1. Which of the following is NOT a primary producer in an ecosystem?

• A. Grass
• B. Deer
• C. Algae
• D. Mushroom

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: - A) Grass: Grass is a primary producer because it can photosynthesize and convert sunlight into energy, making it the base of the food chain. - B) Deer: Deer are consumers that feed on primary producers like grass, so they are not primary producers themselves. - C) Algae: Algae are primary producers that can photosynthesize and produce energy from sunlight. - D) Mushroom: Mushrooms are decomposers that break down organic matter, so they are not primary producers.

2. 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.

3. What happens to the kinetic energy of an object when its mass is doubled?

• A. Kinetic energy remains the same
• B. Kinetic energy halves
• C. Kinetic energy doubles
• D. Kinetic energy quadruples

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of an object's mass when its velocity remains constant.

4. Which property of a wave remains constant when the wave enters a different medium?

• A. Frequency
• B. Wavelength
• C. Amplitude
• D. Speed

Correct answer: d

Rationale: The speed of a wave remains constant when it enters a different medium, provided the conditions are unchanged.

5. Which of the following is an example of an aromatic compound?

• A. Ethanol
• B. Toluene
• C. Acetone
• D. Butanal

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Toluene is an aromatic compound. The other choices are not aromatic compounds.

6. Urinary system health can be maintained through various lifestyle practices. Which of the following is NOT recommended for optimal urinary system health?

• A. Limiting high-sodium foods in the diet
• B. Consuming adequate amounts of cranberry juice
• C. Holding urine in the bladder for long periods
• D. Getting regular moderate-intensity exercise

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Holding urine in the bladder for long periods. This is not recommended for optimal urinary system health because it can increase the risk of urinary tract infections and bladder problems. It is important to empty the bladder regularly to prevent bacteria from multiplying and causing infections. Limiting high-sodium foods in the diet helps maintain kidney health by reducing the risk of kidney stones and high blood pressure. Consuming cranberry juice can help prevent urinary tract infections due to its antibacterial properties. Regular moderate-intensity exercise promotes overall health, including good circulation to the kidneys and bladder.
