About this Exam
Prepare with the Certified Manager of Animal Resources (CMAR) AR Practice Exam practice quiz. This question bank includes 10 questions covering dogs, cats, non-human, manager, and animal. Use it to review important concepts, identify knowledge gaps, and build confidence for the related exam, course, or assessment.
Sample Questions
Question
1
For dogs, cats, and non-human primates in transit, which requirement is correct?
Explanation:
During transit, the focus is on safeguarding welfare through proper housing, ventilation, temperature control, and safe handling rather than enforcing a fixed feeding schedule. There isn’t a universal mandate that requires offering food and water to dogs, cats, and non-human primates within a specific timeframe while in transit. While providing water and monitoring hydration are important in practice, the rules in this context do not establish a fixed requirement, which is why no specific feeding or watering requirement is the correct choice. The other options imply time-based or mandatory feeding, which aren’t universally mandated.
Question
2
Xenopus ova foreign DNA expression.
Explanation:
The main idea is that Xenopus ova can transcribe and translate injected foreign DNA, turning it into RNA and then protein. The oocyte’s transcriptional and translational machinery is highly active, so if the foreign DNA includes a promoter that the oocyte’s RNA polymerase II recognizes, it will be transcribed into mRNA and then translated into a detectable protein. That’s why expressing the foreign DNA is the expected outcome. So, the best answer is “Express,” because the goal is to see the exogenous gene produce RNA and protein inside the egg. While DNA can occasionally be degraded or the DNA might bind to cellular components without producing protein, the scenario described focuses on the ability of the oocyte to express the introduced genetic material.
Question
3
Which of the following is an inbred strain of mice?
Explanation:
Inbred strains are created by long-term brother-sister matings to produce nearly identical genetics across individuals, giving researchers a uniform background to study. BALB/c is a classic example of an inbred strain, maintained for many generations to maintain genetic and phenotypic consistency that’s valuable for immunology and cancer research. The other strains listed are outbred stocks, kept to preserve genetic diversity and heterogeneity, which makes them less uniform for controlled experiments. That combination of consistent genetics and well-documented traits makes BALB/c the best choice.
Question
4
The standard autoclave sterilization cycle commonly cited is:
Explanation:
Steam under pressure makes autoclaving effective by driving the temperature up to about 121°C (250°F). At this temperature, proteins in microorganisms denature and most spores are killed when the exposure is long enough. The commonly cited standard cycle uses 121°C at about 15 psi for 15 minutes, which reliably sterilizes typical wrapped instruments and loads while keeping the process efficient. The other options either don’t reach a sufficient temperature or time to guarantee sterility, or impose a higher temperature for longer than the standard routine, which isn’t the typical cycle referenced for general autoclave sterilization.
Question
5
What is the relationship between mission and vision in an organization?
Explanation:
The mission defines why the organization exists today—the purpose, scope, and how it serves stakeholders. The vision translates that purpose into a future state the organization aims to achieve, showing what success looks like down the road to fulfill the mission. Because the future direction must align with and support the organization’s purpose, the mission helps create the vision. In practice, you start with the mission to anchor your long-term aspirations, then craft a vision that shows how fulfilling that mission will unfold over time. That grounding explains why the correct choice emphasizes that the mission helps shape the vision.
