  1. n*(n-1)/2

  2. n*(n-3)/2

  3. n*n

  4. n*(n-2)/3

A Correct answer
Explanation

In a complete graph with n vertices, each vertex connects to (n-1) others. Total connections counted this way = n*(n-1). Each edge is counted twice (once from each endpoint), so actual edges = n*(n-1)/2. Option A is correct.

D Correct answer
Explanation

Kuratowski's theorem provides the complete characterization of planar graphs. A graph is planar if and only if it does not contain a subgraph that is a subdivision of K5 (complete graph on 5 vertices) or K3,3 (complete bipartite graph with 3+3 vertices). These two graphs are the minimal non-planar graphs - any graph containing them as a subgraph cannot be drawn without edge crossings.

Multiple choice general knowledge science & technology
  1. even degree

  2. odd degree

  3. at least one loop

  4. none of these

A Correct answer
Explanation

Euler's theorem states that a connected graph has an Euler cycle (closed trail using every edge exactly once) if and only if every vertex has even degree. This is because each time an Euler trail enters a vertex, it must also exit, requiring paired edges. Loops contribute 2 to the degree count.

  1. Vitamin B1

  2. Vitamin B2

  3. Vitamin D

  4. Vitamin K

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Vitamin K is essential for blood clotting as it helps the liver produce several clotting factors required for the coagulation cascade. Without adequate Vitamin K, blood cannot clot properly, leading to excessive bleeding. Vitamins B1, B2, and D serve different functions in the body and are not directly involved in clotting.

Multiple choice general knowledge science & technology
  1. Insulin

  2. Bile juice

  3. Peptic juice

  4. None of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The pancreas secretes insulin, a hormone produced by beta cells in the islets of Langerhans. Insulin is essential for regulating blood glucose levels by facilitating glucose uptake into cells. Bile juice is produced by the liver, and peptic juice comes from the stomach.
