1. What is another word for Asymmetric?

• A. Even
• B. Uneven
• C. Identical
• D. Matching

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Uneven.' Asymmetric means lacking symmetry or being uneven, so the term 'Uneven' is the most appropriate synonym. 'Even' (choice A) means equal or level, which is the opposite of asymmetric. 'Identical' (choice C) means similar or the same, and 'Matching' (choice D) means corresponding or fitting together, neither of which captures the meaning of asymmetric.

2. What is the best description for the term flaccid?

• A. Light-colored
• B. Drooping or loose
• C. Uncontaminated
• D. Unusually aggressive

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The term 'flaccid' is commonly used to describe something that is limp, soft, or lacking firmness. It suggests a lack of stiffness or rigidity, often used to describe plants, muscles, or other objects that are in a drooping or loose state. Choice A 'Light-colored' is incorrect as it does not convey the meaning of flaccid. Choice C 'Uncontaminated' and Choice D 'Unusually aggressive' are also incorrect as they do not relate to the definition of flaccid.

Choice B, 'Disappearance,' is incorrect as it means vanishing or ceasing to exist. Choice C, 'Growth,' is incorrect as it refers to an increase in size, number, or development. Choice D, 'Repetition,' is incorrect as it means the action of repeating something that has already been said or written.

• A. Adjective
