General Science problems
- 1. The gas predominantly responsible for global warming is
Options- A. Carbon monoxide
- B. Nitrous oxide
- C. Nitrogen peroxide
- D. Carbondioxide Also asked in: AIEEE, Bank Exams, CAT, Analyst, Bank Clerk, Bank PO
Correct Answer: Carbondioxide
Explanation:
72% of the totally emitted greenhouse gases is carbon dioxide.
Hence, Carbon dioxide (Co2) is predominantly responsible for Global warming.
- 2. Which is not a sediment transporting agent?
Options- A. Stratification
- B. Windstorms
- C. Glacial Ice
- D. Stream water Also asked in: AIEEE, Bank Exams, CAT, GATE, Analyst, Bank Clerk, Bank PO
Correct Answer: Stratification
Explanation:
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.
- 3. Ticks and mites are actually
Options- A. Arachnids
- B. Insects
- C. Myriapods
- D. Crustaceans Also asked in: AIEEE, Bank Exams, GATE, Analyst, Bank Clerk, Bank PO
Correct Answer: Arachnids

Options- A. stem
- B. root
- C. flower bud
- D. fruit Also asked in: CAT, Bank Exams, AIEEE, Bank PO, Bank Clerk, Analyst
Correct Answer: flower bud
- 5. The non green heterotrophic plants of plant kingdom are
Options- A. Algae
- B. Fungi
- C. Ferns
- D. Both B & C Also asked in: AIEEE, Bank Exams, CAT, Analyst, Bank Clerk, Bank PO
Correct Answer: Fungi
Explanation:
The non green heterotrophic plants of plant kingdom are Fungi.
- 6. Fear of crossing road is called as
Options- A. Emetophobia
- B. Aerophobia
- C. Erythrophobia
- D. Agoraphobia Also asked in: AIEEE, Bank Exams, CAT, GATE, Analyst, Bank Clerk, Bank PO
Correct Answer: Agoraphobia
Explanation:
Fear of places and situations that might cause panic, helplessness or embarrassment is called Agoraphobia.
Fear of crossing road causes some panic in them and comes under Agoraphobia.
- 7. The best colours for a sun umbrella will be
Options- A. Black on top red on inside
- B. Red on top white on inside
- C. White on top black on inside
- D. Black on top white on inside Also asked in: AIEEE, Bank Exams, CAT, Analyst, Bank Clerk, Bank PO
Correct Answer: White on top black on inside
- 8. Which of the following cannot be beaten into Sheets?
Options- A. Gold
- B. Silver
- C. Potassium
- D. Aluminum Also asked in: Bank Exams
Correct Answer: Potassium
- 9. How many cups in a quart?
Options- A. 2
- B. 3
- C. 4
- D. 1 Also asked in: AIEEE, Bank Exams, CAT, Analyst, Bank Clerk, Bank PO
Correct Answer: 4
Explanation:
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.
- 10. What is common between Aerobic and Anaerobic Respiration?
Options- A. Krebs cycle
- B. Glycolysis
- C. Electron transport chain
- D. All the above Also asked in: Bank Exams, AIEEE, Bank Clerk, Analyst
Correct Answer: Glycolysis
Explanation:
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.
