1. Based on the passage, the author most likely believes that

• A. Individual actions are insignificant in addressing climate change, and only large-scale initiatives matter.
• B. Adaptation to the changing climate is impossible, and societal collapse is inevitable.
• C. Transitioning to renewable energy and sustainable practices offers hope for mitigating climate change.
• D. The scientific evidence for climate change is unreliable, and further research is needed before taking action.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The focus on global efforts, renewable energy, and sustainable practices suggests an optimistic outlook on mitigating climate change, aligning with C.

2. What is the unit of measurement for force in the International System of Units (SI)?

• A. Newton (N)
• B. Kilogram (kg)
• C. Joule (J)
• D. Meter per second squared (m/s²)

Correct answer: a

Rationale: Force is measured in Newtons (N) in the SI system.

3. A baseball is thrown into the air. At the peak of its trajectory, which of the following forces is acting on the ball?

• A. Only gravitational force
• B. Only the force of air resistance
• C. Both gravitational force and the force of air resistance
• D. Neither gravitational force nor the force of air resistance

Correct answer: A

Rationale: At the peak, the ball momentarily stops moving upwards. Its inertia keeps it moving horizontally, but there is no force propelling it upwards except for gravity pulling it down.

4. In the sentence "The house was dilapidated," what effect does the word "dilapidated" have on the reader's understanding?

• A. Creates a sense of mystery.
• B. Emphasizes the large size of the house.
• C. Suggests the house is in poor condition.
• D. Implies the house is haunted.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The word "dilapidated" specifically describes the house's deteriorating state.

5. Which of the following types of muscle tissue is found attached to bones and allows for voluntary movement?

• A. Smooth muscle
• B. Cardiac muscle
• C. Skeletal muscle
• D. Connective tissue

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Skeletal muscle. Skeletal muscle is the type of muscle tissue that is attached to bones and allows for voluntary movement. This type of muscle is under conscious control, meaning we can choose to contract or relax these muscles to produce movement. Smooth muscle (option A) is found in the walls of internal organs and is not under voluntary control. Cardiac muscle (option B) is found in the heart and also functions involuntarily. Connective tissue (option D) primarily provides support and structure to the body but does not directly enable movement like skeletal muscle does.

6. What is the relationship between the frequency and wavelength of a wave?

• A. Inversely proportional
• B. Directly proportional
• C. No relationship
• D. Depend on the medium

Correct answer: a

Rationale: Frequency and wavelength have an inverse relationship - as one increases, the other decreases.
