Which fund under UNFCCC specifically supports developing countries in meeting the costs of climate change adaptation?
- Green Climate Fund
- Adaptation Fund
- Least Developed Countries Fund
- Special Climate Change Fund
Answer: Adaptation Fund
Adaptation Fund (established under Kyoto Protocol) finances concrete adaptation projects in vulnerable developing countries. Funded by 2% share of CDM proceeds and donations. India has accessed funds for community-based adaptation. [[MoEFCC, UNFCCC Reports]]
Integrated disease surveillance under One Health monitors pathogens at the ________ interface to prevent spillover events.
- Human-Animal-Environment
- Urban-Rural
- Land-Water
- Local-Global
Answer: Human-Animal-Environment
One Health surveillance links human health, veterinary, wildlife, environmental data to detect zoonotic threats early (e.g., Nipah, avian flu). India's IDSP incorporates animal health components. [[MoHFW, MoEFCC Reports]]
True or False: Supercritical CO₂ extraction is used to obtain caffeine-free coffee and essential oils without toxic solvent residues.
- True
- False
Answer: True
scCO₂ is non-toxic, non-flammable, easily removed by depressurization. Selective extraction by tuning pressure/temperature. Widely adopted in food, pharma, cosmetics industries. Embodies green chemistry principles. [[NCERT Chemistry Class 12]]
High-temperature superconductors typically belong to which material class?
- Cuprates
- Iron-based pnictides
- Nickelates
- All of these
Answer: All of these
Cuprates (e.g., YBCO, Tc~90K), iron pnictides (e.g., SmFeAsO, Tc~55K), nickelates (recent discovery) exhibit superconductivity above liquid nitrogen temperature. Mechanism remains unsolved; key for lossless power transmission. [[NCERT Physics Class 12, DST Reports]]
The National Digital Literacy Mission measures competency in using digital devices, internet, and ________ services.
- Banking
- Government
- Healthcare
- All of these
Answer: All of these
Digital literacy includes accessing e-governance (DigiLocker, UMANG), digital payments (UPI), teleconsultations. PMGDISHA curriculum covers these practical skills for rural empowerment. [[MeitY Reports]]
True or False: Mainstreaming climate action into sectoral policies (energy, transport, agriculture) is essential for achieving India's NDCs.
- True
- False
Answer: True
NDCs require cross-ministerial coordination: renewable targets (MNRE), EV promotion (DHI), climate-smart agriculture (MoA). NITI Aayog facilitates policy coherence. Critical for credible, implementable climate strategy. [[NITI Aayog, MoEFCC Reports]]
AI-driven drug repurposing identifies new uses for existing drugs by analyzing:
- Molecular similarity
- Gene expression signatures
- Clinical trial data
- All of these
Answer: All of these
Machine learning integrates chemical, genomic, clinical data to predict drug-disease associations. Accelerates therapy discovery (e.g., baricitinib for COVID-19). CSIR-OSDD pioneered open-source repurposing platforms. [[CSIR, ICMR Reports]]
Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) can be produced from ________ via Fischer-Tropsch synthesis.
- Coal
- Natural gas
- Biomass/waste
- All of these
Answer: Biomass/waste
SAF from agricultural residues, municipal waste, algae via thermochemical/biochemical routes. Drop-in fuels compatible with existing aircraft; reduce lifecycle emissions by up to 80%. India's SAF policy under development. [[MoCA, MNRE Reports]]
