TRUMP s’est toujours moqué de ses électeurs et il n’en a jamais attention C’est son égoïsme narcissique il s’en fout éperdument Mais TRUMP est protégé et la plupart de commentaires à son sujet sur les finances le travail et autres sujets budgétaires ne sont pas le fruit de son géni que des personnes de race blanche s’active à en faire des textes par milliers et totalement fausses On voit bien il veut se distinguer d’OBAMA fils d’esclave et ruine le budget des USA pour sa présidence avec faste et des milliards de dépenses insolentes comme jamais un autre chef d’états américain ne l’a fait ! Il est blanc et ne peux gouverner avec pauvreté selon sa psychologie maladive et budget étudié avec sagesse et union avec les principes de l’état fédéral de l’Amérique Si Barak OBAMA avait fait avec sa dame Michele OBAMA aurait loupé par exemple l’OBAMACARE le monde en aurait fait des grandes critiques durant 200 ans ! Ils n’ont pas envie de sortir de leur mémoire collective les blessures qu’ils croient pansées par TRUMP Les personnes qu’il abandonne depuis dans des nombreux cas sans aucune forme de courage pour s’implique de manière intelligence avec engagement et clarté ne sont que ses propres électeurs désabusés et tout le monde dans les USA ferme les yeux surtout que TRUMP est un président blanc qui succède à OBAMA noir de son état |

Amoghavarsha the Rashtrakuta ruler or Vishnuvardhana the Hoysala ruler The titles used by the Chola kings were Chakrvartigal or Chakravarti The royal household was run on an elaborate scale and royal patronage was lavish The political role of Purohita priest as known to northern Indian politics underwent a modification in the Chola system The Rajguru priest of the royal family of the Cholas became a confidant and confessor in addition to being the advisor in all matters temporal and sacred For further advice there was an assembly of officer whom the king would consultChola kingdom was divided into provinces mandalam their being generally eight or nine of these Each mandalam was divided into valanadus or districts These in turn were subdivided into groups of villages variously called kurram

significant difference between Chola administration and that of the Guptas However the nature of the village administration was certainly of a very different order The degree of autonomy at village level was something quiet remarkable for the times Chola officials participated in village affairs more as advisors and observers than as administratorsThe basic assumption in the type of village autonomy emerging at this period was that each village should be administered by the villagers themselves For the purpose a village assembly was formed and authority was vested in this assemblyThe general assemblies included most of the local residents and were of three categories: the ur consisted of the tax paying residents of an ordinary village the sabha was restricted to the Brahmans of the village or else was found exclusively in villages gifted to Brahmans and finally the nagaram was found more commonly in trade centers In some villages the ur and the sabha were found together Very large villages had two urs if this was more convenient for their functioning The working of these assemblies differed according to local conditions The ur was open to all male adults of the village but in affect the older members took a more prominent part some of them forming a small executive body for routine matters The sabha had the same system and in addition had the power to constitute

also known as Phosphor coating on the glass absorbs UV light amp protect from the UV raysVapour lamps : Fluorescent coating is often used in these bulbs to add brightnessA halogen lamp also known as a tungsten halogen quartz-halogen or quartz iodine lamp is an incandescent lamp consisting of a tungsten filament sealed into a compact transparent envelope that is filled with a mixture of an inert gas and a small amount of a halogensuch as iodine or bromine The combination of the halogen gas and the tungsten filament produces a halogen cycle chemical reaction which redeposits evaporated tungsten to the filament increasing its life and maintaining the clarity of the envelope For this to happen a halogen lamp must be operated at a higher envelope temperature 250° C 482° F1 than a standard vacuum incandescent lamp of similar power and operating life this also produces light with higher luminous efficacy and color temperature The small size of halogen lamps permits their use in compact optical systems for projectors and illumination The small glass envelope may be enclosed in a much larger outer glass bulb for a bigger package the outer jacket will be at a much lower and safer temperature and it also protects the hot bulb from harmful contamination and makes the bulb mechanically more similar to a conventional lamp that it might replaceStandard and halogen incandescent bulbs are much

negative carbon dioxide emissions2 BECSS works by involving the process of pyrogenic carbon capture and storage PyCCS or biocharSelect the correct answer using the codes given below :A Only 1B Only 2C Both are correctD Both are incorrectAns A-Bio-energy with carbon capture and storage BECCS is a potential greenhouse gas mitigation technology which produces negative carbon dioxide emissions by combining bioenergy energy from biomass use with geologic carbon capture and storage1 The concept of BECCS is drawn from the integration of trees and crops which extract carbon dioxide CO2 from the atmosphere as they grow the use of this biomass in processing industries or power plants and the application of carbon capture and storage via CO2injection into geological formations2 There are other non-BECCS forms of carbon dioxide removal and storage that include technologies such as biochar carbon dioxide air captureand biomass burial3 and enhanced weatheringAccording to a recent Biorecro report there is 550 000 tonnes CO2/year in total BECCS capacity currently operating divided between three different facilities as of January 2012In the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change IPCC BECCS was indicated as a key technology for reaching low carbon dioxide atmospheric concentration targets8 The negative emissions that can be produced by BECCS has been estimated by the Royal Society to be equivalent to a 50 to 150 ppmdecrease in global atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations9 and according to the International Energy Agency the BLUE map climate change mitigation scenario calls for more than 2 gigatonnes of negative CO2 emissions per year with BECCS in 205010 According to Stanford University 10 gigatonnes is achievable by this dateAccording to the OECD Achieving lower concentration targets 450 ppm depends significantly on the use of BECCS13An alternative to BECSS is pyrogenic carbon capture and storage PyCCS or biochar14

approved for human use Research is investigating the approach for viral bacterial and parasitic diseases in humans as well as for several cancersApplicationsNo DNA vaccines have been approved for human use in the United States Few experimental trials have evoked a response strong enough to protect against disease and the technique’s usefulness remains to be proven in humans A veterinary DNA vaccine to protect horses from West Nile virus has been approvedFirst-Generation Vaccines Attenuated and inactivated vaccines are identified in the first generation which use a primary method in their production Attenuated pathogens full organisms or inactivated bacterial toxin which are effectively immunogenic are used in making these vaccines2nd Generation Vaccines:-The second generation vaccines were created in order to minimize the risks of having the pathogen revert to a dangerous formThe way these vaccines work is that they do not contain the whole organism but rather subunits Subunits may consist of the toxins that the pathogen create if they are bacterial Another example of subunit vaccines are those that only contain protein sections of the pathogen such as an acellular formA great example of a 2nd generation vaccine is DTaP The vaccine contains diptheria toxoid tetanus toxoid pertussis toxoid as well as the acellular version of pertussisAs with the issues with the 1st

