 Hello everyone, welcome to Chanakya IAS Academy's current affair MCQs. Let's see today's questions. Question number one. Which of the following countries are member of the Five Eyes Alliance? 1. Australia 2. India 3. Canada 4. Japan 5. USA 6. Russia Options are A. 1, 3 and 5, B. 2, 4 and 6, C. 1, 3, 4 and 6, D. 2, 3, 4 and 5. Correct answer is A. 1, 3 and 5. Ever since the Canadian Prime Minister suggested that the Indian government might have potential ties to the assassination of a six separatist leader and supporter of the Khalistan movement in Canada, the relationship between these two nations has become strained. The Prime Minister's claim finds support in reports from the Five Eyes Alliance. The Five Eyes is an intelligence coalition consisting of countries such as Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States. These nations are signatories to the multinational UK-USA agreement, a treaty focused on cooperative efforts in signals intelligence. Question number two. Fuel cell technology is related to which of the following? A. Solar energy B. Wind energy C. Green hydrogen energy D. Nuclear energy The correct answer is C. Green hydrogen energy. At the core of this innovation lies fuel cell technology which utilizes hydrogen as a fuel source. Within a fuel cell, hydrogen and oxygen engage in an electrochemical reaction, producing electrical energy and water as byproducts. Fuel cells offer distinct advantages over traditional batteries including superior efficiency, extended range and quicker refueling times. Question number three. Which of the following statements are true regarding the recent report on salt consumption in India by WHO? One. The salt intake was significantly higher among women. B. The study notes that salt intake was higher in employed people. The options are A. One only. B. Two only. C. Both one and two. D. None of the above. The correct answer is B. Two only. The estimated mean daily salt intake in India stands at 8 grams. 8.9 grams a day for men and 7.1 grams a day for women. Against the World Health Organization recommendation of up to 5 grams daily, a study has found. The salt intake was significantly higher among men, those in rural areas and overweight and obese respondents according to a recent survey by the Indian Council of Medical Research published in the journal Nature. The study notes that salt intake was higher in employed people as in 8.6 grams and tobacco users 8.3 grams and those with high blood pressure 8.5 grams. Question number four. Which Indian city is the host of Vinderji India 2023 summit? A. Hyderabad B. Chennai C. Bengaluru D. Kochi The correct answer is B. Chennai. The fifth international trade fair and conference Vinderji India 2023 summit is set to commence in Chennai, the capital city of Tamil Nadu. As part of the success of the Indo-Danish Energy Partnership, a big delegation will be participating in the Vinderji India 2023 summit. Denmark had a renewable energy capacity of 2.3 gigawatt. Question number five. Necroptosis sometimes seen in the news is related to which of the following. The options are A. It is a form of regulated cell death in the human brain. B. The drug approved by the Indian Medical Association for Alzheimer's disease. C. It is a treatment procedure for the recovery of people affected by AIDS. D. A new organic and sustainable method to treat nuclear waste water. The correct answer is A. It is a form of regulated cell death in the human brain. The scientists have recently figured out the process of the death of the brain cells that can help in Alzheimer's treatment. Cell death usually happens as an immune response to infection or inflammation and rits the body of undesirable cells. When the supply of nutrients collapses, the cells well up destroying a plasma membrane. The cells get inflamed and die off. The amyloid and tau are the abnormal proteins that develop in the brain. Cells in the Alzheimer's patients get inflamed when amyloid protein gets into neurons in the brain. The amyloids clumps into so-called plaques and the fiber-like tau protein forms its on bundles known as tau tangles. Neurons exposed to amyloid plaques and tau tangles initiate a cell death process called necroptosis. Necroptosis or cell death is a direct connection between these abnormal proteins amyloid or tau.
