Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The primary function of the lymphatic system is to fight infection and remove excess fluid. Lymph nodes contain white blood cells that help fight pathogens. Lymphatic vessels collect excess fluid from tissues and transport it back to the bloodstream, aiding in immune response. Other choices are incorrect because A: Oxygen transport is primarily done by the circulatory system, B: Blood filtration is mainly carried out by the kidneys, and D: Hormone transport is primarily through the circulatory system.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Step 1: Amphiprotic substances can donate and accept protons, making them capable of acting as both acids and bases. Step 2: When amphiprotic substances react, they can donate or accept protons depending on the reaction conditions. Step 3: This ability allows them to exhibit properties of both acids and bases. Step 4: Therefore, Choice C is correct as it accurately describes the nature of amphiprotic substances. Summary: A: Incorrect - Amphiprotic substances can react with both acids and bases, not just acids. B: Incorrect - Amphiprotic substances can react with both acids and bases, not just bases. D: Incorrect - Amphiprotic substances are not inert; they actively participate in chemical reactions by donating and accepting protons.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Lactic acid. When creatine phosphate is used as an energy source for short bursts of muscle activity, it is rapidly broken down into creatine and phosphate. The breakdown of creatine phosphate leads to the production of lactic acid through anaerobic glycolysis. Lactic acid accumulation causes muscle fatigue during intense exercise. A: Glucose is not the breakdown product of creatine phosphate. Glucose is a common fuel for cellular respiration but is not directly produced from creatine phosphate breakdown. C: Carbon dioxide is not the breakdown product of creatine phosphate. Carbon dioxide is produced during the Krebs cycle in aerobic respiration, not from the breakdown of creatine phosphate. D: Creatine is not the breakdown product of creatine phosphate. Creatine is one of the compounds formed when creatine phosphate is broken down, but it is not the final breakdown product.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Ammonia (NH₃). Ammonia is a common base found in household products due to its ability to accept protons and increase the pH of solutions. It is commonly used in cleaning products such as glass cleaners and floor cleaners. A: Sodium chloride (NaCl) is a salt and not a base. C: Vinegar is acidic due to the presence of acetic acid. D: Lemon juice is also acidic due to the presence of citric acid. Therefore, B is the correct answer as it is a common base found in household products, while the other choices are either salts or acidic substances.
