Apart from bacteria, which of the following living species may be involved in the nitrogen cycle in our atmosphere?

  1. Animals
  2. Humans
  3. Green plants

Select the correct answer code:

Detailed Solution for APPSC General Aptitude Mock Test - 7 - Question 14
  • Plants generally take up nitrates and nitrites and convert them into amino acids which are used to make proteins. These proteins and other complex compounds are subsequently consumed by animals.
  • Once the animal or the plant dies, other bacteria in the soil convert the various compounds of nitrogen back into nitrates and nitrites. A different type of bacteria converts the nitrates and nitrites into elemental nitrogen.
  • Thus, there is a nitrogen-cycle in nature in which nitrogen passes from its elemental form in the atmosphere into simple molecules in the soil and water, which get converted to more complex molecules in living beings and back again to the simple nitrogen molecule in the atmosphere.

II.C is heavier than only T.

Detailed Solution for APPSC General Aptitude Mock Test - 7 - Question 17

From I, we have: B > T, B > C, V > B. Thus, V is heavier than each one of B, T and C. But V is not the heaviest. So, E is the heaviest.

So Option A is correct

APPSC General Aptitude Mock Test - 7 - Question 18

A man complete a journey in 10 hours. He travels first half of the journey at the rate of 21 km/hr and second half at the rate of 24 km/hr. Find the total journey in km.

Detailed Solution for APPSC General Aptitude Mock Test - 7 - Question 18

Let time taken to travel the first half = x hr 
⇒ Time taken to travel the second half = (10 - x) hr 

∵ Distance = Time * Speed
Distance covered in the first half = 21x 
Distance covered in the the second half = 24(10 - x)

∵  Distance covered in the the first half = Distance covered in the the second half
⇒ 21x = 24(10 - x)
⇒ 45x = 240
⇒ x = 16/3

Total Distance = 2 * 21(16/3) = 224 Km [∵ multiplied by 2 as 21x was the distance of half way]

Assertion (A): Regeneration in animals is one of the strategies to escape predation.
Reason (R): These strategies include the rearrangement of pre-existing tissue.

Both assertion and reason are false. Regeneration is not itself a strategy but rather the shedding off of any organ is a strategy to avoid predation. The strategy to regenerate the body parts from the preexisting tissue or adult stem cells. This actually involves the de-differentiation of the mature cells to make them a sort of stem cells again which can then differentiate to make the lost part. The later strategy is different than the strategy involved in escaping predation.
