I know its hard to believe but This is not a Homework is a study guide NOT for a grade, made out of 120 questions which i already found 100 and this other 20 are the ones that I'm having trouble with. I already looked some of the answers but I'm not sure if they are correct and some i couldn't find. Our teacher made this questions hard to find there are several chapters mixed together randomly; even if you use the book. This is College level not High School

I need Help finding the answers and confirming for the multiple choice questions please.
