Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants
How many theca are present in each lobe of a typical bilobed angiosperm anther?
A 2
B 6
C 8
D 12
Show explanation

Try again
A typical angiosperm anther is bilobed, and each lobe contains two theca (dithecous anther).
Locomotion And Movement
Muscle contraction is initiated by a signal sent by the central nervous system by the release of _______.
A Acetyl choline
B Acetyl coenzyme A
C Cyclic guanine monophosphate
D Cyclic adenine monophosphate
Show explanation
Bookmark
Try again
Acetylcholine is released at the neuromuscular junction and initiates muscle contraction.
Biotechnology Principles And Processes
Which of the following statements about lac-operon is correct?
A Gene i is constitutively expressed
B Lactose activates repressor to bind to the operator
C Genes i, z, y and a share single common promoter
D Galactose can act as an inducer of lac operon
Show explanation
Bookmark
Try again
The regulatory gene (i) is constitutively expressed. Allolactose, not galactose, acts as the inducer by inactivating the repressor.
Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants
Which of the following in the female gametophyte of an angiosperm helps in guiding the pollen tube for fertilizing the egg?
A Antipodals
B Synergids
C Central cell
D Polar nucleus
Show explanation
Bookmark
Try again
Synergids possess a filiform apparatus that guides the pollen tube towards the egg apparatus.
Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants
Which of the following plants produces non-albuminous seeds?
A Wheat
B Maize
C Barley
D Pea
Show explanation
Bookmark
Try again
Pea produces non-albuminous (exalbuminous) seeds because the endosperm is consumed during embryo development.
Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants
If the diploid chromosome number of a typical angiosperm is 36, what would be the chromosome number in its endosperm?
A 18
B 36
C 54
D 72
Show explanation
Bookmark
Try again
The endosperm is triploid (3n). If the diploid chromosome number is 36 (2n), then n = 18 and the endosperm chromosome number is 3n = 54.
Excretory Products And Their Elimination
Which of the following statements about the reabsorption process in Henle's loop are correct? (a) The descending limb of Henle's loop is permeable to water but almost impermeable to electrolytes. (b) Urine gets concentrated in Henle's loop. (c) Reabsorption of Na+ and water takes place in Henle's loop. (d) Active or passive transport of electrolytes occurs in the ascending limb of Henle's loop. Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
A (a) and (b) only
B (b), (c) and (d) only
C (a), (b) and (c) only
D (a), (b) and (d) only
Show explanation
Bookmark
Try again
The descending limb reabsorbs water, whereas the ascending limb reabsorbs electrolytes and is impermeable to water. The filtrate becomes concentrated in the descending limb.
Locomotion And Movement
Which of the following is the correct order of arrangement of vertebral column from head to toe?
A Cervical vertebra, thoracic vertebra, sacrum, lumbar vertebra
B Sacrum, lumbar vertebra, thoracic vertebra, cervical vertebra
C Cervical vertebra, lumbar vertebra, thoracic vertebra, sacrum
D Cervical vertebra, thoracic vertebra, lumbar vertebra, sacrum
Show explanation
Bookmark
Try again
The vertebral column is arranged from top to bottom as cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral and coccygeal vertebrae.
Evolution
Which of the following is not evidence for evolution?
A Convergent evolution of traits like wings of birds and butterflies
B Paleontological evidence from fossil records
C Embryological support for evolution as proposed by Ernst Heckel
D Divergent evolution of anatomical structures such as forelimbs
Show explanation
Bookmark
Try again
Haeckel's biogenetic law has been discredited and is no longer accepted as valid evidence for evolution.
Evolution
