1. In the reaction 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O, how many moles of oxygen are required to react completely with 4 moles of hydrogen?

• A. 1
• B. 2
• C. 3
• D. 4

Correct answer: 2

Rationale: The balanced equation indicates a 1:1 ratio between H2 and O2, so 4 moles of H2 require 4 moles of O2, and 2 moles of H2 require 2 moles of O2.

2. Which statement BEST summarizes the author's perspective on bioremediation for plastic pollution?

• A. It is the only viable solution to the problem and should be prioritized.
• B. It is a promising approach but requires further research and development.
• C. It is less effective than traditional methods and poses environmental risks.
• D. It is irrelevant to the problem and will not make a significant impact.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The passage acknowledges the potential of bioremediation while highlighting the need for further research, indicating a balanced perspective.

3. What are the three main types of RNA?

• A. Messenger RNA (mRNA), ribosomal RNA (rRNA), and transfer RNA (tRNA)
• B. DNA, RNA, and protein
• C. Adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine
• D. Deoxyribose, ribose, and phosphate

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Rationale: - Messenger RNA (mRNA) carries genetic information from the DNA in the nucleus to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm for protein synthesis. - Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is a structural component of ribosomes, which are the cellular machinery responsible for protein synthesis. - Transfer RNA (tRNA) is responsible for bringing amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis. Options B, C, and D are incorrect: - Option B lists DNA, RNA, and protein, which are biomolecules but not the three main types of RNA. - Option C lists nitrogenous bases (adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine) found in DNA, not types of RNA. - Option D lists components of nucleotides (deoxyribose, ribose, and phosphate), which are building blocks of nucleic

4. What happens to the frequency of a wave when its wavelength is doubled, assuming the speed remains constant?

• A. Frequency remains the same.
• B. Frequency is halved.
• C. Frequency is doubled.
• D. Frequency information is insufficient to determine.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Since the wave speed is constant, if the wavelength increases, the frequency must decrease to maintain the same energy transfer per unit time.

5. What is the scientific term for the monthly cycle in females that prepares the body for potential pregnancy?

• A. Ovulation cycle
• B. Menstrual cycle
• C. Implantation cycle
• D. Gestation cycle

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Menstrual cycle.' The menstrual cycle is the scientific term for the monthly process in females that prepares the body for potential pregnancy. During this cycle, the lining of the uterus thickens to prepare for a fertilized egg, and if no fertilization occurs, the uterus sheds this lining in the form of menstrual bleeding. Ovulation cycle refers specifically to the release of an egg from the ovary, implantation cycle is the process of a fertilized egg attaching to the uterine wall, and gestation cycle is the period of pregnancy from conception to birth. Therefore, the menstrual cycle is the most appropriate term for the monthly process described in the question.

6. What does the term "solute" refer to in a solution?

• A. The substance present in the largest amount
• B. The substance that dissolves in the solvent
• C. The liquid portion of the solution
• D. The temperature at which the solution freezes

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The solute is the substance that dissolves in the solvent to form a solution. The other choices do not accurately describe the solute.
