TEAS 7 practice test science Questions
Question 1 of 5
How does an increase in surface area affect the force of friction between two surfaces?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: An increase in surface area typically increases the force of friction between two surfaces. This is because with a larger surface area in contact, there are more points of contact between the surfaces, leading to a greater frictional force resisting motion. As a result, the correct answer is that an increase in surface area increases the force of friction between two surfaces. Choice B is incorrect because a greater surface area increases the frictional force. Choice C is incorrect because an increase in surface area results in more contact points and greater friction. Choice D is incorrect as the relationship between surface area and friction is predictable - an increase in surface area generally leads to an increase in frictional force.
Question 2 of 5
Which of the following is a risk factor for developing kidney stones?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Having a family history of kidney stones is a risk factor for developing kidney stones. Genetic predisposition can increase the likelihood of developing kidney stones due to inherited traits that affect the body's ability to process and excrete certain substances. Consuming a diet rich in fruits and vegetables (option A) and maintaining adequate hydration with water (option B) are actually recommended strategies to help prevent kidney stones by promoting overall kidney health. Regularly engaging in moderate exercise (option D) can also be beneficial for kidney health by promoting circulation and overall well-being. Therefore, options A, B, and D are not risk factors but rather beneficial for kidney health.
Question 3 of 5
What is the name of the condition characterized by inflammation of the small intestine?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: A) Appendicitis is inflammation of the appendix, not the small intestine. B) Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder triggered by gluten consumption that damages the small intestine, but it is not characterized by inflammation alone. C) Gastritis is inflammation of the stomach lining, not the small intestine. D) Crohn's disease is a chronic inflammatory condition that can affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract, but it commonly involves the small intestine. Symptoms of Crohn's disease include abdominal pain, diarrhea, weight loss, and fatigue.
Question 4 of 5
Which part of the brain plays a crucial role in the regulation of balance, coordination, and posture?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The cerebellum is the part of the brain that plays a crucial role in the regulation of balance, coordination, and posture. It receives information from the sensory systems, the spinal cord, and other parts of the brain to coordinate voluntary movements. While the thalamus is involved in relaying sensory and motor signals to the cerebral cortex, the cerebrum is responsible for higher brain functions such as thought and action. The hypothalamus is involved in various bodily functions including the regulation of body temperature, hunger, and thirst, but it is not primarily responsible for balance, coordination, and posture. Therefore, the correct answer is the cerebellum.
Question 5 of 5
Which type of orbital can hold a maximum of 10 electrons?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is the f orbital. Each f orbital can hold up to 2 electrons. Since there are 5 f orbitals, the total maximum number of electrons that can be accommodated in f orbitals is 10 (2 electrons per orbital x 5 orbitals = 10 electrons). Therefore, the f orbital can hold a maximum of 10 electrons. Choice A, s orbital, is incorrect because it can hold a maximum of 2 electrons. Choice B, p orbital, is incorrect because it can hold a maximum of 6 electrons (3 orbitals x 2 electrons per orbital = 6 electrons). Choice C, d orbital, is incorrect as it can hold a maximum of 10 electrons (5 orbitals x 2 electrons per orbital = 10 electrons), but the question asks for the type of orbital that can hold a maximum of 10 electrons, not the total number of electrons in d orbitals.
