Question Discussion & Solution

Today most countries in the world have a Constitution. While all democratic countries are likely to have a Constitution, it is not necessary that all countries that have a Constitution are democratic.

Important Points

Key features of the Indian Constitution:

• Federalism:
  • This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country.
  • In India, we have governments at the state level, at the centre and Panchayati Raj at the village level.
  • The Constitution contains lists that detail the issues that each tier of government can make laws on.
  • In addition, the Constitution also specifies where each tier of government can get the money from, for the work that it does.
  • All persons in India are governed by laws and policies made by each of these levels of government.
• Parliamentary form of government:
  • The people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives. Also, every citizen of the country, irrespective of his/her social background, can contest in elections.
• Separation of powers:
  • There are 3 organs of government:
    • The legislature: refers to elected representatives by the people.
    • The executive: is a smaller group of people who are responsible for implementing laws and running the government.
    • The judiciary: refers to the system of courts in India.
  • Each organ mentioned above acts as a check on the other organs of government. This ensures the balance of power between all three.
• Fundamental rights:
  • The constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State as well as against other individuals. It also guarantees the rights of minorities against the majority.
  • The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include:
    • Right to Equality
    • Right to Freedom
    • Right against Exploitation
    • Right to Freedom of Religion
    • Cultural and Educational Rights
    • Right to Constitutional Remedies

From the above, we can conclude that the Presidential form of government is not a feature of the Indian constitution.

The correct answer is Copper.

Key Points

• Conductor of electricity
  • In physics and electrical engineering, a conductor is an object or type of material that allows the flow of charge in one or more directions.
  • Materials made of metal are common electrical conductors. 
  • Copper is considered to be a conductor because it conducts the electron current or flow of electrons fairly easily. Most metals are considered to be good conductors of electrical current. Copper is just one of the more popular materials that are used for conductors. Hence, Option 4 is correct.
  • If you have to define the meaning of electrical conductors in the simplest way, they are materials that allow electricity to flow through them easily.
  • If we compare two types of material and the first one allows better flow of electricity through it, then that material is said to be a good conductor of electricity.
  • An electrical conductor allows the electric charges to easily flow through them. The property of conductors to conduct electricity is called conductivity.
  • Such materials offer less opposition or resistance to the flow of charges.
  • Conducting materials allow easy charge transfer because of the free movement of electrons through them.

Additional Information

• • Some examples of conductors of electricity are
    • Copper
    • Aluminum
    • Silver
    • Gold
    • Graphite
