1. In meiosis, how many divisions occur, and how many daughter cells are produced?

• A. One division, two daughter cells
• B. Two divisions, four daughter cells
• C. Four divisions, eight daughter cells
• D. Eight divisions, sixteen daughter cells

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: In meiosis, there are two divisions: meiosis I and meiosis II. During meiosis I, homologous chromosomes separate, resulting in two daughter cells with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. In meiosis II, sister chromatids separate, resulting in a total of four daughter cells, each with a haploid set of chromosomes. Therefore, meiosis involves two divisions and produces four daughter cells.

2. The author likely intended to use the phrase "interconnected sensors" to emphasize...

• A. The cost-effectiveness of smart city technology.
• B. The complexity and network-based nature of the system.
• C. The potential for environmental harm of sensor installation.
• D. The aesthetic appeal of modern urban infrastructure.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: "Interconnected" highlights the integration and communication between sensors, indicating a complex network approach.

3. A medication dosage is listed as 1/2 teaspoon. What is the equivalent dosage in milliliters (1 teaspoon = 5ml)?

• A. 1.25ml
• B. 2.5ml

• D. 5ml

Correct answer: B

Rationale: 2.5ml: Divide the teaspoon dosage (1/2) by the conversion factor (2 teaspoons/5ml).

4. Two scientists analyze the same data set on climate change, but they reach different conclusions. What is the MOST likely reason for this difference?

• A. One scientist has more experience than the other.
• B. They used different statistical methods.
• C. They have different personal biases.
• D. One scientist has access to additional data.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Different analysis methods can lead to different interpretations, even with the same data. Biases and experience might play a role but are less likely the primary cause.

5. A news article claims a scientist has discovered a cure for cancer. How should you approach this information?

• B. Remain skeptical and wait for independent verification and further research.
• C. Dismiss the claim as impossible without any further investigation.
• D. Accept the information as fact because it was published in a news article.

Correct answer: B
