Sample Practice Test Questions

General Science

In taxonomy, domains are the broadest classification of life. How many domains are there?

3

The broadest classification of life splits all organisms into three groups called domains. The three domains of life are bacteria, archaea and eukaryota.

General Science

The fossil record is a product of which period of Earth's history?

Cambrian

The Cambrian period is one of the most significant geological time periods. Lasting about 53 million years, it marked a dramatic burst of changes in life on Earth known as the Cambrian Explosion. It is from this period that the majority of the history of life on Earth, as documented by fossils, is found. Called the fossil record, the layering of these mineralized imprints of organisms preserved in sedementary rock have allowed geologists to build a historical record of plant and animal life on Earth.

Math Knowledge
2\(\frac{1}{2}\)

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -7) and (2, 3). What is the slope of this line?

2\(\frac{1}{2}\)

The slope of this line is the change in y divided by the change in x. The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -7) and (2, 3) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(3.0) - (-7.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{10}{4} \)
m = 2\(\frac{1}{2}\)

General Science

In fermentation, what replaces oxygen in anaerobic respiration?

lactic acid or alcohol

If no oxygen is present, cellular respiration is anaerobic and will result in fermentation where either lactic acid or alcohol is used instead of oxygen.

Math Knowledge

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

h x l x w

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.

Math Knowledge
\( \sqrt{80} \)

If side a = 8, side b = 4, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

\( \sqrt{80} \)

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 82 + 42
c2 = 64 + 16
c2 = 80
c = \( \sqrt{80} \)

Electronics Information

A capacitor to an electronic circuit is like a _______________ to a house?

storage shed

Capacitors store electricity and are used in circuits as temporary batteries. Capacitors are charged by DC current (AC current passes through a capacitor) and that stored charge can later be dissipated into the circuit as needed. Capacitors are often used to maintain power within a system when it is disconnected from its primary power source or to smooth out or filter voltage within a circuit.

Mechanical Comprehension

The advantage of using a third-class lever is that it increases:

the speed of the load

A third-class lever is used to increase distance traveled by an object in the same direction as the force applied. The fulcrum is at one end of the lever, the object at the other, and the force is applied between them. This lever does not impart a mechanical advantage as the effort force must be greater than the load but does impart extra speed to the load. Examples of third-class levers are shovels and tweezers.

General Science

The ovum and oviduct are part of which bodily system?

reproductive

Approximately every 28 days during female ovulation an egg (ovum) is released from one of the ovaries and travels through the oviduct (fallopian tube) and into the uterus. At the same time, the endometrial lining of the uterus becomes prepared for implantation.

General Science

Which of the following is true about species groups?

a community is made up of a group of populations

population is a group of organisms of the same species who live in the same area at the same time. A community is a group of populations living and interacting with each other in an area.
