Answer : 1. "they are eukaryotic cells"
Explanation :

Answer: A) they are eukaryotic cells Explanation: If you were to produce a protein in bacterial cloning systems, you would not get the same post transcriptional and post translational modifications because the prokaryotic and eukaryotic systems work differently on the modifications. Thus human recombinant protein genes are usually cloned in yeast cells. Also since they have a short generation time, they can be easily culture.

Answer : 2. "13 + 1/3 days"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 13 + 1/3 days Explanation: C alone can finish the work in 40 days.As given C does half as much work as A and B together => (A + B) can do it in 20 days(A + B)s 1 days wok = 1/20.A's 1 days work : B's 1 days Work = 1/2 : 1 = 1:2(given)A's 1 day’s work = (1/20) x (1/3) = (1/60) [Divide 1/20 in the raio 1:2]B's 1 days work = (1/20) x (2/3) = 1/30(A+B+C)'s 1 day's work = (1/60) + (1/30) + (1/40) = 9/120 = 3/40 All the three together will finish it in 40/3 = 13 and 1/3 days.

Answer : 3. "175"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 175 Explanation: Given that,  working days = 5  working hours = 8  A man get rupess per hour is Rs.2.40  So in one day the man get total rupees is 2.40 x 8 = 19.2  So in 5 days week the man get total rupees is 19.2 x 5 = 96  So in 4 week the man get total rupees is 96 x 4 = 384  So the man worked for = 160hours in 4 weeks    But given that the man earned Rs.432    Hence remaning money is (432-384 = 48)which is earn by doing overtime work   Overtime hours  = 48/3.20 = 15 So total worked hours is = 15 + 160 = 175.

Q: Which pair of atoms has the highest electronegativity difference?   (Calcium's electronegativity is 1.0 Fluorine's electronegativity is 4.0 Hydrogen's electronegativity is 2.2 Sodium's electronegativity is 0.93) 3118 0

  • 1
    F-F
    Correct

Answer : 4. "Na-F"
Explanation :

Answer: D) Na-F Explanation: F-F = 4 - 4 = 0 Ca-F = 4 - 1 = 3.0 H-F = 4 - 2.2 = 1.8 Na-F = 4 - 0.93 = 3.07   Hence, the highest electronegativity difference is in Na-F.

Answer : 1. "120"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 120 Explanation: 1/15 + 1/12 + 1/R = 1/6, we got R = 60 (it means R will take 60 days to complete the work alone) so ratio of work done by P:Q:R = 1/15 : 1/12 : 1/60 = 5 : 4 : 1 so R share = (1/10) x 1200 = 120.

Q: Equal quantities of three mixtures of milk and water are mixed in the ratio 1:2, 2:3 and 3:4. The ratio of water and milk in the mixture is ? 3111 0

Answer : 1. "193 : 122"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 193 : 122 Explanation: Given the three mixtures ratio as (1:2),(2:3),(3:4) (1+2),(2+3),(3+4) Total content = 3,5,7   Given equal quantities of the three mixtures are mixed, then LCM of 3, 5, 7 = 105 105/3 = 35 , 105/5 = 21 , 105/7 = 15   Now, the individual equal quantity ratios are (35x1, 35x2), (21x2, 21x3), (15x3, 15x4)  i.e (35,70), (42,63), (45,60)   So overall mixture ratio of milk and water is 35+42+45 : 70+63+60 122:193   But in the question asked the ratio of water to milk = 193 : 122
