Answer : 4. "1, 2, 6"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 1, 2, 6 Explanation: 4 is father of 1 and grandfather of 6. So, 1 is father of 6. Thus, 4 and 1 are the two fathers. 3 is the sister of 6. So, 3 is the daughter of 1. Since there is only one mother, it is evident that 5 is the wife of 1 and hence the mother of 3 and 6. So, 2 is brother of 1. There are three brothers. So, 6 is the brother of 3. Hence, 2 and 1 are brothers. 6 is the brother of 3. So, three brothers are 1, 2, 6.

Answer : 1. "copper(II) hydroxide"
Explanation :
Answer: A) copper(II) hydroxide Explanation: Sodium chloride: The solubility rules tell you that all halides are soluble with the exception of those formed with siver, mercury, and lead ions. Since this is not the case here, sodium chloride will be soluble. Silver nitrate: It is soluble because all nitrates are soluble, without exception. Potassium sulfate: It is soluble because all sulfates are soluble with the exception of those formed with silver, calcium, barium, mercury, lead, and strontium ions. Copper (II) hydroxyde: It is insoluble because all hydroxides are insoluble with the exception of those formed with alkali metal ions and barium.
Q: The respective ratio between the speed of a bike, a van and lorry is 3 : 5 : 2. The speed of the van is 250 percent of the speed of the lorry which covers 360 km in 12 hours. What is the average speed of the bike and the van together? 1907 05b5cc6b2e4d2b4197774d397

Answer : 1. "60 kmph"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 60 kmph Explanation: Speed of lorry = 36012 = 30 kmph Speed of van =250100 x 30 = 75 kmph Speed of bike = 35 x 75 = 45 kmph Therefore, now required average speed of bike and van = 75 + 452= 60 kmph.
Q: The average age of A and B, 2 years ago was 26. If the age of A, 5 years hence is 40 yrs, and B is 5 years younger to C, then find the difference between the age of A and C? 1906 05b5cc6bbe4d2b4197774d86d

Answer : 2. "9 yrs"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 9 yrs Explanation: Let the present ages of A and B be 'x' and 'y' respectively From the given data, [(x-2) + (y-2)]/2 = 26 => x+y = 56 But given the age of A, 5 years hence is 40 yrs => present age of A = 40 - 5 = 35 yrs => x = 35 => y = 56 - 35 = 21 => Age of B = 21 yrs Given B is 5 years younger to C, => Age of C = 21 + 5 = 26 yrs => Required Difference between ages of A and C = 35 - 26 = 9 yrs.

Answer : 1. "Parvovirus B19 causes severe anemia because it preferentially infects erythrocyte precursors"
Explanation :
Answer: A) Parvovirus B19 causes severe anemia because it preferentially infects erythrocyte precursors Explanation: Parvovirus B19 causes severe anemia because it preferentially infects erythrocyte precursors. a. Parvovirus B19 binds preferentially to the erythrocyte blood group P antigen on erythroid precursor cells. Answers B, C, D are incorrect: b. after entry the single-stranded viral DNA genome is transported to the cell nucleus where the host DNA polymerase synthesizes the complimentary DNA strand. c. Parvovirus B19 infection can be diagnosed by direct detection of viral DNA not RNA. d. the fetus of a seropositive mother is protected from infection by maternal circulating antibodies.
Q: Two pipes A and B can fill a tank in 16 hrs and 12 hrs respectively. The capacity of the tank is 240 liters. Both the pipes are opened simultaneously and closed after 2 hrs. How much more water need to fill the tank? 1904 05b5cc6bbe4d2b4197774d802

Answer : 2. "170 lit"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 170 lit Explanation: Given A alone can fill the tank of capacity 240 lit in 16 hrs. => A can fill in 1 hr = 240/16 = 15 lit => B alone can fill the tank of capacity 240 lit in 12 hrs. => B can fill in 1 hr = 240/12 = 20 lit Now, (A + B) in 1 hr = 15 + 20 = 35 lit But they are opened for 2 hrs => 2 x 35 = 70 lit rae filled Remaining water to be filled in tank of 240 lit = 240 - 70 = 170 lit.
