1. What phenomenon occurs when a wave encounters a change in medium causing a change in its speed and direction?

• A. Refraction
• B. Reflection
• C. Diffraction
• D. Interference

Correct answer: a

Rationale: Refraction happens when a wave changes its speed and direction due to encountering a change in medium.

2. What are enzymes?

• A. Building blocks of muscle
• B. Biological catalysts
• C. Energy source
• D. Antibodies

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Enzymes are proteins that speed up chemical reactions in our cells. They act like tiny factories, fitting specific molecules (substrates) into their active site to facilitate reactions.

3. Which of the following is the main organ responsible for producing bile?

• A. Liver
• B. Gallbladder
• C. Pancreas
• D. Stomach

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Rationale: The liver is the main organ responsible for producing bile. Bile is a greenish-yellow fluid that is produced by the liver and stored in the gallbladder. It plays a crucial role in the digestion and absorption of fats in the small intestine. The gallbladder releases bile into the small intestine when needed to aid in the digestion of fats. The pancreas is responsible for producing digestive enzymes and insulin, not bile. The stomach is primarily involved in the digestion of food through the secretion of gastric juices.

4. How is power defined in terms of physics?

• A. The rate at which work is done
• B. The amount of force applied
• C. The distance an object travels
• D. The potential energy of an object

Correct answer: a

Rationale: Power is defined as the rate at which work is done or the rate at which energy is transferred or converted.

5. What is the term for a solution that contains the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve at a specific temperature and pressure?

• A. Saturated solution
• B. Unsaturated solution
• C. Dilute solution
• D. Concentrated solution

Correct answer: A

Rationale: A saturated solution is one in which the maximum amount of solute has dissolved under specific conditions. The other choices do not accurately describe a saturated solution.

6. How is power related to time?

• A. Power is inversely proportional to time
• B. Power is directly proportional to time
• C. Power is unrelated to time
• D. Power is the product of time and work

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Power is the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred, and it is not directly linked to time.
