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. What is the purpose of genetic counseling?

• A. To treat genetic disorders.
• B. To diagnose genetic diseases in newborns.
• C. To provide information and support to individuals and families with genetic risks.
• D. To collect DNA samples for research purposes.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To provide information and support to individuals and families with genetic risks. Genetic counselors explain the implications of genetic testing, discuss risks and options, and offer emotional and psychological support.

3. The lymphatic system works closely with which other body system to fight infections?

• A. Respiratory system
• B. Digestive system
• C. Immune system
• D. Nervous system

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is the Respiratory system. The lymphatic system and the respiratory system work closely together to fight infections. The respiratory system helps to filter out pathogens and other harmful substances from the air we breathe, while the lymphatic system produces and transports white blood cells (lymphocytes) that play a key role in the immune response against infections. This collaboration helps the body to defend against respiratory infections and maintain overall health.

4. Which of the following colligative properties refers to the elevation of the boiling point of a solution?

• A. Freezing point depression
• B. Vapor pressure lowering
• C. Osmotic pressure
• D. Boiling point elevation

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Freezing point depression. Colligative properties are properties that depend on the number of solute particles in a solution, not the type of solute. Freezing point depression is the phenomenon where the freezing point of a solvent is lowered when a solute is added, while boiling point elevation is the opposite effect where the boiling point of a solution is raised. Therefore, the question specifically asked for the colligative property that refers to the elevation of the boiling point, making "Freezing point depression" the correct answer.

5. What is the best way to punctuate the dialogue "Are you coming?" she asked. "Maybe," I replied.

• A. "Are you coming?" she asked? "Maybe," I replied.
• B. "Are you coming?" she asked. "Maybe," I replied.
• C. "Are you coming?" she asked, "Maybe," I replied.
• D. "Are you coming?" she asked, "Maybe," I replied.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Each speaker's words need quotation marks, and the question mark should go inside the closing quotation mark of the question.

6. The K-capture process, a type of electron capture, involves the capture of an electron from which electron shell:

• A. The outermost s-orbital
• B. An inner p-orbital
• C. An inner d-orbital
• D. Any available electron shell

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The K-capture process involves the capture of an electron from the innermost electron shell, known as the K-shell. The K-shell is represented by the outermost s-orbital in an atom's electron configuration. When an electron from the K-shell is captured, it results in the transition of a proton to a neutron in the nucleus, thereby changing the atomic number of the element. Therefore, option A, 'The outermost s-orbital,' is the correct answer as it accurately describes the electron shell involved in the K-capture process.
