Question 3

The Study of Universe is called

Accepted Answer

Cosmology is the scientific study of the large scale properties of the universe as a whole. It endeavors to use the scientific method to understand the origin, evolution and ultimate fate of the entire Universe. Depending on the outcome of the observations, the theories will need to be abandoned, revised or extended to accommodate the data. The prevailing theory about the origin and evolution of our Universe is the so-called Big Bang theory.

Question 4

Which of the following is not a sedimentary structure?

Accepted Answer

Except Rock color, all other Graded bedding, Ripple marks and Mud cracks are sedimentary structures.

Question 5

How fast do satellites orbit the earth?

Accepted Answer

Satellites orbit the earth at a speed of 28,000 kmph. Satellites that are further away actually travel slower. The International Space Station has a Low Earth Orbit, about 400 kilometers (250 miles) above the earth's surface. Objects orbiting at that altitude travel about 28,000 kilometers per hour (17,500 miles per hour).

Question 6

What is the first step in Photosynthesis?

Accepted Answer

The first step in Photosynthesis is Excitement of an electron of chlorophyll photon of light.

Question 7

The gas predominantly responsible for global warming is

Accepted Answer

72% of the totally emitted greenhouse gases is carbon dioxide. Hence, Carbon dioxide (Co2) is predominantly responsible for Global warming.

Question 8

Which is not a sediment transporting agent?

Accepted Answer

Stratification as actually the settling down of sediments with different properties to form layers/strata over years. Stratification especially occurs on the bed of water bodies such as oceans. Stratified sedimentary rocks are used to study the ecological conditions over previous years/eras. The other choices like Windstorms, Glacial Ice and Stream water are mediums which sediments are transported.

Accepted Answer

1 quart = 4 cups. => We know that 1 quart = 2 pints But 1 pint = 2 cups => 2 pints = 2 x 2 cups = 4 cups = 1 quart.

Question 12

What is common between Aerobic and Anaerobic Respiration?

Accepted Answer

Glycolysis is common between Aerobic and Anaerobic Respiration. Cellular respiration is the process by which glucose is broken down to form ATP molecules, which act as carriers of cellular energy. The first phase is called glycolysis and is common to both aerobic (respiration in the presence of oxygen) and anaerobic (respiration in the absence of oxygen) respiration. During glycolysis, glucose is split to forms two pyruvate molecules and 2 molecules of ATP. This occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. If oxygen in present, the pyruvate molecules will be used in the Krebs cycle, to yield more ATP molecules. If oxygen is absent, the pyruvate is converted into lactic acid, or ethanol and carbon dioxide, in animals or plants, respectively.
