1. A restricted diet is ___________.

• A. low in fat
• B. vegetarian
• C. banned
• D. limited

Correct answer: D

Rationale: A restricted diet is limited in some way, such as reducing the intake of certain foods, food groups, or nutrients. It may involve limitations on quantity, frequency, or types of foods consumed. This restriction could be related to health factors, allergies, sensitivities, ethical reasons, or personal preferences. Choice A, 'low in fat,' is too specific and does not encompass the broad concept of restriction in a diet. Choice B, 'vegetarian,' refers to a specific dietary pattern but does not necessarily indicate restriction. Choice C, 'banned,' is incorrect as it implies a complete prohibition rather than limitation, which is characteristic of a restricted diet.

2. What is one of the author’s primary purposes in writing this essay?

• A. To persuade
• B. To entertain
• C. To analyze
• D. To reflect

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The author primarily aims to persuade the reader of the health benefits of omega-3 fatty acids and encourages ensuring sufficient omega-3 intake through diet.

3. The renal system consists of all the organs involved in the formation and release of urine and includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra.

• A. The digestive system
• B. The reproductive system
• C. The renal system
• D. The kidney system

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct term for the system involving the organs responsible for the formation and release of urine is the renal system, not the digestive or reproductive system. The kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra are specifically part of the renal system, which is responsible for filtering the blood to remove waste and excess fluids, producing urine, and eliminating it from the body. The other choices, the digestive system and the reproductive system, are not responsible for the formation and release of urine, making them incorrect answers.

4. What is the charge of an alpha particle?

• A. -1
• B. +1
• C. +2
• D. No charge

Correct answer: C

Rationale: An alpha particle consists of two protons and two neutrons, resulting in a total charge of +2 due to the presence of two positively charged protons. Therefore, the correct answer is C, indicating a charge of +2. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because an alpha particle is positively charged due to the two protons it contains, resulting in a charge of +2.

5. What is the meaning of 'carnivore'?

• A. hungry
• B. meat-eating
• C. infected
• D. demented

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'meat-eating.' The term 'carnivore' specifically refers to an animal that primarily consumes meat. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because 'hungry' means feeling the need to eat, 'infected' refers to being affected by a disease or pathogen, and 'demented' means to be mentally disturbed.
