Which process in plants involves losing water vapour through stomata helping in cooling and nutrient transport?

  • A Transpiration
  • B Photosynthesis
  • C Respiration
  • D Osmosis
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option A — Transpiration
Explanation: Transpiration is the loss of water vapour from plant leaves through stomata which creates a suction force that helps pull water and nutrients up from the roots.

Which part of the plant transports water and minerals from roots to leaves and food from leaves downward?

  • A Root only
  • B Leaf only
  • C Stem through xylem and phloem
  • D Flower only
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option C — Stem through xylem and phloem

Which everyday principle explains how blood pressure monitors measure pressure in the arteries?

  • A Pascal's law
  • B Bernoulli's principle
  • C Archimedes' principle
  • D Hooke's law
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option A — Pascal's law

Which everyday item uses a bimetallic strip that bends when heated to control temperature in older thermostats?

  • A Thermostat
  • B Compass
  • C Hygrometer
  • D Barometer
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option A — Thermostat
Explanation: Older thermostats use a bimetallic strip that bends when heated because two bonded metals expand at different rates triggering a circuit to switch heating or cooling on and off.

Which part of the water cycle involves water vapour cooling and turning back into liquid water droplets to form clouds?

  • A Evaporation
  • B Condensation
  • C Precipitation
  • D Transpiration
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option B — Condensation
Explanation: Condensation is the part of the water cycle where water vapour cools as it rises and turns back into tiny liquid droplets forming clouds and fog in the atmosphere.

Which everyday phenomenon explains why a ship made of steel can float despite steel being denser than water?

  • A The ship displaces a volume of water equal to its weight
  • B Steel is lighter than water
  • C Steel reacts with seawater to reduce density
  • D Ships contain compressed air making them float
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option A — The ship displaces a volume of water equal to its weight
Explanation: A steel ship floats because its hollow shape displaces a large volume of water whose weight equals the ship's weight satisfying Archimedes' principle even though steel itself sinks.
