Q1.If D and f are the objective diameter, and focal length, Minimum separation, dmin, in the object plane of a compound microscope that can be resolved is given by
Answer : Option BExplaination / Solution: No Explaination.
Q3.If a species experiences a 90 percent decline over 10 years (or three generations), would be classified as :
Answer : Option BExplaination / Solution:
A critically endangered (CR) species is one which has been categorized by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) as facing a very high risk of extinction in the wild.
Criteria for critically endangered is an observed, estimated, inferred or suspected population size reduction of ≥ 90% over the last 10 years or three generations, whichever is the longer, where the causes of the reduction are clearly reversible AND understood AND ceased.
Critically endangered species should be protected to avoid extinction.
Q5.Read the following statements about gestational diabetes :
i. It must be controlled to protect baby’s growth and development. ii. It puts women at risk for developing Type – 1 diabetes.
Answer : Option AExplaination / Solution:
Gestational diabetes develops during pregnancy. It must be controlled to protect baby’s growth and development. This kind of diabetes never leads to develop type-1 diabetes.

It is also called as blue bottle or floating terrror it is found floating on water surface.

The tentacles can extend to 165 feet, although, the average length is 30 feet (Portuguese Man-of War Physalia physalis).
Q9.When arsenic is added as an impurity to silicon, the resulting material is
Answer : Option AExplaination / Solution:
Doping is the process of intentionally introducing impurities into an extremely pure (i.e., intrinsic) semiconductor in order to change its electrical properties. The impurities are dependent upon the type of semiconductor. Lightly and moderately doped semiconductors are referred to as extrinsic semiconductor. A semiconductor which is doped to such high levels that it acts more like a conductor than a semiconductor is called degenerate.
Dopant atoms can either be “donors” or “acceptors.” Donors increase the elctron concentration in the silicon, whereas acceptors increase the hole concentration.
When Arsenic crystal is doped with silicone atoms, then it becomes N-type.
