Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Transcription is the correct answer. Transcription is the process of making copies of RNA from DNA. During transcription, the enzyme RNA polymerase binds to a specific region of DNA and synthesizes a complementary RNA strand based on the DNA template. This process is essential for gene expression and protein synthesis in cells. Replication (option A) refers to the process of making copies of DNA, not RNA. Translation (option C) is the process of synthesizing proteins from mRNA, not making copies of RNA from DNA. DNA repair (option D) involves mechanisms that cells use to repair damaged DNA, not the process of making RNA copies from DNA.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The sympathetic nervous system is responsible for the 'fight-or-flight' response, triggering the body's automatic response to a perceived threat or danger. This system initiates physiological changes like increased heart rate, dilated pupils, and the release of adrenaline, preparing the body to confront or escape the threat. The somatic nervous system (Choice A) controls voluntary movements, the parasympathetic nervous system (Choice B) is responsible for the 'rest and digest' response to promote relaxation and digestion, and the enteric nervous system (Choice D) regulates the gastrointestinal system. Therefore, they are not associated with the 'fight-or-flight' response.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is the Mitral valve. The mitral valve is located between the left atrium and the left ventricle of the heart. Its function is to prevent the backflow of blood from the left ventricle into the left atrium during ventricular contraction. Choice A, the Tricuspid valve, is incorrect as it is located between the right atrium and right ventricle. Choice C, the Aortic valve, and Choice D, the Pulmonic valve, are also incorrect as they are involved in the circulation of blood leaving the heart rather than preventing backflow within the atria and ventricles.

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.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Volume is the measure of the total amount of space occupied by an object. Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object, density is the mass per unit volume, and weight is the force of gravity acting on an object. When determining the space occupied by an object, volume is the appropriate measurement to consider. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not directly indicate the total amount of space occupied by an object. Mass, density, and weight are relevant in different contexts and measurements compared to volume.
