Question 1 of 5

Which type of bond is exemplified by KCl?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: KCl exemplifies an ionic bond. In an ionic bond, electrons are transferred between atoms, resulting in the formation of ions. In the case of KCl, potassium (K) donates an electron to chlorine (Cl), leading to the creation of K+ and Cl- ions, which are held together by electrostatic forces of attraction.
Choice B, covalent bond, is incorrect because covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms, not the transfer of electrons as seen in KCl.
Choice C, hydrogen bond, is incorrect as hydrogen bonds are a type of intermolecular force, not a bond formed by the transfer or sharing of electrons between atoms.
Choice D, polar covalent bond, is also incorrect because although it involves the sharing of electrons with an unequal distribution of charge, KCl is a clear example of ionic bonding where electrons are completely transferred.

Question 2 of 5

Which of the following organs is responsible for producing digestive enzymes?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is the Pancreas. The pancreas is an organ that produces digestive enzymes to aid in the breakdown of food in the small intestine. These enzymes play a crucial role in the digestion and absorption of nutrients from the food we eat. The liver is responsible for producing bile, not digestive enzymes. The gallbladder stores and concentrates bile produced by the liver, which aids in the digestion of fats. The esophagus is a muscular tube that helps in the movement of food from the mouth to the stomach and does not produce digestive enzymes.

Question 3 of 5

What is the primary function of the liver related to digestion?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The primary function of the liver related to digestion is to filter and detoxify byproducts of digestion, including toxins and metabolic waste products. While the liver does produce bile and convert waste ammonia into urea, these functions are not directly related to digestion. Storing bile is mainly done by the gallbladder, not the liver.

Question 4 of 5

Which of the following water-soluble vitamins is NOT synthesized in the large intestine?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: B6. Vitamin B6 is not synthesized in the large intestine, while biotin, pantothenic acid (Vitamin B5), and Vitamin K can be synthesized by gut microflora. Biotin, B5, and K are examples of water-soluble vitamins that can be produced in the large intestine, but B6 needs to be obtained through dietary sources.
Therefore, B6 is the correct answer as it is not synthesized within the large intestine, unlike the other options.

Question 5 of 5

Which hormone is released by the ovaries to mature an egg?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is Estrogen (
Choice
A). Estrogen is produced by the ovaries and is essential for the maturation of eggs. It plays a crucial role in the development of secondary sexual characteristics, regulation of the menstrual cycle, and preparation of the uterus for implantation of a fertilized egg. Luteinizing Hormone (
Choice
B) is released by the pituitary gland and plays a role in ovulation, not the maturation of eggs. Progesterone (
Choice
C) is produced by the ovaries after ovulation and is important for preparing the uterus for pregnancy, not maturing eggs. Testosterone (
Choice
D) is a male sex hormone primarily produced in the testes, and while small amounts are also produced in the ovaries, it is not the hormone responsible for maturing eggs.
