Technology & Livelihood Education Practice Questions with Answers
- 1easy
Which of the following should be taken into account before preparing the farm lots?
- A.Soil and water supply
- B.Sunlight & air circulation
- C.Accessibility & proximity to market
- D.all of the above
Show answer & explanation
Answer: D. all of the above
All three factors are essential considerations for successful farm preparation. Soil and water supply determine crop viability, sunlight and air circulation affect plant growth and disease prevention, while accessibility and market proximity impact profitability and product distribution. Neglecting any one of these factors can compromise farming operations.
- 2easy
Which of the ff. is a characteristic of good soil?
- A.Should be viable
- B.fresh & mature
- C.damage free & free from seed-borne diseases
- D.all of the above
Show answer & explanation
Answer: D. all of the above
Good soil must possess all three characteristics: viability (ability to germinate and grow), freshness and maturity (proper aging and development), and freedom from damage and seed-borne diseases (to ensure healthy crop production). Since all these qualities are essential for soil quality, the answer is all of the above.
- 3easy
It is the first and most important tillage operation in preparing the land for to make it more moisture-retentive
- A.Cleaning
- B.Plowing
- C.Harrowing
- D.Pulverizing
Show answer & explanation
Answer: B. Plowing
Plowing is the first and most fundamental tillage operation that breaks up compacted soil, incorporates organic matter, and increases soil's water-holding capacity. This initial deep cultivation is essential before subsequent operations like harrowing or pulverizing can be effective.
- 4easy
Is an organic material consisting of very fine rotted animal waste, plant parts and other organic & biodegradable material
- A.Biomass
- B.Compost
- C.Heap
- D.Fertilizer
Show answer & explanation
Answer: B. Compost
Compost is the product of decomposed organic materials including animal waste, plant matter, and other biodegradable substances that have broken down over time. While biomass refers to organic material used for energy, fertilizer is a nutrient-rich substance applied to soil, and heap is just a pile—compost specifically describes the rotted mixture used to enrich soil.
- 5easy
This method of fish-culture is characterized by the use of net enclosures in shallow protected areas of inland waters
- A.Cage method
- B.Fishpen method
- C.Aquarium method
- D.Open-water method
Show answer & explanation
Answer: B. Fishpen method
The fishpen method specifically uses net enclosures constructed in shallow, protected areas of inland waters like lakes, rivers, and lagoons to contain and culture fish. This distinguishes it from cage methods (which use rigid structures) and open-water methods (which lack physical enclosures).
- 6easy
The objective of applying fertilizers to fish ponds
- A.Promote fish growth
- B.Enhance production
- C.neutralize acidity
- D.enhance the color of the water
Show answer & explanation
Answer: B. Enhance production
Fertilizers in fish ponds increase nutrient levels in the water, which promotes the growth of phytoplankton and zooplankton that serve as natural food sources for fish. This enhanced food availability directly leads to increased fish biomass and overall pond productivity, making enhancement of production the primary objective.
- 7easy
This type of plants contains nitrogen in its roots which is converted to nitrates by rhizolia, thus, contributing to soil fertility
- A.Vine crops
- B.Root crops
- C.Legumes
- D.Tubers
Show answer & explanation
Answer: C. Legumes
Legumes are plants that form symbiotic relationships with rhizobia bacteria in their root nodules. These bacteria convert atmospheric nitrogen into nitrates through a process called nitrogen fixation, which enriches the soil and improves its fertility. This is why legumes like beans, peas, and clover are often used in crop rotation.
- 8easy
The system of representing the true shape of any object arranged on a plane in two or more views at right angle to each other
- A.Perspective
- B.Dimension
- C.Orthographic dimension
- D.Oblique drawing
Show answer & explanation
Answer: C. Orthographic dimension
Orthographic projection is the standard technical drawing method that represents a 3D object through multiple 2D views arranged at right angles to each other, showing the true shape and size of each face. This system is fundamental to engineering and architectural drawings because it allows precise communication of an object's dimensions without distortion.
- 9easy
Isometric projection is drawn on tree axes namely the vertical and 2 ______ degree lines
- A.90
- B.60
- C.40
- D.30
Show answer & explanation
Answer: D. 30
In isometric projection, the three axes are drawn at specific angles to create a standardized technical drawing. The vertical axis remains vertical, while the other two axes are drawn at 30 degrees from the horizontal line (on either side), creating equal 120-degree angles between all three axes.
- 10easy
It is part of the electrical circuit which converts electrical energy into another form to do work
- A.Voltage
- B.Load
- C.Current
- D.Ampere
Show answer & explanation
Answer: B. Load
A load is any device in an electrical circuit that converts electrical energy into useful work, such as light (bulb), heat (heater), or motion (motor). Voltage is the potential difference, current is the flow of charge, and amperes measure current—none of these convert energy into work.
- 11easy
The system on which the flow of electricity is always in one direction
- A.Power
- B.Integrated circuit
- C.Alternating current
- D.Direct current
Show answer & explanation
Answer: D. Direct current
Direct current (DC) is an electric current that flows consistently in one direction from the negative terminal to the positive terminal of a power source. This is in contrast to alternating current (AC), which periodically reverses direction. Power and integrated circuits are not types of current flow.
- 12easy
The amount of heat required to take 1 lb. of water to change its temperature 1 degree F
- A.British thermal Unit (BTU)
- B.Voltage
- C.Watt
- D.Calorie
Show answer & explanation
Answer: A. British thermal Unit (BTU)
The British thermal Unit (BTU) is specifically defined as the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of 1 pound of water by 1 degree Fahrenheit. This is the standard unit of heat measurement in the imperial system. Voltage, Watts, and Calories measure different quantities (electrical potential, power, and energy respectively).
