Q2. Revenue for a firm is
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.
Q3. Deforestation and burning of fossil fuels adds to the environmental pollution by :
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:
Deforestation and burning of fossil fuels adds to the environmental pollution As it increases the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere which traps excessive heat and increases global temperature causing global warming.
Q4. Which of the following pairs of ions have same paramagnetic moment?
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

Q5. Correlation coefficient is independent of change of
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:
By change of scale we mean that all values of X and y series are multiplied or divided by some constant.by change of origin we mean that a constant is subtracted from all values of x and y series if the scale and origin of X and y series are changed the value of r remain unchanged

Q7. Which of the following is responsible for peat formation?
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:
Sphagnum mosses not only dominate large areas of the boreal peatlands, but they have also formed these habitats by their growth and production of decay-resistant litter. As they invade, they can quickly transform a high-pH fen with little peat accumulation to a bog where large amounts of carbon is stored. They are also responsible for the many types of surface patterns observed in peatlands. Their ability to shape and transform mires can to a large extent be understood from the peculiar anatomy and biochemistry, a fact which makes the links between species’ traits and ecosystem functions in peatlands very strong.
