Sample Practice Test Questions
Antigens are found on the outside of which blood cells?
red
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.
Carbohydrates are found in:
sugars and starches
Carbohydrates are major sources of energy for the body and are found in sugars (fruit, cane sugar, beets) and starches (bread, rice, potatoes, pasta).
A joint created by soldering is:
weaker than a weld
A joint created by soldering is not as strong as a weld and not as strong as the original metal.
Which of the following statements about welding is not true?
no filler metal is required when welding
Welding is a high-temperature process that involves melting the base metals in the objects to be joined to fuse them together. A filler metal is used to provide additional material to make up a joint that, depending on the weld type, can be stronger than the base materials alone. Oxyacetylene welding is a welding process that uses a torch fueled with oxygen and acetylene gases. Electric-arc welding utlizes electric current in a safer welding process (it doesn't involve burning explosive gases) that enables a wide variety of specialized applications like stick, MIG (metal inert gas), and TIG (tungsten inert gas) welding.
Which of the following is not a characteristic of a ceramic?
low density
Ceramics are mixtures of metallic and nonmetallic elements that withstand exteme thermal, chemical, and pressure environments. They have a high melting point, low corrosive action, and are chemically stable. Examples include rock, sand, clay, glass, brick, and porcelain.
What part of the brain is responsible for the major senses (thinking, hearing, seeing)?
cerebrum
The cerebrum is the major part of the brain and is responsible for the main senses (thinking, hearing, seeing).
