Explanation:

Enzymes are biological catalysts. Enzymes are the catalysts involved in biological chemical reactions.

A fundamental task of proteins is to act as enzymes—catalysts that increase the rate of virtually all the chemical reactions within cells.

A catalyst remains chemically unchanged itself at the end of a reaction.

Each enzyme has a temperature that it works optimally in, which in humans is around 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit, 37 degrees Celsius –the normal body temperature for humans.

Q:

Improve the given sentence if necessary.

My father has given his ascent for my long tour.

A) accent B) approof
C) assent D) No improvement
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) assent

Explanation:

Ascent’ means upward moment and is incorrect as per the meaning of the sentence. ‘Accent’ means to emphasize a particular feature; ‘Approof’ means trial, and ‘Assent’ means to give an expression of approval or agreement. Thus, ‘Ascent’ needs to be replaced with ‘Assent’ Thus, the correct formation would be, ‘My father has given his assent for my long tour’.

Q:

Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.


The flora and fauna of Cubbon Park captures our attention more than anything else. But when you take time to look closely at the statue, you will marvel at its sheer grandeur. Sculpted by Sir Thomas Brock, the 11 feet high marble statue is larger than life. It brings out the personality of Queen Victoria, who had been the Monarch of Great Britain from 1837 till 1901, depicting a rather proud, stern person with pronounced features.

In 1906, the statue was unveiled in the city by George Frederick Ernest Albert, Prince of Wales and Duke of Cornwall and York, making it stand in all its glory in its 111th year. Even though there is a wealth of history to the statue, and it was made to appear imposing, the busy Bengalureans would probably refer to it as just another landmark. As the workers are busy in discussion on the instructions given to them, life continues as usual in the Park.


How many people unveiled the Queen Victoria statue at Cubbon Park?

A) One B) Six
C) Four D) Two
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Two
