About Chilika Lake:
It is a brackish water lake and a shallow lagoon with estuarine character spread across the districts of Puri, Khurda, and Ganjam in the state of Odisha.
It is Asia’s largest brackish water lake.
Located at the mouth of the Daya River, Chilika Lake is the second-largest brackish water lagoon in the world, after the New Caledonian barrier reef in New Caledonia.
The waterspread area of Chilika varies between 900 to 1165 sq. km. during summers and monsoons, respectively.
It is connected to the Bay of Bengal by a 32 km long and 1.5 km wide channel that mostly runs parallel to the Bay, separated by a narrow spit.
Chilika Lake has several islands, such as:
Nalabana Island – Declared a Bird Sanctuary (1987)
Kalijai Island – Known for the Kalijai Temple
Other islands include Honeymoon Island, Breakfast Island, Beacon Island, Satpada Island,
In 1981, Chilika Lake was designated the first Indian wetland of international importance under the Ramsar Convention.
Biodiversity:
It is the largest wintering ground for migratory birds on the Indian subcontinent.
Birds from the Caspian Sea, Lake Baikal, Aral Sea, and other remote parts of Russia, Kirghiz steppes of Mongolia, Central and Southeast Asia, Ladakh and Himalayas come here.
White-bellied sea eagles, Graylag Geese, Purple Moorhen, Jacana, Herons, and Flamingos are among the many species which make the lake a bird watcher’s delight.
It is also home to one of the world’s largest breeding colonies of Flamingos.

Explanation:Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
Gandhinagar is facing a surge in typhoid cases linked to contaminated drinking water, exposing serious flaws in the city’s newly laid water supply system.
About Typhoid:
It is a life-threatening infection caused by the bacterium Salmonella Typhi.
Transmission:
No animals carry this disease, so transmission is always from human to human.
A person typically contracts typhoid through contaminated food and drinking water.
Once Salmonella Typhi bacteria are ingested, they multiply and spread into the bloodstream.
These bacteria are shed in the stools and urine of infected people.
Typhoid is more prevalent in places with less efficient sanitation and hygiene.
It is most prevalent in South Asia, Southeast Asia, Latin America, and sub-Saharan Africa.
Symptoms:
Symptoms include prolonged high fever, fatigue, headache, nausea, abdominal pain, and constipation or diarrhoea.
Some patients may have a rash.
Severe cases may lead to serious complications or even death.
Some people have typhoid without experiencing any symptoms.
Others continue to harbor the bacteria after their symptoms have gone.
Sometimes, the disease can appear again.
Treatment:
Typhoid fever can be treated with antibiotics.
Antimicrobial resistance is common, with the likelihood of more complicated and expensive treatment options required in the most affected regions.

Consider the following statements regarding Hydrokinetic turbines, recently seen in the news:
They use the kinetic energy of flowing water with high potential head for generation of electrical energy.
They are generally placed directly in river channels with small infrastructure.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Correct
Answer: b
Explanation:
In a major push to expand renewable energy and ensure 24×7 electricity supply, the Tripura government recently identified 10 river sites to generate 185 MW of power using Hydrokinetic Turbine Technology.
About Hydrokinetic Turbine Technology:
Hydrokinetic turbines are an emerging hydropower technology that takes advantage of moving water currents to generate power.
Unlike traditional hydroelectric dams that require larger in-channel infrastructure that can disrupt flow and the river ecosystem, hydrokinetic turbines are placed directly in the river channel and have a much smaller environmental footprint.
These turbines offer a renewable energy source by tapping into the natural flow of water in aquatic environments.
It uses kinetic energy of flowing water with practically zero potential head for generation of electrical energy, unlike conventional units, which utilize potential energy of water through construction of suitable civil structures such as dams, diversion weirs, and barrages for creation of necessary ‘Head’.
â—ŹÂ Benefits of Hydrokinetic Turbines:
Renewable Energy Source: Hydrokinetic turbines harness the steady flow of water to generate power. This clean energy source reduces reliance on fossil fuels.
Minimal Environmental Impact: These turbines operate with the natural flow of water, unlike traditional dams. It preserves ecosystems and minimizes disruption to aquatic life and landscapes.
Scalable and Flexible: Hydrokinetic turbines can be adjusted to meet different energy needs. They work well for small local setups or larger multi-turbine arrays, making them suitable for various projects.
Cost-Effective Maintenance: With fewer moving parts and strong debris protection, these turbines require less upkeep. This reduces maintenance costs and ensures reliable long-term operation.

Consider the following statements regarding of Archaea:
They thrive in extreme habitats such as hot springs, cold deserts and hypersaline lakes.
They are single-celled organisms without nucleus or organelles.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Correct
Answer: c
Explanation:
According to a study published, a DNA sequence that signals cells in almost all other organisms to stop synthesising proteins instead encodes a rare amino acid in some archaea.
Archaea, which means “ancient things” in Greek, are one of the oldest forms of life on Earth and belong to a group called the third domain of life.
Habitat: They thrive in extreme habitats such as hot springs, cold deserts and hypersaline lakes.
Characteristics of Archaea:
Archaea (singular archaeon) are a primitive group of microorganisms.
They are single-celled organisms without nucleus or organelles, and have a similar size and shape as bacteria, but differ from them biochemically.
Their membrane is made of a unique type of lipids and most archaea have a cell wall.Â
These slow-growing organisms are also present in the human gut, and have a potential relationship with human health.
They are known for producing antimicrobial molecules, and for anti-oxidant activity with applications in eco-friendly waste-water treatment.
Archaea are extremely difficult to culture due to challenges in providing natural conditions in a laboratory setting.
Many archaea live in some of the harshest environments on Earth, which makes them ideal for studying how life can survive in tough conditions.

It is a genetic disorder that affects spinal cord that causes serious childhood paralysis.
It can be prevented by having folic acid the early weeks of pregnancy.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Correct
Answer: b
Explanation:
Many countries across the world have initiated programmes to create awareness to prevent Spina Bifida through folic acid supplementation but India is yet to do so.
It is a birth defect of the spinal cord that causes serious childhood paralysis.
It occurs when the spine and spinal cord of a foetus do not fully develop during the embryonic period.
The condition occurs during early pregnancy, and can range from mild to severe.
Causes: The cause is not known. It’s thought that a combination of genetic, nutritional and environmental risk factors causes the condition.
Types of Spina Bifida
Myelomeningocele: It is the most serious form of the condition.
In this type, part of the spinal cord and nerves are exposed through a sac at the opening of the gap in the spine.
Meningocele: It is a less common type of spina bifida that occurs when the meninges, or the protective membranes around the spinal cord, push out through the opening in a fluid-filled sac.
Spina bifida occulta: It is the mildest form of the condition in which one or more of the vertebrae not forming properly, resulting in a small gap.
Symptoms: Bowel and bladder issues, back pain, weakness or lack of movement in the legs and loss of sensation in the legs.
Prevention: It can be prevented largely by having folic acid the early weeks of pregnancy.
Treatment: There is no cure for the condition; however, treatment options are available to manage symptoms.
