1. 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.

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. During exercise, heart rate increases to deliver more oxygen to the body's tissues. What other cardiovascular response also increases?

• A. Blood pressure decreases
• B. Blood vessel diameter narrows
• C. Blood flow to muscles increases
• D. Blood viscosity thickens

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'Blood pressure decreases.' When the heart rate increases during exercise to deliver more oxygen to the body's tissues, the blood pressure also tends to decrease. This is due to the enhanced efficiency of the heart in pumping blood, resulting in a lower pressure exerted on the blood vessel walls. In contrast, options B and D are incorrect as blood vessel diameter typically widens (dilates) during exercise to facilitate increased blood flow, and blood viscosity does not usually thicken during exercise. Option C is a distractor as blood flow to muscles indeed increases during exercise to meet the higher demand for oxygen and nutrients.

4. What are the key differences between cytokinesis in plant and animal cells?

• A. Animal cells utilize an actomyosin ring for cleavage furrow formation, while plant cells lack this mechanism.
• B. Plant cells rely on the assembly of a cell plate in the center of the dividing cell, ultimately separating the cytoplasm.
• C. Cytokinesis in both plant and animal cells is driven by the expansion of the endoplasmic reticulum.
• D. Both types of cells achieve cytokinesis through similar membrane pinching and constriction mechanisms.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: A) Animal cells utilize an actomyosin ring for cleavage furrow formation, while plant cells lack this mechanism. - This statement is true. Animal cells use an actomyosin ring to form a cleavage furrow during cytokinesis, while plant cells do not have this mechanism. Instead, plant cells form a cell plate. B) Plant cells rely on the assembly of a cell plate in the center of the dividing cell, ultimately separating the cytoplasm. - This statement is correct. Plant cells form a cell plate in the middle of the dividing cell during cytokinesis. The cell plate eventually develops into a new cell wall that separates the two daughter cells. C) Cytokinesis in both plant and animal cells is driven by the expansion of the endoplasmic reticulum. - This

5. During sexual intercourse, sperm travels through a tube from the testes to the urethra. What is the name of this tube?

• A. Vas deferens
• B. Epididymis
• C. Seminal vesicle
• D. Urethra

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'Vas deferens.' The vas deferens is a tube that carries sperm from the testes to the urethra during ejaculation. It is a crucial part of the male reproductive system, allowing for the transport of sperm for fertilization. The epididymis is where sperm mature and are stored, not where they travel during intercourse. The seminal vesicle is a gland that produces a significant portion of the seminal fluid. The urethra is the tube that carries both urine and semen out of the body but is not where sperm travels from the testes.

6. When light reflects from a surface, what determines the angle of reflection?

• A. The material of the surface
• B. The wavelength of the light
• C. The angle of incidence
• D. The intensity of the light

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The angle of reflection is always equal to the angle of incidence according to the law of reflection, regardless of the material, wavelength, or intensity.
