32) ∠ OAD = ∠CBA (corresponding angles)

and ∠ OAD = 60°
Now, ∠ NAD =90°
and ∠ NAO + ∠OAD = ∠NAD = 90°
⇒ ∠NAO + 60° = 90°
⇒ ∠ NAO = 30°

33) Explanation:
To find the angle θ between mirror and horizontal surface.

Concept:
This question is based on angle of incidence = angle of reflection.

Solution:

2i = 90 + 10
2i = 100°
i = 50°
So glance angle
⇒ 90 – 50 → x = 90 – 50
x = 40°
from AIA Q = 10 + x
Q = 10 + 40
Q = 50°

Final Answer:
Option (1) is correct.

Question Explanation: Find $R$ from magnification and object distance.

Concept: Mirror Formula and Magnification.
Solution :
m = 4 , u = –60 cm ,R = ?

For concave mirror, m =

4=
4f + (0.60 × 4) = f
3f = - 0.60 × 4
f = -0.8 cm, R = 2 f , so R = 2 × (-0.8 ) = -1.60 cm
Final answer : Option 3

43) The magnification of an image of an object placed at any position between the pole and
 principal focus of a concave mirror is always greater than 1 in magnitude and it always forms a
magnified virtual image of an object placed between its pole and principal focus.

Explain Question:
Balance the given chemical equation
Concept:
Balancing chemical equations
Solution:
A balanced chemical equation has the same number of atoms for each element on both the
reactant and product sides, satisfying the law of conservation of mass.
Balanced equation is:
K2Cr2O7 + 4KCl + 6H2SO4 → 2CrO2Cl2 + 6KHSO4 + 3H2O
So, the coefficients are: a = 1, b = 4, c = 6, x = 2, y = 6, z = 3

Final answer
Correct answer is option (4)

Question Explanation: Find the value of x in the balanced equation.

Concept: Balancing Chemical Equations.

Solution: The equation is : 2Fe + xHC2H3O2 → 2Fe(C2H3O2)3 + 3H2

Let's balance the acetate ions (C2H3O2​). On the product side, there are 2 × 3 = 6 acetate ions.
To balance this, 'x' must be 6. This also balances the hydrogen atoms.
The equation becomes : 2Fe + 6C2H4O2 → 2Fe(C2H3O2)3 + 3H2

Final Answer: Option 2

49) Question Explanation: Determine which solutions can be stored in a copper container.

Concept: Reactivity Series.

Solution: A solution can be stored in a metal container only if the metal is less reactive than
the metal in the salt solution, so that no displacement reaction occurs. Copper is less reactive
than Aluminium (Al), Zinc (Zn), and Iron (Fe). Therefore, copper will not displace any of these
metals from their sulphate solutions.

Final Answer: Option 4

50) When barium chloride is added to sodium sulphate, a precipitation occurs. It is also a
double displacement reaction in which ions are exchanged. The reaction is given below:
Na2SO4 +BaCl2 ⟶ 2NaCl + BaSO4
​In this reaction, a white ppt. of barium sulphate and aqueous sodium chloride are formed. The
solution in water consists only sodium chloride because sodium chloride dissolves in water
while white barium sulphate (precipitate) settles down.

61) Utricularia is an insectivorous plant.

62) Explain Question:

This question describes an experiment to demonstrate the necessity of sunlight for
photosynthesis and starch production in a detached leaf.
Concept:
The concept is Photosynthesis.
Solution:
Only the portion covered with strip A would remain colourless while the rest of the leaf would
turn blue black.
The position (A) will not receive sunlight, so no photosynthesis will occur, and no starch will be
produced. This part will remain colourless when tested with iodine. The rest of the leaf,
exposed to sunlight, will perform photosynthesis and produce starch, turning black when
tested with iodine.
Final Answer:
Option (4) is correct.

63) A and C are correct. Chlorophyll is in thylakoids and converts light energy into chemical
energy, not the reverse.

64)

Correct statements are-

(iii) Stomach, pancreas and small intestine secretes digestive enzymes but gall bladder stores
and secretes digestive juice.
(v) Stomach secretes digestive enzymes and mucus which prevents stomach from the effect of
HCl while pancreas secrete pancreatic juice and hormones like insulin and glucagon.

