organs such as the stomach, liver, and intestines, but it does not contain the heart.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: A) IgA: This is a type of antibody found in mucosal areas such as the gut, respiratory tract, and genitourinary tract. It plays a role in mucosal immunity. B) IgM: This is a type of antibody produced during the primary immune response and is the first antibody to be produced in response to an infection. C) Interferon: Interferons are signaling proteins produced by cells in response to viral infections. They play a role in the immune response by interfering with viral replication, but they are not antibodies. D) IgG: This is the most abundant type of antibody in the bloodstream and is involved in long-term immunity. Therefore, the correct answer is C) Interferon, as it is not a type of antibody.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The nephron is the correct answer. It is the structural and functional unit of the kidney responsible for filtering blood. The nephron consists of a renal corpuscle (glomerulus and Bowman's capsule) and a renal tubule. Within the nephron, blood is filtered to form urine, which is then carried to the ureter for excretion from the body. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because the ureter, urethra, and bladder are not involved in the filtration of blood in the kidney. Instead, they are parts of the urinary system responsible for transporting and storing urine.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The potential energy stored in a spring is given by the formula \(PE = \frac{1}{2}kx^2\), where \(k\) is the spring constant and \(x\) is the displacement from the equilibrium position. Substituting the given values, we get \(PE = \frac{1}{2} \times 100 \times (0.2)^2 = 8\) J.
