1. Which law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction?

• A. Newton's First Law
• B. Newton's Second Law
• C. Newton's Third Law
• D. Law of Universal Gravitation

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Newton's Third Law states the action-reaction principle.

2. Identify the subject in the following sentence: "The red car parked in the driveway."

• A. driveway
• B. red
• C. car

4. What is the main factor limiting population growth in K-strategists?

• A. Predation
• B. Availability of resources
• C. Competition
• D. Disease

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: K-strategists are species that have a low reproductive rate and invest more resources in raising fewer offspring. These species typically inhabit stable environments where resources are limited. The main factor limiting population growth in K-strategists is the availability of resources such as food, shelter, and space. When resources are scarce, K-strategists may struggle to find enough resources to support their population size, leading to decreased reproductive success and population growth. Predation (option A), competition (option C), and disease (option D) can also impact population growth, but the primary limiting factor for K-strategists is the availability of resources.

5. What is the outermost protective layer of the kidney?

• A. Renal cortex
• B. Renal medulla
• C. Renal capsule
• D. Renal pelvis

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C, renal capsule. The renal capsule is a tough fibrous layer that surrounds the kidney and provides protection. It helps maintain the shape of the kidney and serves as a barrier against infections and injuries. The renal cortex (A) is the outer region of the kidney where filtration occurs. The renal medulla (B) is the inner region of the kidney where urine is formed and collected. The renal pelvis (D) is a funnel-shaped structure that collects urine from the kidney and funnels it into the ureter. Therefore, the renal capsule is specifically the outermost protective layer of the kidney.

6. What are enzymes?

• A. Building blocks of muscle
• B. Biological catalysts
• C. Energy source
