1. What is the least common multiple (LCM) of 4 and 6?

• A. 24
• B. 12
• C. 6
• D. 3

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The LCM is the smallest number that is a multiple of both 4 and 6. We can find this by listing out the multiples of each number until we find a common value. In this case, 12 is the first number divisible by both 4 (4 x 3) and 6 (6 x 2).

2. The muscular sac that stores urine until it is released from the body is called the:

• A. Urethra
• B. Bladder
• C. Ureter
• D. Nephron

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Bladder. The bladder is a muscular sac that stores urine until it is ready to be released from the body through the urethra. The urethra is the tube that carries urine from the bladder out of the body. Ureters are tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder. Nephrons are the functional units of the kidneys responsible for filtering the blood and producing urine. Therefore, the bladder is the specific organ responsible for storing urine until it is expelled from the body, making it the correct answer.
