Questions with Verified
Answers Graded A+
Pressure (fluid) - Answer: pgh
density x g x change in height
Nearsighted (myopic) - Answer: Diverging lens; image is focused in front of retina
Farsighted (hyperopia) - Answer: Converging lens; image is focused beyond the retina
Index - Answer: Speed of air (Vair) / Speed of medium (Vmedium)
Ratio of h(image) to h(object) - Answer: f of image/ f of object
Ratio of O/I distance = Ratio of O/I height
Mass of O/mass of submerged - Answer: density of O/ density of fluid
Mass of O = 15, Mass of fluid loss = 5
15/5 = 3 = ratio of density of O/density of fluid
density of fluid = 0.7 -> density of O = 0.7 x 3 = 2.1
, Hydrostatic pressure - Answer: The pressure at the bottom of a tube of height h filled with liquid
of density = pgh due to the weight of the liquid.
Speed of a WAVE - Answer: v=f(lamda)
Unknown O = 31.6N
Apparent weight = 19.8N
specific gravity of sample? - Answer: Unknown O force / Liquid displaced force
32N / (32N-20N) = 32/12 = 8/3 = 2.66
Apoptosis - Answer: Cytochrome C release from MT
Cell shrinkage and blebbing
Caspase activation
Specific activity of a protein - Answer: Measure of the enzyme units per mg of total protein in a
solution
Provides a measure of the purity of an enzymatic mixture
Disruption of 2 S-S bond - Answer: 2 molecules of NADH (reducing agent)
Sociological concept of Medicalization - Answer: A problem becomes described in medical
terminology and treated by medical professions
Behavior problem (alcoholism) becomes described and treated as a medical condition when it
was not previously conceived in that way
