Sample Practice Test Questions
Which of the following is not true about mass and weight?
mass depends on the location where it is measured
Mass is the amount of matter something has while weight is the force exerted on an object's mass by gravity. So, although a person's mass doesn't change when going from the Earth to the Moon, their weight will decrease because the force of the Moon's gravity is much less than that of Earth.
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.
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.
Which of the following types of saws would you use if you needed to cut the wood quickly and weren't concerned with leaving rough edges?
rip saw
Wood saws are categorized primarily by their teeth. Crosscut saws utilize knife-shaped teeth that cut across the grain of the wood while rip saws cut with the grain using chisel-shaped teeth that rip the wood cells apart as the cut is made. The kerf (slot) made by by a crosscut saw is much smoother than that made by a rip saw but a rip saw cuts much faster. Coping saws are a type of bow saw used to make detailed often curving cuts using replaceable blades with fine small teeth.
What is \( \frac{28\sqrt{35}}{4\sqrt{5}} \)?
To divide terms with radicals, divide the coefficients and radicands separately:
\( \frac{28\sqrt{35}}{4\sqrt{5}} \)
\( \frac{28}{4} \) \( \sqrt{\frac{35}{5}} \)
7 \( \sqrt{7} \)
If a = c = 3, b = d = 8, and the blue angle = 58°, what is the area of this parallelogram?
The area of a parallelogram is equal to its length x width:
a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 3 x 8
a = 24
Antigens in the blood determine:
blood type
Blood is categorized into four different types (A, B, AB, and O) based on the type of antigens found on the outside of the red blood cells. Additionally, each type can be negative or positive based on whether or not the cells have an antigen called the Rh factor.
