Sample Practice Test Questions

Word Knowledge
Placebo most nearly means:
sugar pill
An inactive substance used in medical testing.
General Science

The energy posessed by a thrown baseball is an example of what kind of energy?

kinetic

Kinetic energy is the energy posessed by a moving object. Potential energy is stored energy in a stationary object based on its location, position, shape, or state.

Arithmetic Reasoning

a(b + c) = ab + ac defines which of the following?

distributive property for multiplication

The distributive property for multiplication helps in solving expressions like a(b + c). It specifies that the result of multiplying one number by the sum or difference of two numbers can be obtained by multiplying each number individually and then totaling the results: a(b + c) = ab + ac. For example, 4(10-5) = (4 x 10) - (4 x 5) = 40 - 20 = 20.

General Science

During continental drift, the drifting plates move across which of the following?

liquid mantle

The crust and the rigid lithosphere (upper mantle) is made up of approximately thirty separate plates. These plates more very slowly on the slightly more liquid mantle (asthenosphere) beneath them. This movement has resulted in continental drift which is the gradual movement of land masses across Earth's surface. Continental drift is a very slow process, occurring over hundreds of millions of years.

Arithmetic Reasoning

Simplify \( \frac{24}{56} \).

\( \frac{3}{7} \)

To simplify this fraction, first find the greatest common factor between them. The factors of 24 are [1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24] and the factors of 56 are [1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 28, 56]. They share 4 factors [1, 2, 4, 8] making 8 their greatest common factor (GCF).

Next, divide both numerator and denominator by the GCF:

\( \frac{24}{56} \) = \( \frac{\frac{24}{8}}{\frac{56}{8}} \) = \( \frac{3}{7} \)

General Science

Which of these foods should a person with high cholesterol avoid?

eggs

Fats come in three types, saturated (meats, shellfish, eggs, milk), monounsaturated (olives, almonds, avocados), and polyunsaturated (vegetable oils). Saturated fats can raise LDL ("bad") cholesterol while unsaturated fats can decrease it.

General Science

Most digestion takes place where?

small intestine

The small intestine is where most digestion takes place. As food travels along the small intestine it gets broken down completely by enzymes secreted from the walls. These enzymes are produced in the small intestine as well as in the pancreas and liver. After the enzymes break down the food, the resulting substances are then absorbed into the blood via capillaries in the small intestine walls.

Math Knowledge

Which of the following statements about a parallelogram is not true?

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) and angles (red = red, blue = blue) are equal. The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d).

Math Knowledge

Solve for z:
-5z - 3 = \( \frac{z}{-3} \)

-\(\frac{9}{14}\)

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the equal sign and the answer on the other.

-5z - 3 = \( \frac{z}{-3} \)
-3 x (-5z - 3) = z
(-3 x -5z) + (-3 x -3) = z
15z + 9 = z
15z + 9 - z = 0
15z - z = -9
14z = -9
z = \( \frac{-9}{14} \)
z = -\(\frac{9}{14}\)

General Science

In which type of compound does one atom borrow an electron from another atom?

ionic

A compound is a substance containing two or more different chemical elements bound together by a chemical bond. In covalent compounds, electrons are shared between atoms. In ionic compounds, one atom borrows an electron from another atom resulting in two ions (electrically charged atoms) of opposite polarities that then become bonded electrostatically.
