Answer : 1. "6CO2 + 6H2O -----> C6H12O6 + 6O2"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 6CO2 + 6H2O -----> C6H12O6 + 6O2 Explanation: Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms activities.   Photosynthesis can be represented using a chemical equation.   The overall balanced equation is                 6CO2 +  6H2O   →Sunlight    C6H12O6   +   6O2Source of Carbon & Oxygen  + Source of Electrons & Hydrogen + Energy that drives Photosynthesis             ----> Sugar + Gas produced by splitting water.   Where  CO2 = carbon dioxide  H2O = waterC6H12O6 = glucose  O2 = oxygen.

Answer : 3. "The Himalayas provide the barrier effect"
Explanation :

Answer: C) The Himalayas provide the barrier effect Explanation: The whole of India, south of the Himalayas can be climatically treated as a tropical country as the Himalayas provide the barrier effect.    Indian subcontinent is separated from the rest of Asia by the lofty Himalayan ranges which block the cold air masses moving southwards from Central Asia.     As a result, during winters, the northern half of India is warmer by 3°C to 8°C than other areas located on same latitudes.    During summer, due to over the head position of the sun, the climate in the southern parts resemble equatorial dry climate.   The seasonal reversal of winds in Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal give India a typical tropical monsoon climate.   So Indian climate, to be precise, is Tropical monsoon type (a distinct wet and dry climate) rather than just a tropical or half temperate climate.

Answer : 4. "165"
Explanation :

Answer: D) 165 Explanation: Ratio C1:C2 = 3:5 and C2:C3 = 7:11So C1:C2:C3 = 21 : 35 : 55Let the strength of three classes are 21x, 35x and 55x respectively, then Given that 21x + 35x + 55x = 333=> 111x = 333 or x=3So strength of the class with highest number of students =55x = 55x3 = 165.
