2. When you get a goosebump, which type of muscle tissue is responsible for causing the hair follicles to stand on end?

• A. Skeletal muscle
• B. Smooth muscle
• C. Cardiac muscle
• D. None of the above

Correct answer: B

Rationale: When you get a goosebump, the type of muscle tissue responsible for causing the hair follicles to stand on end is smooth muscle. Smooth muscle is found in the skin attached to hair follicles and is controlled by the autonomic nervous system. When stimulated by factors like cold or emotional responses, the smooth muscle contracts, causing the hair to stand up and creating goosebumps. Skeletal muscle (choice A) is responsible for voluntary movements, cardiac muscle (choice C) is found in the heart and is responsible for pumping blood, and none of the above (choice D) is incorrect as smooth muscle is the correct answer in this case.

3. In the reaction 2Na + 2H2O → 2NaOH + H2, what is the limiting reactant when 3 moles of sodium react with 2 moles of water?

• A. Na
• B. H2O
• C. NaOH
• D. H2

Correct answer: a

Rationale: Sodium is the limiting reactant because it runs out first in a 1:1 ratio with water.

• A. 55cm
• B. 65cm
• C. 70cm
• D. 80cm

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Add the lengths of all sides: perimeter = top base + bottom base + 2 * side length = 20cm + 30cm + 2 * 15cm = 70cm.

5. Which of the following is an example of a salt?

• A. Sodium hydroxide (NaOH)
• B. Hydrochloric acid (HCl)
• C. Sodium chloride (NaCl)

6. What is the term for the inflammation of the airways in the lungs, often causing wheezing and difficulty breathing?

Asthma is a chronic condition characterized by inflammation of the airways in the lungs, leading to symptoms like wheezing, shortness of breath, coughing, and chest tightness. Pneumonia (A) is an infection in the lungs caused by bacteria, viruses, or fungi. Emphysema (B) is a type of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) characterized by damage to the air sacs in the lungs. Pleurisy (D) is inflammation of the lining of the lungs and chest cavity. Therefore, asthma best fits the description provided in the question, making it the correct answer.
