1. What are the four main regions of the stomach?

• A. Pylorus, cecum, fundus, body
• B. Cardia, fundus, body, pylorus
• C. Duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum
• D. Cardia, fundus, body, ileum

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Cardia, fundus, body, pylorus. The four main regions of the stomach are the cardia (where food enters), fundus (upper part), body (largest part), and pylorus (exit part to the small intestine). These regions play specific roles in the digestion process. Choice A is incorrect because the cecum is part of the large intestine, not the stomach. Choice C lists parts of the small intestine, not the stomach. Choice D is incorrect as the ileum is the last part of the small intestine, not a region of the stomach.

2. What is the area of a square that measures 3.1m on each side?

• A. 12.4m²
• B. 9.61m²
• C. 6.2m²
• D. 9.1m²

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find the area of a square, you square the length of one side. In this case, the side length is 3.1m. So, Area = side² = 3.1m × 3.1m = 9.61m². Therefore, the correct answer is 9.61m². Choice A (12.4m²) is incorrect as it is the result of multiplying 3.1m by 4 instead of squaring it. Choice C (6.2m²) is incorrect as it is half of the correct answer. Choice D (9.1m²) is incorrect as it is the result of squaring the wrong value (3.1²).

3. Which property of a substance refers to its ability to undergo a chemical change and form new substances?

• A. Density
• B. Mass
• C. Reactivity
• D. Volume

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Reactivity is the property of a substance that describes its ability to undergo a chemical change and form new substances through chemical reactions. Density, mass, and volume are physical properties of a substance and do not directly relate to its ability to undergo chemical changes. Density is the mass of a substance per unit volume, mass is the amount of matter present, and volume is the amount of space occupied by the substance. Reactivity specifically deals with how likely a substance is to engage in chemical reactions. Therefore, the correct answer is C - Reactivity.

4. In which type of cell would you expect to find a high concentration of lysosomes?

• A. Cardiac cells
• B. Glandular cells
• C. Immune cells
• D. Neurons

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Immune cells. Immune cells, such as macrophages, contain many lysosomes for breaking down pathogens. Lysosomes are organelles responsible for digestion and waste removal within the cell, and immune cells require a high concentration of lysosomes to aid in their defense mechanisms against pathogens. Choice A, Cardiac cells, is incorrect because lysosomes are not primarily abundant in cardiac cells. Choice B, Glandular cells, is incorrect as well since lysosomes are not specifically concentrated in glandular cells. Choice D, Neurons, is also incorrect because while lysosomes are present in neurons, they are not typically found in high concentrations compared to immune cells.

5. Jacob has $100. She spends 87% of the money. She then invests the remaining amount and earns a profit of 75%. How much money does she now have?

• A. $13.00
• B. $87.00
• C. $22.75
• D. $9.75

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Jacob spends 87% of $100, which is $87, leaving her with $13. When she invests the remaining $13 and earns a 75% profit, she gains an additional $9.75. Thus, the total amount she now has is $13 (remaining amount) + $9.75 (profit) = $22.75. Choice A is incorrect as it reflects the remaining amount before investing and earning a profit. Choice B is incorrect as it does not account for the profit earned from the investment. Choice D is incorrect as it only considers the profit amount, not the total sum.
