Out of ‘X’ pairs of ribs in humans only ‘Y’ pairs are true ribs. Select the option that correctly represents values of X and Y and provides their explanation

A

X= 12, Y = 5 True ribs are attached dorsally to vertebral column and sternum on the two ends

B

X = 24, Y = Z True ribs are dorsally attached to vertebral column but are free on ventral side

C

X = 24, Y= 12 True ribs are ventrally attached to vertebral column but are free on dorsal side

D

X = 12, Y = 7 True ribs are attached dorsally to vertebral column and ventrally to the sternum

Identify the given figure and select the correct option representing X, Y and Z.

(True/ false) There are 12 pairs of ribs in human body.

Assertion: First seven pairs of ribs are called true ribs. Reason: These ribs are not connected ventrally to the sternum.

Column I represents diseases and column II represents their symptoms. Choose the correctly paired option

Statement 1 : If -2h=a+b , then one line of the pair of lines a x^2+2h x y+b y^2=0 bisects the angle between the coordinate axes in the positive quadrant. Statement 2 : If a x+y(2h+a)=0 is a factor of a x^2+2h x y+b y^2=0, then b+2h+a=0 Both the statements are true but statement 2 is the correct explanation of statement 1. Both the statements are true but statement 2 is not the correct explanation of statement 1. Statement 1 is true and statement 2 is false. Statement 1 is false and statement 2 is true.

(True/false) There are 14 pairs of ribs.

The equation a^2x^2+2h(a+b)x y+b^2y^2=0 and a x^2+2h x y+b y^2=0 represent (a)two pairs of perpendicular straight lines (b)two pairs of parallel straight lines (c)two pairs of straight lines which are equally inclined to each other (d)none of these

If the pairs of lines x^(2) – 2nxy - y^(2) = 0 and x^(2) – 2mxy - y^(2) = 0 are such that one of them represents the bisectors of the angles between the other, then

If the pair of lines sqrt(3)x^2-4x y+sqrt(3)y^2=0 is rotated about the origin by pi/6 in the anticlockwise sense, then find the equation of the pair in the new position.
