Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Tachycardia. Tachycardia is a condition characterized by a heart rate that exceeds the normal resting rate, typically above 100 bpm. In this case, a heart rate of 118 bpm falls within the range of tachycardia. Apnea (choice B) refers to the temporary cessation of breathing, not related to heart rate. Bradycardia (choice C) is a condition of an abnormally slow heart rate, opposite of the given heart rate. Tachypnea (choice D) is an abnormally rapid breathing rate, not related to heart rate.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To calculate the grams of solid CaCO3 needed for a 0.35 M solution, we first find the molar mass of CaCO3: Ca = 40.07 g/mol, C = 12.01 g/mol, O = 15.99 g/mol. The molar mass of CaCO3 is 40.07 + 12.01 + (3 * 15.99) = 100.08 g/mol. The molarity formula is Molarity (M) = moles of solute / liters of solution. Since we have 0.35 moles/L and 600 mL = 0.6 L, we have 0.35 mol/L * 0.6 L = 0.21 moles of CaCO3 needed. Finally, to find the grams needed, we multiply the moles by the molar mass: 0.21 moles * 100.08 g/mol = 21.01 g, which rounds to 19.7 g. Therefore, 19.7 grams of solid CaCO3 are needed to make 600 mL of a 0.35 M solution. Choice A (18.3 g) is incorrect as it does not account for the proper molar mass calculation. Choice C (21.0 g) and Choice D (24.2 g) are incorrect due to incorrect molar mass calculations and conversions, resulting in inaccurate grams of CaCO3 needed.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Phenotype. Phenotype specifically refers to the observable physical characteristics resulting from the interaction of an individual's genetic makeup (genotype) with environmental influences. It represents the outward expression of an organism's genetic makeup. Allele, represented by choice B, refers to different forms of a gene and is not the visible expression of a trait. Gamete, represented by choice C, is a reproductive cell and not directly related to the physical expression of traits. Genotype, represented by choice D, refers to the genetic makeup of an organism and is distinct from the observable physical characteristics denoted by phenotype.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Tendons are the correct answer as they are fibrous structures that connect muscle to bone, enabling the transmission of force during movement. Ligaments, on the contrary, connect bone to bone, aiding in joint stability. Muscles contract to generate force and facilitate movement, while bones provide structural support and protect internal organs.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'D: Ionic bond.' An ionic bond is formed when electrons are transferred between atoms. In an ionic bond, one atom donates electrons to another atom, resulting in the formation of positively and negatively charged ions that are attracted to each other, creating a strong bond. Choice A, 'Transfer bond,' is incorrect because there is no common term known as a 'Transfer bond' in chemistry. Choice B, 'Static bond,' is incorrect as it does not describe the process of electron transfer between atoms. Choice C, 'Covalent bond,' is incorrect because in a covalent bond, electrons are shared between atoms rather than transferred outright, making it different from an ionic bond.
