In which part of our body RBC formed?

  • Q. In which part of our body RBC formed?
  • filter_dramaExplanation
    Answer is : C

    The correct answer is Bone-marrow.

    Key Points

    Red blood cell:

    • Red blood cells (RBCs) are the most common type of blood cell and the vertebrate's principal means of delivering oxygen to the body tissues via blood flow through the circulatory system.
    • RBC is formed in Bone Marrow.
    • RBCs take up oxygen in the lungs, or in fish the gills, and release it into tissues while squeezing through the body's capillaries.
    • The cytoplasm of erythrocytes is rich in hemoglobin, an iron-containing biomolecule that can bind oxygen and is responsible for the red color of the cells and the blood.
    • Each human red blood cell contains approximately 270 million of these hemoglobin molecules.
    • The cell membrane is composed of proteins and lipids, and this structure provides properties essential for physiological cell function such as deformability and stability while traversing the circulatory system and specifically the capillary network.

    Additional Information

    • Red blood cells are thus much more common than the other blood particles: there are about 4,000–11,000 white blood cells and about 150,000 - 400,000 platelets per microliter.
    • Human red blood cells take on average 60 seconds to complete one cycle of circulation.
    • The blood's red color is due to the spectral properties of the hemic iron ions in hemoglobin.
    • Each hemoglobin molecule carries four heme groups; hemoglobin constitutes about a third of the total cell volume.
    • The normal pH range of blood is between 7.35 to 7.45. This means that blood is naturally slightly alkaline or basic.

    Which pair of protocols will use only single TCP connections between the same client and the server?

    Choose the most appropriate answer among the given pairs.

  • filter_dramaExplanation
    Answer is : D

    Hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP):

    • HTTP is used to access data on the world wide web. HTTP functions as a combination of FTP and SMTP. HTTP uses the services of TCP port number 80. HTTP is a stateless protocol.
    • HTTP prior to version 1.1 specified a non-persistent connection, while a persistent connection is a default.
    • In a non-persistent connection, one TCP connection is made for each request/ response. The client opens a TCP connection and sends a request and server sends the response then closes the connection.


    File Transfer Protocol (FTP):

    • FTP stands for file transfer protocol. It is provided by TCP/IP for copying a file from one host to another. FTP can transfer a file through one of the following three modes: stream mode, block mode and compressed mode. Stream mode is the default mode.
    • FTP uses two TCP connections one for data and another for control.

    Simple Transfer Protocol (SMTP):

    • SMTP is a push protocol, it can push the messages from the client to the server only.
    • SMTP uses one TCP connection at a time


    TELNET:

    • TELNET is a client/ server application that allows a user to log on to a remote machine, giving the user access to the remote system.
    • TELNET uses one TCP connection at a time.

    Important Point:

    Option 1 is not correct since HTTP might have more than one TCP connections for a single web page.

    A critical section is a program segment

  • filter_dramaExplanation
    Answer is : C

    Explanation:-

    Critical section:- A Critical section is a program segment where shared resources are accessed. Only when a process is in its critical section can it be in a position to disrupt other processes. We can avoid race conditions by making sure that no two processes enter their critical sections at the same time.

    Here is the diagram of the critical section program as follows:

    do{

    entry section

           critical section

    exit section

           remainder section

    } while (true);   
     Important Points

    • A minimum of variables are required to be shared between processes to solve the critical section problem.
    • If a process is executing in its critical section, then no other processes can be executed in its critical section.

    Additional InformationDeadlock:- A deadlock is a situation in which two computer programs sharing the same resource are effectively preventing each other from accessing the resources, resulting in both programs ceasing to function.

    Semaphores in the operating system:- semaphores are integer variables that are used to solve the critical section problem by using two atomic operations, wait and signal that is used for process synchronization.
