1. What is the difference between a prokaryotic cell and a eukaryotic cell?

• A. Prokaryotic cells have a nucleus, while eukaryotic cells do not
• B. Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus, while prokaryotic cells do not.
• C. Prokaryotic cells have membrane-bound organelles, while eukaryotic cells do not.
• D. Eukaryotic cells have membrane-bound organelles, while prokaryotic cells do not.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: - Prokaryotic cells are simpler and do not have a true nucleus. Their genetic material is located in the nucleoid region, which is not enclosed by a membrane. - Eukaryotic cells are more complex and have a true nucleus that houses the genetic material, enclosed within a nuclear membrane. - Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have organelles, but eukaryotic cells have membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi apparatus, while prokaryotic cells lack these membrane-bound organelles.

2. A car accelerates from rest. What happens to its kinetic energy and work done on it?

• A. Both kinetic energy and work done increase
• B. Kinetic energy increases, but work done remains constant.
• C. Work done increases, but kinetic energy remains constant.
• D. Both kinetic energy and work done remain constant.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: During acceleration, the car's speed increases, leading to rising kinetic energy. Simultaneously, the force applied to accelerate the car does work on it, increasing the work done.

3. Which sentence uses the past perfect tense correctly?

• A. By the time I arrived, the party had already begun.
• B. I wish I had studied harder for the exam.
• C. We will have finished the project by Monday.
• D. She had been waiting for hours before he finally showed up.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Option A expresses an action ("party began") completed before another past action ("I arrived").

4. Which of the following is NOT a symptom of asthma, a chronic respiratory condition?

• A. Wheezing
• B. Difficulty breathing
• C. Chest tightness
• D. Fever

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: "Fever." Fever is not a symptom commonly associated with asthma. Asthma symptoms typically include wheezing (A), difficulty breathing (B), and chest tightness (C). Wheezing is a high-pitched whistling sound that occurs during breathing, while difficulty breathing refers to the feeling of not getting enough air. Chest tightness is a common sensation of pressure or constriction in the chest. Fever is not a typical symptom of asthma but may occur in other respiratory conditions or infections. Therefore, fever is the correct answer as it does not align with the typical symptom profile of asthma.

5. Which of the following conclusions of Ms. Castro about leadership characteristics is TRUE?

• A. There is a high correlation between the communication skills of a leader and the ability to get
• B. A manager is effective when he has the ability to plan well.
• C. Assessment of personal traits is a reliable tool for predicting a manager’s potential.
• D. There is good evidence that certain personal qualities favor success in managerial role.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A because effective communication skills are essential for a leader to successfully convey ideas, motivate teams, and build relationships. Strong communication skills enable a leader to articulate goals clearly, listen to feedback, and resolve conflicts efficiently. This correlation between communication skills and leadership effectiveness has been well-documented in numerous studies. In contrast, options B, C, and D are not universally true statements about leadership characteristics. While planning skills and personal traits may contribute to effective leadership, they are not as directly linked to leadership success as communication skills. Therefore, option A is the most accurate conclusion about leadership characteristics among the choices provided.

6. What is the relationship between the frequency and period of a wave?

• A. They are unrelated
• B. Frequency = Period
• C. Frequency = 1/Period
• D. Period = 1/Frequency

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct relationship between frequency and period of a wave is that Period = 1/Frequency. This means that the period of a wave is the reciprocal of its frequency. Frequency is the number of complete cycles of a wave that occur in a unit of time, while the period is the time it takes for one complete cycle of the wave to occur. Since frequency and period are inversely related, the correct formula is Period = 1/Frequency.
