About this paper
A Sir Adnan one-liner booklet headed '1000- PMS 2026 GK / ONE-LINER (Origionally PMS SCREENING Syllabus BREAKDOWN)' from the monster-data 'PMS SCREENING 2026 GK UPDATED' pack (74 pp). This file publishes Q901-1000 only, the FINAL part of the booklet, in the standard MCQ format with verified answers and explanations: 44 published, 56 dropped, 0 corrections, 1 NOTE keyFlag. DROPPED as internal duplicates of earlier chunks of the same booklet (cross-linked, not re-extracted): Q903 (= Q360), Q904 (= Q248), Q905 (= Q247), Q906 (= Q363), Q908 (= Q314), Q909 (= Q219), Q910 (= Q221), Q913 (= Q220), Q918 (= Q401), Q919 (= Q402), Q920 (= Q406), Q923 (= Q409), Q924 (= Q410), Q929 (= Q429), Q933 (= Q229), Q934 (= Q232), Q936 (= Q230), Q939 (= Q233), Q940 (= Q323), Q941 (= Q267), Q942 (= Q268), Q943 (= Q238), Q944 (= Q236 subset), Q946 (= Q276), Q951 (= Q918/Q401), Q952 (= Q919/Q402), Q954 (= Q420), Q955 (= Q422), Q957 (= Q470), Q958 (= Q433), Q959 (= Q434), Q961 (= Q517), Q963 (= Q424), Q965 (= Q541, same stem different facet), Q967 (= Q427), Q968 (= Q435), Q969 (= Q523), Q970 (= Q441), Q971 (= Q442), Q974 (= Q481), Q975 (= Q482), Q976 (= Q464), Q977 (= Q465), Q982 (= Q467, same stem different facet), Q983 (= Q588), Q984 (= Q582), Q985 (= Q617), Q987 (= Q577), Q988 (= Q574), Q989 (= Q575), Q990 (= Q576), Q991 (= Q520/Q627), Q992 (= Q591/Q626), Q995 (= Q903, same chunk), Q996 (= Q313), Q997 (= Q906/Q363, same chunk). GATE: see work/gate_pms1000_q901_1000.py - the 3-of-5 first-stem hits in two mock files are single-item template false matches (one vitamin-deficiency item matching three stems at 0.6); the CSS MPT EDS 1000 file's 3 genuine vitamin-deficiency matches are items of a different booklet, and the Q901-1000 compilation as a whole is new, so it is published as paperType 'practice', never as a past paper. The 1000 one-liner booklet is now FULLY converted (Q1-1000); its extracted PDF is removed from work/pms-screening/ after this run.

44 solved MCQs shown directly below
Correct Answer: Fat-soluble
Vitamins A, D, E and K are fat-soluble: they dissolve in fat, are stored in the body's fatty tissues and liver, and are absorbed with dietary fat.
Correct Answer: Water-soluble
Vitamins B and C are water-soluble: they dissolve in water, are not stored in large amounts, and must be taken regularly in the diet.
Correct Answer: Osteoporosis
Calcium deficiency causes osteoporosis in the standard one-liner sense: too little calcium weakens bones and lowers bone density.
Correct Answer: Energy from glucose
Respiration releases energy from glucose: cells break down glucose with oxygen to release the energy stored in it, producing carbon dioxide and water.
Correct Answer: Energy currency of cells
ATP is the energy currency of cells: adenosine triphosphate stores energy released by respiration and delivers it wherever the cell needs work done.
Correct Answer: Two identical daughter cells
Mitosis produces two identical daughter cells: one parent cell divides into two genetically identical cells, each with the same chromosome number.
Correct Answer: Gametes with half chromosomes
Meiosis produces gametes with half chromosomes: the two divisions halve the chromosome number, so each sex cell carries one set of chromosomes.
Correct Answer: DNA
Genetic material is transmitted via DNA: the DNA sequence is copied and passed from parent to offspring, carrying the hereditary instructions.
Correct Answer: Change in DNA sequence
Mutation is a change in DNA sequence: an alteration in the base sequence of DNA that can change the protein made from a gene.
Correct Answer: Herbivores, carnivores, omnivores
Consumers include herbivores, carnivores and omnivores: animals that obtain energy by eating plants, other animals, or both.
Correct Answer: Fungi & bacteria
Decomposers include fungi and bacteria: they break down dead organic matter and return its nutrients to the soil.
Correct Answer: Large ecosystem type
Biome refers to a large ecosystem type: a large region such as desert, tundra or tropical rainforest defined by its climate, plants and animals.
Correct Answer: Chlorophyll, carotenoids
Photosynthetic pigments include chlorophyll and carotenoids: chlorophyll captures light for photosynthesis and carotenoids assist and protect the process.
Correct Answer: Photosynthesis & respiration
The oxygen cycle involves photosynthesis and respiration: plants release oxygen in photosynthesis and organisms consume it in respiration.
Correct Answer: Atmospheric N2 to usable form
Nitrogen fixation converts atmospheric N2 to a usable form: nitrogen-fixing bacteria turn inert nitrogen gas into ammonia that plants can absorb.
