Test your basic knowledge |

Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.

24. Compound of silver and bromine - chlorine - or iodine - all of which are in the halogen group of elements






25. Radiograph of a dogs skeleton has a long scale of contrast






26. Is influenced by quantity of x-rays(mAs) - quality of x-rays (kVp) - type and thickness of tissue being x-rayed
