The One that does not belong: Fingers

Explanation:
- In this question, we are given a group of body parts: Lungs, Eyes, Fingers, Ears, and Kidneys.
- We need to identify the body part that does not belong to this group.
- Let's analyze each body part to determine the odd one out.

Lungs:
- Lungs are a vital organ of the respiratory system.
- They are responsible for the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the body.
- Lungs play a crucial role in the process of breathing.
- Lungs are part of the respiratory system.

Eyes:
- Eyes are sensory organs that help us see and perceive the world around us.
- They are responsible for vision and are an essential part of the visual system.
- Eyes are part of the sensory system.

Fingers:
- Fingers are the digits on our hands.
- They are used for gripping, grasping, and manipulating objects.
- Fingers are part of the musculoskeletal system.

Ears:
- Ears are sensory organs responsible for hearing and maintaining balance.
- They help us perceive sound waves and maintain equilibrium.
- Ears are part of the auditory system.

Kidneys:
- Kidneys are vital organs of the urinary system.
- They filter waste products from the blood and produce urine.
- Kidneys are responsible for maintaining fluid balance and regulating blood pressure.
- Kidneys are part of the excretory system.

Conclusion:
- Based on the analysis, the odd one out from the given group is Fingers.
- While the other body parts (Lungs, Eyes, Ears, and Kidneys) are part of different systems in the body, Fingers are part of the musculoskeletal system and have a different function.
- Therefore, fingers do not belong to the same group as the other body parts mentioned.

Mehul Ghoshal answered
Explanation:

To determine which option does not belong to the group, we need to find a pattern or rule that applies to the other options.

Pattern:
Looking at the options, we can see that each option consists of four digits. Let's label these digits as A, B, C, and D.

In options A, B, D, and E, the digits A and B remain the same in each position, while the digits C and D are swapped.

For example:
- In option A (4422), A=4, B=4, C=2, and D=2.
- In option B (2442), A=2, B=4, C=4, and D=2.
- In option D (2244), A=2, B=2, C=4, and D=4.
- In option E (4224), A=4, B=2, C=2, and D=4.

Exception:
However, in option C (4242), the digits C and D are not swapped. Instead, they remain the same.

This makes option C different from the other options, breaking the pattern observed. Therefore, option C does not belong to the group.

Conclusion:
The option that does not belong to the group is option C (4242).

  • e)
     130
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Lakshmi Kumar answered
30 = 33 + 3, 630 = 54 + 5, 10 = 23 + 2, 520 = 83 + 8 and 130 = 53 + 5.
30, 10, 130 and 520 can be expressed as n3 + n but not 630.

     5125
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Mehul Ghoshal answered
The given question asks us to identify the number that does not belong to a certain group. To find the odd one out, we need to analyze the given numbers and look for any patterns or characteristics that differentiate one number from the others.

Analyzing the numbers:
a) 11
b) 28
c) 327
d) 416
e) 5125

Looking at the numbers, we can observe the following patterns:

1. Prime numbers: 11 and 327 are prime numbers. Prime numbers are positive integers greater than 1 that have no divisors other than 1 and itself. The other numbers in the list are not prime.

2. Squares: 28 and 5125 are perfect squares. A perfect square is a positive integer that can be expressed as the square of another integer. The other numbers in the list are not perfect squares.

3. Digits: All the numbers in the list have different digits except for option d) 416, which has the digit '1' repeated twice. This makes it unique compared to the other numbers.

Identifying the odd one out:
Based on the above observations, we can conclude that option d) 416 does not belong to the same group as the other numbers. It differs from the others in terms of its digit repetition pattern.

Therefore, the correct answer is option d) 416.

Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Akshay Das answered
20 = 42 + 4, 42 = 62 + 6, 58 = 72 + 9, 72 = 82 + 8 and 90 = 92 + 9.
20, 42, 72 and 90 can be expressed in n2 + n form but not 58.

