1. Which lobe of the brain is primarily responsible for processing visual information?

• A. Frontal lobe
• B. Parietal lobe
• C. Temporal lobe
• D. Occipital lobe

Correct answer: d

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Occipital lobe. The occipital lobe is located at the back of the brain and is primarily responsible for processing visual information. This area contains the primary visual cortex, which interprets signals from the eyes and processes visual stimuli such as color, shape, and motion. The frontal lobe is more involved in higher-level thinking and decision-making processes, the parietal lobe is responsible for processing sensory information and spatial awareness, and the temporal lobe is involved in memory and auditory processing. Therefore, the occipital lobe is the main region dedicated to visual processing in the brain.

2. Which of the following is NOT a type of antibody?

• A. IgA
• B. IgM
• C. Interferon
• D. IgG

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Rationale: A) IgA: This is a type of antibody found in mucosal areas such as the gut, respiratory tract, and genitourinary tract. B) IgM: This is a type of antibody produced during the primary immune response and is the first antibody to be produced in response to an infection. C) Interferon: Interferons are signaling proteins produced by cells in response to viral infections. They play a role in the immune response but are not antibodies. D) IgG: This is the most abundant type of antibody in the bloodstream and is involved in long-term immunity. Therefore, the correct answer is C) Interferon, as it is not a type of antibody.

3. Which property of a substance refers to its ability to be stretched into thin wires without breaking?

• A. Conductivity
• B. Viscosity
• C. Ductility
• D. Malleability

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Ductility is the property that describes a substance's ability to be stretched into thin wires without breaking.

4. A solution is formed when:

• A. One substance dissolves in another
• B. Two or more substances react chemically
• C. A solid changes to a liquid
• D. None of the above

Correct answer: A

Rationale: One substance dissolves in another. A solution is a homogeneous mixture where one substance (solute) dissolves in another (solvent).

5. What type of nutrients require minimal digestion before absorption?

• A. Carbohydrates
• B. Proteins
• C. Fats
• D. Vitamins

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Rationale: A) Carbohydrates: Carbohydrates require digestion by enzymes in the mouth, stomach, and small intestine before they can be broken down into simple sugars for absorption. B) Proteins: Proteins need to be broken down into amino acids by stomach acid and digestive enzymes in the stomach and small intestine before they can be absorbed. C) Fats: Fats require bile from the gallbladder to emulsify them into smaller droplets for enzymes to break them down into fatty acids and glycerol for absorption. D) Vitamins: Vitamins are organic compounds that are already in a form that can be readily absorbed by the body without extensive digestion. They are absorbed directly into the bloodstream from the small intestine and do not require significant breakdown before absorption.

6. Identify the relative clause in the sentence "The book that won the award was a bestseller."

• A. "The book"
• B. "that won the award"
• C. "was a bestseller"
• D. "award"

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The relative clause "that won the award" provides additional information about the specific book.
