1. Where will a person who has damage to their ulnar nerve experience decreased sensation?

• A. Leg
• B. Arm
• C. Face
• D. Abdomen

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The ulnar nerve innervates the forearm and hand, specifically providing sensation to the ring and little fingers. Damage to this nerve can lead to decreased sensation in these areas, making the arm the correct answer. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because the ulnar nerve does not supply sensation to the leg, face, or abdomen.

2. 72 chromosomes undergo meiosis. How many chromosomes will be in each gamete?

• A. 18
• B. 36
• C. 72
• D. 144

Correct answer: A

Rationale: During meiosis, the number of chromosomes is halved in each gamete. Since 72 chromosomes undergo meiosis, each gamete will contain half of that number, which is 36 chromosomes. Therefore, the correct answer is 18 chromosomes in each gamete. Choice B (36 chromosomes) is incorrect because it represents the total number of chromosomes that undergo meiosis, not the number in each gamete. Choice C (72 chromosomes) is incorrect as it represents the initial number of chromosomes, not the number in each gamete after meiosis. Choice D (144 chromosomes) is incorrect as it doubles the initial number of chromosomes, which is not the outcome of meiosis.

3. Multiply: 6 × 0.06 =

• A. 0.0036
• B. 0.036
• C. 0.36
• D. 3.6

Correct answer: C

Rationale: When multiplying 6 by 0.06, you can treat 0.06 as 6 hundredths. So, 6 × 0.06 is equivalent to 6 × 6 hundredths, which equals 0.36. The correct answer is 0.36. Choice A (0.0036) is incorrect because it represents 6 multiplied by 0.0006, not 0.06. Choice B (0.036) is incorrect as it represents 6 multiplied by 0.06 without considering the position of the decimal point. Choice D (3.6) is incorrect as it represents 6 multiplied by 6, not by 0.06.

4. The passage mentions all of the following claims for the health benefits of super foods EXCEPT ___________.

• A. lowering cholesterol
• B. stabilizing insulin levels
• C. building muscle mass
• D. reducing blood pressure

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The passage discusses various health benefits of superfoods, such as lowering cholesterol, stabilizing insulin levels, and reducing blood pressure. However, it does not mention anything about building muscle mass, making C the correct choice as it identifies the claim that is not supported by the passage.

5. What is the meaning of Collusion?

• A. Cooperation
• B. Conspiracy
• C. Separation
• D. Rejection

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Conspiracy.' Collusion refers to a secret agreement or conspiracy, often for deceitful or illegal purposes. Choice A, 'Cooperation,' is incorrect as collusion implies a deceptive or dishonest agreement, not a genuine cooperation. Choice C, 'Separation,' is incorrect as it denotes the opposite of collusion, which involves working together secretly. Choice D, 'Rejection,' is unrelated to collusion, which involves secret cooperation for deceptive purposes.
