Question #1
Consider statements about human nutrition: 1. Proteins are made of amino acids. 2. Carbohydrates are made of fatty acids. 3. Fats are made of glycerol and fatty acids. Which are correct?
A. 1 and 2 only
B. 2 and 3 only
C. 1, 2 and 3
D. 1 and 3 only

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Proteins are complex macromolecules composed of long chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds. Fats (triglycerides) are lipids composed of one glycerol molecule esterified to three fatty acid chains. Carbohydrates are composed of simple sugars (monosaccharides) like glucose, not fatty acids. Thus, statements 1 and 3 are correct, while statement 2 is false.

Question #2
The process of removal of metabolic wastes from the body is called:
A. Respiration
B. Excretion
C. Digestion
D. Circulation

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Excretion is the elimination of nitrogenous waste products (urea, uric acid, ammonia) and other metabolic wastes from the body, primarily by the kidneys. Digestion is breakdown of food, circulation is transport, respiration is gas exchange and energy release. Excretion maintains homeostasis of body fluids and prevents toxic accumulation.

Question #3
In the five-kingdom classification, the kingdom Protista includes:
A. Multicellular algae and bryophytes
B. Mushrooms and molds
C. Bacteria and cyanobacteria
D. Unicellular eukaryotes like amoeba and paramecium

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Protista includes unicellular eukaryotes such as protozoans (Amoeba, Paramecium), unicellular algae (Chlamydomonas, diatoms), and slime molds. They may be autotrophic or heterotrophic. Monera contains prokaryotes. Fungi include multicellular (except yeast) saprophytes. Plantae includes multicellular autotrophs. The protist kingdom is a 'catch-all' group for eukaryotes not fitting into fungi, plantae, or animalia.
