APPSC (Arunachal Pradesh) Prelims Paper 2 Mock Test- 8 - Question 4

A survey conducted in Britain confirmed that an abnormally high percentage of patients suffering from arthritis of the spine who had been treated with X rays contracted cancer. Another study revealed a high incidence of childhood cancer in cases where the mother had been given prenatal pelvic X rays. These studies have pointed to the need to re-examine the assumption that exposure to low-linear energy transfer presents only a minor risk. Recently, examination of the death certificates of former employees of a West Coast plant that produces plutonium for nuclear weapons revealed markedly higher rates for cancers of the pancreas, lung, bone marrow, and lymphatic system than would have been expected in a normal population. While the National Academy of Sciences committee attributes this difference to chemical or other environmental causes rather than radiation, other scientists maintain that any radiation exposure, no matter how small, leads to an increase in cancer risk. It is believed by some that a dose of one rem, if sustained over many generations, would lead to an increase of 1 percent in the number of serious genetic defects at birth, a possible increase of 1,000 disorders per million births.

According to the passage, some scientists believe that a dose of one rem of radiation continued over a period of generations would

APPSC (Arunachal Pradesh) Prelims Paper 2 Mock Test- 8 - Question 9

For some time, scientists have believed that cholesterol plays a major role in heart disease because people with familial hypercholesterolemia, a genetic defect, have six to eight times the normal level of cholesterol in their blood and they invariably develop heart disease. Scientists also noticed that people with familial hypercholesterolemia appear to produce more LDL’s (low-density lipoproteins) than normal individuals. However, scientists wondered, could a genetic mutation that causes a slowdown in the removal of LDL’s from the blood also result in an increase in the synthesis of this cholesterol-carrying protein? Since scientists could not experiment on human body tissue, their knowledge of familial hypercholesterolemia was severely limited. However, a breakthrough came in the laboratories of Yoshio Watanabe of Kobe University in Japan in 1980. Watanabe noticed that a male rabbit in his colony had ten times the normal concentration of cholesterol in its blood. By appropriate breeding, Watanabe obtained a strain of rabbits that had very high cholesterol levels. These rabbits spontaneously developed heart disease. To his surprise, Watanabe further found that the rabbits, like humans with familial hypercholesterolemia, lacked LDL receptors. What scientists learned by studying the Watanabe rabbits is that the removal of the VLDL (very low-density lipoproteins) remnant requires the LDL receptor. Normally, the majority of the VLDL remnants go to the liver where they bind to LDL receptors and are degraded. In the Watanabe rabbit, due to a lack of LDL receptors on liver cells, the VLDL remnants remain in the blood and are eventually converted to LDL’s. The LDL receptors thus have a dual effect in controlling LDL levels. They are necessary to prevent over synthesis of LDL’s from VLDL remnants and they are necessary for the normal removal of LDL’s from the blood.

Q. The passage supplies information to answer which of the following questions?

Detailed Solution for APPSC (Arunachal Pradesh) Prelims Paper 2 Mock Test- 8 - Question 9
From the sentence "Normally, the majority of the VLDL remnants go to the liver where they bind to LDL receptors and are degraded. ” passage supplies information about the answer of "Where in the body are VLDL remnants degraded.”.

APPSC (Arunachal Pradesh) Prelims Paper 2 Mock Test- 8 - Question 12

"I want to criticize the social system, and to show it at work, at its most intense." Virginia Woolf’s provocative statement about her intentions in writing Mrs. Dalloway has regularly been ignored by the critics, since it highlights an aspect of her literary interests very different from the traditional picture of the "poetic” novelist concerned with examining states of reverie and vision and with following the intricate pathways of individual consciousness. In her novels, Woolf is deeply engaged by the questions of how individuals are shaped (or

deformed) by their social environments, how historical forces impinge on people’s lives, how class, wealth, and gender help to determine people’s fates. Most of her novels are rooted in a realistically rendered social setting and in a precise historical time.Woolf’s focus on society has not been generally recognized because of her intense antipathy to propaganda in art. The pictures of reformers in her novels are usually satiric or sharply critical.Woolf detested what she called "preaching" in fiction, too, and criticized novelist D. H. Lawrence (among others) for working by this method. Woolf’s own social criticism is expressed in the language of observation rather than in direct commentary, since for her, fiction is a contemplative, not an active art. Woolf’s literary models were acute social observers like Chekhov and Chaucer. As she put it in The Common Reader, "It is safe to say that not a single law has been framed or one stone set upon another because of anything Chaucer said or wrote; and yet, as we read him, we are absorbing morality at every pore."

Greek architecture of the great age is the expression of men who were, first of all, intellectual artists, kept firmly within the visible world by their mind, but, only second to that, lovers of the human world. The Greek temple is the perfect expression of the pure intellect illumined by the spirit. No other great buildings anywhere approach its simplicity. In the Parthenon straight columns rise to plain capitals; a pediment is sculptured in bold relief; there is nothing more. And yet-here is the Greek miracle this absolute simplicity of structure is alone in majesty of beauty among all the temples and cathedrals and palaces of the world. Majestic but human, truly Greek. No superhuman force as in Egypt; no strange supernatural shapes as in India; the Parthenon is the home of humanity at ease, calm, ordered, sure of itself and the world. The Greeks flung a challenge to nature in the fullness of their joyous strength. They set their temples on the summit of a hill overlooking the wide sea, outlined against the circle of the sky. They would build what was more beautiful than hill and sea and sky and greater than all these. It matters not at all if the temple is large or small; one never thinks of the size. It matters not how much it is in ruins. A few white columns dominate the lofty height at Sounion as securely as the great mass of the Parthenon dominates all the sweep of sea and land around Athens. To the Greek architect man was the master of the world. His mind could understand its laws; his spirit could discover its beauty

How many candidates had none of the three?

Detailed Solution for APPSC (Arunachal Pradesh) Prelims Paper 2 Mock Test- 8 - Question 23

Number of candidates who had none of the three = Total number of candidates - the number of candidates who had at least one of three devices.

The total number of candidates = 1300.

We know that, Total= A + B + C - {A ∩ B + B ∩ C + C ∩ A + 2(A ∩ B ∩ C)} + neither

Therefore, 1300 = 900 + 630 + 690 - {300 + 360 + 230 +200} + neither

=> Neither = [1300 − (900 + 630 + 690) + (300 + 360 + 230 + 200)]

The number of candidates having neither = 170

The ratio of Adam’s age 4 years ago and Eve’s age after 4 years is 1: 1. Presently, the ratio of their ages is 4 : 3. Find the ratio between Adam’s age 4 years hence and Eve’s age 4 years

Detailed Solution for APPSC (Arunachal Pradesh) Prelims Paper 2 Mock Test- 8 - Question 24

Currently, the ratio of their ages is 4: 3. Suppose, their ages are: 4x and 3x.

Adam’s age 4 years ago = 4x – 4

Eve’s age after 4 years = 3x + 4

The ratio of Adam’s age 4 years ago and Eve's age after 4 years is 1: 1

Therefore,

=

Solving, we get x = 8

We are required to find the ratio between Adam’s age 4 years hence and Eve’s age 4 years ago.

Adam's age: (4x + 4)

Eve's age: (3x – 4)

Putting the value of x, we get:

= = =

So, the required ratio is 9: 5
