1. Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of a chemical reaction?

• A. Formation of new substances
• B. Release or absorption of energy
• C. Change in color
• D. Change in temperature

Correct answer: C

Rationale: While color change can be an indicator of a chemical reaction, it's not always present, and some reactions occur without a visible color change.

2. On the other hand, Ms. Castro notices that the Chief Nurse Executive has charismatic

• A. Possesses inspirational quality that makes followers gets attracted of him and regards
• B. Acts as he does because he expects that his behavior will yield positive results
• C. Uses visioning as the core of his leadership
• D. Matches his leadership style to the situation at hand.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because matching leadership style to the situation at hand is a key aspect of effective leadership. Being able to adapt and adjust leadership approaches based on the specific circumstances and needs of a situation can lead to better outcomes and success. In this scenario, the Chief Nurse Executive's ability to tailor his leadership style to different situations is likely to contribute to his effectiveness in managing various challenges and leading the team effectively.

3. A nurse needs to dilute 2 milliliters of a concentrated medication with 8 milliliters of sterile water. What is the final concentration of the solution in percent?

• A. 16.67%
• B. 20%
• C. 25%
• D. 50%

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Calculate the total volume of the solution (2 ml + 8 ml = 10 ml). Then, divide the volume of the concentrated medication by the total volume and multiply by 100%: (2 ml / 10 ml) * 100% = 20%.

4. What protein complex controls the progression of mitosis through its activation and degradation?

• A. Ribosome
• B. Cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK)
• C. Centriole
• D. Microtubule

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: A) Ribosome: Ribosomes are cellular organelles responsible for protein synthesis and are not directly involved in controlling the progression of mitosis. B) Cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK): CDKs are a family of protein kinases that regulate the cell cycle, including the progression of mitosis. CDK activity is controlled by cyclins, which bind to CDKs to activate them at specific points in the cell cycle. The activation and degradation of cyclins regulate the activity of CDKs, which in turn control the progression of mitosis. C) Centriole: Centrioles are involved in organizing the microtubules of the mitotic spindle but do not directly control the progression of mitosis. D) Microtubule: Microtubules are structural components of the cytoskeleton and are involved in various cellular processes, including mitosis, but they do not control

5. Which property of a wave determines its energy?

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

Correct answer: b

Rationale: Amplitude is directly related to the energy carried by a wave - higher amplitudes correspond to higher energy waves.

6. A car is moving in a circle at constant speed. Which of the following is NOT true about its motion?

• A. It has a constant centripetal acceleration
• B. It has a constant tangential velocity
• C. It experiences a force directed towards the center of the circle
• D. It covers the same distance in equal time intervals along its circular path

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In circular motion at a constant speed, the car has a constant centripetal acceleration (choice A), experiences a force directed towards the center of the circle (choice C), and covers the same distance in equal time intervals along its circular path (choice D). However, the tangential velocity of an object in circular motion at a constant speed changes continuously as it moves around the circle, so it is not constant (choice B).
