The Odd One Out: Explanation

Introduction: The given options are Tiger, Cow, Lion, and Wolf. We need to identify the odd one out among these four options.

Tiger: Tiger is a wild animal that belongs to the cat family. It is known for its strength, speed, and agility. Tigers are carnivorous animals and they hunt other animals for food.

Cow: Cow is a domestic animal that is widely used for milk and meat production. It is considered as a sacred animal in India and is worshipped by Hindus.

Lion: Lion is a wild animal that belongs to the cat family. It is known for its majestic appearance and is referred to as the 'King of the Jungle'. Lions are carnivorous animals and they hunt other animals for food.

Wolf: Wolf is a wild animal that belongs to the dog family. It is known for its hunting skills and is often associated with howling at the moon. Wolves are carnivorous animals and they hunt other animals for food.

The Odd One Out: The odd one out among these four options is Cow. The reason for this is that Cow is the only domestic animal among the given options whereas the other three options are wild animals. Moreover, Cow is herbivorous and does not hunt other animals for food unlike the other three options which are carnivorous.

Conclusion: Therefore, the correct answer is option 'B' Cow, as it is the odd one out among the given options.

The probability that a leap year has 53 Sundays is​
  • a)
    3/7
  • b)
    2/7
  • c)
    4/7
  • d)
    1/7
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Ananya Das answered
There are 366 days in a leap year, i.e, 1 more than a normal year.
Now, 52 weeks make up 344 days (52 x 7 = 344)
That means that we already have 52 sundays for sure.
Then, we are left with 2 days. Now, these days can be any from a pair of- mon-tues,tues-wed,wed-thurs,thurs-fri,fri-sat,sat-sun,sun-mon. Here favourable cases are sat-sun and sun-mon i.e, 2 cases and total number of cases is 7.
So, Probability=number of favourable cases/Total number of cases.
Therefore, Probability= 2/7.

MCQ (Multiple Choice Questions) for Practice with Solutions of Chapter "Consumer Rights" of Economics (Understanding Economic Development) of Class 10 SST (Social Science Studies)
 
Q. A consumer :
  • a)
    Sells goods and services
  • b)
    Buy goods and services
  • c)
    Produces goods and services
  • d)
    Delivers goods and services
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Pooja Shah answered
The consumer is the one who pays something to consume goods and services produced. As such, consumers play a vital role in theeconomic system of a nation. Without consumer demand, producers would lack one of the key motivations to produce: to sell to consumers. The consumer also forms part of the chain of distribution.

The probability that a consonant is selected from the English alphabet is

    21/26
  • b)
    1/26
  • c)
    1/2
  • d)
    5/26
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Consonants are those English alphabets that are non-vowels. So there are 5 vowels out of 26 alphabets. Thus there are (26-5)= 21 consonants.
So correct probability will be
P(getting a consoant) = ²¹/₂₅.
This is why A is the correct option.

A die is thrown once. Find the probability of getting a number that is either composite or prime.​
  • a)
    4/6
  • b)
    3/6
  • c)
    6/6
  • d)
    5/6
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Vikas Kumar answered
The possible outcomes when a dice is thrown = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

Number of possible outcomes of a dice = 6

Prime numbers on a dice are 2, 3, and 5.
Composite numbers on dice = 4, 6

Total prime numbers on a dice = 3
Total composite numbers on a dice  = 2
So, total (prime + composite) = 5

Probability of getting a number that is either prime or composite = 5/6

In a given food chain, suppose the amount of energy at fourth trophic level is 5 kJ, what will be the energy available at the producer level ?
Grass → Grasshopper → Frog → Snake → Hawk
  • a)
    5 kJ
  • b)
    50 kJ
  • c)
    500 kJ
  • d)
    5000 kJ
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Surbhi Gupta answered
According to 10 percent law, 90% of the energy captured from the previous trophic level is lost to the environment and only 10 percent is made available to the next trophic level.

In this food chain, at the 4th trophic level, 5 kJ energy is available to the snake

⇒ Energy available to Frog = 10% of 50 kJ

⇒ Energy available to Grasshopper = 10% of 500 kJ

⇒ Energy available to Grass = 10% of 5000 kJ.

