DIRECTIONS for the question: Read the information given below and answer the question that follows.
The Vice Chancellor of a University wants to select a team of five member organizing committee for the next convocation of the University to be held in March 2012. The committee members are to be selected from five shortlisted professors (Prof. Ahuja, Prof. Banerjee, Prof, Chakravarty, Prof Das and Prof. Equbal) and four short listed students (Prakash, Queen, Ravi and Sushil). Some conditions for selection of the committee members are given below:
  1. Prof. Ahuja and Sushil have to be together
  2. Prakash cannot be put with Ravi
  3. Prof. Das and Queen cannot go together
  4. Prof. Chakravarty and Prof. Equbal have to be selected
  5. Ravi cannot be selected with Prof. Banerjee
If two members of the committee are students and Prof. Das is one of the members of the committee, who are the other committee members?
  • a)
    Prof. Banerjee, Prof. Chakravarty, Prakash and Queen
  • b)
    Prof. Ahuja, Prof. Banerjee,, Sushil and Prakash
  • c)
    Prof. Chakravarty, Prof. Equbal, Prakash and Sushil
  • d)
    None of the above
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?
Verified Answer
DIRECTIONSfor the question:Read the information given below and answer...
Since, Prof. Das is one of the members. The two other members are professors and two are students.
According to the (iv) statement the two professors have to be Prof. Equbal and Prof. Chakravarty.
Now, let us analyze the options.
Prof. Equbal is not present in option A and option B hence first two options are wrong. Also according to statement (i) Prof. Ahuja and Sushil always go together so option C is incorrect.
Hence, option D is the correct answer.

Read the passage carefully and answer the question that follows.The most obvious aspect of the information explosion is the vast amount of information that is readily available to managers. There are two different dimensions to this information explosion. First, the information about the operations and performance of the organization that can now be tracked and relatively easily accessed would have been literally inconceivable just a decade ago. Second, the exponential growth of the internet affords access to information outside the organization to an extent and with an ease that defies the imagination. Instead of being constrained by the lack of needed information, the challenge has shifted to identify what is relevant from an overwhelming mass of available data.Within the organization, the integrated systems offered by software such as SAP and Oracle allow senior managers to “drill down” to the smallest transaction. While it is patently absurd for the CEO of a major company to go down to the detail of a trivial accounting transaction in a small and remote sales office, this access to operational information can be and is being put to effective use by top management.The availability of information on the Internet now makes competitive and industry analyses very' much easier and considerably more effective. While seated in Mumbai it is possible to get a handle on the leadership wrangles at Marks and Spencer in London and their impact on the company's international expansion plans, the financial market problems and political instability in South East Asia, and the consequent trends in Brazilian imports of Indian- made garments.Q. What has been the effect of information explosion as far as organizations are concerned?

Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow:Humans are strange. For a global species, we’re not particularly genetically diverse, thanks in part to how our ancient roaming explorations caused “founder effects” and “bottleneck events” that restricted our ancestral gene pool. We also have a truly outsize impact on the planetary environment without much in the way of natural attrition to trim our influence.But the strangest thing of all is how we generate, exploit, and propagate information that is not encoded in our heritable genetic material, yet travels with us through time and space. Not only is much of that information represented in purely symbolic forms—alphabets, languages, binary codes—it is also represented in each brick, alloy, machine, and structure we build from the materials around us. Even the symbolic stuff is instantiated in some material form or the other, whether as ink on pages or electrical charges in nanoscale pieces of silicon. Altogether, this “dataome” has become an integral part of our existence. In fact, it may have always been an integral, and essential, part of our existence since our species of hominins became more and more distinct some 200,000 years ago.For example, let’s consider our planetary impact. Today we can look at our species’ energy use and see that of the roughly six to seven terawatts of average global electricity production, about 3 percent to 4 percent is gobbled up by our digital electronics, in computing, storing and moving information. That might not sound too bad—except the growth trend of our digitized informational world is such that it requires approximately 40 percent more power every year. Even allowing for improvements in computational efficiency and power generation, this points to a world in some 20 years where all of the energy we currently generate in electricity will be consumed by digital electronics alone.And that’s just one facet of the energy demands of the human dataome. We still print onto paper, and the energy cost of a single page is the equivalent of burning five grams of high-quality coal. Digital devices, from microprocessors to hard drives, are also extraordinarily demanding in terms of their production, owing to the deep repurposing of matter that is required. We literally fight against the second law of thermodynamics to forge these exquisitely ordered, restricted, low-entropy structures out of raw materials that are decidedly high-entropy in their messy natural states. It is hard to see where this informational tsunami slows or ends.Our dataome looks like a distinct, although entirely symbiotic phenomenon. Homo sapiens arguably only exists as a truly unique species because of our coevolution with a wealth of externalized information; starting from languages held only in neuronal structures through many generations, to our tools and abstractions on pottery and cave walls, all the way to today’s online world.But symbiosis implies that all parties have their own interests to consider as well. Seeing ourselves this way opens the door to asking whether we’re calling all the shots. After all, in a gene-centered view of biology, all living things are simply temporary vehicles for the propagation and survival of information. In that sense the dataome is no different, and exactly how information survives is less important than the fact that it can do so. Once that information and its algorithmic underpinnings are in place in the world, it will keep going forever if it can.Q.According to the author, which of the following reason makes humans a truly unique species?
