What is the study of agriculture called?
A Agronomy
B Botany
C Entomology
D Zoology
Correct Answer: Agronomy
Explanation:

  • The study of agriculture is called Agricultural Science or Agronomy.
  • It deals with crop production, soil management, and farming techniques.
  • This field helps improve food quality and increase agricultural yield.

How many Spinal nerves are there in the human body?
A 12 pairs
B 24 pairs
C 31 pairs
D 33 pairs
Correct Answer: 31 pairs
Explanation:

  • There are 31 pairs of spinal nerves in the human body.
  • They arise from the spinal cord and carry sensory and motor signals.
  • These nerves connect the brain with different parts of the body.

Intestines are long, coiled, and have many folds in:
A Carnivores
B Omnivores
C Herbivores
D None of these
Correct Answer: Herbivores
Explanation:

  • Herbivores eat plant-based diets, which are high in cellulose and difficult to digest.
  • To maximize nutrient absorption, their small and large intestines are long, coiled, and folded.
  • Examples of herbivores: cow, goat, horse, rabbit.


  • Extra Details

  • Carnivores have short intestines because meat is easier to digest.
  • Omnivores have intermediate-length intestines for mixed diets.

Which is the largest gland in the human body:
A Pancreas
B Thyroid
C Pituitary
D Liver
Correct Answer: Liver
Explanation:

  • The liver is the largest internal organ and gland in the human body.
  • It weighs about 1.2–1.5 kg in an average adult.

Pasteurization is the process of heating:
A Water
B Juice
C Milk
D Oil
Correct Answer: Milk
Explanation:

  • Pasteurization involves heating milk to a specific temperature to kill harmful bacteria and pathogens.
  • Developed by Louis Pasteur, it helps make milk safe for consumption and increases its shelf life.



Common methods:

  • Low-temperature, long-time (LTLT): 63°C for 30 minutes
  • High-temperature, short-time (HTST): 72°C for 15 seconds
  • This process does not significantly change the taste or nutrients of milk.

During hibernation, the frog respires from
A Skin only
B Lungs only
C Both skin and lungs
D Partly by lungs and partly by skin
Correct Answer: Skin only
Explanation:

  • During hibernation, frogs remain inactive and burrow in mud or under leaves to survive cold conditions.
  • Their metabolism slows down, and lungs are not actively used.
  • Frogs rely on cutaneous respiration (through skin) to get oxygen and release carbon dioxide.
  • Their skin must remain moist for efficient gas exchange.

Acid rain causes damage to:
A Flora and Fauna
B Growth of trees
C Big sculptures and marble constructions
D All of these
Correct Answer: All of these
Explanation:

  • Flora and Fauna: Acid rain makes soil and water acidic, which harms plants, aquatic life, fish, and microorganisms.
  • Growth of Trees: It damages leaves and roots, reduces soil nutrients, and weakens trees, making them vulnerable to diseases.
  • Big Sculptures & Marble Constructions: Acid rain reacts with calcium carbonate in marble and limestone, causing corrosion and erosion of monuments (e.g., Taj Mahal).
  • Acid rain is mainly caused by sulfur dioxide (SO₂) and nitrogen oxides (NOₓ) released from industries and vehicles.

A 26
B 33
C 24
D 32
