Question Discussion & Solution

CONCEPT:

• The battery has two terminals positive and negative and its positive terminal is the cathode and its negative terminal is the anode.
  • It works on the principle of Electrochemical Reaction.
  • Italian physicist Alessandro Volta built and described the first electrochemical battery, the voltaic pile, in the year 1800.
  • The lead-acid batteries used in vehicles and lithium-ion batteries used for portable electronics such as laptops and mobile phones.

EXPLANATION:

• A battery converts chemical energy into electrical energy. So option 3 is correct.

The correct answer is Register, Cache, RAM, Hard disk.

• Register

• RAM 
  • RAM is a hardware element where the data being currently used is stored.
  • It is a volatile memory.
  • Two types of RAM are
    • Static RAM, or (SRAM) and
    • Dynamic RAM, or (DRAM).
• Register
  • A register holds instructions or data that the processor is working on or will be working on shortly.
  • They form part of the processor and are capable of holding only one item at a time.
• Cache 
  • Cache memory is an area in the computer where codes and instructions are stored.
• Hard disk
  • A hard disk drive is an electromechanical data storage device that stores and retrieves digital data using magnetic storage.

• There are four major storage levels on the computer:
  • Internal –
    • Processor registers and cache.
  • Main –
    • The system RAM and controller cards.
  • On-line mass storage –
    • Secondary storage.
  • Off-line bulk storage –
    • Tertiary and Off-line storage.

The correct answer is Vitamin A.

• Vitamin A causes Night Blindness.

Key Points

• Night blindness is a type of vision impairment also known as nyctalopia. People with night blindness experience poor vision at night.
• Vitamin was first invented by FG Hopkins.  However, the term vitamin was coined by C Funk. 
• Good sources of vitamin A include cheese, eggs oily fish.

Additional Information

• Vitamin B₁₂ deficiency may lead to a reduction in healthy red blood cells (anaemia). 
• Vitamin C is found in citrus fruits and vegetables.
  • Scurvy results from a deficiency of vitamin C in the diet.
• The signs and symptoms of vitamin D deficiency include Fatigue, Bone pain, muscle weakness, muscle aches, or muscle cramps.
  • Rickets is caused due to deficiency of vitamin D
• Vitamin E deficiency can cause nerve and muscle damage loss of body movement control, muscle weakness, and vision problems.

Explanation:

• Evolutionary biology: It is a field of science that deals with the study of evolutionary processes like natural selection, speciation & common descent that has led to the diversification of life on earth.
• Charles Darwin is known as the father of ''Evolutionary Biology''.
• Darwin proposed a theory of evolution called natural selection in the year 1859. According to it those populations which are a better fit (reproductively fit) in an environment will be selected by nature and will survive more.
• Charles Darwin wrote a book named ''The origin of species'' which is considered to be the foundation of evolutionary biology.

Additional Information 

• Herbert Spencer- He Was best known for the introduction and application of evolutionary theory to philosophy, psychology, and social sciences
• The famous phrase 'Survival of the fittest' to mean Natural Selection was coined by Herbert Spencer. He originated this phrase after the publication of famous biologist Charles Darwin’s book ‘Origin of Species’ which talked about ‘Natural Selection’.
• Julian Huxley was an English biologist, philosopher, educator, and author who greatly influenced the modern development of embryology, systematics, and studies of behaviour and evolution.
• Stanley Miller along with H.C. Urey provided experimental evidence of ''chemical evolution''

Madrid is the capital city of Spain. Similarly, Moscow is the capital city of Russia.
