UNDER GRADUATE PROGRAMME IN FASHION TECHNOLOGY PAPER-II - MANAGERIAL ABILITY TEST question paper is as given below:

Directions (Q. Nos. 1-10) : Study the situation given below and answer these questions.
On November 26, 1993, the airport police caught a youth Sravan Kumar trying to smuggle 98 dried
bear gall bladders out the country. They looked like shriveled black mangoes, and no one but an expertcould
say that the weird looking things came from an animal. Even experts could falter in identifying the species of
the animal the gall bladders came from. This if thegall bladders came from the Himalayan brown bear as the
airport police suspected, then Sravan Kumar should have been prosecuted under the law. Actually drugs made
from bear gall bladder are used in Tibetan medicine as cures for various ailments including joint aches,
rheumatism, cataracts, gall stones, cancer and even as aphrodisiacs. Since these drugs are highly reputed
(despite their being actually useless), the intact gall bladders of bear sell in the international markets at
phenomenal rates. This has caused poaching of bearsand the consequent fall in bear population.
Sravan Kumar understood that he had been caught red-handed. The best way to circumvent the law
was to deny that these were bear gall bladders. Consequently he asserted that the gall bladders had been taken
out from pigs and not from bears. Since pig is not protected species in the Act, Sravan Kumar could goscot
free. He banked upon the fact that the gall bladders of large mammals look quite alike and extremely difficult to
distinguish one from the other. In effect, the question belonged to pigs or to bears. It was at this state that the
airport police asked for my help.
Despite common belief, forensic science doesn’t enter to solving murders, killings or assassinations.
Forensic science is the application of scientific knowledge to solve any legal dispute. Since here thepolice did
face a legal dilemma, forensic science could come to their rescue.
During recent years, the law enforcement agencies involved in protecting wildlife are increasingly
turning to forensic sciences to bring the culprits to book. Protected animals are killed either because of false
beliefs in the curative powers of medicines made form their body part, or because of their valuable furs or hides
or sometimes just for plain fun. Poaching of elephants for ivory is a common problem. But ivory comes from a
number of sources (as many as fifteen), and often the criminals find it convenient to assert the ivoryis illegal,
trading in the ivory of now extinct mammoths and mastodons is totally legal (where there would hardly a point
in making it illegal, since mammoths and mastodons are already extinct). These is synthetic ivory too,which is
plastic like material. Whenever smugglers are caught with ivory, their standard answer is that the ivory is from a
mammoth which is completely legal.
Forensic science once again comes to the rescue ofwildlife officers. It helps in differentiating Ivory
coming various sources. Mammoth ivory is usually darker than elephant ivory, since it contains traces of iron
which has oxidized over time, but that is not always the case. The best way ivory from various sourcescan be
distinguished is by observing what are known as Schreyer lines. Ivory is criss-crossed by dentinal tubules,
which can be seen under a scanning electron micro-scope (SEM) as straight lines. These tubules were first
described by a German researcher Schreger, after whom these lines are named. These Schreger lines forma
unique pattern in each species. For instance, whilein elephants, these lines always meet at an angle greater than
110 degrees, in mammoths, the form is a very conveniently basis for differentiating between the ivories of
mammoth and elephant.
