Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Ministry of Commerce and Industry

Explanation:

The India's commerce and industry ministry has started the exercise to revise base year to 2017-18 for computation of wholesale inflation with a view to present more realistic picture of the price situation

 

In May last year, the government revised the base year for WPI-based inflation to 2011-12 to give a better indication of changes in prices of commodities.

 

The new index, with 2017-18, is expected to have new items, which would provide a more realistic picture of price rise and its impact on people.

 

Most of the additions could be in the manufactured products category. Currently, the index has a total of 697 items, including primary articles, fuel and power and manufactured products.

Q:

When insulin is released, it causes

A) Amount of glucose in blood decreases B) Amount of glucose in blood increases
C) Amount of bile juice increases D) Amount of bile juice decreases
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Amount of glucose in blood decreases

Explanation:

We know that, when we eat a meal, any carbohydrates we've eaten are broken down into glucose and passed into the bloodstream. This rise in blood glucose causes insulin to be released from the pancreas so glucose can move inside the cells and be used. As glucose moves inside the cells, the amount of glucose in the bloodstream returns to normal and insulin release slows down.
