Direction: Read the following passage and answer the questions below.
Diabetes is a metabolic disease caused due to the excess of blood sugar level in human body. An excessive quantity of sugar in blood, damages other vital organs. Though, it is caused by the under production of insulin hormone by the pancreas, it is also a life style disease, caused due to unhealthy dietary habits and lack of physical exercise. Diabetes can be classified into the following general categories:
Type 1 diabetes (due to β-cell destruction, usually leading to absolute insulin deficiency)
Type 2 diabetes (due to a progressive insulin secretory defect on the background of insulin resistance).
Assigning a type of diabetes to an individual often depends on the circumstances present at the time of diagnosis, with individuals not necessarily fitting clearly into a single category. For example, some patients cannot be clearly classified as having type 1 or type 2 diabetes. Clinical presentation and disease progression may vary considerably in both types of diabetes.
The traditional paradigms of type 2 diabetes occurring only in adults and type 1 diabetes only in children are no longer accurate, as both diseases occur in both cohorts.
Occasionally, patients with type 2 diabetes may present with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Children with type 1 diabetes typically present with the hallmark symptoms of polyuria / polydipsia and occasionally with DKA. The onset of type 1 diabetes may be variable in adults and may not present with the classic symptoms seen in children. However, difficulties in diagnosis may occur in children, adolescents, and adults, with the true diagnosis becoming more obvious over time.
What is the major difference between Type 1 and Type 2 of Diabetes?
Type 1 is caused by lack of insulin and Type 2 is due to insulin resistance.
Type 1 is caused by excessive production of blood sugar and Type 2 by lack of insulin.
Type 1 is caused by lack of insulin and Type 2 is by overproduction of insulin.
Type 1 is caused by lack of sugar and Type 2 is caused by overproduction of sugar.
Correct answer
Type 1 is caused by lack of insulin and Type 2 is due to insulin resistance.

जापान के चेतावनी राडार ने हमले के लगभग एक घण्टे पूर्व दक्षिण जापान की ओर बढ़ रहे इन अमरीकी विमानों को चिह्नित करके सम्भावित हवाई हमले की रेडियो से चेतावनी दे दी थी। सुबह लगभग 8 बजे हिरोशिमा के राडार चालक ने देखा कि विमानों की संख्या केवल तीन ही है, इसलिये उसने माना कि यह टोही विमान हैं और कोई हमला नहीं होने जा रहा। अपने ईंधन और हवाई जहाजों को बचाने की दृष्टि से जापानी वायुसेना ने अमरीकी जहाजों पर प्रतिरोधी हवाई आक्रमण नहीं किया। अगर जापान के राडार पहचान लेते कि ये बमवर्षक विमान हैं तो शायद अधिक गम्भीर प्रयास किये जाते। लक्ष्य पर स्थानीय समय के अनुसार सुबह 8:15 पर बम फैंका गया। 60 किलोग्राम यूरेनियम-235 वाले 'लिटिल बॉय' नामक अणुबम को हवाई जहाज से फैंके जाने के बाद शहर से लगभग 2,000 फीट की, फटने की ऊँचाई, तक पहुंचने में 57 सेकण्ड लगे। हवा के विपरीत बहाव के कारण यह अपने निर्धारित लक्ष्य 'इयोई ब्रिज' से करीब 800 फीट दूर 'शीमा सर्जिकल क्लिनिक' के ऊपर फटा। धमाका लगभग 13 किलोटन टी.एन.टी. के बराबर था। परिणामस्वरूप लगभग 1.6 कि.मी. का इलाका पूरी तरह ध्वस्त हो गया। 11 वर्ग कि.मी. का क्षेत्र आग की लपटों में घिरकर जल गया। अमरीकी अधिकारियों के अनुसार इस बम से 12 वर्ग कि.मी. का इलाका पूरी तरह ध्वस्त हुआ था। जापानी अधिकारियों ने दावा किया कि हिरोशिमा नगर की 69 प्रतिशत इमारतें पूरी तरह नष्ट हो गयीं और इसके अलावा 6-7 प्रतिशत भवनों को आंशिक क्षति पहुँची। इसके बावजूद अमरीकी वैज्ञानिकों के अनुसार यू-235 वाला यह अस्त्र नाकाम रहा, क्योंकि इसने ईंधन के केवल 1.38 प्रतिशत का ही सक्रिय उपयोग किया था।
हमले के बाद 7 अगस्त से 9 अगस्त के बीच जापान के सम्राट हिरोहितो व उनकी युद्ध सलाहकार समिति समर्पण के स्वरूप और शर्तों पर विचार कर रही थी, लेकिन अमरीकी सरकार को अपने एक और बम का परीक्षण कर प्रभाव का सटीक आकलन करना था और उसे दुनिया को दिखाना भी था। इसलिए जापान के समर्पण तैयारी को जानते हुए भी 9 अगस्त को दक्षिणी जापान के बन्दरगाह नगर नागासाकी पर 11 बजकर, 1 मिनट पर 6.4 किलो प्लूटोनियम-239 वाला 'फैट मैन' नाम का दूसरा बम गिराया गया। 43 सेकण्ड के बाद ज़मीन से 1,540 फीट की ऊँचाई पर यह बम फटा और इससे 21 किलोटन टी.एन.टी. के बराबर धमाका हुआ। परिणामस्वरूप 3,900 डिग्री सेल्सियस की ऊष्मा उत्पन्न हुई और हवा की गति 1005 कि.मी. प्रति घण्टे तक पहुँच गयी। इससे तत्काल हुई मौतों की संख्या का अनुमान 40,000 से 75,000 के बीच था। 1945 के अन्त तक यह आँकड़ा 80,000 तक जा पहुँचा।
17 अगस्त या 18 अगस्त को जापान पर तीसरा अणु हमला होना था। इसी क्रम से सितम्बर में तीन और अक्टूबर में 3 हमले करने की भी योजना थी। उधर जापान के सम्राट स्थिति को तुरन्त काबू में करना चाहते थे,जबकि सोवियत संघ ने भी जापान के विरुद्ध युद्ध की घोषणा कर दी थी। अन्ततः जापान ने 14 अगस्त को समर्पण कर दिया। इस प्रकार जापान के समर्पण के साथ ही विश्व इतिहास के सर्वाधिक निर्मम आक्रमण और सर्वाधिक संहारक अस्त्र के परीक्षण का पटाक्षेप हुआ।
उपरोक्त गद्यांश के अनुसार 17 अगस्त या 18 अगस्त को जापान पर कौन सा हमला होने वाला था?
पहला परमाणु हमला
दूसरा परमाणु हमला
तीसरा अणु हमला
चौथा परमाणु हमला

