Biology Zoology Botany QUESTION #10817

Besides T3 and T4, the thyroid gland also secretes which additional hormone?

Somatostatin
Parathyroid hormone
Calcitonin✔️
Thyroglobulin

Correct Answer Logic:

In addition to thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), the thyroid gland secretes calcitonin from its parafollicular C-cells. Calcitonin lowers blood calcium by inhibiting osteoclast activity and promoting calcium deposition in bone. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is secreted by the separate parathyroid glands (not the thyroid); somatostatin is from the hypothalamus/pancreas; thyroglobulin is a precursor protein, not a secreted hormone.

Question 22

GIS deals with which kind of data?

Numeric data
Binary data
Spatial data✔️
None of these

Correct Answer Logic:

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) primarily deal with spatial data — data that has a geographic or locational component (coordinates, geometry, topology). GIS is designed to capture, store, manage, analyze, and visualize spatially referenced data. While numeric and binary data exist within GIS, the defining characteristic is the spatial nature of the data.

Education QUESTION #10912

Question 26

The preferred and most celebrated method of teaching advocated by naturalist educators is:

Discussion
Study tours
Role playing
Play way✔️

Correct Answer Logic:

The play way method is the cornerstone of naturalist educational philosophy. Naturalists (Rousseau, Froebel, Pestalozzi, Montessori) believe children learn best through natural, spontaneous, self-directed play rather than formal instruction. Play is the child's natural activity, and learning occurs most authentically when embedded in play. Froebel's kindergarten and Montessori's materials both exemplify the play-way approach to teaching young learners in harmony with nature.

Question 34

Linking of Ca²⁺ with calmodulin activates which enzyme in the contraction cycle of smooth muscles?

MLC kinase✔️
MLC phosphorylase
MHC kinase
MHC phosphorylase

Correct Answer Logic:

In smooth muscle, Ca²⁺ binds calmodulin, forming the Ca²⁺-calmodulin complex that activates Myosin Light Chain (MLC) kinase. MLC kinase phosphorylates the regulatory light chains of myosin, enabling cross-bridge cycling and muscle contraction. This differs from skeletal muscle, where Ca²⁺ acts via troponin-tropomyosin on thin filaments. MLC phosphorylation is the key regulatory step in smooth muscle contraction.

Chemistry QUESTION #7529

Question 35

What mass of sucrose (C$_{12}$H$_{22}$O$_{11}$, molar mass = 342 g mol$^{-1}$) is required to prepare 2 L of a 0.1 M aqueous solution?

136.8 g
17.1 g
68.4 g✔️
34.2 g

Correct Answer Logic:

Moles needed $= M \times V = 0.1\ \text{mol/L} \times 2\ \text{L} = 0.2\ \text{mol}$

Mass $= 0.2 \times 342 = \mathbf{68.4\ \text{g}}$

Law QUESTION #9492

Question 36

A mortgagee bank files a suit for sale of the mortgaged property. The bank is the plaintiff. It applies for a temporary injunction restraining the mortgagor B from creating any third-party interest in the property pending suit. B argues an injunction cannot be granted in favour of the plaintiff since the suit itself seeks sale of the property. Is B's argument sound?

No; a Court has power to grant interim injunctions to preserve the subject-matter of the suit and protect the plaintiff's interest pending final adjudication, regardless of the relief ultimately sought✔️
No; but the injunction requires the deposit of security by the plaintiff
Yes; interim injunctions are only for defendants
Yes; a plaintiff seeking sale cannot simultaneously obtain an injunction

Correct Answer Logic:

Under Order XXXIX CPC, a Court can grant a temporary injunction in any suit at any stage if the case falls within the prescribed conditions. The relief finally sought does not preclude interim relief. Preserving the mortgaged property from further encumbrance pending a suit for sale is a classic ground for interim injunction.