With reference to the Price Deficiency Payment Scheme consider the following statements :1 It is proposed to cover all the oil seeds for which minimum support price is notified2 It does not involve any physical procurement of the crops3 All the payments will be done directly into registered bank account of the farmer Which of the statements given above is/are correct A Only 2B 2 amp 3C 1 amp 2D 123Ans DThe Niti Aayog has released a three-year agenda for the Centre Of the several things it has touched upon one is agriculture with a focus on doubling farmers’ income The think-tank has recommended reforms in the APMC Act and tenancy laws and tweaks to the eNAM electronic National Agriculture Market It has also suggested ‘Price Deficiency Payment’ system to address the gaps in Minimum Support Price MSP based procurement of cropsWhat is itUnder Price Deficiency Payment farmers are proposed to be compensated for the difference between the government-announced MSPs for select crops and their actual market prices For crops such as rice and wheat where it is effective now MSP announcements will continue For other targeted crops price deficiency payments will be made However it has to be noted that there may be a cap on the extent to which the Centre will bridge the gap between MSP and market priceNiti Aayog has said that the farmer may be entitled to the difference up to say 10 per cent To avail this benefit eachfarmer would have to register with the nearest APMC mandi and report the total area sown The subsidy may be paid via Direct Benefit Transfer DBT into the farmer’s Aadhaar-linked bank accountWhy is it importantThe key benefit from the price deficiency payment is that it will reduce the need for the government to actually procure food crops transport and store them and then dispose of them under PDS The difference between the support and market prices can instead simply be paid in cash to the farmer Price deficiency payment can also keep India’s bill on food subsidies under check believes Niti Aayog India’s food subsidy schemes have frequently come under the WTO scanner Even in the meeting held in March this year there were questions raised on the minimum support price programmes for wheat sugarcane and pulses by the US EU and AustraliaThese countries see India’s procurement subsidies as trade-distorting In recent years the government has been

2 amp 3D 123Ans DCarbon SequestrationCarbon sequestration is the process involved in carbon capture and the long-term storage of atmospheric carbon dioxide1 Carbon sequestration involves long-term storage of carbon dioxide or other forms of carbon to mitigate or defer global warming It has been proposed as a way to slow the atmospheric and marine accumulation of greenhouse gases which are released by burning fossil fuels artificial capture and sequestration of industrially produced CO2 using subsurface saline aquifers reservoirs ocean water aging oil fields or other carbon sinksCarbon dioxide may be captured as a pure by-product in processes related to petroleum refining or from flue gases from power generation5 CO2 sequestration includes the storage part of carbon capture and storage which refers to large-scale artificial capture and sequestration of industrially produced CO2 using subsurface saline aquifers reservoirs ocean water aging oil fields or other carbon sinksBiosequestration or carbon sequestration through biological processes affects the global carbon cycle Examples include major climatic fluctuations such as the Azolla event which created the current Arctic climate Such processes created fossil fuels as well as clathrate and limestone By manipulating such processes geoengineers seek to enhance sequestrationPeat bogs are a very important carbon store Wetland soil is an important carbon sink 145 of the world’s soil carbon is found in wetlands while only 6 of the world’s land is composed of wetlandsOcean iron fertilization is an example of such a geoengineering technique23 Iron fertilization24 attempts to encourage phytoplankton growth which removes carbon from the atmosphere for at least a period of timeNatural iron fertilisation events eg deposition of iron-rich dust into ocean waters can enhance carbon sequestration The iron rich feces causes phytoplankton to grow and take up more carbon from the atmosphereWhen the phytoplankton dies some of it sinks to the deep ocean and takes the atmospheric carbon with it By reducing the abundance of sperm whales in the Southern Ocean whaling has resulted in an extra 200000 tonnes of carbon remaining in the atmosphere each year’Seaweed grows very fast and can theoretically be harvested and processed to generate biomethane via Anaerobic Digestion to generate electricity

role of Purohita priest as known to northern Indian politics underwent a modification in the Chola system The Rajguru priest of the royal family of the Cholas became a confidant and confessor in addition to being the advisor in all matters temporal and sacred For further advice there was an assembly of officer whom the king would consultChola kingdom was divided into provinces mandalam their being generally eight or nine of these Each mandalam was divided into valanadus or districts These in turn were subdivided into groups of villages variously called kurram nadu or kottam Occasionally a

residents and were of three categories: the ur consisted of the tax paying residents of an ordinary village the sabha was restricted to the Brahmans of the village or else was found exclusively in villages gifted to Brahmans and finally the nagaram was found more commonly in trade centers In some villages the ur and the sabha were found together Very large villages had two urs if this was more convenient for their functioning The working of these assemblies differed according to local conditions The ur was open to all male adults of the village but in affect the older members took a more

storage PyCCS or biocharSelect the correct answer using the codes given below :A Only 1B Only 2C Both are correctD Both are incorrectAns A-Bio-energy with carbon capture and storage BECCS is a potential greenhouse gas mitigation technology which produces negative carbon dioxide emissions by combining bioenergy energy from biomass use with geologic carbon capture and storage1 The concept of BECCS is drawn from the integration of trees and crops which extract carbon dioxide CO2 from the atmosphere as they grow the use of this biomass in processing industries or power plants and the application of carbon capture and storage via CO2injection into geological formations2 There are other non-BECCS forms of carbon dioxide removal and storage that include technologies such as biochar carbon dioxide air captureand biomass burial3 and enhanced weatheringAccording to a recent Biorecro report there is 550 000 tonnes CO2/year in total BECCS capacity currently operating divided between three different facilities as of January 2012In the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change IPCC BECCS was indicated as a key technology for reaching low carbon dioxide atmospheric concentration targets8 The negative emissions that can be produced by BECCS has been estimated by the Royal Society to be equivalent to a 50 to 150 ppmdecrease in global atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations9 and according to the International Energy Agency the BLUE map climate change mitigation scenario calls for more than 2 gigatonnes of negative CO2 emissions per year with BECCS in 205010 According to Stanford University 10 gigatonnes is achievable by this dateAccording to the OECD Achieving lower concentration targets 450 ppm depends significantly on the use of BECCS13An alternative to BECSS is pyrogenic carbon capture and storage PyCCS or biochar14 Which are superior in order to fix carbon in a more stable way: solid C for longer times Carbon dioxide

