Answer : 2. "Monosaccharides can be classified according to the spatial arrangement of their atoms."
Explanation :

Answer: B) Monosaccharides can be classified according to the spatial arrangement of their atoms. Explanation: Monosaccharides, also called simple sugars, are the most basic units of carbohydrates. They are fundamental units of carbohydrates and cannot be further hydrolyzed to simpler compounds.   Hence, Monosaccharides can be classified according to the spatial arrangement of their atoms is true about Monosaccharides.

Answer : 1. "(1)"
Explanation :

Answer: A) (1) Explanation: The error lies in part (1).  As the phrase 'as much as' needs to be replaced with 'much as I'. This is because we use 'as much as' for comparing two qualities or things. But here in the given sentence a contrast is given in the latter part of the sentence. So we need a conjunction like 'even though' 'although' etc... 'Much as I' also serves the same purpose.

Answer : 4. "Refraction of light & Total Internal Reflection of light"
Explanation :

Answer: D) Refraction of light & Total Internal Reflection of light Explanation: A Mirage is a naturally occurring optical phenomenon in which light rays bend to produce a displaced image of distant objects or the sky. It is caused due to Total internal Reflection. It is an optical illusion observed in deserts or hot summer days due to which a person sees a pond of water some distance ahead of him in which the surrounding objects appear inverted. How Mirage Forms:: 1. The temperature of other layers of atmosphere goes on decreasing as we go up.2. Therefore density and refractive index of air changes as one goes up.3. Thus a ray of light,gets refracted more and more away from the normal.4. At a particular angle when a ray of light exceeds critical angle, total internal reflection takes place and ray of light gets reflected in the same medium.5. when the reflected ray reaches our eye, it appears as coming from tree or sky .6. Hence the inverted image of tree creates an impression from a pond of water.

Answer : 3. "60 kmph"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 60 kmph Explanation: Speed on return trip = 150% of 50 = 75 km/hr. Average speed = (2 x 50 x 75)/(50 + 75) = 60 km/hr.
