Solutions
S1.Ans. (a)
Sol. Radioactive dating is a technique which can be used to measure the age of rocks etc. In this process the half age of radio active is measured and on the basis of the quantity remaining after half the age of the rock, wood etc. is measured.
S2.Ans. (d)
Sol. Green leaf perform important functions which includes manufacturing of food, Interchange of gases and evaporation of water. But it doesn’t include conduction of food and water.
S3.Ans. (c)
Sol. In plane mirror, the image distance always equals the object distance. Therefore, when the distance between the object and the plane mirror increases then the distance between the image and the plane mirror also increases.
S4.Ans. (b)
Sol. Butter paper is a translucent object as it allows light to pass through it partially, thus not providing clear vision. While, a transparent substance allows light to pass through it completely providing a clear vision. Whereas, an opaque substance is impenetrable to light. On the other hand, luminous objects emit their own light.
S5.Ans. (b)
Sol. When the light rays pass through the atmosphere having layers of different densities and refractive indices, then atmospheric refraction takes place. The actual sunrise takes place when the sun is above horizon. When the sun is just below the horizon, the light rays coming from it, on entering the Earth’s atmosphere suffer atmospheric refraction from a rarer to a denser medium, thus, bending towards normal at each refraction. Due to continuous refraction of light rays at each layer, it follows a curved path and reaches the eye of the observer. As a result, we can see the sun 2 min before it rises above the horizon in the morning.
S6.Ans. (c)
Sol. Bone marrow is located within the bone cavities. It is composed of stromal cells and parenchymal cells. Neutrophils and lymphocytes are blood cells which are produced within bone marrow.
S7.Ans. (b)
Sol. The blood group of father of the child could be A or B or O.
S8.Ans. (b)
Sol. White blood cells (WBC) bring out the function of body defence.
S9.Ans. (c)
Sol. Newton’s 2nd Law – The rate of Change of momentum always acts in the direction of resultant force acting on a body = (F = ma) (where m = mass; a = aceeleration).
S10.Ans. (c)
Sol. Silica and aluminium are the two main constituents of granite. Granite contains 70-77% of silica and 11-13% of aluminium in the form of (Al2O3).
