Which of the following sulfate-reducing bacteria uses CO2 from reverse TCA cycle as a major C-Source?
Which of the following microorganisms has/have least G + C moles%?
Which of the following enzymes are examples of hydorlases?
- Lactate dehydrogenase
- Alanine deaminase
- Lipase
- Sucrase
- DNA ligase
Assertion (A): During aerobic respiration, lesser number of ATPs is produced in eukaryotes than in prokaryotes. Reason (R): In eukaryotes, some energy is lost when electrons are shuttled across the mitochondrial membranes that separate glycolysis (in cytoplasm) from the electron transport chain.
Directions: In the following question, there are two statements, Assertion (A) and Reason (R). Consider both the statements independently and mark your answers as under:
1. A and R both are correct and R is the correct explanation of A.
2. A and R both are correct and R is not the correct explanation of A.
3. A is correct and R is incorrect.
4. A is incorrect and R is correct.
5. A and R both are incorrect.
Match the column – I (Microorganism) with column – II (Industrial product) and select the correct option.
Column – I | Column – II |
P. Gluconobacter | 1. Cheese |
Q. Aspergillus | 2. Citric Acid |
R. Streptococcus | 3. Vitamin C |
S. Saccharomyces | 4. Glycerol |
