Question

Four test tubes A, B, C and D with different liquids are taken. Test tube A contains glucose solution;
test tube B contains turmeric solution, test tube C contains detergent solution and test tube D
contains pure water. Which of the following will you observe when you put ?
(a) a piece of blue litmus paper in each test tube
(b) a piece of red litmus paper in each test tube
(c) few drops of phenolphthalein solution to each test tube
Change in colour

(i) ARemains blueTurns blueTurns pink
(ii) BTurns redRemains redColourless
(iii) CRemains blueTurns blueTurns pink
(iv) DRemains blueTurns blueColourless

The correct answer is
(i) and (iii) are correct.

The question asks to identify the problem among the options that is inter-disciplinary, meaning it involves content or skills from two or more distinct academic fields.

Analysis of Options:

  1. Draw the mirror image of a given figure.

Discipline: Geometry / Spatial Reasoning.

  1. How many lines of symmetry are there in a given figure.

Discipline: Mathematics / Geometry.

  1. Write your name and draw the lines of symmetry in each alphabet wherever possible.

This problem requires skills from two different fields:

  • Language Arts / Writing: The task requires writing and recognition of letters (the name).
  • Mathematics / Geometry: The task requires analytical knowledge of symmetry applied to those letterforms.
  • Draw the lines of symmetry in a given geometrical figure.

Discipline: Geometry.

Final Conclusion

The problem in Option 3 uniquely combines language (writing) with geometric principles, making it inter-disciplinary.

The correct option is Option 3.