Correct Answer: Nutrient cycling
Soil microbes help in nutrient cycling: bacteria and fungi decompose organic matter and recycle nitrogen, carbon and other nutrients through the soil.
Correct Answer: Algae & pondweeds
Aquatic plants include algae and pondweeds: plants that live in water, from free-floating algae to rooted pondweeds.
Correct Answer: Warm-blooded vertebrates with hair
Mammals are warm-blooded vertebrates with hair: they maintain a constant body temperature, have hair or fur, and feed their young with milk.
Correct Answer: Frogs & salamanders
Amphibians include frogs and salamanders: animals that typically begin life in water and live on land as adults.
Correct Answer: Three body segments & six legs
Insects have three body segments and six legs: head, thorax and abdomen, with three pairs of legs attached to the thorax.
Correct Answer: Spiders & scorpions
Arachnids include spiders and scorpions: eight-legged arthropods with two body segments, distinct from six-legged insects.
Correct Answer: Alveoli
The lungs contain alveoli: tiny air sacs where oxygen passes into the blood and carbon dioxide passes out.
Correct Answer: Live-attenuated, inactivated or mRNA
Vaccines can be live-attenuated, inactivated or mRNA: weakened live germs, killed germs, or messenger-RNA instructions are all used to train immunity.
Correct Answer: Population from infectious diseases
Herd immunity protects a population from infectious diseases: when enough people are immune, the disease cannot spread easily and the unvaccinated are shielded too.
Correct Answer: Misuse of antibiotics
Antibiotic resistance is caused by misuse of antibiotics: overuse and incomplete courses let resistant bacteria survive and multiply.
Correct Answer: Disease prevention & health promotion
Public health includes disease prevention and health promotion: sanitation, vaccination, health education and disease surveillance that protect whole populations.
Correct Answer: Global warming & extreme weather
Climate change leads to global warming and extreme weather: rising greenhouse gases warm the planet and intensify heatwaves, storms, droughts and floods.
Correct Answer: Ozone depletion
CFCs contribute to ozone depletion: chlorofluorocarbons released into the atmosphere break down ozone in the stratosphere, thinning the ozone layer.
Correct Answer: Evaporation, condensation, precipitation
The water cycle includes evaporation, condensation and precipitation: water evaporates from surfaces, condenses into clouds and falls back as rain or snow.
Correct Answer: Chemical, physical, biological
Water pollution types include chemical, physical and biological: dissolved chemicals, suspended solids and heat, and disease-causing organisms in water.
Correct Answer: Aquatic ecosystems due to nutrient overload
Eutrophication affects aquatic ecosystems due to nutrient overload: excess nitrogen and phosphorus trigger algal blooms that deplete oxygen in the water.
Correct Answer: Degradation of land in arid areas
Desertification is degradation of land in arid areas: fertile dryland loses its productivity and turns desert-like through overuse, drought and climate change.
Correct Answer: Sustainable Development Goals
SDGs stand for Sustainable Development Goals: the United Nations' 17 goals for ending poverty, protecting the planet and ensuring prosperity by 2030.
Correct Answer: Zero Hunger
SDG 2 focuses on Zero Hunger: ending hunger, achieving food security and improved nutrition, and promoting sustainable agriculture.
Correct Answer: Industries, vehicles, burning fossil fuels
Air pollution sources include industries, vehicles and burning fossil fuels: factories, traffic and combustion release smoke, gases and particulates into the air.
Correct Answer: Human health & wildlife
Noise pollution affects human health and wildlife: loud, persistent sound causes hearing loss and stress in people and disturbs animal communication and behaviour.
Correct Answer: Astronomy & wildlife behavior
Light pollution affects astronomy and wildlife behaviour: excessive artificial light at night obscures the stars and disrupts nocturnal animals' navigation and rhythms.
Correct Answer: WWF, Greenpeace
Environmental NGOs include WWF and Greenpeace: non-governmental organisations working for conservation and against environmental damage.
Correct Answer: Health & nutrition
Food adulteration harms health and nutrition: adding inferior or harmful substances to food lowers its nutritional value and can cause illness.
Correct Answer: Nutritional quality
Food fortification improves nutritional quality: adding vitamins and minerals to staple foods raises their nutrient content, as with iodised salt and fortified flour.
Correct Answer: Vitamin & mineral-related diseases
Micronutrient deficiency causes vitamin- and mineral-related diseases: too little of a vitamin or mineral produces its deficiency disease, such as scurvy or goitre.
Correct Answer: Cholera, Typhoid, Diarrhea
Waterborne diseases include cholera, typhoid and diarrhea: diseases spread through water contaminated with bacteria and other pathogens.
Correct Answer: Conservation & long-term food security
Sustainable fisheries promote conservation and long-term food security: catching fish within replenishment limits keeps stocks healthy for future harvests.
Correct Answer: Protect ecosystems & human health
Global environmental awareness aims to protect ecosystems and human health: public understanding of environmental threats drives conservation and cleaner practices.
