 Section 1
(30 Marks)

In this section, a few questions are provided that are based on certain Learning Objectives
(L.O.). You need to read them carefully and do the following tasks for each question.

1. Provide the correct Blooms Taxonomy (1 Mark)

2. Provide the correct Difficulty Level in which they fall. (1 Mark)
3. Check whether the given questions are developed on the given Primary LO. Primary LO is
the main concept on which the question is based on. (1 Mark)
4. Check whether Secondary LO is correct. Secondary LO is a concept which will be used
additionally apart from the Primary LO to solve a question. In case no Secondary LO is
provided then provide Secondary LO if required. If not required leave it blank. There can be
more than one Secondary LO. (1 Mark)
5. Check whether the given question is conceptually correct or not. (1 Mark)

For reference, use the parameters given in the screenshot below to provide the required
Blooms Taxonomy and Difficulty level to each question.

Difficulty Level Parameters (NEET + JEEM)

 Easy  Involves use of 1-2 concepts
Medium  Involves use of 2-3 concepts or use of 2 concepts + Application of 1 concept
  Involves use of 3 or more concepts or use of 3 concepts + Application of 2 or
Difficult more concepts used
