EXAM QUESTIONS
Question 1
The scientific method is:
A) A random method of observing animals
B) A systematic method of gaining knowledge through research
C) A series of unverified assumptions
D) A method for memorizing facts
Correct Answer:
B) A systematic method of gaining knowledge through research
Rationale:
The scientific method uses a structured approach including hypothesis formation,
experimentation, and data analysis to gain reliable knowledge.
Question 2
Proper components of the scientific method include:
A) Guessing, experimenting, ignoring results, drawing a conclusion
B) Identifying a problem, performing an experiment, analyzing data, creating a conclusion
C) Memorizing textbook information and repeating it
D) Collecting data without analysis
Correct Answer:
B) Identifying a problem, performing an experiment, analyzing data, creating a conclusion
Rationale:
Scientific inquiry requires a structured process starting with a question, testing it experimentally,
analyzing results, and drawing conclusions.
Question 3
True or False: In a properly controlled experiment, the negative control group is exposed to all
components that the experimental or treatment group contains.
A) True
B) False
,Page 3 of 97
Correct Answer:
B) False
Rationale:
The negative control group should not be exposed to the experimental treatment; it provides a
baseline for comparison.
Question 4
The kind of research that looks at how or why things work the way they do is:
A) Applied research
B) Basic research
C) Clinical research
D) Field research
Correct Answer:
B) Basic research
Rationale:
Basic research investigates fundamental mechanisms and principles without immediate practical
applications.
Question 5
From the list of animal science specialties discussed in class, the area of most interest is:
A) Reproduction
B) Genetics
C) Nutrition
D) Behavior
Correct Answer:
C) Nutrition
Rationale:
Nutrition focuses on how food and diet impact the growth, health, and productivity of animals.
Question 6
, Page 4 of 97
How much of the population is likely to be employed in production agriculture in developed
countries with strong economies?
A) Less than 5%
B) 10–15%
C) 20–25%
D) Over 50%
Correct Answer:
A) Less than 5%
Rationale:
Highly developed countries rely on mechanization and technology, resulting in very low
percentages of the population working directly in agriculture.
Question 7
Match the type of animal with its approximate worldwide population numbers:
A) Cattle – 1.3–1.5 billion
B) Pigs – 929 million
C) Horses – 58–60 million
D) Chickens – 17 billion
Correct Answer:
Cattle – 1.3–1.5 billion
Pigs – 929 million
Horses – 58–60 million
Chickens – 17 billion
Rationale:
These numbers represent global estimates for livestock populations, reflecting major sources of
animal protein.
Question 8
We would expect ______ to eat the least meat:
A) United States
B) Brazil
C) Ethiopia
D) China