65)

Explain Question:
Question is asking that which component of food would be affected, if the pH of stomach
becomes 7.
Concept:
Process of digestion
Solution:
If the stomach's pH were to rise to 7 (a neutral pH) protein digestion would be severely
affected because the enzyme pipsin which requires highly acidic environment (pH 1.5 -2.5)
would not be activated, so protein digestion would be affected.
Final answer:
Option (3) is correct

66) Explain Question:

The questions asks about the even during which carbon atoms are reduced.
Concept:
The concept is Dark reaction.
Solution:
During the Calvin cycle, also called as Dark reaction or light independent reaction, CO2 is
combined with a molecule called ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP), and through a series of
reactions, the carbon atoms are reduced, meaning they gain electrons and energy, resulting in
the formation of sugars.
Final Answer:
Option (2) is correct.

67) Question Explanation:

Identify A, B, C and D in digestion of carbohydrates.

Concept:
This question is based on process of digestion.

Solution:
Enzyme A is amylase which breaks down starch into maltose.
Enzyme B is lactase which digest lactose into glucose and glucose molecules.
Enzyme C is maltase which acts on maltose into two glucose molecules.
Enzyme D is invertase which breakdown sucrose into glucose and fructose.

Final answer : Option (2) is correct

68) The graph shows multiple peaks and troughs in the rate of photosynthesis. This pattern
corresponds to different wavelengths of light: photosynthesis is maximum in blue and red
regions and minimum in green. Other factors (light intensity, temperature, CO₂) give a rising
or bell-shaped curve, not this fluctuating one. Hence, the X-axis represents wavelength

69) Question Explanation: Determining the results of a starch test on two leaf sections, one
exposed to $\text{CO}_{2}$ and one without it.

Concept: Photosynthesis Requirements

Solution: {Q} (exposed to light and {CO2} will form starch, turning {Blue/Black}: {R}
(exposed to light but {no CO2) will not form starch, remaining Brown.

Final Answer: 1

70) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

71) Small intestine → Trypsin → Protein

72) Trypsinogen

73) Digestion of proteins

74) Correct Answer - A. p – Blue light (≈ 450 nm)

Explanation
Blue light activates H⁺-ATPase pumps in guard cell membranes. This leads to K⁺ influx,
followed by water entry by osmosis. Guard cells become turgid, causing stomatal opening.
Other wavelengths do not effectively trigger this mechanism.
 75) Salivary amylase needs basic pH to work while in X (stomach) medium is acidic, so this
enzyme is not working on starch.

Let the two numbers be x and y

ATQ, x + y = 12 and x2 + y2 = 74
(x – y)2 = 2(x2 + y2) – (x + y)2
⇒(x – y)2 = 2 × 74 – (12)2 = 148 – 144 = 4
x–y=2
Now,

⇒y=5
And x = 12 – 5 = 7
Hence, the required numbers are 5, 7

Let the no. of rows be x and no. of students in each row be y.

ATQ,
Case -1
xy = (x – 3)(y + 5)
⇒ xy = xy + 5x – 3y – 15
⇒ 5x – 3y = 15 … (1)
Case -2
xy = (x + 4) (y – 5)
⇒ xy = xy – 5x + 4y – 20
⇒ –5x + 4y = 20 … (2)
Adding equation (1) and (2),
–3y + 4y = 15 + 20
y = 35
and 5x – 3(35) = 15
⇒ 5x = 15 + 105 = 120
⇒ x = 24
∴ Total number of students = xy
= 24 × 35
= 840

Let the speed of train and car be x km/hr and y km/h respectively.
ATQ,

= 12 and =9
Or 66u + 99v = 4 … (1)
44u + 11v = 1 … (2)

Multiply equation (2) by 9 and subtract from (1),

66u – 396u = 4 – 9 = –5
⇒ 330u = 5

⇒u=

And 44 × + 11v = 1

11v = 1 –

⇒v=

∴ x= = 66 km / h and y = = 33 km/ h
