1. 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.

2. An anatomical section that separates the body into right and left portions is a _______ section.

• A. frontal
• B. transverse
• C. coronal
• D. sagittal

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'sagittal.' A sagittal section divides the body into right and left portions. Choice A, 'frontal,' is incorrect as it divides the body into front and back portions. Choice B, 'transverse,' divides the body into upper and lower portions. Choice C, 'coronal,' divides the body into anterior and posterior portions. Therefore, 'sagittal' is the most appropriate term for a section separating the body into right and left portions.

3. What does magnetic resonance imaging use?

• A. X-rays.
• B. a radio antenna.
• C. radioisotopes.
• D. high-frequency sound waves.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) uses high-frequency sound waves to create detailed images of the inside of the body. X-rays (Choice A) use electromagnetic radiation, not sound waves, making it an incorrect choice. A radio antenna (Choice B) is used for communication, not for MRI imaging. Radioisotopes (Choice C) are used in nuclear medicine imaging techniques, not in MRI scans. Therefore, the correct answer is high-frequency sound waves (Choice D) as they are utilized in MRI technology to produce images.

4. Are kidneys part of the lymphatic system?

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

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is False. Kidneys are not part of the lymphatic system; they are part of the urinary system. The lymphatic system is a network of tissues and organs that help rid the body of toxins, waste, and other unwanted materials. Therefore, choices A, C, and D are incorrect because kidneys are not associated with the lymphatic system.

5. 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.
