Mock 3

In one line: Final twenty facts before test day — muscle physiology, genetics ratios, redox/indicators, and the EM spectrum.

Biology & Chemistry

1ATP is the immediate energy source for muscle contraction.

2B-lymphocytes differentiate into antibody-producing plasma cells.

3Primary consumers are always herbivores.

4Acetylcholine is released at the neuromuscular junction.

5Ball-and-socket joints (e.g. shoulder) allow the widest range of motion.

6A mole = 6.022 × 10^23 particles (Avogadro's number).

7NaOH turns red litmus paper blue (strong base).

8Sodium metal forms at the cathode in molten NaCl electrolysis.

9Container colour does NOT affect reaction rate.

10CH3-CH2-OH is ethanol.

11Transformers work by electromagnetic induction.

12Zero work is done moving charge between equal-potential points.

13EM spectrum (low→high freq): radio, infrared, visible, UV, X-ray, gamma.

14Photoelectric effect: intensity → number of electrons, not their energy.

15Pendulum period T = 2π√(L/g) — depends on length & gravity only.

16"Neither...nor" agrees with the nearer subject.

17Careless is the antonym of "meticulous".

18Aa × Aa monohybrid cross gives a 3:1 phenotypic ratio.

19Proximal convoluted tubule reabsorbs most filtered water/salts.

20Phenolphthalein turns pink in basic solutions.
