Which among the following best describes ‘Lycodon irwini’, recently seen in the news?
Correct
Answer: b
Explanation:
Researchers recently confirmed the discovery of Lycodon irwini, a glossy black wolf snake, on Great Nicobar Island.
About Lycodon irwini:
It is a new species of snake.
It was discovered on the remote Great Nicobar Island at the southern tip of the Nicobar Islands.
The snake, which is a member of the Lycodon subcinctus group, was named in honour of the late Australian conservationist and television personality, Stephen Robert Irwin.
It is a striking glossy-black wolf snake that had remained unidentified for years because it closely resembles another widespread species.
The new research finally confirms that the Great Nicobar population represents a distinct species currently known only from the island.
One of the most notable features of Lycodon irwini is its uniform glossy black colour, unlike close relatives that typically have white bands or patches.
The snake is slender, nocturnal, and can grow close to 1.2 metres in length.
The researchers also documented a higher number of belly and tail scales compared to similar species.

With reference to Vitamin K, consider the following statements:
It is a fat-soluble vitamin.
It helps to make proteins that are needed for blood clotting and the building of bones.
It is found throughout the body, including the liver, brain, heart, pancreas, and bone.
How many of the above statements are correct?
Correct
Answer: c
Explanation:
Vitamin K, often overlooked, is vital for blood clotting, bone strength, and heart health.
About Vitamin K:
It is a fat-soluble vitamin that comes in two forms.
The main type is called phylloquinone (Vitamin K1), found in green leafy vegetables like collard greens, kale, and spinach.
The other type, menaquinones (Vitamin K2), are found in some animal foods and fermented foods.
Menaquinones can also be produced by bacteria in the human body.
Vitamin K helps to make various proteins that are needed for blood clotting and the building of bones.
Prothrombin is a vitamin K-dependent protein directly involved with blood clotting.
Osteocalcin is another protein that requires vitamin K to produce healthy bone tissue.
Vitamin K is found throughout the body, including the liver, brain, heart, pancreas, and bone.
It is broken down very quickly and excreted in urine or stool.
Because of this, it rarely reaches toxic levels in the body even with high intakes, as may sometimes occur with other fat-soluble vitamins.
Why Do Modern Diets Often Cause Vitamin K Deficiency?
Many people fall short of Vitamin K not because food is scarce but because daily diets lack greens and fermented foods.
Over-frying or overcooking vegetables also destroys much of the vitamin.
Long-term antibiotic use, liver disease, or fat-absorption disorders can further lower Vitamin K levels since it is fat-soluble and requires dietary fat for absorption.
Vitamin K deficiency can contribute to significant bleeding, poor bone development, osteoporosis, and increased cardiovascular disease.
