1. Which of the following is the smallest unit of matter?

• A. Molecule
• B. Atom
• C. Compound
• D. Element

Correct answer: B

Rationale: An atom is the fundamental building block of matter, while molecules are formed by the combination of atoms.

2. What is the formula to calculate work?

• A. Work = Force × Distance
• B. Work = Mass × Velocity
• C. Work = Power × Time
• D. Work = Energy ÷ Time

Correct answer: a

Rationale: Work is calculated by multiplying force exerted on an object by the distance the object moves in the direction of the force.

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. Which type of energy is possessed by an object in motion?

• A. Potential energy
• B. Kinetic energy
• C. Thermal energy
• D. Chemical energy

Correct answer: b

Rationale: Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object in motion.

5. What term describes the bending of waves around obstacles or through openings?

• A. Reflection
• B. Refraction
• C. Diffraction
• D. Absorption

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Diffraction occurs when waves bend around obstacles or spread after passing through small openings.

6. What phenomenon occurs when two identical waves are perfectly aligned and reinforce each other?

• A. Refraction
• B. Reflection
• C. Diffraction
• D. Constructive interference

Correct answer: d

Rationale: Constructive interference happens when identical waves meet in phase, resulting in a wave with increased amplitude.
