Solutions
S1.Ans. (c)
Sol. The average life span of human RBC is 120 days. It’s life span is much more than WBC and Platelets.
S2.Ans. (d)
Sol. Liquids expand for the same reason, but because the bonds between separate molecules are usually less tight they expand more than solids. This is the principle behind liquid-in-glass thermometers.
S3.Ans. (d)
Sol. When light passes from one medium to another medium frequency does not change.
S4.Ans. (d)
Sol. Night vision cameras have three important features namely amplified light, infrared sensors as well as heat radiation from objects. While, x-rays radiations from objects are not used by these cameras.
S5.Ans. (a)
Sol. Rainbow (a band of seven colours – VIBGYOR) is a natural spectrum. It is caused by dispersion (i.e. splitting of white light into seven constituent colours VIBGYOR) of sunlight by tiny droplets of water present in the atmosphere.
S6.Ans. (d)
Sol. The audible frequency range of a human ear is 20 Hz to 20000Hz.
S7.Ans. (b)
Sol. Microwave oven consumes less power due to short wavelength of radiation.
S8.Ans. (a)
Sol. Bat emitted ultrasonic sounds specifically to produce echoes. By comparing the outgoing pulse with the returining echoes the brain and auditory nervous system can produce detail image of surrounding.
S9.Ans. (a)
Sol. The replication of DNA is a pre-requisite for a eukaryotic cell to undergo division. During the cell cycle, the DNA replicates in S phase (synthesis phase).
S10.Ans. (c)
Sol. The flavour of apples is mainly due to the ethanol (C2H5OH).
