    Which of the following two parts are part of the autonomic nervous system? - ProProfs

    Which of the following two parts are part of the autonomic nervous system?

    • Organic and energetic

    • Generic and spastic

    • Sympathetic and parasympathetic

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Sympathetic and parasympathetic
    Explanation
    The autonomic nervous system is responsible for regulating involuntary bodily functions. It is divided into two parts: the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. The sympathetic nervous system prepares the body for "fight or flight" responses, while the parasympathetic nervous system promotes "rest and digest" activities. Therefore, the correct answer is "Sympathetic and parasympathetic."

    Which of the subsequent conditions can anxiety lead to? - ProProfs

    Which of the subsequent conditions can anxiety lead to?

    • High blood pressure

    • Loss of appetite

    • Constipation or Diarrhea

    • All the above

    Correct Answer
    A. All the above
    Explanation
    Anxiety can lead to high blood pressure, loss of appetite, and constipation or diarrhea. When a person is anxious, their body releases stress hormones that can increase blood pressure. Anxiety can also affect the digestive system, leading to a loss of appetite and causing constipation or diarrhea. Therefore, all of the given conditions can be caused by anxiety.

    Duodenum is responsible for which of the following? - ProProfs

    Duodenum is responsible for which of the following?

    • Cleans the blood

    • Creates bile

    • Absorbs oxygen

    • Breaking down food in the small intestines

    Correct Answer
    A. Breaking down food in the small intestines
    Explanation
    The duodenum is responsible for breaking down food in the small intestines. It is the first part of the small intestine and receives partially digested food from the stomach. It releases digestive enzymes and receives bile from the liver and gallbladder, which aid in the breakdown of food. The duodenum plays a crucial role in the digestion and absorption of nutrients from the food we consume.

    Which of the following joints are the hamstrings responsible for flexing? - ProProfs

    Which of the following joints are the hamstrings responsible for flexing?

    • Hip

    • Elbow

    • Knee

    • Shoulder

    Correct Answer
    A. Knee
    Explanation
    The hamstrings are responsible for flexing the knee joint. They are a group of muscles located at the back of the thigh, consisting of the biceps femoris, semitendinosus, and semimembranosus. These muscles work together to bend the knee and bring the lower leg towards the buttocks. The hamstrings also play a role in extending the hip joint, but their primary function is knee flexion. Therefore, the correct answer is knee.

    Which of these families contains elements that are nonreactive? - ProProfs

    Which of these families contains elements that are nonreactive?

    • Halogens

    • Noble gases

    • Alkaline earth metals

    • Alkali metals

    Correct Answer
    A. Noble gases
    Explanation
    Noble gases contain elements that are nonreactive because they have a full outer electron shell, making them stable. This stability prevents them from easily gaining or losing electrons, which is necessary for chemical reactions to occur. As a result, noble gases are generally unreactive and do not readily form compounds with other elements.

    Which of the following is the oxidation state of chlorine found in KClO4 (potassium perchlorate)? - ProProfs

    Which of the following is the oxidation state of chlorine found in KClO4 (potassium perchlorate)?

    • 3

    • 7

    • -5

    • -7

    Correct Answer
    A. 7
    Explanation
    In KClO4 (potassium perchlorate), the oxidation state of chlorine is +7. This is because the oxidation state of potassium is +1 and the oxidation state of oxygen is -2. Since the overall charge of the compound is 0, the oxidation state of chlorine can be calculated by solving the equation: (+1) + (x) + 4(-2) = 0, where x represents the oxidation state of chlorine. Solving this equation gives us x = +7, indicating that chlorine has an oxidation state of +7 in KClO4.

    Which of the following muscle fibers are vertically aligned in the body? - ProProfs

    Which of the following muscle fibers are vertically aligned in the body?

    • Transverse

    • Superior

    • Diagonal

    • Rectus

    Correct Answer
    A. Rectus
    Explanation
    Rectus muscle fibers are vertically aligned in the body. The term "rectus" means straight or upright, indicating that these muscle fibers run in a straight line vertically. This alignment allows the rectus muscles to perform actions such as flexion and extension in a linear manner.

    Some metal react explosively when they are droped inside water. Which of the following metals react that way? - ProProfs

    Some metal react explosively when they are droped inside water. Which of the following metals react that way?

    • Sodium

    • Manganese

    • Silver

    • Chromium

    Correct Answer
    A. Sodium
    Explanation
    Sodium reacts explosively when dropped into water because it is a highly reactive metal. When sodium comes into contact with water, it undergoes a vigorous exothermic reaction, producing hydrogen gas and sodium hydroxide. This reaction is so intense that it can cause the sodium to explode or catch fire.

    In which type of contraction does the shortening of a muscle occur? - ProProfs

    In which type of contraction does the shortening of a muscle occur?

    • Isometric

    • Concentric

    • Eccentric

    • Egocentric

    Correct Answer
    A. Concentric
    Explanation
    Concentric contraction refers to the type of muscle contraction where the muscle shortens as it generates force. This occurs when the muscle is actively contracting and overcoming resistance, such as when lifting a weight during a bicep curl. In this type of contraction, the muscle fibers are pulling on the tendons, causing the muscle to shorten and the joint to move.