vaccines are available for veterinary use Currently no DNA vaccines have been approved for human use Research is investigating the approach for viral bacterial and parasitic diseases in humans as well as for several cancersApplicationsNo DNA vaccines have been approved for human use in the United States Few experimental trials have evoked a response strong enough to protect against disease and the technique’s usefulness remains to be proven in humans A veterinary DNA vaccine to protect horses from West Nile virus has been approvedFirst-Generation Vaccines Attenuated and inactivated vaccines are identified in the first generation which use a primary method in their production Attenuated pathogens full organisms or inactivated bacterial toxin which are effectively immunogenic are used in making these vaccines2nd Generation Vaccines:-The second generation vaccines were created in order to minimize the risks of having the pathogen revert to a dangerous formThe way these vaccines work is that they do not contain the whole organism but rather subunits Subunits may consist of the toxins that the pathogen create if they are bacterial Another example of subunit vaccines are those that only contain protein sections of the pathogen such as an acellular formA great example of a 2nd generation vaccine is DTaP The vaccine contains diptheria toxoid tetanus toxoid pertussis toxoid as well

the farmer Which of the statements given above is/are correct A Only 2B 2 amp 3C 1 amp 2D 123Ans DThe Niti Aayog has released a three-year agenda for the Centre Of the several things it has touched upon one is agriculture with a focus on doubling farmers’ income The think-tank has recommended reforms in the APMC Act and tenancy laws and tweaks to the eNAM electronic National Agriculture Market It has also suggested ‘Price Deficiency Payment’ system to address the gaps in Minimum Support Price MSP based procurement of cropsWhat is itUnder Price Deficiency Payment farmers are proposed to be compensated for the difference between the government-announced MSPs for select crops and their actual market prices For crops such as rice and wheat where it is effective now MSP announcements will continue For other targeted crops price deficiency payments will be made However it has to be noted that there may be a cap on the extent to which the Centre will bridge the gap between MSP and market priceNiti Aayog has said that the farmer may be entitled to the difference up to say 10 per cent To avail this benefit eachfarmer would have to register with the nearest APMC mandi and report the total area sown The subsidy may be paid via Direct Benefit Transfer DBT into the farmer’s Aadhaar-linked bank accountWhy is it importantThe key benefit from the price deficiency payment is that it will reduce the need for the government to actually procure food crops transport and store them and then dispose of them under PDS The difference between the support and market prices can instead simply be paid in cash to the farmer Price deficiency payment can also keep India’s bill on food subsidies under check believes Niti Aayog India’s food subsidy schemes have frequently come under the WTO scanner Even in the meeting held in March this year there were questions raised on the minimum support price programmes for wheat sugarcane and pulses by the US EU and AustraliaThese countries see

and the long-term storage of atmospheric carbon dioxide1 Carbon sequestration involves long-term storage of carbon dioxide or other forms of carbon to mitigate or defer global warming It has been proposed as a way to slow the atmospheric and marine accumulation of greenhouse gases which are released by burning fossil fuels artificial capture and sequestration of industrially produced CO2 using subsurface saline aquifers reservoirs ocean water aging oil fields or other carbon sinksCarbon dioxide may be captured as a pure by-product in processes related to petroleum refining or from flue gases from power generation5 CO2 sequestration includes the storage part of carbon capture and storage which refers to large-scale artificial capture and sequestration of industrially produced CO2 using subsurface saline aquifers reservoirs ocean water aging oil fields or other carbon sinksBiosequestration or carbon sequestration through biological processes affects the global carbon cycle Examples include major climatic fluctuations such as the Azolla event which created the current Arctic climate Such processes created fossil fuels as well as clathrate and limestone By manipulating such processes geoengineers seek to enhance sequestrationPeat bogs are a very important carbon store Wetland soil is an important carbon sink 145 of the world’s soil carbon is found in wetlands while only 6 of the world’s land is composed of wetlandsOcean iron fertilization is an example of such a geoengineering technique23 Iron fertilization24 attempts to encourage phytoplankton growth which removes carbon from the atmosphere for at least a period of timeNatural iron fertilisation events eg deposition of iron-rich dust into ocean waters can enhance carbon sequestration The iron rich feces causes phytoplankton to grow and take up more carbon from the atmosphereWhen the phytoplankton dies some of it sinks to the deep ocean and takes the atmospheric carbon with it By reducing the abundance of sperm whales in the Southern Ocean whaling has resulted in an extra 200000 tonnes of carbon remaining in the atmosphere each year’Seaweed grows very fast and can theoretically be harvested and processed to generate biomethane via Anaerobic Digestion to generate electricity via Cogeneration/CHP or as a replacement for natural gas Ideal species for such farming and conversion

the interest and/or installment of principal has remained ‘past due’ for a specified period of time In simple terms an asset is tagged as non performing when it ceases to generate income for the lenderA Non-performing asset NPA is defined as a credit facility in respect of which the interest and/or installment of Bond finance principal has remained ‘past due’ for a specified period of time NPA is used by financial institutions that refer to loans that are in jeopardy of default the so called NPL Once the borrower has failed to make interest or principal payments for 90 days the loan is considered to be a non-performing asset Non-performing assets are problematic for financial institutions since they depend on interest payments for income Troublesome pressure from the economy can lead to a sharp increase in NPLs and often results in massive write-downsAccordingly with effect from March 31 2004 a non-performing asset NPAis a loan or an advance where• Interest and/or installment of principal remain overdue for a period of more than 91 days in respect of a term loan• The account remains ‘out of order’ for a period of more than 90 days in respect of an Overdraft/Cash Credit

