NCERT Class 11 Ch.5 page 5
Newton’s second law of motion:
A seasoned cricketer catches a cricket ball coming in with great speed far more
easily than a novice, who can hurt his hands in the act. One reason is that the
cricketer allows a longer time for his hands to stop the ball. As you may have
noticed, he draws in the hands backward in the act of catching the ball
Hence answer (B)
Optics (2)
Q1.No matter how far you stand from a mirror, your image appears erect. The
mirror is likely to be
1. Either plane or convex

2. Plane only
3. Concave
4. Convex only

1. the electric energy is completely converted into light energy

2. the electric energy is partly converted into light energy and partly into heat
energy
3. the light energy is converted into electric energy
4. the electric energy is converted into magnetic energy
NCERT Class 7 ch14 page 6
An electric bulb is used for light but it also gives heat. This is not desirable. This
results in the wastage of electricity. => Answer (B)
Astro (1)
Q3. A typical black hole is always specified by
1. a (curvature) singularity
2. a horizon
3. either a (curvature) singularity or a horizon
4. a charge
TheHindu Jan 2014
physicist Stephen Hawking, one of the creators of modern theory on black holes,
has now questioned the existence of the phenomenon known as event horizon
around them. Mening, so far typical black hole is specified by a “horizon”.
Britannica confirms
Event horizon is the Boundary marking the limits of a black hole.
Nothing that enters a black hole can get out or can be observed from outside the
event horizon. Likewise, any radiation generated inside the horizon can never
escape beyond it.
hence answer (B)
Chemistry Answerkey (5 MCQs)

1. Acid solution
2. Base solution
3. Common salt solution
Select the correct answer using the code given below.
1. 1 and 3
2. 2 and 3
3. 1 only
4. 2 only
NCERT class 7 ch 5 page 8: Acid turns blue litmus red. Bases turn red litmus blue.
Therefore, anything that is not “Acid”, will not change color of litmus from blue to
red. Hence (B) 2 and 3 only.
Source #2: Lucent GK Book Page 481
Q2. Which one of the following gases is supporter of combustion?
1. Hydrogen
2. Nitrogen
3. Carbon dioxide
4. Oxygen
NCERT 8 ch. 6 page 11: Oxygen (in air) is essential for combustion. Answer (D)
Q3.Date of manufacture of food items fried in oil should be checked before buying
because oils become rancid due to
1. Oxidation.
2. Reduction.
3. Hydrogenation.
4. Decrease in velocity.
NCERT 10 Ch 1 Page 13: When fats and oils are oxidised, they become rancid
and their smell and taste change. Hence answer (A)
Q4. Iron sheet kept in moist air gets covered with rust. Rust is
1. an element
2. a compound
3. a mixture of iron and dust
4. a mixture of iron, oxygen and water
NCERT Class 12 chemistry Ch3 Page 28-29
Corrosion of iron (commonly known as rusting) occurs in presence of water and

air.
Rust is the hydrated ferric oxide Fe2O3xH20
Hence answer (D)
counter view: rust is a compound and not a mixture hence answer (B).
Q5.Addition of ethylene dibormide to petrol
1. Increases the octane number of fuel

2. Helps elimination of lead oxide
3. Removes the sulphur compound in petrol
4. Serves as a substitute of tetra-ethyl lead

Botany (3)
Q1. Which of the following structures of a plant is responsible for transpiration? -
1. Xylem
2. Root
3. Stomata
4. Bark
Ans. NCERT Class 7 Ch 11 page 129
The water evaporates through the stomata present on the surface of the leaves by
the process of transpiration. Answer C
Q2. Which of the following does not possess a specialized conducting tissue for
transport of water and other substances in plants?
1. Marchantia
2. Marsilea
3. Cycas
4. Fern
NCERT Biology class 11, Ch3, Page 8
Pteridophytes include horsetails and ferns. Evolutionarily, they are the first
terrestrial plants to possess vascular tissues – xylem and phloem. => D eliminated.
And this also hints that any plant “Before” pteridophtes, doesn’t possess
specialized tissues.
Same chapter, page7
The liverworts grow usually in moist, shady habitats such as banks of streams,
marshy ground, damp soil, bark of trees and deep in the woods. The plant body of
a liverwort is thalloid, e.g., Marchantia.
Hence answer should be (A).
Just to crosscheck, Britannica also confirms:

Vascular plants are those that possess a specialized conducting system for the
transport of water, minerals, and food materials, as opposed to the more primitive
bryophytes—mosses and liverworts—which lack such a system.
and since Marchantia is one type of liverwort=> it lacks the specialized tissues to
transport water etc.
Therefore, answer (A)
Q3. Which one of the following elements is present in green pigment of leaf?
1. Magnesium
2. Phosphorus
3. Iron
4. Calcium
NCERT biology class 11, Ch12, Page4: Magnesium is a constituent of the ring
structure of chlorophyll.
And we know that chlorophyll=green pigment. Hence answer (A)
Zoology(1)
Q1. Among the following animals, choose the one having three pairs of legs.
1. Spider
2. Scorpion
3. Bug
4. Mite
NCERT Class 11 Ch1 Page8
Insects represent a group of organisms sharing common features like three pairs
of jointed legs. Therefore, answer (C)
Source #2: Lucent GK Book Page 539: there are six feet and four wings in the
insects (six feet = three pairs).
Source #3: TMH General Studies Manual, page 87
Just to cross check:
1. Britannica page on Arachnid: Spiders, Scorpions and Mites fall under

