Read the following passage and answer the item that follows. Your answers to this item should be based on the passage only. Many farmers use synthetic pesticides to kill infesting insects. The consumption of pesticides in some of the developed countries is touching 3000 grams/hectare. Unfortunately, there are reports that these compounds possess inherent toxicities that endanger the health of the farm operators, consumers and the environment. Synthetic pesticides are generally persistent in environment. Entering in food chain they destroy the microbial diversity and cause ecological imbalance. Their indiscriminate use has resulted in development of resistance among insects to insecticides, upsetting of balance in nature and resources of treated populations. Natural pest control using the botanical pesticides is safer to the user and the environment because they break down into harmless compounds within hours or days in the presence of sunlight. Plants with pesticidal properties have been in nature for millions of years without any ill or adverse effects on the ecosystem. They are easily decomposed by many microbes common in most soils. They help in the maintenance of biological diversity of predators and human health hazards. Botanical pesticides formulated from plants are biodegradable and their use in crop protection is a practical sustainable alternative. Which of the following statements is/are correct regarding biopesticides? 1. They are not hazardous to human health. 2. They are persistent in environment. 3. They are essential to maintain the biodiversity of any ecosystem. Select the correct answer using the code given below.
A shared variable x, initialized to zero, is operated on by four concurrent processes W, X, Y, Z as follows. Each of the processes W and X reads x from memory, increments by one, stores it to memory, and then terminates. Each of the processes Y and Z reads x from memory, decrements by two, stores it to memory, and then terminates. Each process before reading x invokes the P operation (i.e., wait) on a counting semaphore S and invokes the V operation (i.e., signal) on the semaphore S after storing x to memory. Semaphore S is initialized to two. What is the maximum possible value of x after all processes complete execution?
Consider a process executing on an operating system that uses demand paging. The average time for a memory access in the system is M units if the corresponding memory page is available in memory, and D units if the memory access causes a page fault. It has been experimental measured that the average time taken for a memory access in the process is X units. Which one of the following is the correct expression for the page fault rate experienced by the process?
Which of the following statement about computer memory are true?  A. Secondary storage is non-volatile storage.  B. Video memory found in graphics cards is volatile memory.  C. Primary memory (RAM) is the fastest form of memory in a computer.  Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Assume a memory access to main memory on a cache "miss" takes 30 ns and a memory access to the cache (on a cache "hit") takes 3 ns. If 80% of the processor's memory requests results in a cache "hit", what is the average memory access time?
The question given below consists of a statement, followed by three arguments numbered I, II and III. You have to decide which of the arguments is/are ‘strong’ arguments and which is/are ‘weak’ arguments and accordingly choose your answer from the alternatives given below each question. Statement: The imposition of Governor’s rule in Jammu and Kashmir will not affect operations in the state, according to Army Chief General, even as security forces are looking at higher intensity of operations against terrorists, to force them to ‘hibernate’. These operations will be based on greater level of intelligence from the J&K Police, as compared to what was being generated during the suspension of operations for the holy month of Ramzan. A challenge, however, for the security forces still remains the recruitment of local terrorists. Why? Arguments: I. Meanwhile, data shared by security forces reveal that there are about 210 terrorists currently operating in Kashmir, mainly in the South. Out of this, 65 per cent are locals and the remaining are foreign terrorists.  II. In South Kashmir itself, the maximum number of terrorists belong to the HizbulMujahideen, while some are from the Lashkar-e-Toiba and Jaish-e-Mohammed. III. When a local terrorist is killed during an operation, at his funeral more locals are willing to join terrorism. It is a mob mentality.