polystyrene is clear hard and rather brittle It is an inexpensive resin per unit weight It is a rather poor barrier to oxygen and water vapor and has a relatively low melting pointPolystyrene is one of the most widely used plastics the scale of its production being several million tonnes per yearPolystyrene can be naturally transparent but can be colored with colorants Uses include protective packaging such as packing peanuts and CD and DVD cases containers such as clamshells lids bottles trays tumblers disposable cutlery5 and in the making of modelsPolystyrene is very slow to biodegrade and is therefore a focus of controversy among environmentalists It is increasingly abundant as a form of litter in the outdoor environment particularly along shores and waterways especially in its foam form and also in increasing quantities in the Pacific OceanPolystyrene is chemically very inert being resistant to acids and bases but is easily dissolved by many chlorinated solvents and many aromatic hydrocarbon solvents Because of its resilience and inertness it is used for fabricating many objects of commerce It is attacked by many organic solvents which dissolve the polymer Foamed polystyrene is used for packaging chemicalsLike all organic compounds polystyrene burns to give carbon dioxide and water vapor Polystyrene being an aromatic hydrocarbon typically combusts incompletely as indicated by the sooty flamePolystyrene is generally non-biodegradable Polystyrene is commonly used in containers for food and drinks The styrene monomer from which polystyrene is made is a cancer suspect agentAnother Japanese study conducted on wild-type and AhR-null mice found that the styrene trimer which the authors detected in cooked polystyrene container-packed instant foods may increase

the regarded currency Since central bank money currently exists mainly in the form of electronic records electronic money rather than in the form of paper or coins physical money open market operations can be conducted by simply increasing or decreasing crediting or debiting the amount of electronic money that a bank has in its reserve account at the central bank Open market operationsAn open market operation OMO is an activity by a central bank to give or take liquidity in its currency to or from a bank or a group of banks The central bank can either buy or sell government bonds in the open market this is where the name was historically derived from or in what is now mostly the preferred solution enter into a repo or secured lending transaction with a commercial bank: the central bank gives the money as a deposit for a defined period and synchronously takes an eligible asset as collateral A central bank uses OMO as the primary means of implementing monetary policy The usual aim of open market operations is – aside from supplying commercial banks with liquidity and sometimes taking surplus liquidity from commercial banks – to manipulate the short-term interest rate and the supply of base money in an economy and thus indirectly control the total money supply in effect expanding money or contracting the money supply This involves meeting the demand of base money at the target interest rate by buying and selling government securities or other financial instruments Monetary targets such as inflation interest rates or exchange rates are used to guide this implementationClassical economic theory postulates a distinctive relationship between the supply of central bank money and short-term interest rates: like for a commodity a higher demand for central bank money would increase its price the interest rate When there is an increased demand for base money the central bank must act if it wishes to maintain the short-term interest rate It does this by increasing the supply of base money: it goes to the open market to buy a financial asset such as government bonds • Under a currency board open market operations would be used to achieve and maintain a fixed exchange rate with relation to some foreign currency• Under a gold standard notes would be convertible to gold and so open market operations could be used to keep the value of a fiat currency constant relative to goldThe two traditional type of OMO’s used by RBI:1 Outright purchase PEMO: Is outright buying or selling of government securities Permanent2 Repurchase agreement REPO: Is short term and are subject to repurchaseThe RBI brought together a Liquidity Adjustment Facility LAF It commenced in June 2000 and it was set up to oversee liquidity on a daily basis and to monitor market interest rates For the LAF two rates are set by the RBI: repo rate and reverse repo rate The repo rate is applicable while selling securities to RBI daily injection of liquidity while the reverse repo rate is applicable when banks buy back those securities daily absorption of liquidity Also these interest rates fixed by the RBI also help in determining other market interest rates on the recommendations of the Working Group of RBI on instruments of Sterilization December 2003 a new scheme known as the Market stabilization scheme MSS was set up The LAF and the OMO’s were dealing with day-to-day liquidity management whereas the MSS was set up to sterilize the liquidity absorption and make it more enduringAccording to this scheme the RBI issues additional T-bills and securities to absorb the liquidity And the money goes into the Market Stabilization scheme Account MSSA The RBI cannot use this account for paying any interest or discounts and cannot credit any premiums to this account The Government in collaboration with the RBI fixes a ceiling amount on the issue of these instrumentsFRAMED FROM WIKIPEDIAQ277 Which among the following species is/ are not the extinct species

