Answer: C) 32 Explanation: The given number series follows 5, 4, 9, 32, 308 pattern that   5 5 x 1 - 1 = 4 4 x 3 - 3 = 9 9 x 5 - 5 = 40 (not equals to 32) 40 x 7 - 7 = 273   Hence, the odd man in the given number series is 32.

Answer: B) Plant ----> Animal ----> Atmosphere Explanation: During daylight hours, plants capture carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and use it to make carbohydrates which is stored as starch in the plant. Animals feed on the plants and extract the carbohydrates through their digestive system. The carbohydrates, namely glucose, are used by the animals for production of ATP through cellular respiration.   Cellar respiration in the animals produces carbon dioxide as a waste product. The carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere, from where it is again captured by plants and the cycle is repeated.   Hence, option B) Plant ----> Animal ----> Atmosphere is the path possible in carbon cycle.

Answer: B) 5 Explanation: Let M, N and O worked together for x days. From the given data,M alone worked for 8 daysM,N,O worked for x daysN, O worked for 1 day But given thatM alone can complete the work in 18 daysN alone can complete the work in 36 daysO alone can complete the work in 54 days The total work can be the LCM of 18, 6, 54 = 108 units M's 1 day work = 108/18 = 6 unitsN's 1 day work = 108/36 = 3 unitsO's 1 day work = 108/54 = 2 units Now, the equation is8 x 6 + 11x + 5 x 1 = 10848 + 11x + 5 = 10811x = 103 - 4811x = 55x = 5 days. Hence, all M,N and O together worked for 5 days.

Answer: A) Higher Explanation: A savings account is the most basic type of account at a bank or credit union, allowing you to deposit money, keep the funds safe, and withdraw funds as needed. Savings accounts typically pay interest on your deposits, which helps you grow your money, but rates are relatively low on these low-risk accounts. A checking account is a deposit account held at a financial institution that allows withdrawals and deposits. Also called demand accounts or transactional accounts, checking accounts are very liquid and can be accessed using checks, automated teller machines and electronic debits, among other methods.   Hence, Saving accounts usually offer higher interest rates than checking accounts.

Answer: B) Rs. 441 Explanation: Given principal amount = Rs. 8000 Time = 3yrs Rate = 5% C.I for 3 yrs = 8000 x 105100 x 105100 x 105100 - 8000= Rs. 1261   Now, C.I for 2 yrs = 8000 x 105100 x 105100= Rs. 820    Hence, the required difference in C.I is 1261 - 820 = Rs. 441

Answer: C) It's a high-pressure zone with sinking air Explanation: The Inter-tropical convergence zone rather has rising air, with common thunderstorms and attendant precipitation and is known by seamen as the doldrums. Inter-tropical convergence zone is where the trade winds collide.   Hence, it is not a high pressure zone with sinking air.

Answer: D) Specific enzymes breakdown proteins into amino acids Explanation: Protein digestion occurs in the stomach and duodenum in which 3 main enzymes:   1. Pepsin secreted by the stomach  2. Trypsin and 3. Chymotrypsin secreted by the pancreas   Break down food proteins into polypeptides that are then broken down by various exopeptidases and dipeptidases into amino acids.
