1. A garden bed has a side length of 8 meters. What is its perimeter?

• A. 16m
• B. 24m
• C. 32m
• D. 64m

Correct answer: C

Rationale: : Since all sides are equal, multiply the side length by 4: perimeter = 4 * side length = 4 * 8m = 32m.

2. How is work defined in terms of force and displacement?

• A. Work is the product of force and displacement in any direction
• B. Work is done only when the displacement is vertical
• C. Work is done only when the force and displacement are perpendicular
• D. Work is the product of force and displacement in the direction of the force

Correct answer: d

Rationale: Work is calculated as the force applied to an object multiplied by the displacement of the object in the direction of the force.

3. You observe that plants in a greenhouse grow faster when exposed to red light compared to blue light. What is the next best step in your investigation?

• A. Increase the intensity of the blue light.
• B. Decrease the intensity of the red light.
• C. Grow plants in complete darkness.
• D. Grow plants exposed to both red and blue light at equal intensities.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The next best step in the investigation would be to grow plants exposed to both red and blue light at equal intensities. This will help determine if the observed growth difference is due to the specific wavelength of light (red vs. blue) or if it is related to the intensity of light. By exposing plants to both red and blue light at equal intensities, you can compare their growth rates and determine if one wavelength has a greater effect on plant growth.

4. What is the difference between a prokaryotic cell and a eukaryotic cell?

• A. Prokaryotic cells have a nucleus, while eukaryotic cells do not
• B. Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus, while prokaryotic cells do not.
• C. Prokaryotic cells have membrane-bound organelles, while eukaryotic cells do not.
• D. Eukaryotic cells have membrane-bound organelles, while prokaryotic cells do not.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: - Prokaryotic cells are simpler and do not have a true nucleus. Their genetic material is located in the nucleoid region, which is not enclosed by a membrane. - Eukaryotic cells are more complex and have a true nucleus that houses the genetic material, enclosed within a nuclear membrane. - Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have organelles, but eukaryotic cells have membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi apparatus, while prokaryotic cells lack these membrane-bound organelles.

5. What property of a wave is measured in Hertz (Hz)?

• A. Amplitude
• B. Wavelength
• C. Speed
• D. Frequency

Correct answer: d

Rationale: Frequency, the number of oscillations per second, is measured in Hertz (Hz).

6. Salts are formed by the reaction between:

• A. Two acids
• B. An acid and a base
• C. Two bases
• D. A metal and a nonmetal only

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Salts are ionic compounds formed by the reaction of an acid and a base
