Answer
- Few years back, there was scarcity of milk in various parts of India. At some places, milk and milk products were abundant but they did not reach all the consumers.
- Dr. Verghese Kurien ^ho was then the founder director of Anand Milk Union Limited (AMUL) started thecooperative movement in the direction to produce “operation flood”, i.e. abundance of milk everywhere.
- The use of biotechnology was also done to increase the milk production.
- Dr. Kurien’s efforts have reached all-time high status as India is now self-sufficient in dairy business.
- This is popularly known as White Revolution. Different experiments were performed for quality control, newer dairy products were thought off and preservation methods were improved.
- This created White Revolution. AMUL from Anand has now reached international standards.

A student did an experiment with a convex lens. He put an object at different distances 25cm, 30cm, 40cm, 60cm and 120cm from the lens. In each case he measured the distance of the image from the lens. His results were 100cm, 24cm, 60cm, 30cm and 40cm, respectively. Unfortunately his results are written in wrong order:
- Rewrite the image distances in the correct order.
- What would be the image distance if the object distance was 90cm?
- Which of the object distances gives the biggest image?
- What is the focal length of this lens?
When water is added gradually to a white solid $X, $ a hissing sound is heard and a lot of heat is produced forming a product $Y.$ A suspension of $Y$ in water is applied to the walls of a house during white washing. A clear solution of $Y$ is also used for testing carbon dioxide gas in the laboratory.
→- What could be solid $X?$ Write its chemical formula.
- What could be product $Y?$ Write its chemical formula.
- What is the common name of the solution of $Y$ which is used for testing carbon dioxide gas$?$

If the teeth are not cleaned regularly, they become covered with a sticky yellowish layer W of food particles and bacteria. Since layer W covers the teeth, the alkaline liquid X secreted by glands Y inside the mouth cannot reach the teeth surface to neutralise the acid formed by the action of organisms Z on sugary food, and hence tooth decay sets in.
- What is W known as?
- What is (i) X, and (ii) Y?
- What are organisms Z?
- State one way of removing layer W from the teeth.