Ishta linga in their left handSelect the correct answer using the codes given below :A Only 1B 2 amp 3C Only 2D 1 amp 3Ans BLingayatism is a distinct Shaivite religious tradition in India Its worship is centered on Hindu god Shiva as the universal god in the iconographic form of Ishtalinga The adherents of this faith are known as Lingayats Lingayatism was founded by the 12th-century philosopher and statesman Basava and spread by his followers called Sharanas1 Lingayatism emphasizes qualified monism and bhakti loving devotion to Shiva with philosophical foundations similar to those of the 11th–12th-century South Indian philosopher RamanujaThe terms Lingayatism and Veerashaivism have been used synonymously and Lingayats also referred to as is considered a Hindu sect25 but some Lingayats have sought legal recognition as a religion distinct from Hinduism26Lingayatism shares beliefs with Indian religions such as about reincarnation samsara and karmaContemporary Lingayatism is influential in South India especially in the state of Karnataka10 Today Lingayats along with Shaiva Siddhanta followers Tirunelveli Saiva Pillai Nadar Naths Pashupaths of Nepal Kapalikas and others constitute the Shaiva populationThe Lingayat iṣṭaliṅga is an oval-shaped emblem symbolising Parashiva the absolute reality and is worn on the body by a cord hung around the neckBasava is credited with founding Lingayatism and its secular practices2 He was a 12th-century Hindu philosopher statesman Kannada poet in the Shiva-focussed Bhakti movement and a social reformer during the reign of the Kalachuri-dynasty king Bijjala I in Karnataka IndiaBasavanna spread social awareness through his poetry popularly known as Vachanaas Basavanna rejected gender or social discrimination as well as some extant practices such as the wearing of sacred thread19 and replaced this with the ritual of wearing Ishtalinga necklace with an image of the Shiva LiṅgaLingayat scholars thrived in northern Karnataka during the centuries of rule by Vijayanagara Empire22 The Lingayats likely were a part of the reason why Vijayanagara succeeded in territorial expansion and in withstanding the Deccan Sultanate wars The Lingayat text Sunya sampadane grew out of the scholarly discussions in a Anubhava Mantap and according to Bill Aitken these were compiled at the Vijayanagara court during the reign of Praudha Deva RayaSimilarly the scripture of Lingayatism Basava Purana was completed in 1369 during the reign of Vijayanagara ruler Bukka Raya ILingayat Veerashaiva thinkers rejected the custodial hold of Brahmins over the Vedas and the shastras but they did not outright reject the Vedic knowledge2930 The 13th-century Telugu Virashaiva poet Palkuriki Somanatha author of Basava Purana – a scripture of Veerashaivas for example asserted Virashaivism fully conformed to the Vedas and the shastrasLingayatism teaches a path to an individual’s spiritual progress is viewed and describes it as a six-stage Satsthalasiddhanta This concept progressively evolves the individual starting with the phase of a devoteeShunya in a series of Kannada language texts is equated with the Virashaiva concept of the Supreme In particular the Shunya Sampadane texts present the ideas of Allama Prabhuin a form of dialogue where shunya is that void and distinctions which a spiritual journey seeks to fill and eliminate It is the described as state of union of one’s soul with the infinite Shiva the state of blissful moksha3This Lingayat concept is similar to shunya Brahma concept found in certain texts of Vaishnavism particularly in Odiya such as the poetic Panchasakhas It explains the Nirguna Brahman idea of Vedanta that is the eternal unchanging metaphysical reality as personified void However both in Lingayatism and various flavors of Vaishnavism such as Mahima Dharma the idea of Shunya is closer to the Hindu concept of metaphysical Brahman rather than to the Śūnyatā concept of Buddhism35 However there is some overlap such as in the works of Bhima BhoiThe Lingayats always wear the Ishtalinga held with a necklace2 The Istalinga is made up of light gray slate stone coated with fine durable thick black paste of cow dung ashes mixed with some suitable oil to withstand wear and tear Sometime it is made up of ashes mixed with clarified butter The coating is called Kanti coveringThe

freshwater basin ecosystems when present in high enough numbers some varieties may be noticeable as colored patches on the water surface due to the presence of chlorophyll within their cells and accessory pigments such as phycobiliproteins or xanthophylls in some species Phytoplankton are photosynthesizing microscopic organisms that inhabit the upper sunlit layer of almost all oceans and bodies of fresh water on Earth They are agents for primary production the creation of organic compounds from carbon dioxide dissolved in the water a process that sustains the aquatic food web In terms of numbers the most important groups of phytoplankton include the diatoms cyanobacteria and dinoflagellates although many other groups of algae are represented In oligotrophicoceanic regions such as the Sargasso Sea or the South Pacific Gyre phytoplankton is dominated by the small sized cells called picoplankton and nanoplankton also referred to as picoflagellates and nanoflagellates mostly composed of Synechococcus and picoeucaryotes such as Micromonas Phytoplankton are crucially dependent on minerals These are primarily macronutrients such as nitrate phosphate or silicic acid whose availability is governed by the balance between the so-called biological pump and upwelling of deep nutrient-rich waters However across large regions of the World Ocean such as the Southern Ocean phytoplankton are also limited by the lack of the micronutrient iron Phytoplankton depend on Vitamin B for survival Areas in the ocean have been identified as having a major lack of Vitamin B and correspondingly phytoplankton Phytoplankton absorb energy from the Sun and nutrients from the water to produce their own food In the process of photosynthesis phytoplankton release molecular oxygen O 2 into the water Phytoplankton is used as a foodstock for the production of rotifers49 which are in turn used to feed other organisms Phytoplankton is also used to feed many varieties of aquacultured

basin area Select the correct answer using the codes given below :A Only 1B Only 2C Both are correctD Both are incorrectAns B The lake receives water from an endorheic basin with 5700 square km catchment area It is not part of the Ganga river basin area and is geographically a separate land locked river basin The lake is actually an extensive saline wetland with water depths fluctuating from as few as 60 centimetres 24 in during the dry season to about 3 meters 10 ft after the monsoon season It occupies an area of 190 to 230 square kilometers based on the season It is an elliptically shaped lake 355 km long with a breadth varying between 3 km and 11 km It is located in Nagaur and Jaipur districts and it also borders the Ajmer district The circumference of the lake is 96 km surrounded on all sides by the Aravali hills The Sambhar lake basin is divided by a 51 km long dam made of sandstone It is India’s largest saline lake and is the source of most of Rajasthan’s salt production Sambhar has been designated as a Ramsar site recognized wetland of international importance because the wetland is a key wintering area for tens of thousands of flamingos and other birds that migrate from northern Asia The specialized algae and bacteria growing in the lake provide striking water colours and support the lake ecology that in turn sustains the migrating waterfowl There is other wildlife in the nearby forests where Nilgai move freely along with deer and foxes The salt NaCl concentration in this lake water differs with season The salt concentration in the pans Kyars

