1. How might an injury to the parietal lobe impact an individual?

• A. Breathing
• B. Attention
• C. Memory
• D. Perception

Correct answer: D

Rationale: An injury to the parietal lobe can impact an individual's perception, affecting their ability to interpret sensory information such as touch, spatial orientation, and recognizing objects. The parietal lobe is crucial for integrating sensory information and creating a coherent perception of the surrounding world. Damage to this area can lead to challenges with spatial awareness, object recognition, and accurate processing of sensory input. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because breathing, attention, and memory are primarily associated with other brain regions such as the brainstem, frontal lobe, and temporal lobe respectively, not the parietal lobe.

2. Identify the incomplete sentence.

• A. While they were sleeping.
• B. The dog slept.
• C. The sun rises in the east.
• D. They went home.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A, 'While they were sleeping.' This is an incomplete sentence as it lacks a main clause. A complete sentence should have both a subject and a predicate to express a complete thought. In this case, the subordinating conjunction 'while' introduces a dependent clause that needs to be connected to an independent clause to form a complete sentence. Choices B, C, and D are complete sentences as they each contain a subject and a predicate, expressing a complete thought.

3. Tundra, savannas, grasslands, deserts, and rainforests are examples of what?

• A. Biomasses
• B. Biospheres
• C. Biodiversity
• D. Biomes

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Tundra, savannas, grasslands, deserts, and rainforests are examples of biomes. A biome is a large geographical area with similar climatic conditions and distinct flora and fauna. Each biome has its unique characteristics, such as temperature, precipitation levels, and types of vegetation, which define the ecosystem within that region. Biomasses refer to the total mass of living organisms in a given area, biospheres are the global ecological system integrating all living beings and their relationships, and biodiversity represents the variety of life forms in a specific habitat.

4. What percentage of her income is left after Mary spent 15%?

• A. 12%
• B. 85%
• C. 75%
• D. 95%

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To determine the percentage of income remaining after spending 15%, subtract the percentage spent from 100% (100% - 15% = 85%). Therefore, Mary has 85% of her income left, which aligns with answer choice B. Choice A (12%) is incorrect because it represents the remaining amount after spending 88% of her income. Choice C (75%) is incorrect as it does not account for the 15% already spent. Choice D (95%) is incorrect as it does not consider the amount spent by Mary.

5. How many grams are in 10 kilograms?

• A. 10,000 grams
• B. 100 grams
• C. 1000 grams
• D. 100,000 grams

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 10,000 grams. There are 1,000 grams in a kilogram. Therefore, to find the number of grams in 10 kilograms, you multiply 10 (kilograms) by 1,000 (grams/kilogram) to get 10,000 grams. Choice B (100 grams) is incorrect as it represents the conversion for 1 kilogram, not 10 kilograms. Choice C (1000 grams) is incorrect as it is equal to 1 kilogram, not 10 kilograms. Choice D (100,000 grams) is incorrect as it represents the conversion for 100 kilograms, not 10 kilograms.
