Correct Sentence- He informed me earlier that he would not come.  

The correct option is Option 4, i.e., ‘discourage’.
The word ‘dissuade’ means ‘to advise against something’. The word closest in meaning, from the given options is ‘discourage’, which has a similar meaning. Hence, the correct option is Option 4.

Let us first learn the meanings of the given words:

Troop (noun): a group of soldiers or scouts.

Troupe (noun): a group of performers.

Fleet (noun): a group of ships sailing together, engaged in the same activity, or under the same ownership.

After reading the meanings, we can conclude that only ‘troop’ is the perfect contextual fit.

Hence, the correct answer is option C.

The correct order will be:
The grocer → who was in the habit of weighing less (Q)→ did not listen to the protests of customer (P)→ whom he had cheated (R)→ with great audacity. (S)

The above given sentence is given in Passive Voice :-
Use structure “subject + auxiliary + past participle + by + object”
The beggar was laughed at by the boy.
Thus , option B will be required answer .

r% of r = 49

Visual memory is a form of memory that describes the relationship between perceptual processing and the storage, encoding and retrieval of the resulting representations. It is a memory that preserves some characteristics of our senses pertaining to a visual experience. If a child is facing a problem of visual memory it will create difficulty in retaining Mathematical facts and difficulty in telling time. 
Hence, the correct answer is, 'Difficulty in retaining Mathematical facts and difficulty in telling time.'

Since A, B and C are the angles of a Δ,
∴ A + B + C = 180° .................... (1)
According to question,
A – B = 15° ;
⇒ A = B + 15°...................(2)
B – C = 30°;
⇒ B = C + 30°;....................(3)
Put the value of B from equation (2) in Equation (1), we will get
∴ A = B + 15°
A = C + 30° + 15°
A = C + 45° ......................(4)
From a equation,
∴ A + B + C = 180°
⇒ (C + 45°) + (C + 30°) + C = 180°
⇒ 3C + 45° + 30° = 180°
⇒ 3C = 180° – 75° = 105°
⇒ C = 35° ...........................(5)
From equation (4)
A = C + 45°
Put the value of C from equation (5) , we will get
∴ ∠A = 35° + 45° = 80°.

Unstructured observation is an important tool for collecting assessment data because it does not interrupt the daily life of classroom- thereby being strong on reliability and validity. An unstructured observation records incidents that take place spontaneously. This observation must be shared with the parents and the learners.

The lithosphere of the earth causes of crust and outer mantle. This is the place where we find the soil which enables the growth of most of the plants and also the climatic conditions are suitable. The atmosphere is a layer of sir that surrounds our Earth and it is retained by the gravity. The hydrosphere is a layer of water on the earth's surface, it consists of all the water bodies present on Earth.  Mesosphere is a layer of the atmosphere, present between the Stratosphere and the Thermosphere. The temperature in this layer decreases with an increase in altitude. 
Hence, the correct answer is "Lithosphere".
