Answer : 1. "Rs. 1033.33"
Explanation :

Answer: A) Rs. 1033.33 Explanation: Let P's capital = p, Q's capital = q and R's capital = r.Then 6p = 8q = 12r=> 3p = 4q = 6r=>q = 3p/4r = 3p/6 = p/2P : Q : R = p : 3p/4 : p/2= 4 : 3 : 2R's share = 4650 * (2/9) = 150*6 = Rs. 1033.33.

Answer : 1. "1460"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 1460 Explanation: Days in 4 years =>  Let the first year is Normal year i.e, its not Leap year. A Leap Years occurs once for every 4 years. 4 years => 365 + 365 + 365 + 366(Leap year) 4 years => 730 + 731 = 1461   Therefore, Number of Days in 4 Years = 1461 Days.

Answer : 3. "the chemical properties of their R groups"
Explanation :

Answer: C) the chemical properties of their R groups Explanation: Amino acids are organic compounds containing amine (-NH2) and carboxyl (-COOH) functional groups, along with a side chain (R group) specific to each amino acid.   Depending on the nature of the side chain groups, three classes of aminoacids can e distinguished: 1. Amino acids with H ond donor and acceptor groups. Histidine, lysine, aspartic acid, threonine,... 2. Amino acids with donor grups only. Arginine, tryptophan and cysteine. 3. Amino acids with acceptor groups only. Asparagine and glutamine.

Answer : 3. "Synaptic cleft"
Explanation :

Answer: C) Synaptic cleft Explanation: A neuron or nerve cell is a cell that carries electrical impulses. Neurons are the basic units of the nervous system and its most important part is the brain. Every neuron is made of a cell body (also called a soma), dendrites and an axon. Dendrites and axons are nerve fibres.   The gap between two communicating neurons is termed Synaptic cleft.

Q: Two stations A and B are 200 km apart on a straight track. One train starts from A at 7 a.m. and travels towards B at 20 kmph. Another train starts from B at 8 a.m. and travels towards A at a speed of 25 kmph. At what time will they meet? 1977 0

Answer : 4. "12 p.m."
Explanation :

Answer: D) 12 p.m. Explanation: Assume both trains meet after 'p' hours after 7 a.m.Distance covered by train starting from A in 'p' hours = 20p kmDistance covered by train starting from B in (p-1) hours = 25(p-1)Total distance = 200=> 20x + 25(x-1) = 200=> 45x = 225=> p= 5Means, they meet after 5 hours after 7 am, ie, they meet at 12 p.m.

Q: How long will it take for two pipes A and B to fill an empty cistern if they worked alternately for an hour each ? A. Working alone, Pipe A can fill the cistern in 40 hoursB. Pipe B is one third as efficient as Pipe A 1976 0

Answer : 3. "Both (A) and (B) are sufficient"
Explanation :

Answer: C) Both (A) and (B) are sufficient Explanation: From statement A, we know that Pipe A can fill the tank in 40 hours. However, this information is not sufficient as we do not have the data for Pipe B. Hence, statement A alone cannot answer the given question.From statement B, we know that Pipe B is one third as efficient as pipe A. However, we do not know the rate at which Pipe A fills the tank. Hence, we will not be able to find the rate at which Pipe B fills the cistern. Therefore, statement B alone is not sufficient to answer the question.Now, if we combine the two statements, we know that Pipe A take 40 hours to fill the cistern.Pipe B takes 120 hours to fill the cistern.If they worked alternately, then either Pipe A could have started the cycle or Pipe B could have started the cycle.If Pipe A started the sequence of filling alternately, then at the end of two hours, the two pipes together would have filled 1/40 + 1/120 = 1/30  th of the tank in an hour. Or the cistern will fill in 30 hours.If Pipe B started the sequence, then at the end of 2 hours, the two pipes together would have filled 1/120 + 1/40 = 1/30 th of the tank in an hour. Or the cistern will fill in 30 hours.As the answer obtained irrespective of which pipe started the sequence is the same, the correct answer is (3) - i.e., both the statement are sufficient to answer the question.

Answer : 2. "synthesis of DNA from an RNA template"
Explanation :

Answer: B) synthesis of DNA from an RNA template Explanation: A reverse transcriptase (RT) is an enzyme used to generate complementary DNA (cDNA) from an RNA template by a process called Reverse Transcription. In brief its function is that copies all or part of the virus RNA (retroviruses are RNA-only) as DNA which can then be integrated into the DNA of the host organism.

Answer : 4. "2018"
Explanation :

Answer: D) 2018 Explanation: Count the number of odd days from the year 2007 onwards to get the sum equal to 0 odd day. Year : 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017Odd day : 1 2 1 1 1 2 1 1 1 2 1 Sum = 14 odd days => 0 odd days.Calendar for the year 2018 will be the same as for the year 2007.