following is/are classified as Fungus 1 Molds2 Yeast3 Slime MoldsSelect the correct answer using the codes given below :A 1 amp 2B Only 2C 2 amp 3D 123Ans A Fungus is any member of the group of eukaryotic organisms that includes microorganisms such as yeasts and molds as well as the more familiar mushrooms These organisms are classified as a kingdom Fungi which is separate from the other eukaryotic life kingdoms of plants and animals A characteristic that places fungi in a different kingdom from plants bacteria and some protists is chitin in their cell walls Similar to animals fungi are heterotrophs they acquire their food by absorbing dissolved molecules typically by secreting digestive enzymes into their environment Fungi do not photosynthesise Fungi are the principal decomposers in ecological systems Like plants fungi often grow in soil and in the case of mushrooms form conspicuous fruit bodies which sometimes resemble plants such as mosses The fungi are now considered a separate kingdom distinct from both plants and animals With animals: Fungi lack chloroplasts and are heterotrophic organisms and so require preformed organic compounds as energy sources With plants: Fungi have a cell wall and vacuolesThey reproduce by both sexual and asexual means and like basal plant groups such as ferns and mosses produce spores Similar to mosses and algae fungi typically have haploid nuclei similar-looking organisms such as filamentous green algae grow by repeated cell division within a chain of cellsThere are also single-celled fungi yeasts that do not form hyphae and some fungi have both hyphal and yeast forms The fungal cell wall is composed of glucans and chitin while glucans are also found in plants and chitin in the exoskeleton of arthropods Most fungi lack an efficient system for the long-distance transport of water and nutrients such as the xylem and phloem in many plants To overcome this limitation some fungi such as Armillaria form rhizomorphswhich resemble and perform functions similar to the roots of plants Most food-spoilage molds most plant pathogenic fungi and the beer wine and bread yeasts water molds oomycetes and hyphochytrids both Stramenopiles were formerly classified in the kingdom Fungi in groups like Mastigomycotina Gymnomycota and Phycomycetes The slime molds were studied also as protozoans leading to a ambiregnal duplicated taxonomy Lichens occur in every ecosystem on all continents play a key role in soil formation and the initiation of biological succession154 and are prominent in some extreme environments including polar alpine and semiarid desert regionsThey are able to grow on inhospitable surfaces including bare soil rocks tree bark wood shells barnacles and leaves Certain types of cheeses require inoculation of milk curds with fungal species that impart a unique flavor and texture to the cheese Examples include the blue color in cheeses such as Stilton or Roquefort which are made by inoculation with Penicillium roqueforti Molds used in cheese production are non-toxic and are thus safe for human consumption Many mushroom species are poisonous to humans with toxicities ranging from slight digestive problems or allergic reactions as well as hallucinations to severe organ failures and death Fungi are used extensively to produce industrial chemicals like citric gluconic lactic and malic acids FRAMED FROM WIKIPEDIAQ224 Which among the following statements is/are true with respect to the Aligarh movement 1 The impact of Aligarh Movement was confined to the Northern India only2 The Aligarh Movement introduced a new trend in Arabic literature3 It aimed to establish a modern system of education for the Muslim population of British IndiaSelect the correct answer using the codes given below :A 2 amp 3B 1 amp 3C 1 amp 2D Only 3Ans D The Aligarh Movement is the movement to establish a modern system of education for the Muslim population of British India during the later decades of the 19th centuryThe movement′s name derives from the fact that its core and origins lay in the city of Aligarh in Northern India and in particular with the foundation of: the Muhammadan Anglo Oriental Collegiate SchoolThe founder of the original college and the other educational institutions that developed from it was Sir Syed Ahmad Khan He became the leading light of the wider Aligarh Movement It influenced a number of other contemporary movements to a great extent that it caused the emergence of other socio-religious movements during the 19th century The impact of Aligarh Movement was not confined to the Northern India only but its expansion could be seen on the other regions of the Indian sub-continent during the 20th century The movement was political in nature from the very beginningThe Deoband school was opposed to the movement as Aligarh Movement was pro British The Aligarh Movement introduced a new trend in Urdu literature Sir Syed Ahmad Khan and his association left the old style of writing in the Urdu language which was rhetorical and academic and started a simple style which helped Muslims to understand the main purpose of the movement Sir Syed Ahmed was the central figure behind this awakening FRAMED FROM NCERT HISTORYQ223 Consider the following :1 Poona Sarvajanik Sabha : Gopal Ganesh Agarkar2 Deccan Education Society : Bal Gangadhar Tilak3 Prarthana Samaj : Atmaran Pandurang Select the correct answer using the codes given below :A 1 amp 3B Only 2C 2 amp 3D Only 3Ans D Prarthana Samaj or Prayer Society in Sanskrit was a movement for religious and social reform in Bombay based on earlier reform movements Prarthana Samaj was founded by Atmaram Pandurang with the help of Keshav Chandra Sen in 1867 with an aim to make people believe in one God and worship only one God It became popular after Mahadev Govind Ranade joined The main reformers were the intellectuals who advocated reforms of the social system of the Hindus The precursor of the Prarthana Samaj in Mumbai was the Paramahamsa Sabha a secret society for the furtherance of liberal ideas by Ram Balkrishna Jaykar and others in Mumbai It was secret in order to avoid the wrath of the powerful and orthodox elements of society the primary focus of the Prarthana Samaj was on social and cultural reform Deccan Education Society : In 1880 Vishnushastri Chiplunkar and Bal Gangadhar Tilak established the New English School one of the first native-run schools offering Western education in Pune1 In 1884 they created the Deccan Education Society23 with Gopal Ganesh Agarkar Mahadev Ballal Namjoshi V S Apte V B Kelkar M S Gole and N K Dharap Soon afterwardsthey established Fergusson College with Tilak and Agharkar as early lecturers Poona Sarvajanik Sabha : It was

