1. When choosing a color palette for a presentation, it's best to:

• A. Use as many vibrant colors as possible to grab attention.
• B. Stick to a monochrome palette for a minimalist look
• C. Select complementary colors that create harmony and contrast.
• D. Use the same colors as your company logo for consistency.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: While both branding consistency and minimalism have their place, presentations benefit from utilizing complementary colors for visual interest and clarity.

2. What is the myelin sheath and what does it do?

• A. A group of nerve cells that perform a specific function.
• B. A fatty substance that insulates some nerve fibers.
• C. A fluid-filled cavity within the brain.
• D. The junction between two neurons.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B. The myelin sheath is a fatty substance that insulates some nerve fibers. It is essential for the proper functioning of the nervous system as it acts as an insulator, allowing for faster transmission of nerve impulses along the axon. Without the myelin sheath, nerve signals could be disrupted or weakened, leading to issues with movement, sensation, and other neurological functions. Options A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately describe the myelin sheath or its function.

3. Which sentence uses the passive voice correctly?

• A. The letter was written by Mary.
• B. John built the house.
• C. She gave the flowers to him.
• D. They were eating dinner.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Option a clearly identifies the object (letter) acted upon and the agent (Mary) performing the action in the passive voice.

4. Adipose tissue, also known as fat, serves multiple functions. Which of these is NOT a function of adipose tissue?

• A. Insulation
• B. Energy storage
• C. Hormone production
• D. Muscle movement

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Adipose tissue plays various essential roles in the body, including insulation to help regulate body temperature, energy storage by storing excess energy in the form of fat, and hormone production such as leptin and adiponectin. However, adipose tissue is not directly responsible for muscle movement. Muscles are primarily responsible for movement, while adipose tissue provides cushioning and support around organs. Therefore, option D, 'Muscle movement,' is the correct answer as it does not align with the functions of adipose tissue.

5. What is the formula to calculate kinetic energy?

• A. Kinetic Energy = Mass × Velocity
• B. Kinetic Energy = Force × Distance
• C. Kinetic Energy = Power × Time
• D. Kinetic Energy = Potential Energy ÷ Time

Correct answer: a

Rationale: Kinetic energy is calculated using the formula KE = ½ × mass × velocity².

6. When you push a book across a table, the book experiences an equal and opposite force from the table. Why doesn't the table move as well?

• A. The table is much heavier than the book.
• B. The force on the book acts in a different direction.
• C. The table has a much larger surface area, distributing the force over a wider area
• D. All of the above

Correct answer: C

Rationale: While Newton's third law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction, the unbalanced force acting on each object depends on their respective masses. The larger mass of the table (compared to the book) experiences a smaller acceleration, making its movement almost imperceptible.
