    REDUNDANT - ProProfs

    REDUNDANT

    • Expanded

    • Insufficient

    • Profound

    • Numerous

    Correct Answer
    A. Insufficient
    Explanation
    The word "redundant" means unnecessary or superfluous. The given answer "insufficient" is a synonym of "not enough" or "not adequate". Both words convey a lack or shortage of something. Therefore, "insufficient" can be seen as the opposite of "redundant" because it implies a lack or insufficiency rather than an excess or redundancy.

    In an in Vitro study, 160 white cats were injected with Salt X. 160 other white cats were injected with placebo. In two weeks, 39% of the white cats, who were injected with Salt Xshowed symptoms of Kay fever. Hence it can be concluded that Kay fever is caused by some elements similar to the elements in Salt X. Which of the following statements would most seriously weaken the above discussion? - ProProfs

    In an in Vitro study, 160 white cats were injected with Salt X. 160 other white cats were injected with placebo. In two weeks, 39% of the white cats, who were injected with Salt Xshowed symptoms of Kay fever. Hence it can be concluded that Kay fever is caused by some elements similar to the elements in Salt X. Which of the following statements would most seriously weaken the above discussion?

    • People suffering from Kay fever are the victims of the golden viper of Sindh

    • One among the 160 white cats had already showed symptoms of Kay fever prior to the experiment

    • The natural habitats of white cats does not contain any of the elements found in Salt X.

    • The 160 white cats used in the experiment were kept isolated from each other

    • The scientists administered the injections being ignorant of the contents of the salt used

    Correct Answer
    A. One among the 160 white cats had already showed symptoms of Kay fever prior to the experiment
    Explanation
    The statement that one among the 160 white cats had already showed symptoms of Kay fever prior to the experiment weakens the conclusion that Kay fever is caused by elements similar to those in Salt X. This suggests that the cat's symptoms could have been unrelated to the injection of Salt X, and therefore undermines the link between the symptoms and the elements in Salt X.

    Wall chalking on public property should be outlawed. Radicals and fanatics have no right to use public property when promoting their unsavory views. The argument above is based on the idea: - ProProfs

    Wall chalking on public property should be outlawed. Radicals and fanatics have no right to use public property when promoting their unsavory views. The argument above is based on the idea:

    • The general public has an interest in the free exchange of different political views

    • Radicals and fanatics prefer the use of public property while propagating their viewpoint

    • Any promotional activity, which is against public interest, should be protected by law

    • Every person who uses wall chalking for the promotion of ideas is a radical or fanatic.

    Correct Answer
    A. Every person who uses wall chalking for the promotion of ideas is a radical or fanatic.
    Explanation
    The given answer is not supported by the argument. The argument states that radicals and fanatics have no right to use public property for promoting their views, but it does not imply that every person who uses wall chalking for the promotion of ideas is a radical or fanatic. The argument is focused on the act of wall chalking and the negative impact it has on public property, rather than making a generalization about all individuals who engage in wall chalking.
