1. What is the relationship between work, force, and displacement?

• A. Work is directly proportional to force but inversely proportional to displacement
• B. Work is directly proportional to both force and displacement
• C. Work is inversely proportional to force but directly proportional to displacement
• D. Work is inversely proportional to both force and displacement

Correct answer: b

Rationale: Work done is the product of force and displacement in the direction of the force.

2. The protective fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord is called:

• A. Blood
• B. Cerebrospinal fluid
• C. Plasma
• D. Myelin

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Cerebrospinal fluid. Cerebrospinal fluid is a clear, colorless liquid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord, providing cushioning and protection against physical impact. It also helps to maintain a stable environment for the central nervous system by regulating pressure and removing waste products. Blood (option A) is not the fluid that directly surrounds the brain and spinal cord. Plasma (option C) is the liquid component of blood and is not specific to the central nervous system. Myelin (option D) is a fatty substance that forms a protective sheath around nerve fibers but is not the fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord.

3. What is the main idea of the following passage: "The internet has revolutionized communication, allowing people to connect instantly from anywhere in the world. Social media platforms, like Facebook and Twitter, have further amplified this connectivity, enabling individuals to share information and ideas on a global scale."

• A. The internet is a source of entertainment.
• B. Social media is the only way to communicate online.
• C. The internet has transformed communication globally.
• D. Technology is becoming increasingly complex.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The passage emphasizes the transformative impact of the internet and social media on communication.

4. Which of the following is the basic unit of the nervous system?

• A. Neuron
• B. Nerve
• C. Ganglion
• D. Neuroglia

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Rationale: Neurons are the basic structural and functional units of the nervous system. They are specialized cells that transmit information through electrical and chemical signals. Nerves are bundles of neurons, ganglia are clusters of nerve cell bodies outside the central nervous system, and neuroglia are support cells for neurons. However, neurons are specifically responsible for transmitting and processing information in the nervous system, making them the basic unit of this system.

5. Which type of waves exhibit both longitudinal and transverse motion?

• A. Electromagnetic waves
• B. Surface waves
• C. Mechanical waves
• D. Sound waves

Correct answer: b

Rationale: Surface waves, like those on water surfaces, exhibit both longitudinal and transverse motion.

6. Which force causes an object to move in a circular path?

• A. Tension force
• B. Frictional force
• C. Centripetal force
• D. Gravitational force

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Centripetal force is the force that acts towards the center of a circular path, keeping an object in circular motion.
