Let y be a discrete random variable, taking values \(y_1, y_2, y_3, ..., y_n\) with probabilities \(p_1, p_2, p_3, ..., p_n\) respectively. Then the standard deviation of y is given by:
- A \(E(y^2) - [E(y)]^2\)
- B \(\sqrt{E(y^2) - [E(y)]^2}\)
- C \(\sqrt{E(y)^2+[E(y)]^2}\)
- D \(E(y^2) + [E(y)]^2\)

- Read the following passage carefully and answer the given questions.
Insulin consists of two short polypeptide chains- chain A and chain B, that are linked together by disulphide bridges. Some strains of Bacillus thuringiensis produce proteins that kill certain insects such as lepidopterans, coleopterans and dipterans. Bt toxin protein is converted into an active form of toxin due to the alkaline pH of the gut which solubilise the crystals. Transgenic animals that produce useful biological products can be created by the introduction of the portion of DNA (or genes) which codes for a particular product such as human protein (alpha-1-antitrypsin) used to treat emphysema. Plants, bacteria, fungi and animals whose genes have been altered by manipulation are called Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO). GM plants have been useful in many ways. Genetic modification has: (i) made crops more tolerant to abiotic stresses. (ii) reduced reliance on chemical pesticides (pest-resistant crops). (iii) helped to reduce post harvest losses. (iv) increased efficiency of mineral usage by plants (this prevents early exhaustion of fertility of soil). (v) enhanced nutritional value of food.
