1. What do contours refer to?

• A. Color
• B. Shape
• C. Size
• D. Texture

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Contours refer to the shape or outline of something. They represent the boundaries or curves that define the outer edges of an object or form. Colors, sizes, and textures do not encompass the concept of contours, making them incorrect choices in this context.

2. What does inhibiting mean?

• A. Blocking
• B. Hindering
• C. Energizing
• D. Slowing down improvement

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Hindering.' Inhibiting means to hinder or slow down a process rather than actively block or energize it. Hindering implies causing a delay or obstruction, which aligns closely with the meaning of inhibiting. Choices A and C are incorrect because inhibiting does not necessarily mean completely blocking or energizing a process. Choice D is incorrect as it specifically mentions improvement, which is not always the focus of inhibiting.

3. Which bone is shorter in the forearm?

• A. Humerus
• B. Radius
• C. Scapula
• D. Fibula

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Radius. The forearm consists of two long bones: the radius and the ulna. The radius is located on the thumb side of the forearm and is shorter than the ulna, which is on the pinky side. The humerus is the bone located in the upper arm, the scapula is the shoulder blade bone, and the fibula is a bone in the lower leg. Therefore, they are not the shorter bone in the forearm.

4. To implement something is to:

• A. prevent it from occurring
• B. emphasize the importance of
• C. cause it to happen
• D. follow from beginning to end

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'cause it to happen.' 'Implement' means to put something into action or cause it to happen. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the meaning of 'implement.' Preventing something from occurring (Choice A), emphasizing the importance of something (Choice B), and following something from beginning to end (Choice D) are all different actions or concepts that do not align with the definition of 'implement.'

5. What does Collusion refer to?

• A. Agreement
• B. Conspiracy
• C. Misunderstanding
• D. Honesty

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Collusion refers to a secret agreement or conspiracy, often for deceitful or illegal purposes. While choices A, C, and D may involve some level of agreement or understanding, collusion specifically implies a secretive and usually dishonest arrangement, making choices A, C, and D incorrect in this context.
