1. Macromolecules are built of?

• A. Monomers
• B. Incorrect
• C. Not Applicable
• D. None of the above

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Monomers. Macromolecules are built from smaller subunits called monomers. Monomers join together through chemical reactions to form larger molecules known as macromolecules. Option B is incorrect as it does not provide the accurate information regarding the composition of macromolecules. Option C is not applicable as it does not offer a relevant choice. Option D is incorrect because there is a specific answer related to the composition of macromolecules.

2. Temperature is a form of energy, whereas heat is a measurement of the intensity of the temperature.

• A. TRUE
• B. FALSE
• C. Not Sure
• D. None of the above

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The statement is true. Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance, while heat is the transfer of energy from a hotter object to a colder one. Heat is not a measurement of the intensity of temperature, but rather the energy transfer due to a temperature difference. Therefore, the correct answer is True. Choice B (False) is incorrect as the statement is true based on the definitions of temperature and heat.

3. What is the function of the gallbladder?

• A. Filters all of the blood in the body and breaks down poisonous substances, such as alcohol and drugs
• B. Make enzymes
• C. Store and concentrate bile, a fluid produced by the liver that helps with fat digestion
• D. Helps to further digest food

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Store and concentrate bile, a fluid produced by the liver that helps with fat digestion. The gallbladder stores bile produced by the liver and releases it to aid in the digestion of fats. Choice A is incorrect as the liver, not the gallbladder, filters blood and detoxifies harmful substances. Choice B is incorrect because the production of enzymes primarily occurs in the pancreas, not the gallbladder. Choice D is incorrect as the gallbladder's main role is not to further digest food but to store and release bile.

4. When the body is placed in the anatomical position, which of the following is not true?

• A. The head is facing to the front.
• B. The palms are facing forward.
• C. The body is erect.
• D. The upper limbs are at the sides.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In the anatomical position, the palms are facing forward, not backward. Choice A is correct because the head is indeed facing to the front. Choice C is correct as the body is erect. Choice D is correct as the upper limbs are positioned at the sides. Therefore, the incorrect statement is that the palms are facing forward.

5. Is the following statement true: The anatomical position is lying down, as a cadaver would be positioned?

• A. TRUE
• B. FALSE
• C. Not Sure
• D. None of the above

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is False. The anatomical position is a standardized way of describing the human body's orientation in a consistent manner. The anatomical position is standing upright, facing forward, with the arms at the sides and palms facing forward. This position serves as a reference point for anatomical descriptions and directional terms. Therefore, the statement that the anatomical position is lying down, as a cadaver would be positioned, is incorrect. Choice A is incorrect because the anatomical position is not lying down. Choices C and D are also incorrect as there is a definitive answer to the question.
