CAT Question of the Day A team of three members is to be formed from a group of four boys (A, B, C and D) and four girls (E, F, G and H). One of the three members is selected as the team leader. The three members cannot be all boys or all girls. Neither B nor H can be selected as the team leader. E will be part of a team only if she is selected as the team leader. G will not be a part of the team, if either F or C are present. D will be part of the team if and only if A is present.
How many teams can be formed, if the team leader is a boy?
(Note: Two teams, comprising the same members, but with different team leaders must be seen as different teams)
| OPTIONS | | |  | 1) | 8 | | | 2) | 9 | | | 3) | 10 | | | 4) | None of these |
Tip of the Day Be prepared to be flexible in your approach while attempting mock papers. There have been occcasions in past CATs where questions that have traditionally appeared in one section have been moved to another. Last year's Question of the day (28-Jul-12) Answer the question based on the passage given below. The Cattle Egret has two geographical races which are sometimes classified as full species, the Western Cattle Egret, B. ibis, and Eastern Cattle Egret, B. coromandus. The two forms were split by McAllan and Bruce, but were regarded as conspecific by almost all other recent authors until the publication of the influential Birds of South Asia. The eastern subspecies B. (i.) coromandus, described by Pieter Boddaert in 1783, breeds in Asia and Australasia, and the western nominate form occupies the rest of the species range, including the Americas. Some authorities recognise a third Seychelles subspecies, B. i. seychellarum, which was first described by Finn Salomonsen in 1934. Which of the following isn't true about the Cattle Egret? | OPTIONS | | | | | 1) | Birds of South Asia opened the eyes of authors to the possibility that the Western Castle Egret and the Eastlern Castle Egret are two separate species. | | | 2) | The Castle Egret was believed to have just one species and two forms. | | | 3) | It is impossible to find Eastern and Western species in the same area. | | | 4) | Ibis and coromandus are names for the Western and Eastern species | | | 5) | A third Seychelles sub species of the Cattle Egret is believed to exist by some authorities. |
