CST 245 COMPREHENSIVE STUDY GUIDE
2026 FULL QUESTIONS AND SOLUTIONS
GRADED A+
◍ Glucose.
Answer: A simple sugar and product of photosynthesis.
◍ Phoneme identity.
Answer: in this activity, children learn to recognize the same sounds in
different words. (Teacher: What sound is the same in fix, fall, andfun?
Children: The first sound, /f/, is the same.)
◍ atlas.
Answer: book of maps and charts. -The maps show geographic features, the
topography of an area's landscape and political boundaries. They also show
climatic, social, religious and economic statistics of an area.
◍ Economic Stimulus.
Answer: a policy or action designed to promote business activity and
stimulate economic growth
◍ How do trees use photosynthesis to process sunlight?.
Answer: The plants take energy from the sunlight and spreads hydrogen into
its parts,helping to create sugar, water, and oxygen.
◍ Factors that Influence Weather.
Answer: The water cycle - sun warms the surface of Earth, water rises in
form of vapor (evaporation) Vapor provides moisture that forms clouds;
eventually returns to Earth in form of precipitation.Air masses - When air
hovers for a while over a surface area with uniform humidity and
temperature, it takes on the characteristics of the area below. These massive
volumes of air often cover thousands of miles and reach to the stratosphere.
, Overtime, mid-latitude cyclonic storms and global wind patterns move them
to locations far from their source regions.What happens when 2 air masses
meet? The cold air pushes the hot air upwards, when going up the
temperature drops and the air can't hold as much water when it is warm, so
the cold water molecules condense and form clouds.Jet stream - A jet stream
is the name given to the area of air above where two air masses of different
temperature converge e.g. a cold front meeting a warm front. The greater the
temperature difference between the air masses, the greater the air pressure
difference, and the faster the wind blows in the jet stream. This river of air
has wind speeds which often exceed 100 mph, and sometimes over 200
mph. Jet streams more commonly form in the winter, when there is a greater
difference between the temperature of the cold continental air masses and
warm oceanic air masses.This meandering current of high-speed wind, a jet
stream is usually found around five to ten miles above Earth's surface.It
generally flows west to east, often in a non-continuous wavy fashion, with
cold, Equator-ward dips and warm, Pole-ward bulges.Weather fronts - The
transition zone between two air masses of different humidity and
temperature is called a front. Along a cold front, cold air displaces warm air;
along a warm front, warm air displaces cold air. When neither air mass
displaces the other, a stationary front develops. Towering clouds and intense
storms may form along cold fronts, while widespread clouds and rain, snow,
sleet, or drizzle may accompany warm fronts.
◍ basic concepts in physical education.
Answer: motor development, body awareness, social adjustments and
interaction
◍ Metamemory skills.
Answer: The knowledge and control of one's memory.
◍ Pantomime.
Answer: A pantomime (often shortened to Panto) is a musical-comedy
family-orientated theatrical production traditionally performed in United
Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Zimbabwe, Jamaica, South
, Africa, India, Ireland, Gibraltar, and Malta, at Christmas-time. The panto
often features slapstick or messy comedy routines, children dancing, recent
songs, spectacular sets and colorful costumes, and is often themed around a
fairy story or nursery rhymes.Popular pantos include Cinderella, Aladdin,
Jack and the Beanstalk, Mother Goose, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White and
the Seven Dwarfs, Dick Whittington and His Cat, Puss in Boots etc.
◍ Epicenter.
Answer: The part on the surface of the Earth immediately above the focus of
an earthquake.
◍ Outcome assessment.
Answer: Student achievement at the end of school year or time period.
Evaluation. State-mandated achievement test that students of certain grade
levels must take in several areas at the end of the year.
◍ What makes up the Constitution?.
Answer: 7 articles and 27 amendments.
◍ properties of a kite.
Answer: 1. all disjoint pairs of consecutive sides are congruent by
definition2. the diagonals are perpendicular3. one diagonal (the main
diagonal) is the perpendicular bisector of the other diagonal (the cross
diagonal)4. the main diagonal bisects a pair of opposite angles5. the
opposite angles at the endpoints of the cross diagonal are congruent
◍ Role of Media in politics.
Answer: to inform, to inspire, and to activate the public
◍ Amphora.
Answer: An egg-shaped Grecian urn
◍ civics.
Answer: The study of the rights and duties of citizens
◍ Receptive Language.
Answer: the ability to understand language (also known as comprehension)
, includes the ability to understand speech, written text, and or the elements of
sign language.
◍ Information Revolution.
Answer: Development in technology (such as computers, digital
communication, microchips) in the second half of the 20th century that has
led to dramatic reduction in the cost of obtaining, processing, storing, and
transmitting information in all forms (texts, graphs, audio, video).
◍ Indus Valley Civilization.
Answer: Began around 2500 B.C., featured well planned cities with brick
buildings and sophisticated sanitation systems, fell around 1500 B.C.
◍ Socialism.
Answer: A system in which society, usually in the form of the government,
owns and controls the means of production.
◍ Inferential Comprehension Skills.
Answer: skills that assist students to make connections to new info in texts
by drawing conclusions, determining relationships, conceptualizing implied
ideas. Reading in between the lines. Making inferences requires several
reading behaviors: recognizing a pronoun's antecedent, learning unknown
words from context clues, identifying bias, etc...
◍ Constitution of New York.
Answer: Said that New Yorkers had rights. Any free person accused of a
crime had the right to trial by jury. And all New Yorkers had the right to
follow their own religion.
◍ Diagnostic Assessment.
Answer: Are administered to individual students who may need additional
support. In some cases, diagnostic assessments are used because screening
has suggested the presence of a disability (in which case the diagnostic
assessment may function as a prereferral assessment) In other cases, it is
used because the student has already been referred for special ed. and more
info is needed. They provide more in-depth understanding of skills and
