The Logic followed here is:
Biology is a branch of Science.
Similarly,
Political science is a branch of Social science.
So, The correct answer is "Social science".

The Internet, sometimes called the network of networks, is based upon one simple principle: Transferring information from one computer to another. In order to do this, each computer needs an identity which is called the "Internet Protocol address" or "IP address". It is similar to a telephone number or street address. The IP address is personally identifiable information that is automatically captured by another computer when any communications link is made over the Internet.

Let the present age of the elder person be x years.
Then, present age of the younger person = (x - 10) years
∵ (x - 15) = 2(x - 10 - 15)
⇒ x = 35
Therefore, the present age of the elder person is 35 years.

An operating system is a program that acts as a user-computer GUI (Graphical user interface). It controls the execution of all types of applications. The operating system performs the following functions in a device.

• Communication management acts as an interface between computer hardware components and the user. 
• The memory management module performs the task of allocation and de-allocation of memory space to programs in need of these resources. ​The need for memory management in OS is to allocate and de-allocate memory space to process in demand of resources or if they are running out of memory that leads to alerts called file system and disk space is high or full. The operating system can do resource allocation and prevent the system from overloading.
• Peripheral devices management is OS uses programs called device drivers to manage connections with peripherals. It handles the translation of requests between a device and a computer. defines where a process must put outgoing data before it can be sent, and where incoming messages will be stored when they are received.
• I/O System Management is one of the main objects of any OS is to hide the peculiarities of that hardware device from the user.
• Security module protects the data and information of a computer system against malware threats and authorized access.
• Command interpretation is a module is interpreting commands given by the acting system resources to process those commands.

Thus we conclude that the correct answer is A, B, and C only.

There are various teaching methods and approaches which make teaching-learning a fruitful process. To increase critical thinking skills, the project method is best.
Lecture cum demonstration method: It is one of the traditional methods used in teaching and it is also considered the "chalk and talk method". It is a teacher-centered method as the teacher plans, demonstrates the activity, and explains the principles and concepts involved in it. It can be used by the teachers for better results.
Project-based teaching-learning: It boosts their critical thinking skills as it brings real problems and issues occurring in day-to-day life. The student develops abilities such as investigative abilities, evaluation of his own knowledge, and structuring of new knowledge, which increases motivation and retention of information.
Thus, both the statements I and II are correct.

Given,
The employees recruited by company C = 250, 400, 350, 550 and 700.
The employees recruited by company D = 80, 250, 500, 450 and 550.
Concept Used:
Average = 
Calculation:
According to the question, we have
The total number of employees in company C = 250 + 400 + 350 + 550 + 700 =2250
The total number of employees in company D = 80 + 250 + 500 + 450 + 550 = 1830.
Now, The average number of employees recruited by company C and D is.
= (2250 + 1830)/5
= 4080/5
= 816
∴ The average number of employees recruited by companies C and D for all five years is 816.

Marks obtained by Ragini in Chemistry and Biology together = 45 + 38 = 83

Yes, it is rightly said that the leaners maturity level, academic performance and motivational disposition all have a big influence in the effectiveness of teaching aids and evaluation system in the following ways:
(i) If the maturity level of the learner is low to the extent of teacher employs teaching aid during his/her then it will hinder the effectiveness of teaching and learning and vice-versa.
(ii) If the learner is low or weak in his/her academic learning then it also hinders the effectiveness of teaching because a weak learner find himself/herself difficult to understand the teaching aid which influences the effectiveness of teaching.
(iii) Motivational nature or behavior of students also influences the effectiveness of teaching aid because if the learner is low motivated then he feels difficult to understand the teaching which is delivered with the helps of teaching aid and if a learner is highly motivated then he accepts the teaching through teaching aids easily.

Kyoto Protocol is what “operationalizes” the Convention. It commits industrialized countries to stabilize greenhouse gas emissions based on the principles of the Convention.
In 1992 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the 11th session of the Meeting of the Parties to the 1997 Kyoto Protocol (COP 11). 
Kyoto protocol aimed to cut emissions of greenhouse gases across the developed world by about 5% by 2012 compared with 1990 levels. 
Its goal is to fight global warming by reducing greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere to “a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system”.

Nominal Scale:

• The lowest level of measurement. Use of numbers to name, identify, or classify persons, objects, groups, etc.
• For example, a sample of persons may be classified as Hindu, Muslim, or Sikh.

Ordinal Scale:

• The second level of measurement with the property of magnitude but not of equal intervals or an absolute zero.
• Numbers denote the rank order of the objects or the individuals but there are not equal interval measurements.

Interval Scale:

• The third level of measurement and includes all the characteristics of the nominal and ordinal scales.
• It is defined as a quantitative measurement scale in which the difference between the two variables is meaningful.
• It is the preferred scale in statistics as it assigns any numerical values to arbitrary assessment.

Ratio Scale:

• The highest level of measurement and has all the properties of the above three scales.
• Has absolute or true zero points.

Student 1 marks in History than in Geography = 0.65
= (65/100)
= (5/13)
Student 2 marks in history than in geography = 0.85
= (85/100)
= 17/20
Student 3 marks in history than in geography = 0.35
= (35/100)
= (7/20)
Student 4 marks in history than in geography = 1.25
= (125/100)
= 5/4
Student 5 marks in history than in geography = 1.40
= (140/100) = 7/5
Student 6 marks in history than in geography = 0.95
= (95/100)
= 19/20
Student 7 marks in history than in geography = 1.55
= (155/100)
= 31/20
∴  Number of students who got more marks in History than in Geography is 3.

Kolb's learning style is explained on the basis of two dimensions: they are how a person understands and processes the information. This perceived information is then classified as concrete experience or abstract conceptualization and processed information as active experimentation or reflective observation.

• Diverging: Individuals of this kind of learning style look at things from a different perspective. 
• Assimilating: People of this kind of learning style prefer good clear information, they can logically format the given information and explore analytic models. 
• Converging: Converging type of learners solve problems. They apply their learning to practical issues. Also, they prefer technical tasks, and they experiment with new ideas.
• Accommodating: Individuals with this kind of learning style prefer to do things practically. They are attracted to new challenges and solve problems intuitively. The learning characteristics are concrete experience and active experimentation.

Therefore, the cyclic order is Diverging ⇒ Assimilating ⇒ Converging ⇒ Accommodating.
