Question 1 of 5

Which of the following are examples of positive correlation?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. Positive correlation indicates that as one variable increases, the other variable also increases. In this case, when plotting a comparison of rainfall to plant length, if the line trends to the upper right, it shows a positive correlation where as rainfall increases, plant length also increases. Choices A, B, and C show either no correlation or negative correlation, as they describe scenarios where the variables move in different or opposite directions.

Question 2 of 5

Which of the following is not a biological macromolecule?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Glucose is a monosaccharide, which is a simple sugar and not a macromolecule. Glycoproteins, DNA, and phospholipids are all examples of biological macromolecules. Glycoproteins are proteins covalently bonded to carbohydrates, DNA is a nucleic acid, and phospholipids are lipids that contain a phosphate group.

Question 3 of 5

A researcher wants to conduct qualitative research. Which method should they use?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Qualitative research focuses on gathering non-numerical, descriptive data to explore experiences, behaviors, or perspectives. Collecting patient narratives aligns with qualitative research as it involves capturing detailed accounts of individuals' experiences or viewpoints. Choices B, C, and D involve more quantitative approaches by focusing on measurable quantities, observations, or structured note-taking, which are not characteristic of qualitative research methods.

Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.

Question 5 of 5

Which macromolecule will always contain nitrogen?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Protein. Proteins always contain nitrogen, as it is a key element in amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. Fatty acids (choice A), lipids (choice C), and carbohydrates (choice D) do not always contain nitrogen. Fatty acids consist of long chains of hydrocarbons, lipids are mainly composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, and carbohydrates are composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen as well, but not nitrogen.