Which of the following statements about food chain and energy flow through ecosystem is false?
  • a)
    Food webs include two or more food chains
  • b)
    All organisms that are not producers are consumers
  • c)
    A single organism can feed at several trophic levels
  • d)
    Detritivores feed at all trophic levels except the producer level
  • e)
    The lower the trophic level at which an organism feeds, the more energy available
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Gaurav Kumar answered
There are many food chains which are interconnected to form the food web and so one organism can feed at different trophic levels in the different food chain. There is a 0gradual decrease in the energy of the increasing trophic levels due to the loss of energy with each transfer. The producers are the organisms which can synthesize food and the organisms which feed on the other sources are known as consumers. The detrivores are the organisms which feed on the dead matter of the organisms which belong to all the trophic levels.

Out of a day’s production, which is 1000 machine parts, 100 were found to be sub-standard. The probability that a part selected at random being up to the standard is
  • a)
    1/10
  • b)
    7/10
  • c)
    9/10
  • d)
    2/10
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Understanding the Problem
In a day's production, the total number of machine parts produced is 1000. Out of these, 100 parts were found to be sub-standard. We need to determine the probability that a randomly selected part is up to standard.
Calculating Total Standards
- Total parts produced: 1000
- Sub-standard parts: 100
- Parts that are up to standard: 1000 - 100 = 900
Calculating Probability
The probability of selecting a part that is up to standard can be calculated using the formula:
Probability = (Number of favorable outcomes) / (Total number of outcomes)
In this case:
- Number of favorable outcomes (standard parts) = 900
- Total number of outcomes (total parts) = 1000
So, the probability is:
Probability = 900 / 1000
Simplifying the Probability
Now, simplify 900 / 1000:
- This can be simplified to 9 / 10.
Conclusion
Thus, the probability that a randomly selected machine part is up to standard is 9/10.
The correct option is:
- c) 9/10
This means there is a 90% chance that a part selected at random is of good quality.

Three unbiased coins are tossed. What is the probability of getting at most two heads?
  • a)
    7/8
  • b)
    3/8
  • c)
    1/4
  • d)
    3/7
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Gowri Mehta answered
Understanding the Problem
When three unbiased coins are tossed, each coin can land on either heads (H) or tails (T). We want to find the probability of getting at most two heads.
Total Outcomes
- The total number of outcomes when tossing three coins can be calculated as follows:
- Each coin has 2 possible outcomes (H or T).
- Thus, for three coins: 2 * 2 * 2 = 8 total outcomes.
Possible Outcomes
- The possible outcomes when tossing three coins are:
1. HHH
2. HHT
3. HTH
4. THH
5. HTT
6. THT
7. TTH
8. TTT
Counting Favorable Outcomes
- We need to count the outcomes with at most two heads:
- 0 heads: TTT (1 outcome)
- 1 head: HTT, THT, TTH (3 outcomes)
- 2 heads: HHT, HTH, THH (3 outcomes)
- Total favorable outcomes for at most two heads:
- 1 (0 heads) + 3 (1 head) + 3 (2 heads) = 7 outcomes
Calculating the Probability
- The probability of an event is given by the formula:
Probability = (Number of favorable outcomes) / (Total outcomes)
- In this case:
Probability = 7 / 8
Conclusion
- The probability of getting at most two heads when tossing three unbiased coins is 7/8. Therefore, the correct answer is option 'A'.

If a grasshopper is eaten by a frog, then the energy transfer will be from
  • a)
    producer to decomposer
  • b)
    producer to primary consumer
  • c)
    primary consumer to secondary consumer
  • d)
    secondary consumer to primary consumer
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Anup mishra answered
The energy transfer in this scenario would be from a primary consumer (grasshopper) to a secondary consumer (frog). The grasshopper is considered a primary consumer because it eats plants, which are producers. When the frog eats the grasshopper, it is consuming the energy that was obtained by the grasshopper from the plants it ate. Therefore, the energy transfer is from a primary consumer to a secondary consumer.
