Question #1
Which of the following statements about the nephron is correct?
A. Bowman’s capsule surrounds the loop of Henle.
B. Glomerular filtrate contains large proteins and cells.
C. The proximal tubule reabsorbs most of the glucose and amino acids.
D. The collecting duct actively transports glucose.

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Proximal convoluted tubule reabsorbs glucose, amino acids, and most water. Bowman’s capsule surrounds glomerulus; filtrate lacks proteins and cells; collecting duct concentrates urine.

A. Estrogen
B. Oxytocin

Question #3
Consider statements about evolution: 1. Variation is necessary for evolution. 2. Natural selection acts on phenotype. 3. Evolution occurs in individuals. Which are correct?
A. 1 and 3 only
B. 2 and 3 only
C. 1 and 2 only
D. 1, 2 and 3

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Genetic variation within a population provides the raw material upon which evolutionary forces act; without variation, evolution cannot occur. Natural selection acts directly on the phenotype (observable traits) of an organism, determining its survival and reproductive success. However, evolution is a population-level phenomenon; it involves changes in allele frequencies over generations, not changes occurring within a single individual's lifetime. Thus, statements 1 and 2 are correct.
