HESI A2
Quizlet Vocabulary HESI A2 Questions
Question 1 of 5
What is Diffusion?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Diffusion is the process where substances move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. This movement occurs due to the random motion of particles and continues until equilibrium is reached. Choice A is incorrect because diffusion occurs down the concentration gradient, from high to low concentration, not from low to high concentration. Choice C is incorrect as it refers to the uptake of substances by cells, not the general process of diffusion. Choice D is incorrect as it does not accurately describe the process of diffusion; diffusion involves the movement of substances, not the breaking of materials.

Question 3 of 5
What does 'Excess' mean?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'More than what is needed or usual.' Excess refers to an amount that surpasses what is required or typical. Choice A is incorrect because 'less than what is needed or usual' is the opposite of excess. Choice C is incorrect as 'equal to the amount needed' does not imply excess. Choice D is incorrect as 'below average' does not capture the essence of excess.

Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 5 of 5
What does Depth mean?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Depth refers to the distance or downward measurement from a surface. It is not the thickness of an object (Choice A), as thickness is the measure of how thick or thin an object is, not necessarily related to depth. Additionally, it is not the length of a surface (Choice C) because length typically refers to the longest dimension of an object rather than its depth. Finally, it is not the area between two points (Choice D) because area is a measure of the space within a boundary defined by points, while depth specifically refers to the vertical distance below a surface.
