Verbal Reasoning QUESTION #8102

Question 4563

$t$ is a positive integer and $\dfrac{4}{7} = \dfrac{t}{s}$.

Compare:

Column A: $s$

Column B: $7$

Column A is greater
Column B is greater
The two quantities are equal
The relationship cannot be determined from the information given✔️

Correct Answer Logic:

From $\dfrac{4}{7} = \dfrac{t}{s}$, we get $s = \dfrac{7t}{4}$.

Since $t$ is a positive integer, different values of $t$ yield different results:

If $t = 4$: $s = 7$ → Column A $=$ Column B (equal)
If $t = 8$: $s = 14 > 7$ → Column A is greater
If $t = 2$: $s = 3.5 < 7$ → Column B is greater

Since the result changes depending on $t$, the relationship cannot be determined from the information given.

Chemistry QUESTION #1435

Question 4565

In glycolysis, the enzyme hexokinase catalyzes the conversion of:

Glucose to glucose-6-phosphate✔️
Pyruvate to lactate
Fructose-6-phosphate to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate
None of these

Correct Answer Logic:

Hexokinase is the first enzyme of glycolysis. It catalyzes the phosphorylation of glucose using ATP: $\text{Glucose} + \text{ATP} \xrightarrow{\text{hexokinase}} \text{Glucose-6-phosphate} + \text{ADP}$. This irreversible step traps glucose inside the cell. Phosphofructokinase-1 catalyzes the conversion of fructose-6-phosphate to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate.

Hypoglycemia with generalized weight loss
Hyperglycemia, central (truncal) obesity with peripheral muscle wasting, reflecting cortisol's catabolic effect on peripheral tissue combined with lipogenic effects centrally✔️
Hyperkalemia with hyponatremia
Isolated hypotension with no metabolic change

Administration QUESTION #9563

Question 4571

The concept of 'span of control' and 'organizational levels' are inversely related. A government ministry decides to increase the span of control of its Joint Secretaries from 4 to 8 subordinates. What organizational consequence necessarily follows?

The organization becomes taller with more hierarchical levels to maintain effective supervision
The organization becomes flatter with fewer hierarchical levels, reducing communication layers but increasing supervisory load✔️
The organization requires more managers to maintain the same ratio of supervision across all levels
The organization shifts from functional to geographic departmentalization to manage the wider supervisory responsibility

Correct Answer Logic:

Span of control and organizational levels are inversely related: wider span = fewer levels (flatter structure); narrower span = more levels (taller structure). Increasing span from 4 to 8 means each manager supervises more people, reducing the need for additional management tiers — producing a flatter hierarchy with fewer intermediary levels.
