Consider the following pairs of storage structure and its characteristic:

Bag store - Easy stock identification but costly handling

Metal silo - Cheap and quick to erect but thermally responsive

Concrete silo - Thermal mass evens temperature swings

Hermetic structure - Requires continuous ventilation

How many of the pairs given above are correctly matched?

  • A.Only three
  • B.Only one
  • C.Only two
  • D.All four

Answer: A

Correct answer: Only three

Three pairs are right. A bag store gives easy stock identification but costly handling, since every sack is moved individually; a metal silo is cheap and quick to erect but thermally responsive, following ambient swings closely; and a concrete silo's thermal mass evens those swings out.

The fourth is wrong, and reverses the principle. A hermetic structure must be sealed, not ventilated: its whole action depends on respiration depleting the oxygen inside, and any ventilation admitting fresh air would defeat it entirely.
