Question 1 of 5
What is a common cause of a tsunami?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Earthquakes are a common cause of tsunamis. When an earthquake occurs under the ocean, it can displace a large volume of water, triggering a series of powerful waves known as a tsunami. Sunspot activity, lightning strikes, and flooding do not directly cause tsunamis. Therefore, the correct answer is earthquakes, as they are the primary geological event that leads to the formation of tsunamis.

In experimental design, which group can be measured against the experimental group as a standard of comparison?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The control group is a critical component in experimental design as it serves as a reference point for comparison with the experimental group. The control group does not receive the experimental treatment but is subjected to all other conditions. By comparing the outcomes of the experimental group with those of the control group, researchers can evaluate the impact and efficacy of the experimental treatment.

Question 5 of 5
Which of the following organs is covered by the pleura, a connective tissue sheath?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The pleura is a protective membrane that covers the lungs. It consists of two layers: the visceral pleura (inner layer) and the parietal pleura (outer layer). The pleural space between these layers contains a small amount of fluid that helps reduce friction during breathing movements. The spleen, heart, and liver are not covered by the pleura. Therefore, the correct answer is the lungs.
