1. What is 70% of 65?

• A. 40.5
• B. 45.5
• C. 50
• D. 55

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find 70% of 65, you multiply 0.7 by 65. Mathematically, 0.7 * 65 = 45.5. Therefore, the correct answer is 45.5. Choice A (40.5) is incorrect because it is not the result of multiplying 0.7 by 65. Choice C (50) is incorrect as it is higher than the correct answer. Choice D (55) is also higher than the correct result and is therefore incorrect.

2. What is 50% of 120?

• A. 50
• B. 50
• C. 70
• D. 60

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, 60. To find 50% of 120, you multiply 0.5 by 120: 0.5 x 120 = 60. Choice A and B are incorrect as they are duplicates. Choice C, 70, is incorrect because it is not the result of calculating 50% of 120.

3. How does insomnia affect intellectual abilities?

• A. Causes a deficit in memory, concentration, and attention.
• B. Improves mental alertness.
• C. Boosts concentration levels.
• D. Has no effect on intellectual abilities.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Insomnia affects intellectual abilities by causing a deficit in memory, concentration, and attention. The passage highlights that lack of sleep impacts memory, attention, and concentration, leading to feelings of irritation or depression. Therefore, choice A is correct. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not align with the negative impact insomnia has on intellectual abilities as described in the passage.

4. Why does cellular respiration happen?

• A. Cells can copy DNA
• B. Cells can breathe
• C. Cells can convert nutrients to energy
• D. Cells can divide

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Cellular respiration is the process through which cells break down nutrients such as glucose to produce ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the energy currency of the cell. This process allows cells to extract energy from food molecules and use it for various cellular activities and functions. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because cellular respiration is specifically about converting nutrients to energy, not about DNA copying, breathing, or cell division.

5. What charge do Group VIA elements typically have?

• A. -1
• B. -2
• C. -3
• D. 0

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Group VIA elements, also known as Group 16 elements, typically have a charge of -2. This is because they have 6 valence electrons and tend to gain 2 electrons to achieve a stable octet configuration, resulting in a -2 charge. Choice A (-1) is incorrect as Group VIA elements need to gain 2 electrons for stability, not just 1. Choice C (-3) is incorrect because Group VIA elements do not need to gain 3 electrons to achieve stability. Choice D (0) is incorrect as Group VIA elements need to gain electrons to reach a stable configuration, resulting in a negative charge.
