Q:

Yellow colour of papaya is due to

A) Caricaxanthin B) Carotene
C) Lycopene D) Papain
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Caricaxanthin

Explanation:

Papayas are yellow due to the presence of carotene and xanthophyll pigments i.e, Caricaxanthin present in the chromoplasts of the fruit pulp.

 

The coloration of the different tissues in plants is due to the plastids which are present in the cells. Leucoplasts are white in colour, chloroplasts are green in colour and chromoplasts are of various colours. These plastids can take any colour at different time. Therefore, green fruits ( chloroplasts) turn colurful (chromoplasts) at maturity.

Q:

Find the appropriate relation for quantity1 and quantity2 in the following question:

Quantity 1: In an examination, Ankita scored 35 marks less than Puneeta. Puneeta scored 65 more marks than Meenakshi. Rakhi scored 115 marks, which is 20 marks more than Meenakshi's. Simpy scored 108 marks less than the maximum marks of the test. What approximate percentage of marks did Simpy score in the examination, if she got 67 marks more than Ankita?

Quantity 2: The length of a rectangle is increased by 60%. By what percent would the width have to be decreased to maintain the same area?

A) Quantity1 < Quantity2 B) Quantity1 ≤ Quantity2
C) Quantity1 ≥ Quantity2 D) Quantity1 > Quantity2
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Quantity1 > Quantity2

Explanation:

Quantity1-
Rakhi’s marks= 115
Meenakshi’s marks= 115 - 20 = 95
Puneeta’s marks= 95 + 65= 160
Ankita’s marks=160 - 35= 125
Simpy’s marks= 125+ 67= 192
Total maximum marks= 192 + 108= 300
Required percentage marks of Simpy
192300×100=64%
Quantity2-
Let length and breadth be 100.

After increase in length it become 160, then
reduction in breadth be ‘x’
Now, 160*x= 100*100
Hence, x = 10000160=62.5

100-62.5=37.5%
