Answer :
Explanation :

From the assumption and trial and error method, last three digits sum must leave the same digit as the answer. It is possible only if the answer must be units digit number leaving tens digit as carry. And the possible 3rd digit is 5. Since 5 + 5 + 5 = 15  Now, 2nd step is  1 + x + x + x = 5 => 3x = 4 It is possible with x = 8. 8 + 8 + 8 + 1 = 25 leaving 2 as carry.  Now, 3rd step is 2 + x + x + x = 5 => x = 1   Hence, the three dgits are 1, 8, 5. 185 + 185 + 185 = 555.

Answer : 2. "225 days"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 225 days Explanation: Given that (10M + 15W) x 6 days = 1M x 100 days => 60M + 90W = 100M => 40M = 90W => 4M = 9W. From the given data, 1M can do the work in 100 days => 4M can do the same work in 100/4= 25 days. => 9W can do the same work in 25 days. => 1W can do the same work in 25 x 9 = 225 days.   Hence, 1 woman can do the same work in 225 days.

Answer :
Explanation :

An organelle called Eyespot allows some protists to detect light. It allows the cells to sense light direction and intensity and respond to it by swimming either towards the light (positive phototaxis) or away from the light (negative phototaxis).   Eyespot is a photoreceptive organelle found in the flagellate or (motile) cells of green algae and other unicellular photosynthetic organisms such as euglenids.   Eyespot-mediated light perception helps the cells in finding an environment with optimal light conditions for photosynthesis. Eyespots are the simplest and most common "eyes" found in nature, composed of photoreceptors and areas of bright orange-red pigment granules.
