the correct option in the first go (well done!), we suggest that you
select the other options as well to understand why they are also correct
or incorrect.

 5. Which of the underlined words are used CORRECTLY in the passage below?

The most dramatic natural factor effecting the outcome of a chemical reaction is
temperature. Several investigators have found that warm temperatures often
accelerate chemical reactions, leading to high yields. Even in the simplest case,
the rate undergoes an exponential increase with temperature. In 1889, Arrhenius
derived an equation for the temperature dependence of reaction rates for simple
reactions, and it is being used even today in chemical kinetics. The persistence
of a catalyst may also be a major promoter of the reaction progress.

a. effecting

b. warm

c. derived

d. persistence

action, antioxidant potential, and hypoglycemic properties.

b. Glibenclamide is an antidiabetic drug that catalyzes insulin from pancreatic cells by inhibiting
ATP-sensitive K+ channel activity.

 10. [COMPREHENSION] Read the passage and identify the CORRECT/LOGICAL
statements from the alternatives below.

This study gets wind direction/speed by a multicopter hovering at a specific place. In the case
of a multicopter, flight occurrence is due to the power of its rotors, and different from
measurements using a fixed wing plane and Pitot tube, sensor that are attached outside,
large errors occur due to the turbulence. This drawback is made up by onboard sensors such
as Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), Global Positioning System (GPS), etc., and the wind
direction and strength are estimated.

a. A fixed-wing plane and Pitot tube use external sensors to take measurements.

b. Flight may occur in a multicopter owing to rotor power.

c. This study uses a multicopter capable of hovering in a specific place in order to estimate the
wind direction/speed.

d. Onboard sensors such as Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), Global Positioning System
(GPS), etc., are disadvantageous.
