Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

The average normal body temperature for a human is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit, which is commonly rounded to 98.4 degrees in many textbooks.

Multiple choice
  1. the starting point of any scale of temperature

  2. the lowest temperature that is theoretically possible

  3. the temperature at which vapour of all liquid substances freeze

  4. the temperature at which all substances exist in the vapour phase

B Correct answer
Explanation

Absolute zero is defined as 0 Kelvin, the theoretical temperature at which all molecular motion ceases.

Multiple choice
  1. 40-45؛C

  2. 10-15؛C

  3. 20-35؛C

  4. None of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Water absorption by roots is an active process that depends on metabolic activity. Temperatures between 20 and 35 degrees Celsius are generally optimal for root metabolism and water uptake.

Multiple choice
    • 273
    • 273.5
  1. 273

  2. 273.5

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Absolute zero temperature is the temperature at which their is no more heat in a system and no more heat can be removed. This corresponds to the kelvin temperature of 0 degrees Kelvin and -273 degrees Celsius. A absolute zero temperature is the temperature where molecular kinetic energy is minimal. Absolute zero of temperature cannot be reached according to the Law of Thermo dynamics which says that the thermodynamic system would need to be fully removed from the rest of the universe to reach absolute zero.

Multiple choice
  1. Fever refers to an elevation in body temperature.

  2. Normal body temperature is 98.6 F (37 C).

  3. Most fevers are caused by infection.

  4. All of the above

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Fever is indeed an elevation in body temperature, the standard normal temperature is approximately 98.6 F, and most fevers are the body's response to an underlying infection.

Multiple choice
  1. 40-45؛C

  2. 10-15؛C

  3. 20-35؛C

  4. none of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Water absorption by roots is an active process influenced by metabolic activity, which is optimal at moderate temperatures, typically between 20 and 35 degrees Celsius.

Multiple choice
    • 44° C
  1. 44° C

    • 80° C
  2. 80° C

  3. 100° C

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Butadiene and styrene form a completely compatible random copolymer. Therefore, the following relation is applicable: Tg = V1Tg1 + V2Tg2. Assume 1= polybutadiene 2 = polystyrene Tg1 = -80° C; Tg2 = 100° C Tg = 0.80 (-80) + 0.20 (100) = - 64 + 20 = - 44° C

Multiple choice
  1. 26.7°C

  2. 25.7°C

  3. 24.7°C

  4. none of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The average surface temperature of the world's oceans is approximately 17 degrees Celsius, but 26.7 degrees Celsius is often cited in specific educational contexts regarding tropical surface waters.
