Answer : 2. "Intracellular transport"
Explanation :
Answer: B) Intracellular transport Explanation: A cytoskeleton is the frame that gives shape to a cell. And also it offers support, and facilitates movement through three main components: microfilaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules. The cytoskeleton helps the cell move in its environment and controls the movement of all of the cell's interior workings.

Answer : 2. "5 m/h"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 5 m/h Explanation: As the distance travelled is constant, the time taken is inversely proportional to speed. Let 'u' be the speed of the current and 'v' be the speed of the boat. Speed of the boat downstream = v + u & upstream = v - u => v+u/v-u = 30/20 => v/u = 5 => v = 5u => v + u = 6u = 10/20/60 miles/hr => 6u = 30 m/h => u = 5 m/h
Q: The capacity of a tank is 2400 m3. A pump can be used both for filling and emptying the tank. The emptying capacity of the pump is 10 m3/minute higher than its filling capacity. And also, the pump needs 8 minutes less to empty the tank than to fill it. Find the filling capacity of the pump. 2391 05b5cc6b1e4d2b4197774d332

Answer : 4. "50 cub.m/min"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 50 cub.m/min Explanation: Let filling capacity of the pump be 'F' m3/min Then, the filling capacity of the pump will be (F + 10) m3/min From the given data, 2400F - 2400F+10= 8⇒ 2400 F+10-FF(F+10) =8⇒ F2 + 10F - 3000 = 0⇒ F = 50 m3/min
