Explaination / Solution:

The coxal bone (hip bone, pelvic bone) is a large, flattened, irregularly shaped bone, constricted in the center and expanded above and below. It consists of three parts, the ilium, ischium, and pubis, which are distinct from each other in the young subject, but are fused in the adult.

Q2. Human protein α-1-antitrypsin is used to treat
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

Transgenic organisms produce useful biological products. Augmentation therapy is the use of alpha-1 antitrypsin protein (AAT) from the blood plasma of healthy human donors to augment (increase) the alpha-1 levels circulating in the blood and lungs of Alphas diagnosed with emphysema. Human protein α-1-antitrypsin is used to treat emphysema is also obtained from transgenic animal.

Q3. Oxidation number of −1/2 is assigned to oxygen atom in
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

In the superoxide ion, O2, the oxygen has an oxidation number of −1/2. The stability of metal superoxides depends on the size and the electropositive character of the metal. The larger the metal and the more electropositive it is, the greater the stability of its superoxide.

Q6. The dielectric constant K of an insulator can be
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

Dielectric constant of air is 1. All dielectrics generally have a value of the dielectric constant greater than 1.where  is the force between two charged particles in a medium of dielectric constant K and F is the force between the two charges when placed in air.The force between two charges is greatest in air or vacuum and it decreases when any medium is placed between the charges. K cannot have negative, fractional or zero values.
