cell1528281904.jpg image

A) A B) B
C) C D) E
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) B

Explanation:

The receptor molecules, which receive signals from outside the cell, passing the signal to the inside.

 

In order for a nerve cell, or any cell, to perceive its environment, it needs a sensory apparatus. And for an individual cell, most of that sensation is derived at the cell surface. So, it expresses on its cell surface proteins that span across the membrane.

In the outside world, these proteins can act to receive signals, catching molecules on the outside and then as the molecule passes to the inside of the cell, they can send signals like alarm signals that can tell the cell that a particular molecule is outside.

 

Hence, here B is the receptor cell.

Q:

What is the area of an obtuse angled triangle given below with two sides are 8 and 12 and the angle included between two sides is 150 deg?

A) 48 sq units B) 24 sq units
C) 12 sq units D) 6 sq units
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 24 sq units

Explanation:

We know that, 

The area of a triangle with two sides given and included angle

A = 1/2 x product of sides x Sin(angle) 

 

Here the two sides are 8 & 12

Angle = 150

 

Area = 1/2 x 8 x 12 x sin150

Sin(150) = sin(90+60) = cos(60) = 1/2

 

A = 48 x 1/2 = 24

Area of the given triangle = 24 sq units.

Q:

Mr. Rajan invested Rs 1,00,000 in US Stock Markets when the GBPINR rate was 75. After one year his investment appreciated by 20% in GBP terms. He sold of his investments and repatriated the money to India at the then existing rate of 80. what was real returns in INR?

A) loss of 24% B) gain of 28%
C) loss of 28% D) gain of 20%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) gain of 28%

Explanation:

Money invested by Rajan before 1 year was = Rs. 100000

Money in UK pounds @ 75 is = 100000/75 = 1333.33 Pounds

 

Now, after 1 year invested amount was appreciated by 20%

=> 20% of 1333.33 = 266.66

 

Total investment becomes = 1333.33 + 266.66 = 1600 Pounds

This 1600 Pounds @ Indian currency at 80 = 1600 x 80 = Rs. 1,28,000

 

Hence, Rajan's investment of Rs. 1,00,000 becomes Rs. 1,28,000 in 1 year

 

Therefore, his profit % = [(128000 - 100000)/100000] x 100 = 28%.
