1. Which of the following choices shows the best chronological order for the sentences within the paragraph?

• A. IV, II, I, III
• B. III, IV, II, I
• C. I, II, III, IV
• D. III, I, IV, II

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct chronological order for the sentences within a paragraph should follow the sequence of events logically. In this case, 'I, II, III, IV' is the correct order. Sentence I usually sets the stage or introduces the main idea, followed by sentence II, which provides additional information. Sentence III usually presents the climax or a turning point, leading to sentence IV, which wraps up the paragraph. Choice C, 'I, II, III, IV,' maintains this logical progression, making it the best chronological order. Choices A, B, and D do not follow a coherent chronological sequence and disrupt the flow of events within the paragraph.

2. The control center of the cell, containing genetic information (DNA), is the:

• A. Golgi apparatus
• B. Ribosome
• C. Nucleus
• D. Endoplasmic reticulum

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C, the nucleus. The nucleus is the control center of the cell and houses the genetic information in the form of DNA. The Golgi apparatus (choice A) is responsible for packaging and processing proteins, the ribosome (choice B) is involved in protein synthesis, and the endoplasmic reticulum (choice D) is involved in protein and lipid synthesis. Therefore, choices A, B, and D are not the correct answers as they do not house the genetic information or serve as the control center of the cell.

3. Which brain structure is responsible for processing visual information?

• A. Cerebrum
• B. Occipital lobe
• C. Frontal lobe
• D. Brainstem

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The corrected question and choices are accurate. The correct answer is the Occipital lobe. The occipital lobe, located at the back of the brain, is primarily responsible for processing visual information received from the eyes. It plays a crucial role in interpreting and making sense of visual stimuli, allowing us to perceive and understand the world around us. The other choices, cerebrum (A), frontal lobe (C), and brainstem (D), do not have the primary function of processing visual information. The cerebrum is involved in higher brain functions, the frontal lobe is responsible for decision-making and personality, and the brainstem controls basic life functions like breathing and heart rate.

4. If an atom has 32 neutrons, 17 protons, and 19 electrons, what is its charge?

• A. Positive
• B. Negative
• C. Neutral
• D. Cannot be determined

Correct answer: A

Rationale: An atom's charge is determined by the difference between the number of protons and electrons. Since the atom has 17 protons and 19 electrons, the net charge is positive. The excess of two electrons compared to protons results in a positive charge. Choice B (Negative) is incorrect because the atom has more protons than electrons, leading to a positive charge. Choice C (Neutral) is incorrect because the atom has an imbalance between protons and electrons, resulting in a charge. Choice D (Cannot be determined) is incorrect as the charge can be determined based on the given information.

5. Which of the following perspectives can be inferred from the passage?

• A. Cicadas and public interest in cicadas are cyclical.
• B. Cicadas and public interest in cicadas are global.
• C. Cicadas and public interest in cicadas are inspirational.
• D. Cicadas and public interest in cicadas are inapplicable.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. The passage provided talks about the cyclical nature of going to the theatre and how it transports individuals into different stories. There is no mention of global aspects, inspirational qualities, or inapplicability related to cicadas and public interest in cicadas. Therefore, choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they are not supported by the passage.
