TEAS 7 science quizlet Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which property of a wave remains constant when it crosses a boundary between two different media?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: When a wave crosses a boundary between two different media, its speed is the property that remains constant. This is due to the principle of conservation of energy. While the frequency and wavelength of a wave may change as it moves from one medium to another, the speed of the wave remains constant. This phenomenon is a result of the wave adjusting its frequency and wavelength to maintain a consistent speed in different media. Therefore, choices A, B, and C are incorrect. Frequency and wavelength may change when a wave moves across media, and amplitude may also be affected by the medium, but the speed of the wave will remain constant.
Question 2 of 5
Which of the following describes a scalar quantity?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: A scalar quantity is a physical quantity that has magnitude only, without any direction. Speed is an example of a scalar quantity because it only describes how fast an object is moving without specifying the direction of motion. Velocity, acceleration, and force are vector quantities because they have both magnitude and direction. Therefore, the correct answer is 'Speed.' Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because velocity, acceleration, and force are all vector quantities that involve both magnitude and direction.
Question 3 of 5
Which molecule is responsible for storing and providing a quick source of energy during short bursts of intense physical activity, such as weightlifting or sprinting?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is the molecule responsible for storing and providing a quick source of energy during short bursts of intense physical activity like weightlifting or sprinting. ATP is broken down to release energy rapidly when muscles need quick, intense efforts. Glucose is a source of energy but must be converted into ATP before it can be used by muscles. Myoglobin is a protein that stores oxygen in muscle cells and does not directly provide energy. Lactic acid is produced during intense exercise but is not the primary molecule responsible for providing quick energy during short bursts of intense physical activities.
Question 4 of 5
Which of the following is a characteristic phenomenon associated with Cherenkov radiation?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Cherenkov radiation is produced when charged particles travel through a medium at speeds greater than the speed of light in that medium. It is not specific to a particular type of particle emission but rather to the speed of the charged particles. This phenomenon results in the emission of a characteristic blue light, which is a visual indicator of charged particles exceeding the speed of light in that medium. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because Cherenkov radiation is not limited to a specific type of particle emission but is based on the speed of the charged particles relative to the speed of light in the medium.
Question 5 of 5
Which vitamin deficiency can lead to a condition called pernicious anemia, affecting vitamin B12 absorption in the digestive system?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Pernicious anemia is caused by a deficiency in vitamin B12 (cobalamin). Vitamin B12 is essential for the production of red blood cells and for the proper functioning of the nervous system. Pernicious anemia occurs when there is a lack of intrinsic factor, a protein produced in the stomach that is necessary for the absorption of vitamin B12 in the digestive system. Vitamin A, Vitamin D, and Vitamin E deficiencies do not lead to pernicious anemia. Vitamin A deficiency can cause night blindness and skin issues, Vitamin D deficiency can lead to rickets or osteomalacia, and Vitamin E deficiency can result in neurological problems and muscle weakness.