the following plants can be regarded as a haven for people with pollen allergies 1 Summer grass2 Oak3 ArizonaSelect the correct answer using the codes given below :A 1 amp 2B 2 amp 3C 1 amp 2D Only 3Ans D Pollen: Pollen itself is not the male gameteEach pollen grain contains vegetative non-reproductive cells only a single cell in most flowering plants but several in other seed plants and a generative reproductive cell In flowering plants the vegetative tube cell produces the pollen tube and the generative cell divides to form the two sperm cell Non-flowering seed plants eg pine trees are characteristically anemophilous Anemophilous flowering plants generally have inconspicuous flowers Entomophilous literally insect-loving plants produce pollen that is relatively heavy sticky and protein-rich for dispersal by insect pollinators attracted to their flowers Many insects and some mitesare specialized to feed on pollen and are called palynivores Anemophilous spring blooming plants such as oak birch hickory pecan and early summer grasses may also induce pollen allergies Most cultivated plants with showy flowers are entomophilous and do not cause pollen allergies Arizona was once regarded as a haven for people with pollen allergies although several ragweed species grow in the desert However as suburbs grew and people began establishing irrigated lawns and gardens more irritating species of ragweed gained a foothold and Arizona lost its claim of freedom from hay fever FRAMED FROM NCERT BIOLOGYQ221 Which among the following is/are correct with respect to the Micropropagation 1 It is the only viable method of regenerating genetically modified cells after protoplast fusion2 All the progeny plants are vulnerable to the same infectionsSelect the correct answer using the codes given below :A Only 1B Only 2C Both are correctD Both are incorrectAns C Micropropagation has a number of advantages over traditional plant propagation techniques: • The main advantage of micropropagation is the production of many plants that are clones of each other • Micropropagation can be used to produce disease-free plants • It can have an extraordinarily high fecundity rate producing thousands of propagules while conventional techniques might only produce a fraction of this number • It is the only viable method of regenerating genetically modified cells or cells after protoplast fusion • It is useful in multiplying plants which produce seeds in uneconomical amounts or when plants are sterile and do not produce viable seeds or when seed cannot be stored see recalcitrant seeds • Micropropagation often produces more robust plants leading to accelerated growth compared to similar plants produced by conventional methods – like seeds or cuttings • Some plants with very small seeds including most orchids are most reliably grown from seed in sterile culture • A greater number of plants can be produced per square meter and the propagules can be stored longer and in a smaller area Micropropagation is not always the perfect means of multiplying plants Conditions that limits its use include: • It is very expensive and can have a labour cost of more than 70 • A monoculture is produced after micropropagation leading to a lack of overall disease resilience as all progeny plants may be vulnerable to the same infections • An infected plant sample can produce infected progeny This is uncommon as the stock plants are carefully screened and vetted to prevent culturing plants infected with virus or fungus • Not all plants can be successfully tissue cultured often because the proper medium for growth is not known or the plants produce secondary metabolic chemicals that stunt or kill the explant • Sometimes plants or cultivars do not come true to type after being tissue cultured This is often dependent on the type of explant material utilized during the initiation phase or the result of the age of the cell or propagule line Some plants are very difficult to disinfect of fungal organism FRAMED FROM NCERT SCIENCEQ220 Which among the following is/are the features that characterizes the Pioneer species 1 Most of them are hardy species with

sites road cuttings and verges cultivated lands – Buddleia davidii Nettlesclarification needed Tagetes minuta Bidens pilosa Argemone mexicana • Bare clay – Orchids • Mountains – Lichens Pioneer species are hardy species which are the first to colonize previously disrupted or damaged ecosystems beginning a chain of ecological succession that ultimately leads to a more biodiverse steady-state ecosystem Since some uncolonized land may have thin poor quality soils with few nutrients pioneer species are often hardy plants with adaptations such as long roots root nodes containing nitrogen-fixing bacteria and leaves that employ transpiration They are often photosynthetic plants as no other source of energy such as other species except light energy is often available in the early stages of succession thus making it less likely for a pioneer species to be non-photosynthetic The plants that are often pioneer species also tend to be wind-pollinated rather than insect-pollinated Pioneering fauna will colonize an area only after flora and fungi have inhabited the area Soil fauna ranging from microscopic protists to larger invertebrates have a role in soil formation and nutrient cycling Bacteria and fungi are the most important groups in the breakdown of organic detritus left by primary producing plants such as skeletal soil moss and algae Though vertebrates in general would not be considered pioneer species there are exceptions Pioneer species can also be found in secondary succession such as an established ecosystem being reduced by an event such as: a forest fire deforestation or clearing quickly colonizing open spaces which previously supported vegetation Common examples of the plants in such areas include • Raspberry – Rubus spp • Heaths – Ericaceae spp • Graminoids forbs and wildflowers – native introduced and invasive species: such as fire dependent seed cone and resprouter chaparral genera FRAMED FROM WikipediaQ219 Which

:A Only 1B 2 amp 3C 123D 1 amp 3Ans C CAM photosynthesis is also found in aquatic species in at least 4 genera including: Isoetes Crassula Littorella Sagittaria and possibly Vallisneriabeing found in a variety of species eg Isoetes howellii Crassula aquatica These plants follow the same nocturnal acid accumulation and daytime deacidification as terrestrial CAM speciesHowever the reason for CAM in aquatic plants is not due to a lack of available water but a limited supply of CO2CO2 is limited due to slow diffusion in water 10000x slower than in air The problem is especially acute under acid pH where the only inorganic carbon species present is CO2 with no available bicarbonate or carbonate supply Aquatic CAM plants capture carbon at night when it is abundant due to a lack of competition from other photosynthetic organisms This also results in lowered photorespiration due to less photosynthetically generated oxygen Aquatic CAM is most marked in the summer months when there is increased competition for CO2 compared to the winter months However in the winter months CAM still has a significant role The majority of plants possessing CAM are either epiphytes eg orchids bromeliads or succulent xerophytes eg cacti cactoid Euphorbias but CAM is also foundin hemiepiphytes eg Clusia lithophytes eg Sedum Sempervivum terrestrial bromeliads wetland plants eg Isoetes Crassula Tillaea Lobelia and in one halophyte Mesembryanthemum crystallinum one non-succulent terrestrial plant Dodonaea viscosa and one mangrove associate Sesuvium portulacastrum Plants which are able to switch between different methods of carbon fixation include Portulacaria afra better known as Dwarf Jade Plant which normally uses C3 fixation but can use CAM if it is drought-stressed and Portulaca oleracea better known as Purslane which normally uses C4 fixation but is also able to switch to CAM when drought-stressed It is found in quillworts relatives of club mosses in ferns and in Gnetopsida but the great majority of plants using CAM are angiosperms flowering plants The C4 pathway bears resemblance to CAM both act to concentrate CO2 around RuBisCO thereby increasing its efficiency CAM concentrates it temporally providing CO2 during the day and not at night when respiration is the dominant reaction C4 plants in contrast concentrate CO2 spatially with a RuBisCO reaction centre in a bundle sheath cell being inundated with CO2 Due to the inactivity required by the CAM mechanism C4 carbon fixation has a greater efficiency in terms of PGA synthesis The most important benefit of CAM to the plant is the ability to leave most leaf stomata closed during the dayPlants employing CAM are most common in arid environments where water comes at a premium Being able to keep stomata closed during the hottest and driest part of the day reduces the loss of water through evapotranspiration allowing such plants to grow in environments that would otherwise be far too dry Plants using only C3 carbon fixation for example lose 97 of the water they uptake through the roots to transpiration – a high cost avoided by plants able to employ CAM FRAMED FROM WIKIPEDIAQ208 Pink Bollworm amp cry toxins are associated with which of the following A Transgenic seedsB Bt cottonC Cisgenic organismsD Bt BrinjalAns B Bt cotton is ineffective against many cotton pests such as plant bugs stink bugs and aphids depending on circumstances it may be desirable to use insecticides in prevention The gene coding for Bt toxin has been inserted into cotton as a transgene causing it to produce this natural insecticide in its tissues In many regions the main pests in commercial cotton are lepidopteran larvae which are killed by the Bt protein in the genetically modified cotton they eat This eliminates the need to use large amounts of broad-spectrum insecticides to kill lepidopteran pests some of which have developed pyrethroidresistance This spares natural insect predators in the farm ecology and further contributes to noninsecticide pest management The important advantages of Bt cotton are briefly : • Increases yield of cotton due to effective control of three types of bollworms viz American Spotted and Pink bollworms • Insects belonged to Lepidoptera Bollworms are sensitive to crystalline endotoxic protein produced by Bt gene which in turn protects cotton from bollworms • Reduction in insecticide use in the cultivation of Bt cotton in which bollworms are major pests • Potential reduction in the cost of cultivation depending on seed cost versus insecticide costs • Reduction in environmental pollution by the use of insecticides • Bt cotton exhibit genetic resistance or inbuilt resistance which is a permanent type of resistance and not affected by environmental factors Thus protects crop from bollworms • Bt cotton is ecofriendly and does not have adverse effect on parasites predators beneficial insecticides and organisms present in soil • It promotes multiplication of parasites and predators which help in controlling the bollworms by feeding on larvae and eggs of bollworm • No health hazards due to rare use of insecticides particularly

