Explanation
Biotechnology can also be employed to develop functional foods with health-promoting properties and to reduce food waste while promoting sustainability in food production. Additives, enzyme processing, and fermentative processes are key techniques that can be used to improve food quality and shelf life. ND5-07-2023

Explanation
AB-positive blood type is known as the “universal recipient” because AB-positive patients can receive red blood cells from all blood types. The blood group system was discovered by Austrian physician Karl Landsteiner in 1901. He identified the ABO blood group system, ND5-07-2023

Explanation
Sir Isaac Newton's three law of motions In 1686 , he presented his three laws of motion in the “ Principia Mathematica Philosophiae Naturalis .” In the first law, an object will not change its motion unless a force acts on it. In the second law, the force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration. In the third law, when two objects interact, they apply forces to each other of equal magnitude and opposite direction. ND5-07-2023

Explanation
If the sum of the digits of a number is divisible by 3, then the number is also divisible by 3. Here, 9+9+6=24 is multiple of 3. So,  996  is the largest number divisible by 3 ND5-07-2023

Explanation
Area = (9 x 12) : 2 = 54 square unit ND5-07-2023

Explanation
Let the two  numbers be x and x+66. Since the LCM is 360, there must be 5,2 and 3 as the prime factors of the two numbers. So, one pair is 24 & 90, because 90−24=66. Also, 24=2×2×2×3 90=2×3×3×5 ∴ LCM=2×2×2×3×3×5=360. So, the numbers are 24 and 90. ND5-07-2023

Skin is the external largest organ of the human body It is a vital organ with a fleshy surface covered with hair, nerves, glands, and nails. It covers your whole body and acts as a barrier between the outside and the inside environment. while  The largest solid internal organ is the liver

The Winter Olympics 2022 game was held in China ** 91 countries are participating in the 2022 winter Olympics China nabbed its first gold medal on February 5, 2022, at Beijing Olympics 2022. The 2022 Winter Olympics is an ongoing international winter multi-sport event  *** North Korea   country has been suspended from the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics by the International Olympic Committee *** the  Summer Olympics in 2020 host:   Japan the   Winter Olympics in 2022 host:  China the   Summer Olympics in 2024 host:  France the   Winter Olympics in 2026 host:   Italy the S ummer Olympics in 2028 host the   USA

Explanation
The blue colour of the sky is due to the scattering of light by the atmospheric particles. Light of shorter wavelengths scatters more than the light of longer wavelengths and the violet colour has a shorter wavelength , but our eyes are more sensitive to blue light. Hence, the colour of a clear sky is blue.

Explanation
The retina is a thin layer of tissue that lines the back of the eye on the inside. It is located near the optic nerve. The purpose of the retina is to receive light that the lens has focused, convert the light into neural signals, and send these signals on to the brain for visual recognition ND_11_7-2023 SH10-8-2023
