Which of the following structures is not present in the heart by birth, to allow one way flow of blood?

  1. Mitral valve

  2. Bileaflet valve

  3. Tricuspid valve

  4. Aortic valve

  5. Pulmonary valve


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Yes, it is the correct answer. It is not a natural valve present in the heart but an artificial mechanical valve used by a doctor for a cardio patient.

Which of the following are not released/produced by the gastric glands present in the stomach?

  1. Pepsin enzyme

  2. Mucus

  3. Gastric acid

  4. Amylase enzyme

  5. Renin enzyme


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

No, gastric glands do not release amylase. It is produced by salivary glands. Hence, this is the correct answer.

Which of the following factors is not responsible for ascent of sap in plants?

  1. Pull of gravity

  2. Capillary action

  3. Root pressure

  4. Adhesion-cohesion of water molecules

  5. Transpiration pull


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Yes, this is the correct answer. Gravity pull will force the water downwards. The upward movement of water and minerals from roots to different plant parts is called ascent of sap.

In which of the following human organs is Bowman's capsule present?

  1. Heart

  2. Kidney

  3. Liver

  4. Stomach

  5. Lungs


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Yes, Bowman's capsule is a cup-like sac at the beginning of the tubular component of a nephron in the mammalian kidney. The filtered blood is sent to the systemic circulation through efferent arteriole and the filtrate goes to the Bowman’s capsule.

The eyespots that are light sensitive, were first found in __________.

  1. bacteria

  2. planaria

  3. apes

  4. human

  5. none of these


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Yes, it is correct. Planaria is the first animal which shows ‘eye’ like structure that are spots and light sensitive.

Which of the following organs present in a human body has/have lumen?

(a) Small intestines (b) Ribs (c) Aorta (d) Esophagus (e) Mouth

  1. Only A

  2. Only C

  3. Both 2 and 5

  4. A, C and D

  5. C and E


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Yes, all of them have lumen. The opening in a tubular body structure that is surrounded by body tissue is known as lumen. It is present in the small intestine, aorta and esophagus.

What is the ratio of chromosomes in somatic cell to gamete cell?

  1. 2 : 1

  2. 3 : 1

  3. 1 : 3

  4. 1 : 2

  5. None of these


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Yes, it is correct. Number of chromosomes is halved during gamete formation. As a result, the number of chromosomes in gamete is half the number of chromosomes in somatic cells.

Which of the following cells are created by meiosis?

  1. Brain cells

  2. Sex cells

  3. Heart cells

  4. Growth cells

  5. All of these


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Yes, it is the correct answer. Meiosis creates sex cells, i.e. gametes with half the number of chromosomes.

As a result of mitotic reproduction, the number of chromosomes in the two daughter cells formed ___________.

  1. are decreased

  2. are increased

  3. remain the same

  4. remains same in one and decreases in other

  5. remains same in one and increases in other


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Yes, the number of chromosomes remain the same. It is a process of asexual reproduction in which the cell divides in two producing a replica, with an equal number of chromosomes in each resulting diploid cell.

Which of the following ratio is correct regarding number of chromosomes in diploid cell : haploid cell : diploid human cell?

  1. 46 : 46 : 46

  2. 23 : 46 : 23

  3. 46 : 23 : 23

  4. 46 : 23 : 46

  5. 23 : 23 : 46


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Yes, it is correct. No, it is incorrect. Diploid cell is produced after mitotic reproduction having 46, i.e. the original number of chromosomes. Haploid cells are produced after meiosis reproduction having half the number of chromosomes, i.e. 23. Diploid human cells are formed after fusion of two daughter haploid cells, hence 23 + 23 = 46 again.

Match the following brain part and its function.

 
1. Cerebellum a. Controls sleep and wake cycle
2. Medulla b. Balance of body
3. Hypothalamus c. Seat of learning and memory
4. Cerebrum d. Control involuntary actions
  1. 1 - b, 2 - d, 3 - a, 4 - c

  2. 1 - d, 2 - b, 3 - a, 4 - c

  3. 1 - c, 2 - d, 3 - a, 4 - b

  4. 1 - d, 2 - b, 3 - c, 4 - a

  5. 1 - a, 2 - d, 3 - b, 4 - c


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Yes, all are correctly matched. Cerebellum controls the balance of body. Medulla controls various involuntary functions. Hypothalamus controls sleep and wake cycle (circadian rhythm) of the body, cerebrum is the seat of learning and memory.

Male : Female; Cowper's gland : _________.

  1. Bartholin's gland

  2. Mammary glands

  3. Skene's gland

  4. Lymph glands

  5. None of these


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Yes, it is correct. The secretion of this gland lubricates the urethra before ejaculation and neutralizes the acidic traces of urine in the urethra by Cowper's in males and Bartholin's in females.

If fertilization does not occur, certain changes are seen in the uterine wall resulting into __________.

  1. ovarian infection

  2. menstrual flow

  3. vaginal flow

  4. UTI infection

  5. none of these


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Yes, it is correct. The fragments of the lining are shed along with blood and the discarded egg; through the vagina. The discharge of discarded tissues is called menstrual flow and the process is called menstruation.

Match the following methods of reproduction shown in the respective organisms.

 
1. Spirogyra a. Budding
2. Plasmodium b. Multiple fission
3. Yeast c. Binary fission
4. Paramecium d. Breaking up of filaments into smaller bits
  1. 1 - d, 2 - c, 3 - b, 4 - a

  2. 1 - a, 2 - b, 3 - d, 4 - c

  3. 1 - d, 2 - b, 3 - a, 4 - c

  4. 1 - d, 2 - c, 3 - a, 4 - b

  5. None of these


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Yes, it is correct. Spirogyra can reproduce both sexually and asexually. Spirogyra reproduces asexually by filaments breaking into smaller bits. Plasmodium reproduces by multiple fission. Yeast shows budding and paramecium reproduces by binary fission, when it reproduces asexually.

Riya tried to grow yeast in three different solutions. (1) Plain water, (2) Sugar solution and (3) Sugar solution maintained at high temperature. Which is the correct order of solution supporting highest to minimum growth of yeast?

  1. 2 > 3 > 1

  2. 1 > 2 > 3

  3. 2 > 1 > 3

  4. 3 > 1 > 2

  5. 1 > 3 > 2


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Yes, it is correct. Yeast grows very slow in plain water as there are very less nutrients present than in the sugar solution, which has sufficient amount of nutrients for yeast to grow. High temperature does not support yeast growth.
