Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Helicase is the enzyme responsible for unwinding the double-stranded DNA during replication by breaking the hydrogen bonds between the base pairs. This process creates the replication fork where DNA polymerase can then synthesize new DNA strands. Ligase functions to join Okazaki fragments on the lagging strand, not unwind DNA. Nuclease is involved in DNA repair by removing damaged DNA segments. Polymerase is responsible for synthesizing new DNA strands based on the existing template strands, not for unwinding the DNA.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B. Osmosis is the process where water moves across a selectively permeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration. Choice A is incorrect because osmosis does not involve movement against the concentration gradient. Choice C is incorrect because osmosis primarily involves the movement of water, not water and solutes together. Choice D is incorrect as osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water molecules, not large molecules, through a membrane.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The liver's main function in the digestive system is to produce bile. Bile helps in the digestion and absorption of fats by emulsifying them, breaking down large fat globules into smaller droplets that can be acted upon by digestive enzymes. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because the liver's primary role in the digestive system is not to absorb water, store glucose, or regulate metabolism. While the liver does have roles in metabolism and glucose regulation, its key function in digestion is bile production.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: All of these statements are true regarding the ventricles of the heart. The left ventricle does indeed pump oxygenated blood into the aorta, while the right ventricle pumps deoxygenated blood into the pulmonary trunk. Ventricles are indeed the discharging chambers of the heart, responsible for pumping blood out into the circulatory system. Therefore, as all the statements are accurate, the correct answer is 'All of the above.' Choices A, B, and C are all correct statements about the ventricles, making them incorrect answers in isolation.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Skeletal muscle is the correct answer as it is responsible for moving the skeleton. Skeletal muscles are under voluntary control, meaning they can be consciously controlled by the individual. Cardiac muscle (Choice A) is found in the heart and is responsible for pumping blood, not moving the skeleton. Smooth muscle (Choice C) is found in internal organs and is responsible for involuntary movements like digestion. Voluntary muscle (Choice D) is not a specific type of muscle; it refers to muscles that can be consciously controlled, which includes skeletal muscles.
