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 the word 'rapport' mean in the sentence: 'The nurses and teenage aides developed a quick rapport'?

• A. Performance
• B. Narrative
• C. Manner
• D. Bond

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, 'Bond.' In this context, 'rapport' refers to a close and harmonious relationship or connection between people. The sentence suggests that a bond or connection developed quickly between the nurses and teenage aides. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because 'rapport' does not relate to performance, narrative, or manner in this context.

3. What is the term for the lower surface of a structure?

• A. Inferior
• B. Transverse
• C. Dorsal
• D. Ventral

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The term for the lower surface of a structure is 'ventral.' 'Ventral' is used in anatomy to describe the front or lower surface of an organism or structure. In this context, 'inferior' (choice A) is not the correct term as it generally refers to something being below or lower in position but not specifically the lower surface of a structure. 'Transverse' (choice B) refers to a crosswise direction, not the lower surface. 'Dorsal' (choice C) is the term used for the upper or back surface of an organism or structure, opposite to the ventral surface.

4. HPV is likely to involve the ___________.

• A. skull and spine
• B. mucous membranes
• C. kidneys
• D. heart

Correct answer: B

Rationale: HPV, which stands for Human Papillomavirus, is a virus that commonly affects the skin and mucous membranes. It primarily targets the genital area but can also infect the mouth and throat through oral-genital contact. Therefore, the most likely involvement of HPV is with the mucous membranes, making option B the correct choice. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because HPV does not typically affect the skull, spine, kidneys, or heart.

5. What is a Nutrient?

• A. A chemical compound
• B. A substance that provides nourishment
• C. A non-essential mineral
• D. An essential vitamin

Correct answer: B

Rationale: A nutrient is a substance that provides nourishment to the body, such as carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals. Choice A has been improved to 'A chemical compound' to be more specific. Choice A is incorrect as it is too general and does not specifically describe the role of a nutrient. Choice C is incorrect as it focuses on minerals without specifying that all minerals are nutrients. Choice D is also incorrect as it solely emphasizes vitamins, which are just one type of nutrient.
