Correct
a) Modern Dental College vs State of Madhya Pradesh
In Modern Dental College vs State of Madhya Pradesh (2016), the top court adopted the proportionality test proposed by Aharon Barak, the former Chief Justice, Supreme Court of Israel. It was reiterated in K.S.Puttaswamy vs Union of India (2017).

Question 2 of 5
2. Question
1 pointsWhich of the following best describes Jean’s escape?
Correct
a) The loss of exospheric atoms of the moon to space by the thermal escape.
Lunar Exosphere
‘Exosphere’ is the outermost region of the upper atmosphere of a celestial body where the constituent atoms and molecules rarely collide with each other and can escape into space.
Earth’s Moon features a surface-boundary-exosphere. For Moon, different constituents in the exosphere are fed from the surface by a variety of processes such as:
Thermal Desorption: The exospheric atoms may be lost to space by the thermal escape (also known as the Jean’s escape).
Photo-Stimulated Desorption: The atoms get ionized by photo-ionization and charge exchange with the solar wind ions.
Solar wind Sputtering: The atoms can be swept away by the convective electric field of the solar wind.
Micrometeorite Impact Vaporization: The impact of micrometeoroid is usually sufficiently energetic to cause vaporization of the impacting particle as well as produce an impact crater of volume an order of magnitude greater than the impacting particle.
A micrometeoroid is orbital debris which is smaller than a grain of sand.
Thus, the lunar exosphere exists as a result of a dynamic equilibrium between several source and sink processes.
i.e Option A is correct.Incorrect

Question 3 of 5
3. Question
1 pointsWith reference to ‘Palladium’, consider the following statements
1. It is a rare metal used in the manufacture of catalytic converters and fuel cells
2. Russia accounts for more than half of world production in Palladium
Choose the correct statementsCorrect
a) 1 only
Palladium is used in catalytic converters, which convert as much as 90% of the harmful gases in automobile exhaust (hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and nitrogen dioxide) into harmless substances (nitrogen, carbon dioxide and water vapor). Palladium is a key component of fuel cells, which react hydrogen with oxygen to produce electricity, heat, and water. Hence Statement 1 is correct.
Russia accounted for 40% of world production of Palladium. It is also found in South Africa, Canada and the U.S.A. Hence Statement 2 is Incorrect.Incorrect

Question 4 of 5
4. Question
1 pointsWhich nation has threatened to detach itself from the International Space Station?
Correct
a) Russia
Russia has reportedly released a propaganda video that shows Russian cosmonauts disconnecting the Russian ISS modules from the International Space Station. The video is reportedly sort of a joke film or could even be a silent threat from Russia amid complete breakdown of relations with the United States and the west.

1. Promote non-proliferation
2. Support peaceful transitions
3. Protect public health
4. Constrain terrorism
Select the correct answer codeCorrect
b) 1, 2, 4
The UN has an elaborate system of imposing sanctions on member countries for not complying with UN resolutions. The UN Security Council is authorised to take action under Chapter VII of the UN Charter. Under Article 41, the sanctions cover a broad range from economic and trade sanctions to targeted measures like arms embargoes, travel bans, and financial or commodity restrictions.
According to the UN website, “The Security Council has applied sanctions to support peaceful transitions, deter non-constitutional changes, constrain terrorism, protect human rights and promote non-proliferation”.
