Answer : 4. "253"
Explanation :

Answer: D) 253 Explanation: The first person shakes hands with 22 different people, the second person also shakes hands with 22 different people, but one of those handshakes was counted in the 22 for the first person, so the second person actually shakes hands with 21 new people. The third person, 20 people, and so on... So, 22 + 21 + 20 + 19 + 18 + 17 + 16 + 15 + 14 + 13 + 12 + 11 + 10 + 9 + 8 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1= n(n+1)/2 = 22 x 23 /2 = 11 x 23 = 253.

Answer : 2. "360"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 360 Explanation: There are 7 digits 1, 2, 0, 2, 4, 2, 4 in which 2 occurs 3 times, 4 occurs 2 times.    Number of 7 digit numbers = 7!3!×2! = 420   But out of these 420 numbers, there are some numbers which begin with '0' and they are not 7-digit numbers. The number of such numbers beginning with '0'.   =6!3!×2! = 60   Hence the required number of 7 digits numbers = 420 - 60 = 360

Answer : 4. "They have thick walls and transport blood away from the heart"
Explanation :

Answer: D) They have thick walls and transport blood away from the heart Explanation: Because arteries have to have thick walls for use of protection. Its when you get to veins where the walls get thinner. And the use of the heart is to pump blood to all of the cells and organs in the body so it would be to transport blood away from the heart. i.e.  Arteries = Away from the Heart Veins = Back to the Heart.
