Q:

A group of five persons is formed from five boys and four girls. Find the probability that there are at least two girls in the group?

A) 110/129 B) 5/6
C) 121/126 D) 3/7
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 110/129

Explanation:

Total number of possible ways = 

9C5 = 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 x 55 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 126

Number of favorable cases = 

4C2 x 5C3 + 4C3 x 5C2 + 4C4 x 5C14 x 32 x 1 x 5 x 4 x 33 x 2 x 1 + 4 x 3 x 23 x 2 x 1 x 5 x 4 2 x 1 + 1 x 5= 6 x 10 + 4 x 10 + 5= 60 + 40 + 5= 105

 

Therefore, required probability = 105/126 = 5/6

Q:

One-third of the boys and one-half of the girls of a college participated in a sport. If the number of participating students is 300, out of which 100 are boys. What is the total number of students in the college ?

A) 550 B) 575
C) 625 D) 700
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 700

Explanation:

Let number of boys = B

Number of girls = G

From the given data,

1B/3 + 1G/2 = 300

But given B/3 = 100

=> B = 300

G/2 = 300 - 100

G = 200 x 2

=> G = 400

Therefore, total number of students in the college = B + G = 700.

Q:

How do cancer cells differ from normal cells?

Answer

There are many differences between cancer cells and normal cells. Some of the differences are well known, whereas others have only been recently discovered and are less well understood.

Cancer Cells vs. Normal Cells ::



Below are some of the major differences between normal cells and cancer cells, which in turn account for how malignant tumors grow and respond differently to their surroundings than benign tumors.



Growth :—


Normal cells stop growing (reproducing) when enough cells are present. For example, if cells are being produced to repair a cut in the skin, new cells are no longer produced when there are enough cells present to fill the hole; when the repair work is done. In contrast, cancer cells don’t stop growing when there are enough cells present. This continued growth often results in a tumor (a cluster of cancer cells) being formed. 



Communication :—


Cancer cells don’t interact with other cells as normal cells do. Normal cells respond to signals sent from other nearby cells that say, essentially, “you’ve reached your boundary.” When normal cells “hear” these signals they stop growing. Cancer cells do not respond to these signals.



Stickiness :—


Normal cells secrete substances that make them stick together in a group. Cancer cells fail to make these substances, and can “float away” to locations nearby, or through the bloodstream or system of lymph channels to distant regions in the body.


 


Ability to Metastasize (Spread) :—


Normal cells stay in the area of the body where they belong. For example, lung cells remain in the lungs. Cancer cells, because they lack the adhesion molecules that cause stickiness, are able to travel via the bloodstream and lymphatic system to other regions of the body—they have the ability to metastasize. 


 


Appearance :—


Under a microscope, normal cells and cancer cells may look quite different. In contrast to normal cells, cancer cells often exhibit much more variability in cell size—some are larger than normal and some are smaller than normal. In addition, cancer cells often have an abnormal shape, both of the cell, and of the nucleus (the “brain” of the cell.) 



The rate of growth :—


Normal cells reproduce themselves and then stop when enough cells are present. Cancer cells reproduce rapidly before the cells have had a chance to mature.


 


Maturation :—


Normal cells mature. Cancer cells, because they grow rapidly and divide before cells are fully mature, remain immature. Doctors use the term undifferentiated to describe immature cells (in contrast to differentiated to describe more mature cells.) 


 


Evading the immune system  :—


When normal cells become damaged, the immune system (via cells called lymphocytes) identifies and removes them. Cancer cells are able to evade (trick) the immune system long enough to grow into a tumor by either by escaping detection or by secreting chemicals that inactivate immune cells that come to the scene.


 


Functioning :—


Normal cells perform the function they are meant to perform, whereas cancer cells may not be functional. For example, normal white blood cells help fight off infections. In leukemia, the number of white blood cells may be very high, but since the cancerous white blood cells are not functioning as they should, people can be more at risk for infection even with an elevated white blood cell count.

Q:

A Bus travels first half distance between two places with a speed of 40 kmph and the rest half distance with a speed of 60 kmph. The average speed of the Bus is ?

A) 48 kmph B) 50 kmph
C) 46 kmph D) 42 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 48 kmph

Explanation:

we know that speed = distance traveled/time taken
let the total distance traveled by the car is 2x km.
then time taken by it to cover first half is x/60 hour.
and for second half is x/40 hour.
Then average speed= total distance travelled / total time taken.

 

i.e. 2xx60+x40

 

=> 2x5x120

 

= 48 kmph.

Q:

From the given series of numbers, if half of the second highest number is subtracted from the third highest number, what will be the value ?

519 328 746 495 837

A) 146 B) 203
C) 345 D) 96
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 146

Explanation:

From the given series of numbers, if half of the second highest number is subtracted from the third highest number, what will be the value ?

Now arranging the given numbers in descending order.
837 746 519 495 328

519 - 746/2 = 519 - 373 = 146.
