NVS Female Staff Nurse Mock Test - 8 - NVS TGT/PGT MCQ

Given:

Number of work completed by Rita and Meena = 10 days

Number of work completed by Rita alone = 15 days

Formula used:

Work = Efficiency × Time

Calculation:

LCM of 10 and 15 is 30

Efficiency of Rita and Meena = (30/10) = 3 units/day

Efficiency of Rita = (30/15) = 2 units/day

Efficiency of Meena = [30/(3 – 2)] units/day

⇒ (30/1) unit/day

⇒ 30 days

∴ The required time to complete the work by Meena is 30 days

Given:

Distance travelled by the object in 4 sec = 24 m

Distance travelled by the object in 2 sec = 15 m

Formula used:

Distance = Speed × time

Average speed = Total distance/Total time

Calculation:

Total distance travelled by the object = 24 + 15 = 39 m

Total time taken = 4 + 2 = 6 sec

Average speed = 39/6 

⇒ 6.5 m/s

∴ The average speed of the object is 6.5 m/s.

The logic follows here is:

In fig 1:

12 = 6 ÷ 2 × 4

12 = 3 × 4 

12 = 12

In fig 2:

80 = 20 ÷ 2 × 8

80 = 10 × 8

80 = 80

Similarly,

63 = ? ÷ 2 × 21

63 / 21 = ? ÷ 2

3 = ? ÷ 2

? = 3 × 2

? = 6

Hence, the correct answer is "6".

The logic is :

1) BEH

2) KNR

3) GJM

4) TWZ

Hence, 'KNR' is the odd letter.

P is male member and married to Q.
P is husband and Q is wife.
R is brother of P.
S is the son of R.
T, who is the sister of S will be daughter of R.
Q is the daughter-in-law of U, whose husband has died means U is the mother of P.

Cells most sensitive to hypoxia are Neurons.

Neurons in the mammalian CNS are highly sensitive to the availability of oxygen. Hypoxia can alter neuronal function and can lead to neuronal injury or death. The underlying changes in the membrane properties of single neurons have been studied in vitro in slice preparations obtained from various brain areas.

The upper region of the trickling filter is favorable for the growth of algae, and at times their growth may become so extensive that it impairs the operation of the filter.

If the fetus is exposed to the virus between 12 and 26 weeks, the incidence of defects drops to 23%. Congenital rubella syndrome is rare in infants whose mothers were initially exposed to the virus after 26 weeks of gestation. Interestingly, the fetus is more likely to have birth defects if the mother contracted rubella before conception - infants whose mothers contracted the virus 0-4 weeks before conception have as much as 43% incidence of congenital rubella syndrome, due to it's long incubation period.

Recognition acknowledges a patient’s behavior and highlights it without giving an overt compliment. A compliment can sometimes be taken as condescending, especially when it concerns a routine task like making the bed. However, saying something like “I noticed you took all of your medications” draws attention to the action and encourages it without requiring a compliment.
