Everyday Science

White light splits into seven distinct colors when passed through a prism, commonly known as the colors of the visible spectrum: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.

The outermost layer of the Sun is called the corona, which is the Sun's outer atmosphere visible during a solar eclipse. The other options do not refer to any layer of the Sun.

NASA's Mars rover named Curiosity has been exploring Mars since its landing in 2012. The other options are not names of Mars rovers.

The density of water at standard temperature and pressure is approximately 1 gram per cubic centimeter (1 g/cm³), which is a well-established scientific fact.

The stomach primarily functions as a storage organ for food before it is digested. It temporarily holds the ingested food, mixing it with gastric juices for digestion.

Burning fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, which increases the greenhouse effect and contributes to global warming.

The gas giants in the solar system are Jupiter and Saturn. Uranus and Neptune are often classified as "ice giants" due to their different compositions, which include more ices such as water, ammonia, and methane, compared to the primarily hydrogen and helium composition of Jupiter and Saturn. Therefore, the traditional gas giants are Jupiter and Saturn, which corresponds to option C. Options A and B incorrectly include Uranus and/or Neptune as gas giants, and option D incorrectly lists inner planets.

Vitamin D deficiency leads to rickets, a condition characterized by weak or soft bones in children due to impaired calcium absorption. Night blindness is caused by vitamin A deficiency, scurvy by vitamin C deficiency, and hair fall is not directly linked to vitamin D deficiency.

CNG stands for Compressed Natural Gas, which is a fuel gas consisting primarily of methane compressed to less than 1% of the volume it occupies at standard atmospheric pressure.

Crookes glass is specially designed to block ultraviolet rays, making it effective in cutting UV radiation. The other types of glass listed do not have this specific property.
