Physics Chemistry & Biology Test 1
The hottest part of the gas flame is known as:
  • blue zone
  • non-luminous zone
Explanation: The non-luminous zone, often referred to as the blue zone, is the part of the flame where complete combustion occurs. This area is the hottest because it has the most efficient combustion, producing the maximum amount of heat.
Which microorganism is responsible for Dengue fever?
  • Fungi
  • Viruses
  • Bacteria
  • Protozoa
Explanation: Dengue fever is transmitted by mosquitoes of the species Aedes aegypti. These mosquitoes are the primary vectors for the Dengue virus, which is responsible for causing Dengue fever in humans. The disease is characterized by high fever, severe headaches, pain behind the eyes, joint and muscle pain, rash, and bleeding manifestations.
Blood Circulation was discovered by?
  • Mary Anderson
  • William Harvey
  • Virginia Apgar
  • Robert Feulgen
Explanation: William Harvey, an English physician, is credited with the discovery of the systemic circulation of blood. In 1628, he published his work "De Motu Cordis" (On the Motion of the Heart and Blood), which detailed how blood circulates through the body, driven by the pumping action of the heart.
The largest gland of human body is :
  • Thyroid
  • Kidney
  • Pancreas
  • Liver
Explanation: The liver is the largest gland in the human body and performs a wide range of functions, including detoxifying harmful substances, producing bile for digestion, and regulating various metabolic processes.
In a computer, the parity bit is added for the purpose of:
  • Coding
  • Error detection
  • Controlling
  • Indexing
Explanation: A parity bit is a binary digit added to a set of binary data to ensure that the number of bits with a value of 1 is even or odd, depending on the type of parity being used (even or odd parity). It helps detect errors that may have occurred during data transmission or storage by checking if the parity matches the expected value.
The digested food is absorbed in
  • Stomach
  • Intestine (small)
  • Intestine (large)
  • Colon
Explanation: The small intestine is the primary site for nutrient absorption in the digestive system. It has three parts: the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. The majority of nutrient absorption occurs in the jejunum and ileum.
Which one of the following gases, present in the air near the surface of the Earth, has maximum concentrations?
  • Oxygen
  • Hydrogen
  • Nitrogen
  • Explanation: Nitrogen makes up about 78% of Earth's atmosphere by volume, making it the most abundant gas in the air. Oxygen is the second most abundant gas, comprising about 21% of the atmosphere. Hydrogen and methane are present in much smaller concentrations.
