Practice TEAS Science Test Questions
Question 1 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.

Which region of the small intestine is the primary site of absorption?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 3 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.
Question 4 of 5
What is the function of the Vas Deferens?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The vas deferens is a duct that connects each testis to the urethra, allowing the transport of sperm. Choice A is incorrect because the vas deferens does not produce fluid to increase sperm mobility. Choice B is incorrect as the vas deferens is not a site for egg maturation. Choice C is incorrect as the vas deferens does not help control urine flow, its primary role is in the transport of sperm.
Question 5 of 5
Which of the following indicates the body's draining of clear fluid throughout the body to protect it from infection?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C, the Lymphatic System. The lymphatic system is responsible for draining clear fluid, known as lymph, throughout the body to protect it from infection. The other choices are incorrect because the pulmonary loop specifically refers to circulation between the heart and lungs, the systemic loop refers to circulation between the heart and the rest of the body, and the immune system is responsible for fighting infections and diseases rather than draining clear fluid.
