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.

💡 Explanation:Stream of consciousness is a narrative technique that attempts to simulate the natural, often fragmented, flow of a character's thoughts and feelings (interiority).

What key technical factor fundamentally altered international field hockey, contributing significantly to Pakistan’s decline?
💡 Explanation:Pakistan's golden era in field hockey coincided with the game being played on natural grass. The mandatory global transition to expensive, synthetic Astroturf pitches for international tournaments starting in the 1970s and 80s required massive investment in infrastructure and a change in technique (favoring speed and short passes). Pakistan's government and the Pakistan Hockey Federation (PHF) struggled with the financial burden of adopting and maintaining these surfaces, which is consistently cited as a major contributing factor to the national team's long-term decline, as players were not trained on modern facilities.

Why do regulatory authorities prohibit cross-subsidisation between merged dominant and subsidiary entities?
💡 Explanation:Regulatory bodies prohibit cross-subsidisation, particularly in cases involving a dominant market player, to prevent the entity from using profits from a less competitive/upstream market to fund unreasonably low (predatory) prices in a competitive/downstream market. This practice is a form of market abuse that forecloses competition, so prohibiting it ensures a level playing field and fair competition.
