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. What happens to the potential energy of an object when it is lifted higher above the ground?

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

Correct answer: C

Rationale: When an object is lifted higher above the ground, its potential energy increases because the higher the object is lifted, the greater its potential energy due to the increased distance from the ground. This is in accordance with the formula for gravitational potential energy, which is PE = mgh, where m is the mass of the object, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height above the reference point.

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

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

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Uterus. The uterus, also known as the womb, is a muscular sac in the female reproductive system where a fertilized egg implants and develops into a fetus during pregnancy. It provides nourishment, support, and protection to the developing fetus until birth. The ovaries produce eggs, the fallopian tubes transport eggs to the uterus, and the vagina is the birth canal and the organ of sexual intercourse, but the uterus is specifically responsible for nurturing and protecting the developing fetus.

4. Which of the following units is equivalent to a joule?

• A. Newton-meter (N·m)
• B. Watt (W)
• C. Kilogram (kg)
• D. Ampere (A)

Correct answer: a

Rationale: A joule, as a unit of energy, is equivalent to a newton-meter in terms of work or energy.

5. What is the process by which a cell divides into two or more new cells?

• A. Mitosis
• B. Meiosis
• C. Both mitosis and meiosis
• D. None of the above

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Rationale: Mitosis is the process by which a cell divides into two identical daughter cells. This type of cell division is essential for growth, repair, and maintenance of multicellular organisms. Meiosis, on the other hand, is a type of cell division that produces gametes (sperm and egg cells) with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Therefore, meiosis is not the process by which a cell divides into two or more new cells. Option C is incorrect because meiosis is not involved in the general process of cell division to produce new cells. Option D is incorrect because mitosis is the correct process for cell division.

6. What is the process of separating a mixture based on the different boiling points of its components called?

• A. Filtration
• B. Chromatography
• C. Distillation
• D. Centrifugation

Correct answer: C

Rationale: This technique separates components based on their boiling points, allowing for the collection of fractions with different boiling ranges.
