• A. Independent clause

3. What is the difference between a pure substance and a mixture?

• A. Pure substances have fixed composition, mixtures don't.
• B. Mixtures have fixed composition, pure substances don't
• C. Pure substances are always solids, mixtures can be any state
• D. Pure substances are always elements, mixtures are always compounds

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Rationale: - Pure substances have a definite and constant composition, meaning they are made up of only one type of atom or molecule. This composition does not vary. - Mixtures, on the other hand, are composed of two or more substances physically combined. The components of a mixture can be present in varying proportions, leading to a variable composition. - Option A correctly distinguishes between pure substances and mixtures based on the fixed composition of pure substances and the variable composition of mixtures.

5. Which type of joint allows for the widest range of motion, like the shoulder joint?

• A. Hinge joint
• B. Ball-and-socket joint
• C. Gliding joint
• D. Fixed joint

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Ball-and-socket joint. A ball-and-socket joint, like the shoulder joint, allows for the widest range of motion in all directions, including flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, and rotation. This type of joint consists of a rounded, ball-like end of one bone fitting into a cup-like socket of another bone, providing great mobility and flexibility. Hinge joints, like the elbow, only allow movement in one plane (like a door hinge), gliding joints permit limited sliding movements between bones, and fixed joints, such as those in the skull, have no movement at all.

• D. They were destroyed by explorers when Petra was rediscovered.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The passage highlights the "elaborate" water systems, suggesting their complexity and importance.
