'Statins', are produced by which of the following microbe?

Enzymes that cut the DNA at specific locations are known as :

Read the following passage carefully and answer the given questions.
Bioactive molecule, cyclosporin A, that is used as an immunosuppressive agent in organ-transplant patients, is produced by the fungus Trichoderma polysporum. Statins produced by the yeast Monascus purpureus have been commercialised as blood-cholesterol lowering agents. It acts by competitively inhibiting the enzyme responsible for synthesis of cholesterol. Baculoviruses are pathogens that attack insects and other arthropods. The majority of baculoviruses used as biological control agents are in the genus Nucleopolyhedrovirus. These viruses are excellent candidates for species-specific, narrow spectrum insecticidal applications. They have been shown to have no negative impacts on plants, mammals, birds, fish or even on non-target insects. BOD refers to the amount of the oxygen that would be consumed if all the organic matter in one liter of water were oxidised by bacteria. The sewage water is treated till the BOD is reduced. Cheese, is one of the oldest food items in which microbes were used. Different varieties of cheese are known by their characteristic texture, flavour and taste. For example, the large holes in 'Swiss cheese' are due to production of a large amount of CO₂ by a bacterium named Propionibacterium sharmanii.
The greater the BOD of waste water-

Read the passage carefully and give the answers to the question :
India was amongst the first countries in the world to initiate action plans and programmes at a national level to attain total reproductive health as a social goal.
These programmes called 'family planning' were initiated in 1951 and were periodically assessed over the past decades. Improved programmes covering wider reproduction-related areas are currently in operation. Creating awareness among the people about various reproduction-related aspects and providing facilities and support for building up a reproductively healthy society are the major tasks under these programmes.

In an a. c. series LCR circuit, the applied voltage is \(v=(100 \sqrt{2}) \sin (\omega t+\pi / 4)\) volt. Given that \(R=30 \Omega, X_L=50 \Omega\) and \(X_C=10 \Omega\). The value of power dissipated in the circuit is

If \(y=\frac{1}{1+x^{b-a}+x^{a-a}}+\frac{1}{1+x^{a-b}+x^{a-b}}+\frac{1}{1+x^{a-c}+x^{b-c}}\) then \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}\) is:

The cartesian equation of the plane whose intercepts on the coordinate axes are 2, -3 and 4 is:

Pipe A can fill a tank three times faster than pipe B.
If both pipes A and B are running together, they can fill the tank in 12 minutes.
Then the time taken by pipe B alone to fill the tank is :