“Arachnid” class. and from the photos posted in there, you can see they’re
more than three pair of legs.
2. Britannica page on insects: Insects are distinguished from other arthropods
by their body…which usually has three pairs of legs
Disease/microbes (2)
Q1. Which method of water purification does not kill microorganism?
1. Boiling
2. Filtration
3. Chlorination
4. UV-irradiation
Although common sense suggest answer should be filtration among the given
option. But for the sake of reference: FAQ page of a UV filter company
Do ordinary filters kill bacteria?
No. Ordinary filters cannot kill bacteria. The bacteria will enter the filter and either
pass through the filter or grow within the filter.
Hence answer (B).
Q2. What causes dough (a mixture of flour, water, etc.) to rise when yeast is
added to it?
1. An increase in the temperature

2. An increase in the amount of the substance
3. An increase in the number of yeast cells
4. Release of carbon dioxide gas
NCERT 7 Ch. 10 page 1
there are some organisms such as yeast that can survive in the absence of air.
They are called anaerobes. They get energy through anaerobic respiration. In the
absence of oxygen, they breakdown glucose into alcohol and carbon dioxide. =>
Answer should be D.
Britannica confirms
leavening agent cause expansion of doughs by the release of gases within such
mixtures, thus, producing baked products with porous structure. Yeast, baking
powder, and baking soda are examples of leavening agents.
Final answer (D)
Human Biology(6)
Q1. Deficiency of which of the following elements is responsible for weakening of

bones?
1. Calcium
2. Phosphorus
3. Nitrogen
4. Carbon
1. 1 and 2 only
2. 1 only
3. 1, 2 and 3
4. 4
Common sense suggests answer should be only 1 (Calcium). but this is UPSC, so
before applying common sense we should cross check that atleast #2
(phosphorous) is wrong. (if phosphorous is wrong, then it’ll automatically eliminate
“A” and “C”)
NCERT Class 12 Chemistry Ch 7 Page 2.
Phosphorus is an essential constituent of animal and plant matter. It is present in

bones as well as in living cells.
But, will its deficiency weaken the bone?
1. Britannica Kids: A diet deficient in vitamin D, calcium, or phosphorus, can

result in rickets.. causes bone deformities such as bowlegs.
2. Encyclopedia of Animal Science by Wilson G. Pond Page 636: The
outstanding disease of Ca and P deficiency is rickets. Rickets results in weak
bones, causing curving and bending of the bones.
3. Food and nutrition education, Punam Chopra, Page 123: In Children,
phosphorous deficiency causes weakening of teeth and bones.
Therefore, answer (A) only 1 and 2. i.e. deficiency of calcium and phosphorous
leads to weakening of bones.
Q2. Which of the following statements is/are correct regarding fats?
1. Fats are needed for the formation of cell membrane.

2. Fats help the body to absorb calcium from food.
3. Fats are required to repair damaged tissue.
4. Body cannot release energy in fats as quickly as the energy in carbohydrates.
1. 1 and 4
2. 1 only
3. 2 and 4
4. 3 and 4
Statement #1 is correct
1. theHindu from 2010: Fifty per cent of all our cell membranes are made up of
saturated fat.
2. Cellular physiology, Livio Luzi, Page18: The three main classes of lipids that
makeup the cell membranes are fats, phospholipids and steroids
Statement 4 is correct
1. Energy Balance by Westerterp, Page 34: Carbohydrate is a fast energy

source. Fat as an energy source only becomes available through a longer
digestion process.
2. Advanced Marathoning By Pete Pfitzinger, Page 37: Carbohydrate is a more
efficient energy source than fat. You cannot run as fast by burning just fat.
Final answer: (A) 1 and 4
Q3. Which of-the following statements is /are correct?
1. Amnion contains fluid.

2. Ultrasound scan can detect the sex of an embryo.

1. 1 only
2. 2 only
3. Both 1 and 2
4. Neither 1 nor 2
Statement #1 is right, as per Britannica
Amnion is a membrane forming a fluid-filled cavity (the amniotic sac) that encloses
the embryo in reptiles, birds, and mammals
Statement #2 is right. Although we all know it but for the sake of reference:
Textbook of Basic nursing, Nursine by aroline Rosdahl and Mary Kowalski, Page
949
Ultrasound scan can determine the age, size and sex of the foetus.
counter argument: Ultrasound cannot detect @”Embryo” stage.
Answer (C) or A.

Q6. People suffering from anorexia nervosa
1. Develop paralysis
2. Show poor reflex
3. Cannot speak properly
4. Eat very little and fear gaining weight
NCERT 12 Psychology Ch.4 Page 16
In anorexia nervosa, the individual has a distorted body image that leads her/him
to see herself/himself as overweight. Often refusing to eat, exercising
compulsively and developing unusual habits such as refusing to eat in front of
others, the anorexic may lose large amounts of weight and even starve
herself/himself to death. Hence answer (D).
