TEAS: Science Terms AND Questions AND Correct Answers
4 Main Steps of Data Collection - ✔✔1. Observation
2. Measurement
3. Samples
4. Organization
4 Tissue Types - ✔✔Epithelial, Connective, Muscular, and Nervous
Abdominal and Pelvic Cavities - ✔✔Below the diaphragm
Acid + Base = - ✔✔Salt and Water
Acidic - ✔✔pH less than 7
Red in litmus paper
Active Immunity - ✔✔An individual receives a vaccine that stimulates
an actual infection by a pathogen, stimulating the body to produce
antibodies for future protection
Adaptation - ✔✔Receive, interpret, and respond to internal and
external stimuli via the nervous system
,Adaptation - ✔✔Some individuals of a species are better able to
survive and adapt to the environment in which they live
Alleles - ✔✔Different forms of genes
Alveoli - ✔✔Through these walls, the oxygen and carbon dioxide
move in and out of the lungs via small blood vessels called arterioles
Anabolic - ✔✔Creation of larger molecules
Analysis - ✔✔Must analyze data collected during experimentation.
The researchers must determine if the data is reliable (consistent with
past results) and whether or not it supports the hypothesis.
Anatomical Position - ✔✔Body facing forward, feet are parallel to
each other, arms are at he sides with the palms facing forward
Anatomy - ✔✔Study of the structure of organs and body systems
Anion - ✔✔Negative ion
Nonmetallic ion
Anterior - ✔✔Toward the front of the body or body structure
,Are large structures of DNA that contain the genes -
✔✔Chromosomes
Arteries - ✔✔Blood vessels that transport blood away from the heart
to the capillaries
As improvements are made, collection of new data often leads to
more refined alternative explanations - ✔✔Measuring and
observational devices have been developed so that smaller
increments of time and length have become accessible
Atom - ✔✔Smallest part of an element that still retains all the original
properties of the element
Atomic Mass - ✔✔Number of protons and neutrons found within the
nucleus of an atom
Atomic Number - ✔✔Number of protons in the nucleus of an atom of
an element
Atoms - ✔✔Smallest parts of elements that still retain all the original
properties of the element
, Autonomic Nervous System - ✔✔Controls automatic body functions,
like heartbeat and digestion
Includes both the sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves
Autotroph - ✔✔Able to produce its own food
Axon - ✔✔Connects one neuron with another neuron over a fluid
filled gap called a synaps
Balancing Chemical Equations - ✔✔Make certain that there are equal
numbers of each atom on the reactant side and the product side
ex. ___NI₃→___N₂+___I₂
=2NI₃→___N₂+___I₂
*Since adding the 2 to N, it also multiplies the I..so it's still not
balanced
=2NI₃→N₂+3I₂ Balanced
Bands of Wavelengths from Short to Long - ✔✔Gamma ray, Xray,
Ultraviolet, Visible, Infrared, Microwave, and Radio waves
Basic - ✔✔pH more than 7
