Consider the following statements about organ transplantation:

1.        Human body tissue cannot be used for transplantation.

2.        Organs can't be used for transplantation when there is instant death due to road accident. 

Which of the statements given above is/are correct? 

A.  1 only

B.  2 only 

C.  Both 1 and 2

D. Neither 1 nor 2

B

That is correct. 

In addition to organs, one can also donate tissue. Tissues is composed of layers of cells that function together to serve a specific purpose. Cornea is one of the most commonly transplanted tissues each year. 

In India, a large number of people die due to road traffic accidents. People that die due to these circumstances are unable to donate their organs. As organs need to be transplanted as soon as possible following the donor’s death. Organs come from people who are certified as dead while on a ventilator in a hospital intensive care unit. A deceased donor is kept on a ventilator after he or she has been declared brain dead until the organs can be harvested.

shouldn't the answer be D?

as eyes can be harvested for corneal transplantation even after instant death.

“George left his job to pursue a training course. After completion of training, he did not get the job as per his preference and at the expected wage.”

With reference to the data given above, which type of unemployment situation is depicted?

A. Disguised unemployment

B. Structural unemployment

C. Frictional unemployment

D. Seasonal unemployment

A

Disguised Unemployment is correct. 

i think answer should be C.frictional unemployment

because the unemployment is between switching the jobs.and he did not accept the job.i.e.he is still unemployed.

disguised unemployment implies he is visibly employed,but actually unemployed as there are lower wages.(that would mean he has already accepted the job,which in this case,he hasn't.)

is it possible?
