Read the following passage carefully and answer the given questions.
Theory of Evolution
The evolution of life is a gradual process through which simple organisms are transformed into complex life forms over billions of years. It involves genetic changes, adaptation to the environment, and the emergence of diversity in species. Fossil records provide evidence of extinct life forms and transitional stages. Evolution is influenced by factors such as mutation, genetic recombination, and environmental pressure, shaping the biodiversity we see today. Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace were pioneering naturalists who developed the theory of evolution by natural selection.
Alfred Russel Wallace, a naturalist, arrived at conclusions similar to Darwin while working in:

The structure in the ovary from which corpus luteum formed is known as:

If \(A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}\alpha & \beta \\ \gamma & -\alpha\end{array}\right]\) is such that \(A^2=I\), then:

Which of the following is incorrect with reference to drug abuse?

Read the passage carefully and answer the Questions
Aldehydes, carboxylic acids and ketones are widespread in the animal and plant kingdoms.
They play a pivotal role in various biochemical processes of life. Their presence in nature adds fragrance and flavor. These compounds are widely used in food products, pharmaceuticals, paints, resins and other important product industries. These compounds are prepared by various laboratory methods, which mainly include oxidation, formylation, acylation and reduction. Due to the polar nature of the carbonyl group in aldehydes and ketones, they can exhibit different reactions like nucleophilic addition. They do exhibit redox and various condensation reactions which lead to the formation of various important compounds. On the other hand, the carboxylic acids are mainly prepared by oxidation and hydrolysis of different compounds. The carboxylic acid consists of a carbonyl group and the hydroxy group (attached to the carbonyl carbon atom). This makes it possible for the carboxylic acid to participate in various chemical reactions which involve cleavage of the C-OH bond and the O_H bond along with the reactions involving the complete -COOH group.
The products formed when 2,2-Dimethylpropan-1-al is heated with concentrated KOH are :

If \(X+Y=\left(\begin{array}{ll}7 & 0 \\ 2 & 5\end{array}\right)\) and \(X-Y=\left(\begin{array}{ll}3 & 0 \\ 0 & 3\end{array}\right)\), then \(X\) and \(Y\) are:

The liquid which causes formation of poisonous gas when exposed to sunlight in presence of air or oxygen (\(\text{O}_2\)), is:
