Correct Answer : A

A year is a leap year if it is divisible by 4, except that a century year must also be divisible by 400.

• \( 800 \div 400 = 2 \) ✓
• \( 1200 \div 400 = 3 \) ✓
• \( 2000 \div 400 = 5 \) ✓
• \( 700 \div 400 = 1.75 \) ✗

So 700 is not a leap year, even though it is divisible by 4. The 400-year rule exists because the tropical year is a little under \( 365.25 \) days.

Correct Answer : A

Let Ben’s age now be \(B \) 

Anita's age now be \(A\) 

\((A - 6) = P(B - 6)\)

But \(A\) is 17 and therefore, \(11 = P(B - 6)\)

\(\Rightarrow 11/P = B-6\)

\(\Rightarrow (11/P) + 6 = B\)

Correct answer: Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A.

Both statements are true, but being an alloy of copper and tin is not why bronze is chosen for statues. It is chosen because it flows well into a mould, expands slightly as it sets so as to take up fine detail, and resists corrosion out of doors. R does not explain A.

The missing cluster is RRV. Write each letter as its place in the alphabet and look at each position of the clusters separately. First letters: H(8), M(13), ?, W(23), B(2, that is 28 after wrapping): each step adds 5, so the third is R(18). Second letters: X(24), U(21), ?, O(15), L(12): each step subtracts 3, so the third is R(18). Third letters: K(11), C(3), ?, P(16), K(11): the steps are −8, −7, −6, −5, so the third is 3 − 7 = −4, which is 22 after wrapping, V. The cluster is RRV. RRU, RSV and SRV each break at least one of these three patterns.

Correct answer: CAKNCA

Every letter moves four places back: J→F, O→K, S→O, E→A, P→L, H→D. GEORGE therefore gives G→C, E→A, O→K, R→N, G→C, E→A, that is CAKNCA. Since GEORGE has G and E twice each, the code must repeat C and A in the same places, which rules out three of the four options at a glance.

Adrenaline is called the emergency hormone.

Released from the adrenal medulla under stress, it speeds the heart, raises blood pressure and blood sugar, widens the airways and diverts blood to the muscles - the fight-or-flight response that prepares the body for sudden effort.

When the androecium and gynoecium of a bisexual flower mature at different times, the condition is dichogamy.

It prevents self-pollination and so promotes outbreeding. Where the anthers mature first it is protandry; where the stigma does, protogyny. Herkogamy achieves the same end by physical separation instead.

Twenty of them occur in proteins, each with an amino group, a carboxyl group and a distinctive side chain on the same carbon. They join by peptide bonds formed with the loss of water, and the sequence is dictated by the gene.

Oxygen makes up about 65 per cent of the human body by mass.

Most of it is bound in water, which is roughly two-thirds of body mass. Carbon follows at about 18 per cent, hydrogen 10 per cent and nitrogen 3 per cent; these four together account for about 96 per cent of the body.

Correct answer: Geomorphology

Geomorphology - the study of landforms and the processes that shape them - belongs to physical geography, which deals with the natural environment. The discipline divides broadly in two. Physical geography covers geomorphology, climatology, hydrology, biogeography, soil geography and oceanography. Human geography covers population, settlement, economic, political, social and cultural geography. The distinction is one of emphasis rather than a hard boundary, and much of the most interesting work sits across it. Environmental geography, hazard studies and the geography of climate change all require both halves: a cyclone is a physical event, but who is exposed to it and who recovers is a human question. Geography is sometimes described as the bridge between the natural and social sciences for precisely this reason, and its two other unifying concerns - spatial distribution and the relationship between people and place - run through both halves.

Both effects follow from the arrangement of land and sea. The uneven heating of continents and oceans breaks the theoretical pressure belts into separate cells such as the Azores and Pacific highs, and the same land–sea contrast supplies the temperature gradients along which mid-latitude cyclonic depressions form and travel.

Since both statements are true, the combined choice is correct.
