1. What is the main concern the author raises about AI?

• A. Its limitations in achieving true intelligence and emulating human consciousness.
• B. Its potential for misuse in warfare and autonomous weapons systems.
• C. Its detrimental impact on the environment and resource consumption.
• D. Its ethical implications related to bias, privacy, and job displacement.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The passage explicitly mentions concerns about bias, privacy, and job displacement, making D the main concern highlighted.

2. Which element is used in fertilizers due to its role in plant cell division and growth?

• A. Potassium
• B. Phosphorus
• C. Calcium
• D. Magnesium

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Phosphorus is crucial for cell division and metabolism, making it essential for plant growth and development.

3. The body's first line of defense against pathogens includes:

• A. Phagocytes
• B. Antibodies
• C. Memory B cells
• D. T lymphocytes

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Rationale: Phagocytes are a type of white blood cell that plays a crucial role in the body's innate immune response, which is the first line of defense against pathogens. Phagocytes engulf and digest foreign particles, such as bacteria and viruses, helping to prevent infection and disease. Antibodies (option B) are produced by B cells and are part of the adaptive immune response, not the first line of defense. Memory B cells (option C) are also part of the adaptive immune response and are involved in mounting a faster and stronger response upon re-exposure to a pathogen. T lymphocytes (option D) are another type of white blood cell involved in the adaptive immune response, specifically in cell-mediated immunity.

4. Which of the following is an example of a weak acid?

• A. Hydrochloric acid (HCl)
• B. Sulfuric acid (H2SO4)
• C. Acetic acid (CH3COOH)
• D. Nitric acid (HNO3)

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Weak acids only partially dissociate in water, releasing a lower concentration of hydrogen ions.

5. Positron emission tomography (PET) scans utilize a key property of positrons for medical imaging. What is this property?

• A. High mass
• B. Positive charge
• C. Extreme stability
• D. Identical behavior to electrons

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Positive charge.' Positron emission tomography (PET) scans rely on the fact that positrons are positively charged particles. When a positron is emitted during radioactive decay, it quickly collides with an electron, resulting in annihilation and the release of two gamma rays in opposite directions. These gamma rays are detected by the PET scanner to create detailed images of the body's internal organs and tissues. The positive charge of positrons is crucial for this process to occur, making option B the correct choice.

6. What is the work done by a force of 20 N acting on an object that moves 5 meters in the direction of the force?

• A. 100 Joules (J)
• B. 25 Joules (J)
• C. 4 Joules (J)
• D. Work cannot be determined without knowing the object's mass.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Work is defined as the force applied multiplied by the distance moved in the direction of the force. Work = force x distance = 20 N x 5 m = 100 J.
