schools of thought. The Theosophical
Movement came to be allied with Hindu
renaissance. Hence, both statements are

statements 1, 2 and 3 are correct regarding
Deccan riots of 1875. In 1867 the
government raised land revenue by nearly
50% and the situation worsened by a

The first humble beginnings with respect to
education were made by the Charter Act of

provoked furious protests, especially among
the Calcutta (Kolkata) European business
community and the Bengal indigo planters,
and there was covert sympathy from many
officials.
Indian National Congress was not yet formed

the Indian National Congress the following
year.

more than the combined total of the species
of fishes, amphibians, reptiles and mammals.
All statements are correct so option A
Q.27 :c
Geostrophic winds: Air under the influence of
both the pressure gradient force and Coriolis
force tends to move parallel to isobars in
conditions where friction is low (1000 meters
above the surface of the Earth) and isobars
are straight.
Geostrophic winds come about because
pressure gradient force and Coriolis force
come into balance after the air begins to
move.
A geostrophic wind flows parallel to the
isobars.
In this model of wind flow in the Northern
Hemisphere, wind begins as a flow of air
perpendicular to the isobars under the
primary influence of the pressure gradient
force (PGF). As the movement begins, the
Coriolis force (CF) begins to influence the
moving air causing it to deflect to the right of
its path. This deflection continues until the
pressure gradient force and Coriolis force are
opposite and in balance with each other.
Q.24 :c
GST will subsume the indirect taxes for Goods and
Services produced in India - not those imported into
India. Customs duty, although an indirect tax, is
imposed on goods imported, not manufctured.

Q.39 :b
Podsolization is associated with humid cold
mid-latitude
climates
&
coniferous
vegetation. Cold & humid climate is most
favorable for podsolization. Siliceous (sandy)
materials with poor reserves of weatherable
minerals favor the operation of podsolization
as they help in easy percolation of water.
Hence 1st statement is incorrect.
Laterization is pedogenic process common
to soils found in tropical & subtropical
environments. Hence 2nd statement is
correct
Calcification
occurs
when
evapotranspiration exceeds precipitation
causing the upward movement of dissolved
alkaline salts from groundwater and is
common in the prairie grasslands. Hence 3rd
statement is correct
Gleization
is
a
pedogenic
process
associated with poor drainage. This process
involves the accumulations of organic matter
in upper layers of soil. Hence 4th statement
is incorrect.
Hence option (b) is the correct answer.
Q.37 :b
Particulate Matter are tiny particles in the air that
reduce visibility and cause the air to appear hazy
when levels are elevated. They are able to travel
deeply into the respiratory tract, reaching the lungs.
Exposure to fine particles can cause short-term
health effects such as eye, nose, throat and lung
irritation, coughing, sneezing, runny nose and
shortness of breath. There are outdoor and indoor
sources of fine particles. Outside, fine particles
primarily come from vehicle exhausts, burning of
fuels such as wood, construction dust, etc. Fine
particles also form from the reaction of gases or
droplets in the atmosphere from sources such as
power plants. Because fine particles can be carried
long distances from their source, events such as
wildfires or volcanic eruptions can raise fine particle
concentrations hundreds of miles from the event.
Outdoor air levels of fine particles increase during
periods of stagnant air (very little wind and air
mixing), when the particles are not carried away by
wind.

Q.40 :b
It decreases with increase in latitude. At the
Equator, a circumference of 40,077 km is to
be covered in 24 hrs. Hence the speed is
calculated to be about 1660 km/hr, but it

450latitude, the earth spins at the rate of
about 1,120 kilometers per hour. At the
poles, the movement is very little.

Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code led to
nondiscrimination of homosexuality .
Lord Macaulay drafted Indian Penal
Code,1860 and introduced it in 1861.The

Currency notes and coins are therefore called fiat
money. They do not have intrinsic value like a gold
or silver coin. They are also called legal tendersas
they cannot be refused by any citizen of the country
for settlement of any kind of transaction. Cheques
drawn on savings or current accounts, however , can
be refused by anyone as a mode of payment. Hence,
demand deposits are not legal tenders.
Q.54 :d
Currency that a government has declared to be legal tender,

money is derived from the relationship between supply and
demand rather than the value of the material that the money
is made of.
Q.52 :c
Sonar and Radar work on the same
principle of detecting an object through echo.
SONAR (Sound Navigation and Ranging) uses
sound waves as in water radio waves are
easily absorbed but sound waves can travel
far.
RADAR (Radio detection and ranging) is
used for aerial detection as radio waves have
high penetration in air whereas sound waves
have low penetration in air.
Hence, statement 1 is correct. Statement 2 is correct
as range of SONAR will decrease as radio waves are
absorbed more easily. Statement 3 is incorrect as
sound waves are reading absorbed in air
Q.53 :d
Biomethanation is anaerobic
digestion of organic materials which is
converted into biogas, a gaseous
combustible mixture, of methane (CH4).
Biomethanation is a biological treatment
method that can be used to recover both
nutrients and energy contained in wet
biodegradable municipal waste.
Gasification is incomplete
combustion which produces combustible gas
such as hydrogen, synthetic fuels and is a
process that converts dry organic or fossil
based carbonaceous materials into carbon
monoxide, hydrogen and carbon dioxide at
elevated temperature (500-1800C)

Q.56 :d
All the statements are correct.
While calculating national output ,the assumption
made is that the bulk of the commodities and
services produced are exchanged for
money.India,where agriculture is carried on a
subsistence basis ,a considerable portion of the
output does not come to the market for sale.At
present ,there is no proper method of finding out the
amount consumed at home or bartered away with
producers.So 1st statement is correct.
A very large number of producers carry on
production at family level or on a very small
scale.They are so illiterate that they dont maintain
regular accounts.As relatively high proportion of the
economy being in Unorganised sector,margin of
error in the estimation increases.So statement 2nd is
correct.
