The blood sugar concentration or blood glucose level is the amount of glucose (sugar) present in the blood of a human or animal. The body naturally tightly regulates blood glucose levels as a part of metabolic homeostasis. Glucose is the primary source of energy for the body's cells, and blood lipids (in the form of fats and oils) are primarily a compact energy store. The mean normal blood glucose level in humans is about 4 mM (4 mmolit, or 72 mg/dL, i.e. milligrams/ deciliter); however, this level fluctuates throughout the day.

Average exports of the three Companies X, Y and Z in 1993

Average exports of the three Companies X, Y and Z in 1998

After 27 days, food left = 4 × 200 = 800 soldier days worth of food. Since, now there are only 80
soldiers, this food would last for 800/80 = 10 days. Number of extra days for which the food lasts
= 10 – 4 = 6 days.

26 + (34 * 43) – 96 + 69 = 1461

So Option B is correct

54679 + 5982 + 32614 = 93275
312 * 69 = 21528
93275 – 21528 = 71747

So Option B is correct

LCM*HCF = a*b
840*84 = 168*b, b = 420

Answer – b) losses 4% Explanation : let cost price = 100 so, marked price = 120 now discount of 20% is given, so sp = 120*80/100 = 96 so % loss = (4/100)*100 = 4 percent

Radius of cylindrical pipe (r) = 5/2 meters
Flow rate = 20 m/min
Diameter of conical vessel = 80 meters
Depth of the vessel (h) = 48 meters
According to the question,
Volume of the chemical flow through the pipe in one minute,

[here, h = 20 m]
= 125π m³
Volume of conical vessel,

= 25,600 m³
Therefore, time taken
 

Average exports = (500 + 750 + 1000 + 1200 + 1100 + 900 + 1300)/7

∴ Average Exports from years Y1 to Y7 = 6750/7 = 964.28

Calculations:

The articles sold by company A in 2014 = 1,59,000

The articles sold by company B in 2014 = 1,48,000

Difference between articles sold by company A and company B in 2014 = 1,59,000 – 1,48,000 = 11,000

According to the question,

The number of articles sold by company B in 2015 = 11,000 × 178/100 = 19,580

Decrease in numbers = 1,48,000 – 19,580 = 1,28,420 

Decrease % = (1,28,420/1,48,000) × 100 = 86.77% ≈ 87% 

∴ The articles sold by company B in 2015 has decreased by approx 87% from previous year.

• Ingredient: In the context of the sentence, the word "ingredient" fits best in Blank no. 10. It refers to a necessary component or element, which is crucial for developing agriculture. It emphasizes the importance of irrigation as a key element in agricultural development.

This sentence is comparative. X does more of A than Y does of B. What is the X? The United States. What is the Y? North Korea. The simplest structure of an English sentence is to start with the subject and the verb. D start in this fashion. A and C are passive. The use of ‘they’ in B is incorrect as it is unclear to what ‘they’ refers. Choice D is the correct answer.

According to the given context of the sentence, it is regarding the fact that the delivery partners need to be aware of the practical nature of the job and they join the workforce once they accept the same. That is why it is made a point to them to understand what they have to do and then only they are allowed to enter the workforce. Among the given options, the words in Option D give us the correct pair of words that will fit in the given blanks. Other words do not fit in the blanks and can be eliminated.

This makes Option D the correct choice among the given options.

There are two possible sentences to start the paragraph: A and C. Of these, A, which states that the metric system was created during the French Revolution, is more general. C states the reason behind the creation of the system and makes a reference to 'the old regime'. This makes sense only when C follows A. So, A is the first sentence of the paragraph.

D starts off with 'at this time'. The time referred to here is the time of the French Revolution. The only sentence which talks of the time of the French Revolution is A. So, D follows immediately after A. During the time of the French revolution, the ideology of liberty, equality, fraternity was embraced by scientists as well.

D leads on to C, which explains how scientists with the new ideology tried to create a metric system to liberate the common man from the inconsistent weights and measures of the old regime.

Now, B starts off stating that 'it' was a utopian project. Clearly, the pronoun 'it' here refers to the metric system. The only sentence with the metric system as the subject is C. B adds to C, explaining why the creators of the metric system wanted that a shared system of weights and measures: they thought that it would allow for the free exchange of goods and information. So, B follows C.

So, ADCB is the right order.

The question is " Arrange the sentences in the correct order "
The order is ADCB

Hence, the answer is ADCB
Choice B is the correct answer.

Refer to, "During the meeting, the BIS pointed out that the initial focus will be the 12 champion services sectors identified by the government."

It means that statement I is incorrect since the initial focus will be on 12 sectors belonging to the service sector and these sectors have also been identified by the Government as the champion sectors of the economy. The focus will not be on all the sectors of the economy.

Refer to, "The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) standards is set to formulate a framework for quality services that should be provided to consumers and also talk about the benchmarks to deal with consumer complaints or after sales service in an effort to ensure quality in the services sector."

It implies that the BIS wants to develop a framework in which there will be main focus on the consumer complaints regarding the after sales service concerning any product. The customers should not complaint about the servicing after buying any product, this is the main objective of the new framework. This makes Statement II correct.

According to the above lines, it is also true that the new standardization drive is meant to create a benchmark for service sector in after sales service of any product. This makes Statement III also correct.

This makes option A the right choice among the given options.

Refer to, “Service sector is one of the key sectors of the Indian economy with a huge potential to grow into one of the largest markets of the world. Standards can play a major facilitative role in this regard. It is important that the standardization needs and priorities of the sector are determined,” a senior official said.”

It is very clear from the above lines that the government is of the view that there should be standardization in the sector so that this fastest growing sector can be developed properly in the country. Among the given options, statement A may be true but only because a sector is contributing to GDP cannot be considered for the sole ground for initiating standardization drive in this sector. Statements C and D are irrelevant in the context of the passage.

Hence, Option B is the right choice among the given options.
