1. How does the potential energy of an object change when it is compressed?

• A. Potential energy decreases
• B. Potential energy increases
• C. Potential energy remains constant
• D. Potential energy becomes zero

Correct answer: b

Rationale: When an object is compressed, it stores potential energy due to its altered position or configuration.

2. Which part of the neuron receives incoming signals from other neurons and conducts them toward the cell body?

• A. Axon
• B. Dendrite
• C. Synapse
• D. Myelin sheath

Correct answer: b

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Dendrite. Dendrites are the part of the neuron that receive incoming signals from other neurons and conduct them toward the cell body. They play a crucial role in communication between neurons by receiving neurotransmitters released from neighboring neurons. Axons transmit signals away from the cell body, synapses are the junctions where neurons communicate with each other, and myelin sheath is a fatty insulation that surrounds and protects axons. Therefore, in this scenario, dendrites are specifically responsible for receiving and conducting incoming signals towards the cell body.

3. What is the balanced chemical equation for the reaction between sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and potassium hydroxide (KOH)?

• A. H2SO4 + KOH → K2SO4 + H2O
• B. 2H2SO4 + 2KOH → 2K2SO4 + 2H2O
• C. H2SO4 + 2KOH → K2SO4 + 2H2O
• D. H2SO4 + 2KOH → K2SO4 + H2O

Correct answer: c

Rationale: The coefficients are adjusted to balance the number of atoms on both sides of the equation.

4. Which of the following situations represents work being done on an object?

• A. Pushing against a wall without moving it
• B. Carrying a heavy object without lifting it
• C. Lifting a box to place it on a shelf
• D. Holding a book stationary in your hand

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Work is done when a force is applied to move an object over a distance.

5. The term "unconditional" in the context of UBI signifies that

• A. The amount received would be based on individual income and living expenses.
• B. Recipients would be required to meet certain criteria to qualify for the program.
• C. The money would be provided without any restrictions on how it is spent.
• D. The program would be temporary and subject to periodic review and renewal.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The unconditional aspect of UBI refers to the lack of strings attached to its receipt, aligning with C.

6. What property of matter measures the amount of space occupied by an object?

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

Correct answer: d

Rationale: Volume measures the amount of space occupied by an object.
