Question Discussion & Solution

The correct answer is Shark — Tortoise — Otter.

Key Points

• Shark - Scientists believe that sharks came into existence around 400 million years ago. It is believed that they descended from a small leaf-shaped fish that had no eyes, bones on fins.
  • These fish then evolved into two main groups of fish that are found today.
  • Bony fish and cartilaginous fish which include shark and Chimaira.
  • Sharks are on the top of the marine food chain and are the only huge marine reptiles that exist today.
• Tortoise is believed to have existed for 250 million years.
  • They belong to the reptile species of the family Testudinidae.
  • Tortoise has a hard shell to protect from the outside environment. They are believed to have evolved from very large body sizes of around 100 kgs. They are among the longest-living land animals in the world.
• Otters are believed to have existed on earth for the past 23 million years.
  • They have evolved significantly and have gone through many adaptations to survive till this time.

Additional Information

• They have the ability to move both on water and land except sea otters. The rest of the otters have webbed feet which help them to move in the water.
• They have five toes which help them to move on land as well. It is believed that they were once land animals only but they ended up going in the water to be safe from predators.
• It is also believed that the food sources were available in limited quantities on land so they started hunting in water to survive.

Concept:

A functional dependency is a constraint between two sets of attributes from the database.

Explanation:

In general form, a functional dependency denoted by X -> Y between two sets of attributes X and Y that are subsets of R specifies a constraint on the possible tuples that can form a relation state r of R.

The constraint is that for any two tuples T₁ and T₂ in r that have T₁[X] = T₂[Y], they must also have T₁[Y]

= T₂[Y]. It means that values of Y component of a tuple in r depend on or are determined by the value of X component.

If a relation R contains attributes (X and Y). Then X -> Y is a functional dependency. It means X functionally determines Y in R if and only if two tuples agree on their X value, they must necessarily agree on their Y value.

• Apiculture is the technique of scientific rearing of honey bees in a specially designed wooden box.
• The essential elements for beekeeping are smoker, safety dress, moveable hive, honey extractor and hive tool.
• Sericulture is the process of rearing of silkworms to produce raw silk.
• Sericulture is the production of raw silk by means of raising caterpillars (larvae), those of the domesticated silkworm.
• Silk is a continuous filament within each cocoon.

Additional Information

According to the information given in the question, we can draw the following diagram.

Thus Anusha is 9 km towards east with respect to initial position.

Hence, the correct answer is "9 km, East".

In the mixed series, the letter added 2 and number added 12 we get-

 Hence, "76" is the correct answer.