Correct answer

जापान के चेतावनी राडार ने हमले के लगभग एक घण्टे पूर्व दक्षिण जापान की ओर बढ़ रहे इन अमरीकी विमानों को चिह्नित करके सम्भावित हवाई हमले की रेडियो से चेतावनी दे दी थी। सुबह लगभग 8 बजे हिरोशिमा के राडार चालक ने देखा कि विमानों की संख्या केवल तीन ही है, इसलिये उसने माना कि यह टोही विमान हैं और कोई हमला नहीं होने जा रहा। अपने ईंधन और हवाई जहाजों को बचाने की दृष्टि से जापानी वायुसेना ने अमरीकी जहाजों पर प्रतिरोधी हवाई आक्रमण नहीं किया। अगर जापान के राडार पहचान लेते कि ये बमवर्षक विमान हैं तो शायद अधिक गम्भीर प्रयास किये जाते। लक्ष्य पर स्थानीय समय के अनुसार सुबह 8:15 पर बम फैंका गया। 60 किलोग्राम यूरेनियम-235 वाले 'लिटिल बॉय' नामक अणुबम को हवाई जहाज से फैंके जाने के बाद शहर से लगभग 2,000 फीट की, फटने की ऊँचाई, तक पहुंचने में 57 सेकण्ड लगे। हवा के विपरीत बहाव के कारण यह अपने निर्धारित लक्ष्य 'इयोई ब्रिज' से करीब 800 फीट दूर 'शीमा सर्जिकल क्लिनिक' के ऊपर फटा। धमाका लगभग 13 किलोटन टी.एन.टी. के बराबर था। परिणामस्वरूप लगभग 1.6 कि.मी. का इलाका पूरी तरह ध्वस्त हो गया। 11 वर्ग कि.मी. का क्षेत्र आग की लपटों में घिरकर जल गया। अमरीकी अधिकारियों के अनुसार इस बम से 12 वर्ग कि.मी. का इलाका पूरी तरह ध्वस्त हुआ था। जापानी अधिकारियों ने दावा किया कि हिरोशिमा नगर की 69 प्रतिशत इमारतें पूरी तरह नष्ट हो गयीं और इसके अलावा 6-7 प्रतिशत भवनों को आंशिक क्षति पहुँची। इसके बावजूद अमरीकी वैज्ञानिकों के अनुसार यू-235 वाला यह अस्त्र नाकाम रहा, क्योंकि इसने ईंधन के केवल 1.38 प्रतिशत का ही सक्रिय उपयोग किया था।
हमले के बाद 7 अगस्त से 9 अगस्त के बीच जापान के सम्राट हिरोह��तो व उनकी युद्ध सलाहकार समिति समर्पण के स्वरूप और शर्तों पर विचार कर रही थी, लेकिन अमरीकी सरकार को अपने एक और बम का परीक्षण कर प्रभाव का सटीक आकलन करना था और उसे दुनिया को दिखाना भी था। इसलिए जापान के समर्पण तैयारी को जानते हुए भी 9 अगस्त को दक्षिणी जापान के बन्दरगाह नगर नागासाकी पर 11 बजकर, 1 मिनट पर 6.4 किलो प्लूटोनियम-239 वाला 'फैट मैन' नाम का दूसरा बम गिराया गया। 43 सेकण्ड के बाद ज़मीन से 1,540 फीट की ऊँचाई पर यह बम फटा और इससे 21 किलोटन टी.एन.टी. के बराबर धमाका हुआ। परिणामस्वरूप 3,900 डिग्री सेल्सियस की ऊष्मा उत्पन्न हुई और हवा की गति 1005 कि.मी. प्रति घण्टे तक पहुँच गयी। इससे तत्काल हुई मौतों की संख्या का अनुमान 40,000 से 75,000 के बीच था। 1945 के अन्त तक यह आँकड़ा 80,000 तक जा पहुँचा।
17 अगस्त या 18 अगस्त को जापान पर तीसरा अणु हमला होना था। इसी क्रम से सितम्बर में तीन और अक्टूबर में 3 हमले करने की भी योजना थी। उधर जापान के सम्राट स्थिति को तुरन्त काबू में करना चाहते थे,जबकि सोवियत संघ ने भी जापान के विरुद्ध युद्ध की घोषणा कर दी थी। अन्ततः जापान ने 14 अगस्त को समर्पण कर दिया। इस प्रकार जापान के समर्पण के साथ ही विश्व इतिहास के सर्वाधिक निर्मम आक्रमण और सर्वाधिक संहारक अस्त्र के परीक्षण का पटाक्षेप हुआ।
