Sample Practice Test Questions
The mechanical advantage (MA) of a wedge is its length divided by its thickness:
MA = \( \frac{l}{t} \) = \( \frac{12 in.}{3 in.} \) = 4
What part of the brain is responsible for for balance, movement, and muscle coordination?
cerebellum
The cerebellum is a large cluster of nerves at the base of the brain that's responsible for balance, movement, and muscle coordination.
Plant cells may generate energy through which of the following?
photosynthesis
Some plant cells produce their own energy through photosynthesis which is the process by which sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water react to make sugar and oxygen. Animal cells cannot produce their own energy and, instead, generate energy when mitochondria consume outside sugar and oxygen through aerobic respiration.
You would measure the amount of current through a circuit with a(n):
ammeter
Current is the rate of flow of electrons per unit time and is measured in amperes (A). An ammeter is used to measure the electric current in a circuit.
Gametes have how many pairs of chromosomes?
23
Reproductive (haploid) cells known as gametes have half as many (23) pairs of chromosomes as normal (diploid) cells. When the male gamete (sperm) combines with the female gamete (ovum) through meiosis to form a zygote, each gamete supplies half the chromosomes needed to form the normal diploid cells.
Molecules and atoms that are outputs from a chemical reaction are known as which of the following?
products
During a chemical reaction molecules and atoms (reactants) are rearranged into new combinations that result in new kinds of atoms or molecules (products).
