Which primary geopolitical shift followed the conclusion of the Second World War?
💡 Explanation:The Second World War fundamentally changed the global political order. The traditional European Great Powers were economically and militarily exhausted, leading to a diminished global influence. The primary geopolitical shift was the emergence of the United States and the Soviet Union as the two dominant global superpowers, ushering in the bipolar world order of the Cold War. The League of Nations was a product of World War I. Decolonization and the subsequent dissolution of European empires was a major consequence of this power shift, but the shift itself is defined by the rise of the two non-European superpowers.

Rural-to-urban migration for work most directly impacts Pakistan’s traditional joint family structure by:
💡 Explanation:Urbanization and rural-to-urban migration are key factors driving the shift from the traditional joint family system to nuclear family arrangements in Pakistan's urban centers. This change is primarily a result of the economic pressures, limited living space, and changing occupational structure (from agrarian to industrial/service sectors) that make large, extended family cohabitation difficult in cities.

Which feature is the primary mechanism for maintaining the separation of powers in a presidential system?
💡 Explanation:A presidential system is characterized by a strict separation of the executive and legislative branches (Separation of Powers). The 'system of checks and balances' is the primary mechanism designed to prevent any one branch from acquiring excessive power by allowing each branch to limit or scrutinize the others' actions, thereby maintaining the functional separation. Options A and D are characteristics typically found in a Parliamentary System, where there is a fusion of the executive and legislative branches. Option B is also a feature of some Parliamentary or Semi-Presidential systems, not a Presidential one.

Which scientific discovery fundamentally introduced probabilistic laws over strict determinism at the atomic level?
💡 Explanation:Quantum Theory, through key concepts like the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle and the probabilistic nature of the wave function (Born Rule), established that the precise, simultaneous determination of conjugate variables (like position and momentum) is fundamentally impossible. This inherent, non-reducible uncertainty invalidates the strict determinism that characterized classical Newtonian mechanics when applied to the atomic scale.

Which vitamin class must be consumed regularly due to limited body storage and easy excretion?
💡 Explanation:Water-soluble vitamins (e.g., Vitamin C and B-complex) dissolve in water and are not stored in significant amounts by the body, leading to their rapid excretion via urine. Consequently, they must be consumed regularly. Fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) are absorbed and stored in the body's fatty tissues and liver, meaning they do not require daily intake.
