Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale after 5 retries.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: It runs 3' to 5'. The antisense strand of DNA runs in the opposite direction to the sense strand. This is essential for complementary base pairing during transcription. The 3' to 5' direction allows RNA polymerase to synthesize RNA in the 5' to 3' direction, following the template of the antisense strand. Therefore, choice B is correct. Choices A and C are incorrect because the directionality of the antisense strand is opposite to 5' to 3' and it is used in transcription, not replication. Choice D is incorrect as DNA is stored in the cell nucleus in a double helix structure, not in a specific direction.

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: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Total lung capacity. Total lung capacity is the maximum volume of air the lungs can hold after a full forced inhalation. It includes all the volumes within the lungs, such as tidal volume, inspiratory reserve volume, expiratory reserve volume, and residual volume. It is the sum of vital capacity and residual volume. Inspiratory capacity (A) is the maximum volume of air that can be inhaled after a normal exhalation. Tidal volume (B) is the volume of air inspired or expired during normal breathing. Vital capacity (D) is the maximum volume of air that can be exhaled after a maximum inhalation, not the total volume the lungs can hold.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The P wave on an ECG represents atrial depolarization. During the cardiac cycle, the electrical impulse originates in the sinoatrial (SA) node, causing the atria to contract. This depolarization of the atria is reflected as the P wave on the ECG. This occurs before the ventricles depolarize (choice B), repolarize (choice D), or before the atria repolarize (choice C). Therefore, the correct answer is A because the P wave specifically represents atrial depolarization in the cardiac cycle.
