2026 ATI TEAS 7 SCIENCE PRACTICE
TEST: High- Yield Questions & Study Guide
with Full Answers Explanations
The first four steps on the scientific method are as follows:
I. Identify the problem.
II. Ask questions.
III. Develop a hypothesis.
Iv. Collect data and experiment on that data.
Which of the following is the fifth step in the scientific method?
A. Observe the data.
B. Analyze the results.
C. Measure the data.
D. Develop a conclusion.
B. Analyze the results.
- There are six steps in the scientific process. The results of step four must
be analyzed before reaching the final step. "Develop a conclusion."
Which of the following is FALSE regarding the use of qualitative and
quantitative data in scientific research?
A. Quantitative data is collected through numerical measurements.
B. Quantitative data is more accurate than qualitative data.
,
C. Qualitative data is focused on perspectives and behavior.
D. Qualitative data is collected through observation and interviews.
B. Quantitative data is more accurate than qualitative data.
The two types of measurement important in science are qualitative (When
a numerical result is used) and qualitative (when descriptions or qualities
are reported).
- Qualitative data is collected through observation and interviews, and
focuses on the informant's behavior and perspectives.
THE NEXT QUESTION REFERS TO THE FOLLOWING GRAPHICS:
The chart above shows the average snowfall in inches for a two on
Michigan's Upper Peninsula, during the months November through April.
Which of the following can be concluded based on the information that is
provided in the chart?
A. April is not a good month to go skiing in the Upper Peninsula.
B. Snowfall blocks the sunshine reduces the number of sunny days.
C. The fewest sunny days occur in the months with the heaviest snowfall.
,
D. There is no connection between the amount of snowfall and the
number of sunny days.
C.
The chart shows two specific changes: snowfall levels from November to
April and sunny days from November to April.
Which of the following statements correctly describes the function of the
corresponding physiologic structure?
A. The trachea connects the throat and the stomach, encouraging food to
follow this path through contractions.
B. The esophagus is the cylindrical portion of the respiratory tract that
joins the larynx with the lungs.
C. the diaphragm is a muscle that controls the height of the thoracic
cavity, decreasing the height on contraction, and increasing the height on
relaxation causing expiration.
D. The epiglottis covers the trachea during swallowing, preventing food
from entering the airway.
D. The epiglottis covers the trachea during swelling, thus preventing food
from entering the airway.
- The trachea (windpipe) is cylindrical portion of the reparatory tract that
joins the larynx with the lungs.
,
- The esophagus connects the throat and the stomach. When a person
swallows, the esophagus contracts to force the food down into the
stomach. The esophagus secretes mucus for lubrication.
- The diaphragm is a muscle that controls the height of the thoracic
cavity, increasing the height on contraction (inspiration), and decreasing
the height on relaxation (expiration).
Which of the following is an example of the location and function of
cartilage int he body?
A. The dense connective tissue that comprises the better part of the
structural skeleton.
B. The supportive pads that provide cushion at joints, such as between the
vertebrae of the spinal cord.
C. The connective structure made of fibrous collagen that connects
muscles and bones, such as the connection of the patella to the quadricep.
D. The layer beneath the skin and on the outside of internal organs that
provides cushioning and protection.
B. The pads that support the vertebrae are made up of cartilage.
- Cartilage, a strong form of connective tissue, cushions ad supports the
joints. Cartilage also makes up the larynx and the outer ear.
- Bone is a form of connective tissue that comprises the better part of the
skeleton. It includes both organic and inorganic substances.
