1. How is the density of a substance calculated?

• A. Mass / Volume
• B. Volume / Mass
• C. Mass x Volume
• D. None of the above

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance.

2. Katherine tells one of the staff, “I don’t have time to discuss the matter with you now. See me

• A. Smoothing
• B. Compromise
• C. Avoidance
• D. Restriction

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Compromise.' In this scenario, Katherine is willing to engage with the staff member but suggests they postpone the discussion to a later time. This demonstrates a willingness to find a middle ground or reach a mutual agreement, which aligns with the concept of compromise. 'Smoothing' involves downplaying differences to maintain harmony, 'Avoidance' is ignoring or postponing the issue altogether, and 'Restriction' refers to limiting the interaction or communication. Therefore, 'Compromise' best fits the situation where Katherine is open to discussing the matter at a more suitable time.

3. The term "unconditional" in the context of UBI signifies that

• A. The amount received would be based on individual income and living expenses.
• B. Recipients would be required to meet certain criteria to qualify for the program.
• C. The money would be provided without any restrictions on how it is spent.
• D. The program would be temporary and subject to periodic review and renewal.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The unconditional aspect of UBI refers to the lack of strings attached to its receipt, aligning with C.

4. The process of a gas changing into a liquid is called:

• A. Evaporation
• B. Boiling
• C. Condensation
• D. Sublimation

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Condensation happens when gas particles lose energy and slow down, transitioning into the liquid state.

5. Microfilaments and microtubules are both components of the cytoskeleton, but they have different functions. Which of these describes microfilaments?

• A. Provide structural support and shape
• B. Facilitate cell movement and contraction
• C. Form the mitotic spindle during cell division
• D. Transport materials within the cell

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Microfilaments are composed of actin filaments and are responsible for facilitating cell movement and contraction. They play a crucial role in processes such as muscle contraction, cell division, and cell shape changes. Microfilaments are involved in generating forces for cell motility and maintaining cell shape, making option B, 'Facilitate cell movement and contraction,' the correct choice. The other options are not accurate for microfilaments: A) Structural support and shape are primarily provided by intermediate filaments, C) Mitotic spindle formation is attributed to microtubules, and D) Transport of materials within the cell is usually carried out by microtubules and motor proteins.

6. Which of the following is a property of amphiprotic substances?

• A. React with acids only
• B. React with bases only
• C. Can act as both acids and bases
• D. Are inert in chemical reactions

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Amphiprotic substances can donate or accept a proton, so they can act as both acids and bases. The other choices do not accurately describe amphiprotic substances.
