1. Which of the following organs is NOT directly involved in urine production?

• A. Kidneys
• B. Urethra
• C. Lungs
• D. Bladder

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Lungs. The lungs are not directly involved in urine production. The kidneys are responsible for filtering waste products from the blood to create urine. The urethra is the tube that carries urine from the bladder out of the body. The bladder serves as a temporary storage reservoir for urine. In contrast, the lungs are primarily responsible for the exchange of gases, such as oxygen and carbon dioxide, during respiration and are not directly involved in the process of urine production.

2. Which element is used in jewelry due to its malleability and resistance to tarnish?

• A. Iron
• B. Copper
• C. Gold
• D. Silver

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Gold's properties make it ideal for crafting durable and aesthetically pleasing jewelry

3. What is the unit of measurement for momentum?

• A. Newton-second (N·s)
• B. Kilogram-meter (kg·m)
• C. Joule (J)
• D. Meter per second (m/s)

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Momentum is defined as the product of an object's mass and its velocity. The unit of mass is kilograms (kg) and the unit of velocity is meters per second (m/s). Therefore, the unit of momentum is kilogram-meter per second (kg·m/s). By Newton's second law of motion (F = ma), force is measured in Newtons (N), which is equivalent to kg·m/s². Therefore, multiplying the unit of force (N) by the unit of time (s) gives the unit of momentum as Newton-second (N·s).

4. What is the muscular sac in the female body that nourishes and protects a developing fetus?

• A. Ovary
• B. Fallopian tube
• C. Uterus
• D. Vagina

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Uterus. The uterus is a muscular sac in the female body where a fertilized egg implants and develops into a fetus during pregnancy. It provides nourishment to the developing fetus and protects it throughout gestation. The ovaries produce eggs, the fallopian tubes transport eggs from the ovaries to the uterus, and the vagina is the canal leading from the uterus to the outside of the body. Therefore, the uterus is the specific organ responsible for nourishing and protecting a developing fetus in the female body.

5. What property of a substance refers to its ability to undergo a chemical change and form new substances?

• A. Density
• B. Mass
• C. Reactivity
• D. Volume

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Reactivity refers to a substance's ability to undergo a chemical change or reaction, forming new substances with different properties.

6. A rectangular bandage measures 5cm by 8cm. What is the area covered by the bandage?

• A. 10cm
• B. 13cm
• C. 40cm^2
• D. 64cm^2

Correct answer: C

Rationale: 40cm^2: Multiply the length (5cm) by the width (8cm).
