Question Discussion & Solution

The correct answer is Open Cast Mining.

• Open Cast Mining is the process under which minerals are mined near the earth's surface.

Key Points

• Opencast mining is the process that involves the removal of ore from seams relatively near the surface by means of an open-pit.
• These mines occupy a large area of land for excavation of the ore and disposal of the overburden.

Additional Information

• Drilling is a cutting process which uses a drill bit to cut a hole of circular cross-section in solid materials or ground.
• Quarrying is the process of removing rock, sand, gravel or minerals from the ground in order to use them to produce materials for construction or other uses.
• Shaft mining is the process where miners dig straight down until they reach their desired depth. 

The correct answer is Digital Camera.

Key Points

• An input device is any hardware device that sends data to a computer, allowing us to interact with and control it.
• For instance- Keyboard, Mouse, Joy Stick, Light pen, Track Ball, Scanner, Graphic Tablet, Microphone.
• A digital camera is an input device that captures images (and sometimes video) digitally.
• Digital cameras use an image sensor chip to capture the image.
• However, it can also be used as an output device. The digital camera can send pictures to our computer.
• An output device is any hardware device used to send data from a computer to another device or user.
• Examples of output devices are-
  • monitors and projectors (video), headphones and speakers (audio), or printers and plotters (physical reproduction in the form of text or graphics).

Concept:

• Food comprises constituents like proteins, carbohydrates, fats and supplementary substances such as minerals, vitamins and water that are vital for life.
• These constituents are known as nutrients. For proper functioning of our body, we need to consume bodybuilding foods (e.g. milk, meat, poultry, fish, eggs, pulses, groundnuts); energy-giving foods (e.g. cereals, sugar, roots, fats and oils); and protective foods (e.g. vegetables, fruits).

Explanation:

• Carbohydrates are the main source of energy for our body.
• Carbohydrates are of two types – simple and complex.
• Simple carbohydrates - These are quick-energy foods, e.g. sugar. Sources of simple carbohydrates are natural fruits, milk and milk products, and vegetables including potatoes and carrots.
• Complex carbohydrates - These are better sources of energy than sugar since they are released slowly. Sources of complex carbohydrates are bread, cereals (rice, wheat, bajra, corn, barley, ragi, sorghum, millets etc.),

Gram is not a source of carbohydrate, it is a source of protein.

Additional Information

Proteins:

• proteins are obtained from the animal as well as vegetable sources. Proteins of animal origin are found in milk, eggs, cheese, fish and meat.
• Proteins from these sources contain all the essential amino acids (EAA) in adequate amounts.
• Vegetable proteins are found in pulses (legumes), cereals, beans, nuts, oilseeds, etc

Concept:

A functional dependency is a constraint between two sets of attributes from the database.

Explanation:

In general form, a functional dependency denoted by X -> Y between two sets of attributes X and Y that are subsets of R specifies a constraint on the possible tuples that can form a relation state r of R.

The constraint is that for any two tuples T₁ and T₂ in r that have T₁[X] = T₂[Y], they must also have T₁[Y]

= T₂[Y]. It means that values of Y component of a tuple in r depend on or are determined by the value of X component.

If a relation R contains attributes (X and Y). Then X -> Y is a functional dependency. It means X functionally determines Y in R if and only if two tuples agree on their X value, they must necessarily agree on their Y value.
