Taxonomy is the science dealing with classification.

Similarly, pedology deals with the study of soils.

Hence, Taxonomy : Classification :: Pedology :Soils.

In VIBGYOR. It has colors ordered from highest to lowest frequency.

              Violet > Indigo > Blue > Green > Yellow > Orange > Red

That says Violet has the highest frequency.

We know, Speed of light = Frequency x Wavelength

=> As frequeny is inversely proportional to wavelength i.e, as frequwncy goes high wavelength goes down.

So, the violet color has the highest frequency.

Central Processing Unit (CPU) is the brain of any computer system.

Given Word is PROMISE.

Number of letters in the word PROMISE = 7

Number of ways 7 letters can be arranged = 7! ways

Number of Vowels in word PROMISE = 3 (O, I, E)

Number of ways the vowels can be arranged that 3 Vowels come together = 5! x 3! ways

Now, the number of ways of arrangements so that three vowels should not come together

= 7! - (5! x 3!) ways = 5040 - 720 = 4320.

The given statement, The heat from the sun reaches earth through Convection is FALSE.

Heat from the sun actually reaches the earth through Radiation. The process occurs through electromagnetic radiation, specifically, in which molecules are warmed when the heat reaches them, and these molecules then warm other molecules touching them, which continues until we feel the sun's heat.

Given number is 987 = 3 x 7 x 47.

So, required number must be divisible by each one of 3, 7, 47.

None of the numbers in 553681 and 555181 are divisible by 3. While 556581 is not divisible by 7.
Correct answer is 555681.

In the real numbers, zero does not have a reciprocal because no real number multiplied by 0 produces 1 (the product of any number with zero is zero).

Hence, 0 doesn't have any multiplicative inverse.
