Q:

How many window coverings are necessary to span 50 windows, if each window covering is 15 windows long?

A) 4 B) 15
C) 3 D) 50
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 4

Explanation:

Given that, 

Number of windows = 50

Each window covering covers 15 windows

=> 50 windows requires 50/15 window coverings

= 50/15 = 3.333

 

Hence, more than 3 window coverings are required. In the options 4 is more than 3. 

 

Hence, 4 window coverings are required to cover 50 windows of each covering covers 15 windows.

Q:

Which best describes Genes?

A) long, double chains of nucleic acids. B) long, single chains of amino acids.
C) long, single chains of nucleic acids. D) long, double chains of amino acids.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) long, double chains of nucleic acids.

Explanation:

Gene is a segment of chromosomal DNA or a sequence of DNA or RNA that codes for a molecule that has a function. It is the basic physical and functional unit of heredity.

 

As genes are made up of DNA it impies that they are long, double chains of nucleic acids as DNA is made of nucleic acids.

C) Basal metabolism is measured by the amount of calories burned when your body is inactive. D) Metabolism is influenced by numerous factors, such as heredity and age.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Younger people generally have a slower metabolism than adults.

Explanation:

Metabolism is the set of life-sustaining chemical transformations within the cells of organisms. The three main purposes of metabolism are the conversion of food/fuel to energy to run cellular processes, the conversion of food/fuel to building blocks for proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and some carbohydrates, and the elimination of nitrogenous wastes.

 

Younger people have faster metabolism than adults. Hence, the given statement 'Younger people generally have a slower metabolism than adults' is FALSE.

Q:

Akhil after travelling 50 km meets Raju who suggests him to go slower. He then proceeds at ¾ of his former speed and arrives at his destination 35 minutes late. Had the meeting occurred 24 km further Akhil would have reached its destination 25 minutes late. What is the initial speed of Akhil?

 

A) 48 kmph B) 36 kmph
C) 24 kmph D) 20 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 48 kmph

Explanation:

Let the initial speed of Akhil be '4p' kmph

Then speed after decrease in speed = '3p' kmph

We know that, 

Change in speed == Change in time

According to the given data,

243p - 244p = 35 - 2560=> p = 12

 

Hence, the initial speed of Akhil = 4p = 4 x 12 = 48 kmph.