Find the one which does not belong to that group ?
  • a)
     Regiment
  • b)
     Lieutenant
  • c)
     Colonel
  • d)
     Major
  • e)
     Brigadiar
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Explanation:

To determine which option does not belong to the group, we need to analyze the characteristics or qualities that define the group. In this case, the group consists of military ranks, specifically those of higher command.

Regiment:
A regiment is a military unit that consists of multiple battalions or squadrons. It is a lower-level unit compared to the other options in the list.

Lieutenant:
A lieutenant is a junior officer rank in many armed forces. It is the lowest officer rank in most naval and air force organizations.

Colonel:
A colonel is a senior officer rank in the military, usually ranking above a lieutenant colonel and below a brigadier general.

Major:
A major is a military officer rank that is above a captain and below a lieutenant colonel. Majors typically command a battalion or serve as staff officers in higher command.

Brigadier:
A brigadier is a senior officer rank, typically commanding a brigade or serving in a senior staff position.

Conclusion:
Based on the characteristics and qualities of the group, the odd one out is Regiment. It is not a rank or a specific position within the military hierarchy but rather a unit or formation. The other options in the list are all officer ranks, indicating higher command positions.

  • c)
     NPLR
  • d)
     BDZF
  • e)
     FHDJ
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Mehul Ghoshal answered
Explanation:

The given options are:
a) OQMS
b) UAWY
c) NPLR
d) BDZF
e) FHDJ

To determine the option that does not belong to the group, we need to identify a pattern or rule that applies to the other options.

Pattern:
Upon observation, we can see that each option consists of a sequence of letters. Each letter in the sequence is obtained by moving one step forward in the alphabet from the previous letter.

For example:
- In option a) OQMS, the next letter after O is P, after Q is R, after M is N, and after S is T.
- Similarly, in option c) NPLR, the next letter after N is O, after P is Q, after L is M, and after R is S.

Identifying the option that does not fit:
Now let's apply the same pattern to each option and see which one does not fit.

- In option b) UAWY, the next letter after U is V, after A is B, after W is X, and after Y is Z. So this option fits the pattern.
- In option d) BDZF, the next letter after B is C, after D is E, after Z is A, and after F is G. So this option fits the pattern.
- In option e) FHDJ, the next letter after F is G, after H is I, after D is E, and after J is K. So this option fits the pattern.

Conclusion:
By applying the pattern to each option, we can see that all options except option b) UAWY fit the given pattern. Therefore, option b) UAWY does not belong to the group.

Sameer Jain answered
Explanation:
To determine which option does not belong to the group, we need to analyze the similarities and differences among the given options.

Similarity:
All the given options are names of cities in India.

Differences:
To identify the option that does not belong to the group, we need to find a characteristic that sets it apart from the others. Let's analyze each option individually:

- Tiruvanantapuram: It is the capital city of the state of Kerala.
- Hyderabad: It is the capital city of the state of Telangana and also the de jure capital of Andhra Pradesh.
- Calicut (Kozhikode): It is a city in the state of Kerala.
- Bangalore (Bengaluru): It is the capital city of the state of Karnataka.
- Bhubaneswar: It is the capital city of the state of Odisha.

Conclusion:
After analyzing the given options, we can see that Calicut (Kozhikode) is the odd one out. It is the only city that is not a state capital. Therefore, option C (Calicut) does not belong to the group.

     Seal
  • c)
     Zeal
  • d)
     Meal

     Real
Correct answer is option 'E'. Can you explain this answer?

Lakshmi Kaur answered
Explanation:

The given options are:
a) Deal
b) Seal
c) Zeal
d) Meal
e) Real

To identify the option that does not belong to the group, we need to find a common characteristic or pattern among the other options. Let's analyze each option:

a) Deal: This word is related to making an agreement or arrangement between two or more parties.

b) Seal: This word refers to a device used for stamping or making an impression, typically in wax or paper, to show that a document is authentic or to close an envelope or container.

c) Zeal: This word describes great enthusiasm or passion for a cause or an objective.

d) Meal: This word refers to the food that is prepared and eaten at specific times of the day, such as breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

e) Real: This word refers to something that exists objectively and is not imaginary or fictional.

