1. Convert 63 grams to mg.

• A. 630 mg.
• B. 63 mg.
• C. 63000 mg.
• D. 63,000 mg

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To convert grams to milligrams, you need to multiply by 1000 since there are 1000 milligrams in a gram. So, to convert 63 grams to milligrams, you would calculate 63 * 1000 = 63,000 milligrams. Therefore, the correct answer is 63,000 mg. Choice A (630 mg) is incorrect as it would be the converted value if the original amount was 0.63 grams. Choice B (63 mg) is incorrect as it is the same value as the original grams. Choice D (63,000 mg) is incorrect as it is the same as the correct answer, but with a comma which is not standard when expressing numerical values.

2. Solve for x: 4x + 2 = 18.

• A. x = 4
• B. x = 4
• C. x = 5
• D. x = 3

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To solve for x, first, subtract 2 from both sides of the equation: 4x = 16. Then, divide by 4 to isolate x: x = 4. Choice A, x = 4, is the correct answer as calculated. Choice C, x = 5, is incorrect because the correct value of x is 4, not 5. Choice D, x = 3, is incorrect as well, as the correct value of x is 4, not 3.

3. Which nutrients are important for bone health?

• A. Vitamin D
• B. Calcium and phosphorus
• C. Iron and zinc
• D. Magnesium and sodium

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Calcium and phosphorus are crucial nutrients for bone health as they are essential minerals required for bone strength, density, and various body functions. Adequate intake of calcium and phosphorus through the diet is important for maintaining healthy bones and preventing conditions like osteoporosis. Vitamin D helps with calcium absorption, but it is not the main nutrient responsible for bone health. Iron and zinc are important for other bodily functions, not specifically bone health. Magnesium and sodium, while important for overall health, are not as directly linked to bone health as calcium and phosphorus.

4. What is the SI unit of energy?

• A. ohm
• B. joule
• C. henry
• D. newton

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The SI unit of energy is the 'joule'. The joule is defined as the work done when a force of one newton acts over a distance of one meter. It is the standard unit used to measure energy in the International System of Units (SI). Therefore, the correct answer is 'joule.' Choice A, 'ohm,' is the SI unit of electrical resistance, not energy. Choice C, 'henry,' is the SI unit of inductance, not energy. Choice D, 'newton,' is the SI unit of force, not energy. Hence, they are all incorrect in the context of measuring energy.

5. The number of people _____ from other counties to the United States has caused a shift in unemployment in the textile market.

• A. Emigrating
• B. Immigrating
• C. Migrating
• D. Emigrated

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Immigrating' because it refers to people coming to live permanently in a foreign country. 'Emigrating' (Choice A) means leaving one's own country to settle permanently in another, which does not fit the context of people coming into the United States. 'Migrating' (Choice C) is a general term for moving from one place to another without emphasizing the aspect of settling in a new country. 'Emigrated' (Choice D) is the past tense of emigrate and does not convey the ongoing action of people moving to the United States.
