1. Which of the following is a characteristic of a solution with a high viscosity?

• A. It flows easily
• B. It has a low resistance to flow
• C. It has a high resistance to flow
• D. It does not mix with other liquids

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Solutions with high viscosity have a high resistance to flow. The other choices do not accurately describe high viscosity.

2. She surfs the internet for more information about leadership styles. She reads about shared

• A. Leadership behavior is generally determined by the relationship between the leader’s
• B. Leaders believe that people are basically good and need not be closely controlled
• C. Leaders rely heavily on visioning and inspire members to achieve results
• D. Leadership is shared at the point of care.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B because the statement 'Leaders believe that people are basically good and need not be closely controlled' aligns with the concept of shared leadership. Shared leadership involves distributing leadership responsibilities and authority among team members based on the belief that everyone has valuable contributions to make. This approach fosters a sense of trust and empowerment within the team, allowing individuals to take initiative and collaborate effectively. In contrast, option A refers to leadership behavior being determined by the relationship between the leader and followers, which is not directly related to the concept of shared leadership. Option C emphasizes visioning and inspiration, which are important aspects of leadership but do not specifically address the shared nature of leadership. Option D mentions leadership being shared at the point of care, which is too specific and does not encompass the broader concept of shared leadership.

3. Which element is used in semiconductors like computer chips and solar panels?

• A. Germanium
• B. Silicon
• C. Gallium
• D. Arsenic

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Silicon's unique properties allow it to be manipulated to conduct or not conduct electricity, making it ideal for various electronic applications.

4. What checkpoint mechanism ensures all chromosomes are attached to the spindle fibers before anaphase begins?

• A. Prometaphase
• B. Prometaphase
• C. Cyclin degradation
• D. Sister chromatid cohesion

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Rationale: A) Prometaphase is the correct answer because it is the stage of mitosis where all chromosomes are attached to the spindle fibers before anaphase begins. During prometaphase, the nuclear envelope breaks down, allowing the spindle fibers to attach to the kinetochores of the chromosomes. This attachment is necessary for proper chromosome alignment and segregation during anaphase. B) Metaphase is incorrect because it is the stage where chromosomes are aligned at the metaphase plate but do not necessarily have all spindle fibers attached. C) Cyclin degradation is incorrect because it is a regulatory mechanism that controls the progression of the cell cycle but is not specifically related to ensuring all chromosomes are attached to spindle fibers. D) Sister chromatid cohesion is incorrect because it refers to the physical connection between sister chromatids that is maintained until anaphase, but it does not ensure that all chromosomes are attached to spindle fibers.

5. What is the name for the mixture of reactants and products present during a chemical reaction?

• A. Solution
• B. Mixture
• C. Reaction mixture
• D. Precipitate

Correct answer: C

Rationale: This mixture contains both the starting materials (reactants) and the newly formed substances (products) during the reaction process.

6. What part of speech is the underlined word in the sentence "I was disappointed by the outcome"?

• A. Verb
• B. Noun
• C. Adjective
• D. Adverb
