SECTION B (CASE STUDY BASED QUESTIONS)

For Q21- Q24
India mostly faces the problem of under nutrition; however, the problem of
over nutrition is also on the rise. Gradually, over the years, large numbers
of persons have altered their dietary patterns and lifestyles. With respect to
lifestyle, people have become more sedentary, relying on faster means of
transportation, walking less and doing less amount of outdoor or physical
activity. In large cities, even children do not play enough outdoor games.
Simultaneously dietary patterns have become less ‘healthful’. Food choices
have become less ‘healthy’ because processed foods, fast foods, snacks,
western type foods, e.g., burgers, pizzas, biscuits, chocolates, cakes and
pastries, soft drinks, even Indian mithais, samosas, etc. (that are high in
energy, sugar, fat, salt and low in other nutrients and fiber) are increasingly
becoming part of the daily diet. At the same time, intake of whole grains,
pulses, vegetables and fruits has reduced. All these lead to
undesirable/inappropriate weight gain, overweight and obesity and
ultimately lead to diseases such as hypertension, heart disease, diabetes,
cancer, arthritis, among others. These diseases are non-communicable and
take their toll not only on the physical health
but also on quality of life, adding to the financial burden.
21. Which of the following are lifestyle diseases? 1
a. Hypertension
b. Heart disease
c. Diabetes
d. All of the above
22. Intake of whole grain pulses, vegetables and pulses has decreased 1
due to which there is undesirable weight gain.
a. True
b. False
23. Which of the following is a disease caused due to undernutrition? 1
a. Diabetes
b. Arthritis
c. Rickets
d. Hypertension

24. India is said to face the double burden of malnutrition that is due 1
to
a. Lifestyle Problem
b. Over nutrition
c. Under nutrition
d. Coexistence of both under and over nutrition
For Q25- Q28

Line is defined as a mark that connects two points; it has beginning

and an end. When used as an element of design, it indicates the
shape of things. Straight lines are rigid unbroken lines and create
different effects depending on their direction. They can also express
emphasize height and give the effect of slimness, severity, dignity
and reserve. Horizontal lines signify sideways movement, create
illusion of width and reduce height. They are parallel to the ground
and give stable and placid effect. Diagonal lines increases or
decreases width and height, depending on the degree and direction
of angle. The curved lines are one with any degree of roundness. The
degree of roundness determines the curve. They give the impression
of femininity and daintiness.
