A. Article 19
B. Article 356
C. Article 32
D. Article 14

Detailed Solution for Mock Test: SSC JE Civil Engineering (CE)- 4 - Question 78 A mere declaration of fundamental rights in the Constitution is meaningless, useless, and worthless without providing effective machinery for their enforcement if and when they are violated.

Which bacterial strain developed from natural isolates by genetic manipulations can be -used for treating oil spills?

A. Agrobacterium
B. Clostridium
C. Nitrosomonas
D. Pseudomonas

Detailed Solution for Mock Test: SSC JE Civil Engineering (CE)- 4 - Question 96 The PAHs found in the oil are particularly resistant to microbial degradation by the intrinsic stability of the aromatic ring. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons pose a significant health hazard as many are toxic or carcinogenic and persist in the oil‐polluted environments long after the (linear) alkanes are degraded. Luckily, PAHs also have biological origins and are, for example, formed by the combustion of organic matter in forest fires. A natural occurrence of compounds usually means that some bacteria can be found in Nature that can feed on them. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons comprise of two or more fused aromatic rings with a diverse range of branching types and aromatic groups. Not surprisingly, therefore, effective PAH breakdown involves whole communities of both bacteria and eukaryotes.
