Answer: C) Robert Brown Explanation: Robert Brown, Scottish botanist, Discovered The Nucleus of a Cell in 1831, London. When Brown was studying orchids under microscope when he observed an opaque area, which he called the "Areola" or "Nucleus", in the cells of the flower's outer layer. The nucleus was also described by Franz Bauer in 1804 but in detail Robert Brown made it in 1831.

Answer: B) 2.7 hrs Explanation: Let Speed of boat in still water = b Let Speed of still water = w Then we know that, Speed of Upstream = U = boat - water Speed of Downstream = D = boat + water Given, U + D = 82 b - w + b + w = 82 2b = 82 => b = 41 kmph From the given data, 41 - w = 105/3 = 35 w = 6 kmph Now, b + w = 126/t => 41 + 6 = 126/t => t = 126/47  = 2.68 hrs.

Answer: C) Rs. 1400 Explanation: We know thatThe Difference between Compound Interest and Simple Interest for n years at R rate of interest is given by C.In - S.In = PR100n Here n = 2 years, R = 20%, C.I - S.I = 56 56 = P201002=> P = 56 x 52=> P = 56 x 25=> P = Rs. 1400

Answer: A) Amino acids Explanation: Proteins are long chains of Amino acids. That is in brief, Amino acids are the monomers of Proteins. Amino acids are compounds which contain both an amino group and a carboxylic group. Proteins are made up of 20 essential amino acids. Monomer means a small molecule of an organic substance i.e, building block in general.

About 150 - 200 species of plant, insect, bird and mammal become extinct every day or 24 hrs. This is not an accurate but an estimation by U.N. Convention on Biological Diversity and Global Extinction Rates. It is also said that current extinctions were 'up to 100 times higher than the background rate.'

Answer: D) 10 Explanation: Given nuber series is 15, 30, ? , 40, 8, 48  Here the number series follows a pattern that 15 15 x 2 = 30 30 ÷ 3 = 10 10 x 4 = 40 40 ÷ 5 = 8 8 x 6 = 48 Hence, the missing number in the series is 10.

Answer: B) 1962 Explanation: Arithmetic Series ::   An Arithmetic Series is a series of numbers in which each term increases by a constant amount.   How to find the sum of the Arithmetic Sequence or Series for the given Series ::   When the series contains a large amount of numbers, its impractical to add manually. You can quickly find the sum of any arithmetic sequence by multiplying the average of the first and last term by the number of terms in the sequence.   That is given by Sn = n(a1 + an)2 Where n = number of terms, a1 = first term, an = last term   Here Last term is given by an = a1 + n-1d where d = common difference   Now given Arithmetic Series is    2, 5, 8, 11,...   Here a1 = 2,  d = 3, n = 36    Now, an= a1 + n - 1d a36= 2 + 36 - 13 = 105 + 2 = 107    Now, Sum to 36 terms is given by   S36 = 36(2 + 107)2 = 36 x 1092 = 39242 = 1962       Therefore, Sum to 36 terms of the series 2, 5, 8, 11,... is 1962.