appearing during the later part of the Renaissance Its characteristics include the pointed arch the ribbed vault which evolved from the joint vaulting of romanesque architecture and the flying buttress Gothic architecture is most familiar as the architecture of many of the great cathedrals abbeys and churches of Europe It is also the architecture of many castles palaces town halls guild halls universities and to a less prominent extent private dwellings such as dorms and rooms It is in the great churches and cathedrals and in a number of civic buildings that the Gothic style was

internal resourcesC Government’s expenditure on excess of revenue which causes a shortage in the budget therby making the government to finance its plans by borrowing D Difference of the total expenditure amp income from all the sourcesAns C Deficit spending is the amount by which spending exceeds revenue over a particular period of time also called simply deficit or budget deficit the opposite of budget surplus When the outlay of a government ie the total of its purchases of goods and services transfers in grants to individuals and corporations and its net interest payments exceeds its tax revenues the government budget is said to be in deficit government spending in excess of tax receipts is known as deficit spending Governments usually issue bonds to match their deficits They can be bought by its Central Bank through open market operations Otherwise the debt issuance can increase the level of i public debt ii private sector net worth iii debt service interest payments and iv interest rates Deficit spending may however be consistent with public debt remaining stable as a proportion of GDP depending on the level of GDP growth The opposite of a budget deficit is a budget surplus in this case tax revenues exceed government purchases and transfer payments For the public sector to be in deficit implies that the private sector domestic and foreign is in surplus An increase in public indebtedness must necessarily therefore correspond to an equal decrease in private sector net indebtedness In other words deficit spending permits the private sector to accumulate net worth Following John Maynard Keynes many economists recommend deficit spending to moderate or end a recession especially a severe one When the economy has high unemployment an increase in government purchases creates a market for business output creating income and encouraging increases in consumer spending which creates further increases in the demand for business output This is the multiplier effect This raises the real gross domestic product GDP and the employment of labour and if all else is constant lowers the unemployment rate The connection between demand for GDP and unemployment is called Okun’s law The increased size of the market due to government deficits can further stimulate the economy by raising business profitability and spurring optimism which encourages private fixed investment in factories machines and the like to rise This accelerator effect stimulates demand further and encourages rising employment Similarly running a government surplus or reducing its deficit reduces consumer and business spending and raises unemployment This can lower the inflation rate Any use of the government deficit to steer the macro-economy is called fiscal policy FRAMED FROM NEW NCERT HISTORY Q193 With reference to the ancient period which among the following is/are correctly matched 1 Vetti – Tax2 Kadamai – Land revenue3 Nadu – Group of villagesSelect

carbohydrate diet to provide neuroprotective benefits2These are considered as the risk free diet3 Paediatricians prefer this diet in treatment of liver amp Kidney disordersSelect the correct answer using the codes given below :A Only 3B 1 amp 2C Only 1D 1 amp 3Ans C The ketogenic diet is a high-fat adequate-protein low-carbohydrate diet that in medicine is used primarily to treat difficult-to-control refractory epilepsy in children The diet forces the body to burn fats rather than carbohydrates Normally the carbohydrates contained in food are converted into glucose which is then transported around the body and is particularly important in fueling brain-function However if there is very little carbohydrate in the diet the liver converts fat into fatty acids and ketone bodies The ketone bodies pass into the brain and replace glucose as an energy source An elevated level of ketone bodies in the blood a state known as ketosis leads to a reduction in the frequency of epileptic seizures Almost half of children and young people with epilepsy who have tried some form of this diet saw the number of seizures drop by at least half and the effect persists even after discontinuing the diet There is some evidence that adults with epilepsy may benefit from the diet and that a less strict regimen such as a modified Atkins diet is similarly effective The most common adverse effect is constipation affecting about 30 of patients—this was due to fluid restriction which was once a feature of the diet but this led to increased risk of kidney stones and is no longer considered beneficial Q190 Which of the following is/are included in Kyoto Protocol 1 Brominated flame retardants 2 Methyl alcohol 3 Hydrofluorocarbons Select the correct answer using the code given
