General Science and Ability Past Paper 2020

A real disaster opens the General Science and Ability past paper 2020. Q.2 recalls the avalanche that hit the Pakistan military base in the Gayari sector and asks candidates to describe avalanches and their four types. The same question covers global wind and pressure patterns and the earthquake that struck Valdivia in Chile in 1960. Q.3 tests pesticides, carbohydrates, and food preservation. Q.4 separates natural radioactivity from artificial radioactivity and explains fossils. Q.5 covers hepatitis, the OSI model, and GPS. Section-B sets mean, median and mode, systematic sampling, blood group probability, and an inheritance sum where a son takes double a daughter’s share.
