    Julius drove 193.5 kilometers did he travels in one hour? How long it will take him to travel 150.5 kilometers more?

    • A.

      54 km & 4 hrs.

    • B.

      43 km & 3.5 hrs.

    • C.

      42 km & 4 hrs.

    • D.

      40 km & 7.3 hrs.

    Correct Answer
    B. 43 km & 3.5 hrs.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is 43 km & 3.5 hrs. This is because the question asks how long it will take Julius to travel an additional 150.5 kilometers. Since he already drove 193.5 kilometers in one hour, we can calculate his speed as 193.5 km/h. To find the time it will take him to travel the additional distance, we divide 150.5 kilometers by his speed of 193.5 km/h, which gives us approximately 0.777 hours or 46.6 minutes. Rounded to the nearest half-hour, this is 0.5 hours or 30 minutes, which is equivalent to 3.5 hours. Therefore, it will take Julius 3.5 hours to travel the additional 150.5 kilometers.

    Correct Answer
    D. Movement of sand and shingles along the coast
    Explanation
    Long shore drift refers to the movement of sand and shingles along the coast. This process occurs when waves approach the shore at an angle, causing the sediment to be carried along the coastline. As the waves break, they push the sand and shingles up the beach at an angle, and then gravity pulls them back down the beach in a straight line. This continuous movement of sediment along the coast is known as long shore drift. It plays a crucial role in shaping coastal landscapes and can lead to the formation of features such as sandbars and spits.

    If Pedro already spent P48,000 on 3 sides of his fence, and the remaining fence is not specified, it can be assumed that the remaining fence refers to the fourth side. Therefore, the cost of the remaining fence would be the same as the cost of one side of the fence, which is P16,000.

    Excessive release of detergents in natural streams pose danger since this can cause eutrophication. How can such a condition occur?

    • A.

      Due to chlorinated hydrocarbons

    • B.

      Due to chloride ions

    • C.

      Presence of chlorinated hydrocarbons

    • D.

      Due to tripolyphosphate ions

    Correct Answer
    D. Due to tripolypHospHate ions
    Explanation
    Tripolyphosphate ions, which are commonly found in detergents, can contribute to eutrophication when released in excessive amounts into natural streams. Eutrophication occurs when there is an excessive amount of nutrients, such as phosphates, in the water. These nutrients promote the growth of algae and other aquatic plants, leading to an imbalance in the ecosystem. The excessive growth of algae can deplete oxygen levels in the water, causing harm to fish and other organisms that depend on oxygen for survival. Therefore, the presence of tripolyphosphate ions in detergents can contribute to eutrophication and pose a danger to natural streams.

    Two items of similar and weights are dropped simultaneously from a ten-storey building. Which of the following statements is correct about the falling rate of the object?

    • A.

      The weight of the object has no effect on the falling rate

    • B.

      The shape of the objects has a minor effect on the falling rate

    • C.

      The distance of the fall has an effect on the falling rate

    • D.

      The resistance of the air has no effect on the failing rate

    Correct Answer
    A. The weight of the object has no effect on the falling rate
    Explanation
    The weight of an object does not affect its falling rate because in the absence of air resistance, all objects fall at the same rate regardless of their weight. This is known as the principle of equivalence and was famously demonstrated by Galileo in the 16th century. According to this principle, the acceleration due to gravity is the same for all objects, regardless of their mass. Therefore, the weight of the object does not play a role in determining its falling rate.

    A couple had heterozygous genes for tallness. What will be the genotypic ratio of their F1?

    • A.

      1 homozygous tall, 2 heterozygous tall, 1 short

    • B.

      4 heterozygous tall

    • C.

      4 heterozygous short

    • D.

      2 homozygous tall, 2 heterozygous short

    Correct Answer
    A. 1 homozygous tall, 2 heterozygous tall, 1 short
    Explanation
    The couple has heterozygous genes for tallness, which means they each have one dominant allele (T) and one recessive allele (t) for height. When they reproduce, there are three possible genotypes for their offspring: homozygous tall (TT), heterozygous tall (Tt), and homozygous short (tt). The genotypic ratio of their F1 generation is 1 homozygous tall, 2 heterozygous tall, and 1 short. This is because there is a 25% chance of getting each genotype.

      The jelly consumed the heat

      The leaves were made hot by the jelly

    • D.

      The leaves were shiny because of jelly

    Correct Answer
    A. The stoma in the leaves were covered
    Explanation
    The correct answer is that the stoma in the leaves were covered. Stoma are tiny openings on the surface of leaves that allow for the exchange of gases, such as oxygen and carbon dioxide, with the surrounding environment. When the stoma are covered, it prevents this gas exchange from occurring effectively, leading to the wilting of the orchid.
