NEET PYQs on Biomolecules: Class-XI


Cellulose does not form blue colour with lodine because

NEET-2023 [Biomolecules] [class-xi ]

  • It breakes down when iodine reacts with it.
  • It is a disaccharide.
  • It is a helical molecule.
  • It does not contain complex helices and hence cannot hold iodine molecules.
  • Correct Option: D  [ It does not contain complex helices and hence cannot hold iodine molecules. ]

    Remark:

Melonate inhibits the growth of pathogenic bacteria by inhibiting the activity of:

NEET-2023 [Biomolecules] [class-xi ]

  • Dinitrogenase
  • succinic dehydrogenase
  • Amylase
  • Lipase
  • Correct Option: B  [ succinic dehydrogenase ]

    Remark:

Given below are two statements:
Statement I: Low temperature preserves the enzyme in a temporarily inactive state whereas high temperature destroys enzymatic activity because proteins are denatured by heat. Statement II: When the inhibitor closely resembles the substrate in its molecular structure and inhibits the activity of the enzyme, it is known as competitive inhibitor.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

NEET-2023 [Biomolecules] [class-xi ]

  • Statement I is false but statement II is true.
  • Both Statement I and Statement II are true.
  • Both Statement I and Statement II are false.
  • Statement I is true but Statement II is false.
  • Correct Option: B  [ Both Statement I and Statement II are true. ]

    Remark:

Given below are two statements:
Statement I: A protein is imagined as a line, the left end represented by first amino acid (C-terminal) and the right end represented by last amino acid (N-terminal)
Statement II: Adult human haemoglobin, consists of 4 subunits (two subunits of α type and two subunits of β type.)
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

NEET-2023 [Biomolecules] [class-xi ]

  • Statement I is false but Statement II is true.
  • Both Statement I and Statement II are true.
  • Both Statement I and Statement II are false.
