TEAS version 7 quizlet science

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Storage and processing of nutrients. The liver plays a crucial role in processing nutrients absorbed from the small intestine, storing glycogen, vitamins, and minerals, and regulating blood sugar levels by releasing or storing glucose as needed. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because the physical breakdown of food primarily occurs in the mouth and stomach, the production of digestive enzymes is mainly carried out by the pancreas and small intestine, and the elimination of waste products is primarily managed by the large intestine and kidneys, not the liver.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct unit of measurement for momentum is Newton-second (N�s). Momentum is calculated as the product of an object's mass and its velocity. The unit of mass is kilograms (kg) and the unit of velocity is meters per second (m/s). Therefore, the unit of momentum is kilogram-meter per second (kg�m/s). By Newton's second law of motion (F = ma), force is measured in Newtons (N), which is equivalent to kg�m/s�. Multiplying the unit of force (N) by the unit of time (s) gives the unit of momentum as Newton-second (N�s). Choice B, Kilogram-meter (kg�m), is incorrect because it represents the unit of work or energy, not momentum. Choice C, Joule (J), is incorrect as it is a unit of energy. Choice D, Meter per second (m/s), is incorrect as it represents velocity alone, not momentum which is a vector quantity involving mass and velocity.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Delta waves are slow brain waves associated with deep sleep stages, specifically stages 3 and 4 of non-REM sleep. These waves have a frequency range of 0.5-4 Hz. Choice B (4-8 Hz) refers to theta waves, which are associated with light sleep and relaxation. Choice C (8-13 Hz) corresponds to alpha waves, present during wakeful relaxation. Choice D (13-30 Hz) represents beta waves, seen in active thinking and concentration. Therefore, the correct answer is A because it aligns with the frequency range characteristic of delta waves during deep sleep.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: - DNA is the macromolecule that serves as the repository of genetic information in all living organisms. It carries the genetic instructions necessary for the growth, development, functioning, and reproduction of organisms. - RNA (option A) is involved in various cellular processes, including protein synthesis, but DNA is the primary molecule responsible for storing genetic information. - Proteins (option C) are essential for various cellular functions but do not serve as the primary repository of genetic information. - Carbohydrates (option D) are important for energy storage and structural support but do not store genetic information.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, a concentrated solution. A concentrated solution contains a higher concentration of solute compared to another solution. This means there is a large amount of solute dissolved in the solvent, making it more concentrated than other solutions. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect. A saturated solution is one in which no more solute can be dissolved at a given temperature, an unsaturated solution can dissolve more solute at the given conditions, and a dilute solution has a low concentration of solute relative to the solvent.
