TEAS 7 science practice Questions
Question 1 of 5
What happens to the work done on an object when the angle between the force and displacement is 90 degrees?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: When the angle between the force and displacement is 90 degrees, the work done is given by the formula W = F * d * cos(theta), where theta is the angle between the force and displacement vectors. Since cos(90 degrees) = 0, the work done becomes zero. This means that no work is done on the object when the angle between the force and displacement is 90 degrees. Choice A is incorrect because maximum work is done when the force and displacement are in the same direction (theta = 0 degrees). Choice C is incorrect as minimum work is done when the force and displacement are parallel (theta = 0 degrees), not perpendicular. Choice D is incorrect because work cannot be infinite; it depends on the force, displacement, and the cosine of the angle between them.
Question 2 of 5
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic condition affecting blood sugar control. What is the main type of hormone deficiency associated with type 1 diabetes?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Insulin. Type 1 diabetes is characterized by the body's inability to produce insulin, the hormone responsible for regulating blood sugar levels. Insulin deficiency in type 1 diabetes leads to high blood sugar levels as the body cannot effectively utilize glucose for energy. Glucagon (Choice B) is a hormone that works opposite to insulin, raising blood sugar levels. Estrogen (Choice C) and testosterone (Choice D) are not directly involved in blood sugar control or the pathophysiology of type 1 diabetes.
Question 3 of 5
What is a lysosome?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: A lysosome is a membrane-bound organelle found in animal cells that contains digestive enzymes. These enzymes are responsible for breaking down various cellular components, such as proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, and even foreign particles like bacteria. This breakdown process is crucial for maintaining cell health and function by recycling and disposing of cellular waste. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because lysosomes are not involved in transporting proteins and lipids throughout the cell (option B), protein synthesis (option C), or cellular respiration (option D). Lysosomes primarily function as the cell's 'recycling center' by breaking down and processing cellular materials.
Question 4 of 5
What is the external body covering, providing protection and contributing to temperature regulation, composed of?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The external body covering, which is the skin, is composed of epithelial tissue. Epithelial tissue serves as a protective barrier against pathogens, chemicals, and physical damage. It also helps regulate body temperature through processes like sweating. Choice A (Muscle tissue) is incorrect as muscles are responsible for movement and not the external body covering. Choice C (Bone marrow) is incorrect as it is a component of the skeletal system and not the external body covering. Choice D (Cartilage) is incorrect as cartilage is a type of connective tissue found in joints and the structure of some body parts, not the external body covering.
Question 5 of 5
During which stage of meiosis II are sister chromatids separated, resulting in four genetically unique daughter cells?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: - Prophase I occurs in meiosis I, not meiosis II. During Prophase I, homologous chromosomes pair up and exchange genetic material in a process called crossing over. - Prophase II is the stage where the nuclear envelope breaks down, and spindle fibers start to reappear, preparing the cell for division. Sister chromatids are still attached during Prophase II. - Anaphase I is the stage in meiosis I where homologous chromosomes are separated and pulled to opposite poles of the cell. - Anaphase II is the stage in meiosis II where sister chromatids are separated and pulled to opposite poles of the cell, resulting in four genetically unique daughter cells. This is the stage where the final separation of genetic material occurs, leading to the formation of haploid daughter cells.
