1. Which property of a wave represents the distance between two successive identical points on a wave?

• A. Wavelength
• B. Amplitude
• C. Frequency

2. Which term refers to the measure of the mass of a substance per unit volume and is commonly expressed in kilograms per cubic meter?

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

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Density is the measure of the mass of a substance per unit volume and is commonly expressed in kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³).

3. The term "symbiotic relationship" describes an interaction between two organisms where:

• A. One organism benefits and the other is unaffected
• B. Both organisms are harmed by the interaction
• C. One organism benefits and the other is negatively impacted
• D. Both organisms benefit from the interaction

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Rationale: In a symbiotic relationship, both organisms involved benefit from the interaction. This mutually beneficial relationship can take different forms, such as mutualism where both organisms benefit, commensalism where one organism benefits and the other is unaffected, or parasitism where one organism benefits at the expense of the other. In this case, the term "symbiotic relationship" specifically refers to a scenario where both organisms derive some form of benefit from their interaction.

4. What type of bone is the kneecap (patella)?

• A. Long bone
• B. Short bone
• C. Flat bone
• D. Irregular bone

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Short bone. The kneecap, or patella, is classified as a short bone because it is roughly cube-shaped and is composed of spongy bone enclosed by a thin layer of compact bone. Short bones provide support and stability with limited motion, making them ideal for protecting joints like the knee. Long bones are typically elongated, flat bones are thin and curved, and irregular bones have complex shapes. Understanding the classification of bones can help in identifying their functions and structural characteristics.

5. She knows that there are external forces that influence changes in his unit. Which of the

• A. Memo from the CEO to cut down on electrical consumption
• B. Demands of the labor sector to increase wages
• C. Low morale of staff in her unit
• D. Exacting regulatory and accreditation standards

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is option A: 'Memo from the CEO to cut down on electrical consumption.' This choice represents an external force that can influence changes in the unit by setting a directive from top management to reduce electricity usage, impacting operations and decisions within the unit. While options B, C, and D may also affect the unit to some extent, they are not as directly tied to external influences as the CEO's memo. The demands of the labor sector (option B) and low staff morale (option C) are internal factors, while regulatory and accreditation standards (option D) are more overarching guidelines rather than specific external forces impacting the unit. Therefore, the most direct and relevant external force in this scenario is the directive from the CEO, making option A the correct choice.

6. When does work on an object occur?

• A. Only when the object's velocity changes
• B. Only when a force is applied to the object
• C. Whenever there is a force exerted on the object causing displacement
• D. Only when the object is lifted vertically

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Work is done when a force is applied to an object, causing it to move in the direction of the force.
