What may the jointed appendages of arthropods be used for?
[ "jumping", "digging", "crawling", "walking" ]
D
The jointed appendages of arthropods may be used as legs for walking. Being jointed makes them more flexible. Try walking or climbing stairs without bending your knees, and you’ll see why joints are helpful. In most arthropods, the appendages on the head have been modified for other functions. Figure below shows some o...

Of the science books in a certain supply room, 50 are on botany, 55 are on zoology, 90 are on physics, 50 are on geology, and 110 are on chemistry. If science books are removed randomly from the supply room, how many must be removed to ensure that 80 of the books removed are on the same area science?
[ "166", "314", "159", "81" ]
B
The worst case scenario is to remove all the books on botany, zoology, and geology. Also we can remove 79 books each from physics and chemistry. The total is 50 + 55 + 50 + 79 + 79 = 313. The next book removed must either be physics or chemistry, ensuring 80 books in that subject. The answer is E.
