GENERAL SCIENCE (Q1–Q8)
Q1. A researcher places identical plants in two controlled environments. Plant
Group A receives sunlight and water, while Plant Group B receives water but
no sunlight. After several weeks, Group B exhibits stunted growth. Which
biological process is most directly affected by the absence of sunlight?
A. Cellular respiration
B. Photosynthesis
C. Digestion
D. Reproduction
Correct Answer: 🔴 B. Photosynthesis
Explanation: 🔹 Photosynthesis requires sunlight to convert carbon dioxide
and water into glucose and oxygen. Without sunlight, plants cannot
efficiently produce food, leading to reduced growth. Cellular respiration
still occurs in plants, while digestion and reproduction are not the primary
processes affected in this scenario.
Q2. Which organ system is primarily responsible for transporting oxygen,
nutrients, and hormones throughout the body?
A. Digestive system
B. Skeletal system
,C. Circulatory system
D. Nervous system
Correct Answer: 🔴 C. Circulatory system
Explanation: 🔹 The circulatory system uses the heart, blood, and blood
vessels to transport essential substances throughout the body. The digestive
system processes food, the skeletal system provides structure, and the
nervous system transmits signals.
Q3. A sample of matter has a definite volume but takes the shape of its
container. What state of matter is it?
A. Solid
B. Liquid
C. Gas
D. Plasma
Correct Answer: 🔴 B. Liquid
Explanation: 🔹 Liquids maintain a definite volume while adapting to the
shape of their container. Solids maintain both shape and volume, while
gases and plasmas have neither fixed shape nor volume.
Q4. Which layer of Earth lies directly beneath the crust?
A. Inner core
B. Outer core
C. Mantle
D. Lithosphere
Correct Answer: 🔴 C. Mantle
, Explanation: 🔹 The mantle lies beneath Earth's crust and consists of hot,
semi-solid rock. The outer and inner cores are located deeper within the
planet.
Q5. Which blood vessels carry blood away from the heart?
A. Veins
B. Capillaries
C. Arteries
D. Venules
Correct Answer: 🔴 C. Arteries
Explanation: 🔹 Arteries transport blood away from the heart. Veins return
blood to the heart, while capillaries facilitate exchange of nutrients and
gases between blood and tissues.
Q6. Which planet is known for having prominent rings?
A. Mars
B. Venus
C. Saturn
D. Mercury
Correct Answer: 🔴 C. Saturn
Explanation: 🔹 Saturn is famous for its extensive ring system composed of
ice and rock particles. While other gas giants have rings, Saturn's are the
most visible and extensive.
