The India's commerce and industry ministry has started the exercise to revise base year to 2017-18 for computation of wholesale inflation with a view to present more realistic picture of the price situation

In May last year, the government revised the base year for WPI-based inflation to 2011-12 to give a better indication of changes in prices of commodities.

The new index, with 2017-18, is expected to have new items, which would provide a more realistic picture of price rise and its impact on people.

Most of the additions could be in the manufactured products category. Currently, the index has a total of 697 items, including primary articles, fuel and power and manufactured products.

The poison was in the ice. When the girl drank the iced tea, the ice was still fully frozen. Gradually, as the ice cubes melted the poison was released into the drink.

Hence, the girl who died, drunk the tea after the ice melted. So, she was died. 

As given equal amounts of alloys are melted, let it be 1 kg.

Required ratio of gold and silver = 513 + 58813 + 38 = 105103.

Hence, ratio of gold and silver in the resulting alloy = 105/103.

Total number of female members = 115

Let the number of males = x

Number of females = y

=> x + y = 115  ......(1)

According to the given data,

x + y(0.50) = 69 ......(2)

From (1) & (2), we get

0.5y = 46

=> y = 46 x 2 = 92

=> x = 115 - 92 = 23

Hence, required number of gentlemen in the family = x = 23.

Genetic drift or allelic drift is the change in the relative frequency in which a gene variant (allele) occurs in a population due to random sampling and chance.

When is genetic drift a major factor in evolution is

* When there is low gene flow.

* When there is no selective pressure.

* When there is a bottleneck.
