Comprehension: (Que No. 1 - 8)
Directions: Read the following passage and answer the questions by choosing the correct/most appropriate options.
ENEMIES OF THE PANTHER
The panther has no natural enemies in the forest. It might get a severe trouncing from a lion or a tiger if caught red-handed at their kill, or get gored by a boar if it indulges in undue familiarity. But, as a rule the panther avoids measuring its strength against the bigger denizens of the forest, and has really no serious enemy in Nature to contend with.
what really keeps the panther population in check is the limited food supply in the forest. Out of a litter of four cubs born on an average of once in two years, no more than one reaches maturity. Despite this low rate of survival the panther population would soon get out of hand, but for food acting as a limiting factor.
Not having any enemies in Nature, the panther does the next best thing and that is to grow its own enemy in the shape of its bewitching coat. Coveted by ladies in Europe and America, sought as a symbol of might by the chieftains in Africa, and prized as a worthwhile trophy by sportsmen the world over, the pelt of the panther has really proved to be its undoing. Thus, man and man alone is the only serious enemy of the panther.

Read the passage given below and answer the questions by choosing the correct/most appropriate options
1. Sleep is one of the strangest things we do each day. The average adult will spend 36 percent of his or her life asleep. For one-third of our time on earth, we transition from the vibrant, thoughtful, active organisms we are during the day to power down into a quiet state of hibernation at night.
2. But what is sleep, exactly? Why is it so important and restorative for our bodies and minds? How does it impact our lives when we are awake?
3.Sleep serves multiple purposes that are essential to our brain and body. The first purpose of sleep is restoration. Every day, our brain accumulates metabolic waste as it goes about its neural activities. while this is completely normal, too much accumulation of these waste products has been linked to neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease.
4.Alright, so how do we get rid of metabolic waste? Recent research has suggested that sleep plays a crucial role in cleaning out the brain each night. While these toxins can be flushed out during working hours. researchers have found that clearance during sleep is as much as two-fold faster than during waking hours. The way this process occurs is fairly remarkable.
5.During sleep, brain cells actually shrink by 60% allowing the brain's waste-removal system-called the glymphatic system-to essentially "take out the trash" more easily. The result? Our brain is restored during sleep, and you wake up refreshed and with a clear mind.
6.The second purpose of sleep is memory consolidation. Sleep is crucial for memory consolidation. Insufficient or fragmented sleep can hamper our ability to form both concrete memories and emotional memories.
7.Finally,sleep is paramount for metabolic health. Studies have shown that when you sleep 5.5 hours per night instead of 8.5 hours per night, a lower proportion of energy you burn comes from fat, while more comes from carbohydrates and protein. This can predispose to fat gain and muscle loss. Additionally, insufficient sleep or abnormal sleep cycles can lead to insulin insensitivity and metabolic syndrome, increasing our risk of diabetes and heart disease.