Analysis:

Upon analyzing the given options, we can observe that four out of the five options (a, b, c, and d) share a common characteristic - they all end with the sound "eel." This common characteristic indicates a pattern among the options.

Conclusion:

The option that does not belong to the group is "e) Real" because it does not share the common characteristic of ending with the sound "eel" like the other options. Therefore, "Real" is the odd one out in this group.

Find the one which does not belong to that group ?
  • a)
     PMS
  • b)
     ROU
  • c)
     GDJ
  • d)
     KIM
  • e)
     EBH
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Lakshmi Kaur answered
Explanation:

The letters PMS, ROU, GDJ, and EBH have something in common, while KIM does not fit into this group.

Commonality:

The commonality among PMS, ROU, GDJ, and EBH is that each letter is the first letter of the three consecutive letters in the English alphabet.

- PMS: PQRS, MNO, STUV
- ROU: RSTU, OPQ, UVWX
- GDJ: GHIJ, DEF, JKLM
- EBH: EFGH, ABC, IJKL

Exception:

However, KIM does not follow this pattern. The letters K, I, and M are not consecutive in the English alphabet. Therefore, KIM is the odd one out among the given options.

- KIM: KLM, GHI, NOP

Thus, the correct answer is option 'D' (KIM).

Find the one which does not belong to that group ?
  • a)
     Chameleon
  • b)
     Crocodile
  • c)
     Turtle
  • d)
     Allegator
  • e)
     Frog
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Explanation:

Chameleon does not belong to the group because it is the only animal in the given options that has the ability to change its color to match its surroundings.

Crocodile, Turtle, Alligator, and Frog all belong to the group of reptiles and amphibians, which are cold-blooded vertebrates. They share similar characteristics such as laying eggs and having scales or tough skin.

Chameleon is a unique reptile that has the ability to change its color. This adaptation helps them to camouflage themselves in their environment for hunting and avoiding predators. They can change their color in response to temperature, light, and mood. This ability sets them apart from other reptiles and amphibians in the given options.

Crocodile, Turtle, Alligator, and Frog are all different types of reptiles and amphibians, but they do not possess the same color-changing ability as the chameleon.

Therefore, the correct answer is option A - Chameleon.

  • c)
     Exhibition
  • d)
     Botanical park
  • e)
     Zoo
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Dipika Kaur answered
Explanation:

In this question, we are given a group of options consisting of Museum, Auction, Exhibition, Botanical park, and Zoo. We need to identify the one option that does not belong to the group.

Museum: A museum is a place where objects of historical, cultural, or scientific importance are preserved, studied, and exhibited. It is a common place for people to visit and learn about various aspects of history, art, and science.

Auction: An auction is a public sale where goods or items are sold to the highest bidder. It is a common practice to auction off valuable items such as artwork, antiques, or collectibles.

Exhibition: An exhibition refers to a public display of items or works of art. It can be organized to showcase a specific theme, artist, or period. Exhibitions are often held in museums, galleries, or other cultural institutions.

Botanical park: A botanical park is a garden or park that is dedicated to the cultivation and display of a wide variety of plants, including flowers, trees, and shrubs. It is a place where people can explore and appreciate the beauty of nature.

Zoo: A zoo is a facility where animals are kept for public display and educational purposes. It provides a safe and controlled environment for visitors to observe and learn about different species of animals.

Auction stands out as the option that does not belong to the group because it is not directly related to the display or preservation of objects or the natural world. Unlike the other options, which focus on showcasing artifacts, artwork, plants, or animals, an auction is primarily a commercial activity where items are sold to the highest bidder.

Therefore, the correct answer is option B - Auction.

Find the one which does not belong to that group ?
  • a)
     343
  • b)
     121
  • c)
     1331
  • d)
     2197
  • e)
     125
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

343 = 73, 121 = 112, 1331 = 113, 2197 = 133 and 125 = 53.
343, 1331, 2197 and 125 are perfect cubes, but not 121.
