Q:

Improve the given sentence if necessary.

I regret for using objectionable words against a man so mighty.

A) repent for B) sorry for
C) regret D) No improvement
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) regret

Explanation:

‘Regret for’ needs to be replaced with ‘regret’ to make the sentence grammatically correct. This is because ‘regret’ is not followed by a preposition. Thus, the correct formation would be, ‘I regret using objectionable words against a man so mighty’.

Q:

Statement I :

Bioaccumulation is a process of progressive accumulation of heavy metals and pesticides in an organism.

Statement II :

Large fishes of the pond are found to have higher concentration of pesticides than planktons of the same pond.

 

A) Both the statements are individually true and Statement II is the correct explanation of Statement I B) Both the statements are individually true but Statement II is not the correct explanation of Statement I
C) Statement I is true but Statement II is false D) Statement I is false but Statement II is true
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Both the statements are individually true but Statement II is not the correct explanation of Statement I

Explanation:

Bioaccumulation is defined as the increase in concentration of a substance(s) in an organism or a part of that organism.

The affected organism has a higher concentration of the substance than the concentration in the organism's surrounding environment.

For the second statement: Microorganisms eat pesticide infected things. Invertebrates eat hundreds of the microorganisms and plants infected with the pesticides, accumulating a pretty large amount of the toxin in them.

The invertebrates are generally then eaten by larger invertebrates or amphibians, which ingest hundreds of similar organisms, accumulating an even higher concentration of toxins in their bodies. Then the fish eat hundreds of these organisms, accumulating the highest concentration of toxins in themselves.
