1. Which of the following organisms would not have eukaryotic cells?

• A. Bacteria
• B. Dog
• C. Human
• D. Onion

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A, Bacteria. Bacteria do not have eukaryotic cells. They are single-celled organisms with prokaryotic cells. Dogs, humans, and onions are all multicellular organisms that possess eukaryotic cells. Therefore, choices B, C, and D have eukaryotic cells and are not the correct answer.

2. A die is rolled. What is the probability of getting 5?

• A. 16.67%
• B. 20%
• C. 50%
• D. 83.33%

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 16.67%. When rolling a standard 6-sided die, each face has an equal probability of 1/6. Therefore, the probability of rolling a 5 specifically is 1/6, which is approximately 16.67% when converted to a percentage. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct probability of rolling a 5 on a standard die.

3. Round to the tenths place: What is 6.4% of 32?

• A. 1.8
• B. 2.1
• C. 2.6
• D. 2.0

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find 6.4% of 32, first calculate 6.4% as a decimal (0.064) and then multiply it by 32 to get 2.048. When rounding to the tenths place, 2.048 is rounded to 2.1 because the digit after the tenths place is 8, which is equal to or greater than 5. Choice A is incorrect as it does not reflect the accurate calculation. Choices C and D are also incorrect because they do not match the correct result of multiplying 6.4% by 32 and rounding to the tenths place.

4. Select the word that makes the following sentence grammatically correct. It is important that one is able to self-motivate and work by ___________.

• A. oneself
• B. oneselves
• C. hisself
• D. themselves

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The word 'oneself' is a reflexive pronoun that refers back to the subject of the sentence, allowing the sentence to be grammatically correct. Options B and C, 'oneselves' and 'hisself,' are not standard English words. Option D, 'themselves,' is a plural pronoun and does not agree with the singular noun 'one' in the sentence.

5. Choose the meaning of the word 'indigent' in the following sentence: The hospital accepts a certain quota of indigent patients.

• A. Impoverished
• B. Resentful
• C. Apathetic
• D. Uninjured

Correct answer: A

Rationale: In this context, 'indigent' means impoverished or needy. The sentence conveys that the hospital takes in a specific number of financially disadvantaged patients. Choice B, 'Resentful,' does not align with the context of the sentence. Choice C, 'Apathetic,' does not describe the financial status of the patients. Choice D, 'Uninjured,' is unrelated to the meaning of 'indigent' in the sentence.
