Answers :

Depending on its location, a neuron can perform the job of a sensory neuron, a motor neuron, or an interneuron, sending and receiving specific neurotransmitters.

4) Answer: C

Without income from tourists, and with the cost of food rising because of the pandemic, many local communities have little choice but to hunt bushmeat, a practice that was banned when the Rwenzori Mountains were designated a national park in 1991.

‘practise’ is the verb and ‘practice’ is the noun.

We need ‘designed a noun there. Hence “’practise’” is incorrect.

Usage of “designed” doesn’t work contextually.

Designated – officially give a specified status or name to

5) Answer: D

Forage is wrong usage.

Forage – search widely for food or provisions It doesn’t fit contextually.

Behind Hunwick, the path we’d been following for the last four days abruptly ended and two dozen men and women were slashing the undergrowth to forge a way through.

forge – To proceed with something ; create (something) strong

6) Answer: B

METLDEX, India’s first base metal futures index from MCX, has now gone live. The index will track the real-time performance of a basket of MCX base metals futures and facilitate efficient price risk management across the value chain.

TRACK – the path you or something else have to go on.

TRACE – the impression or the route of you or something else went on the track.

(i.e.) train’s rail is track and the path between any 2 terminal on the rail is trace.

7) Answer: C

IMD DG Dr M Mohapatra, while explaining the salient features of the system, said that FFGS (Flash Flood Guidance Services (FFGS), first of its kind for South Asian countries namely India, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Nepal and Sri Lanka) will enable all the member countries for issuing impact-based forecasting at watershed and also city level, of floods which are very sudden and of short duration.

Replace waterlog by watershed.

Watershed – an area or ridge of land that separates waters flowing to different rivers, basins, or seas.(It refers to area)

Waterlog refers to condition in which water is stagnated. This word doesn’t fit contextually.

8) Answer: C

The launch of public financial management system (PFMS) at the district level in Jammu and Kashmir will result in improved programme administration and management, direct payment to beneficiaries and greater transparency and accountability in use of public funds.

Replace great by greater.

Both are adjectives. However -> As adjectives the difference between great and greater is that great is very big, large scale while greater is (great).

9) Answer: E

All are correct words.

Many beach stretches are suddenly devoid of vegetation. This sand dune ecosystem, so far neglected, is set to get a new lease of life in Goa. World Bank has approved (3CR) a project proposed by the Goa state biodiversity board that will see India’s first sand dune parks and interpretation centres developed along select stretches.

Vegetation – plants considered collectively, especially those found in a particular area or habitat.

10) Answer: C

NASA’s Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) has confirmed, for the first time, water on the sunlit surface of the Moon. This discovery indicates that water may be distributed across the lunar surface, and not limited to cold, shadowed places.

Limited means finite. (It implies water is not limited to cold, shadowed places. It is spread across the surface)

Unlimited doesn’t make any sense.
