  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Which of the following statements are correct?
    a. Cytokinins suppress the synthesis of chlorophyll.
    b. Auxins control apical dominance.
    c. Gibberellins promote shoot elongation.
    d. Abscisic acid enables the seeds to withstand desiccation.
    Solution
    • Auxins are plant hormones that promote apical dominance. It also promotes root and shoots elongation.
    • Cytokinins are involved primarily in cell growth and differentiation also affects axillary bud growth and leaf senescence. 
    • Gibberellins promote shoot elongation. It also causes bolting, which is the increase of shoot length. 
    • Abscisic acid is a phytohormone that enables seeds to withstand desiccation. Abscisic acid also promotes dormancy. 
    Thus, the correct answer is option D.
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Choose the correct alternate, which the type of tropism exhibited by plants is correctly matched with the stimulus to which they respond.

    Tropism
    Stimulus
    1Hydrotropism(i)Earth
    2Geotropism(ii)Light
    3Chemotropism(iii)Water
    4Phototropism(iv)Chemical
    Solution
    Hydrotropism is a plant's growth response in which the direction of growth is determined by a stimulus or gradient in water concentration. 
    Gravitropism (also known as geotropism) is a turning or growth movement by a plant, fungus, or animal in response to gravity. 
    Chemotropism is the growth in response to chemical stimulus from outside of the organism or organisms part. example - growth of pollen tube inside the style
    Phototropism is the growth of organisms in response to light. It is most often observed in plants, but can also occur in other organisms such as fungi.
    So, the correct answer is option B.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Match the following:
    Column I
    Column II
    A. Hypothalamus
    p. Reflex action
    B. Cerebellum
    q. Balance
    C. Medulla oblongata
    r. Intelligence
    D. Cerebrum
    s. Water balance
    Solution

    The hypothalamus regulates various activities in the body connected with metabolism, including the maintaining of water balance. 

    The cerebellum coordinates voluntary movements such as posture, balance, coordination, and speech, resulting in smooth, balanced muscular activity. 

    Autonomic functions of the medulla oblongata include control of respiration, cardiac control center, and certain reflex actions such as coughing, sneezing, swallowing and vomiting. 

    The cerebrum is the site of intellectual activities. It holds the memories, allows to plan, enables to imagine and think. 

    Hence, the correct answer is option A.

  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Match and choose the correct option.
      List I  List II
     1 Human urine a Cytokinin
     2 Gibberella fujikuroi b Auxin
     3 Herring fish DNA c Ethylene
     4Ripening fruits
     d Abscisic acid
     5Closing of stomata e Gibberellins
    Solution
    Indole-3-acetic acid is an integral part of human urine and serum and urine is responsible for the auxin effect. Giberella fujikori is the fungus from which gibberellin hormone was first isolated. It was found as a result of the studies related to bakane disease, which is also known as foolish seedling disease. Herring sperm DNA has cell division promoting activity. It is thus related to the kinetin enzyme, which is responsible for the multiplication of cells. Spraying of ethylene causes the ripening of fruits. It is a phytohormone which is present in gaseous form. Abscisic acid is related to stomatal closure in water stress conditions. It also induces dormancy in plants during seed germination.
    So, the correct answer is '1- b, 2- e, 3- a, 4- c, 5- d'
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    The correct match is

    Solution
    The fissure of sylvius is the large deep groove or indentation, that separates the parietal and temporal lobes. The central sulcus is a fold in the cerebral cortex in the brains of vertebrates. Also called the central fissure, it was originally, called the fissure of Rolando, that separates the parietal and frontal lobes. The stem-like part of the base of the brain that is connected to the spinal cord. The brain stem controls the flow of messages between the brain and the rest of the body. A band of nerve fibers on the ventral surface of the brainstem, that links the medulla oblongata and the cerebellum is pons varolli. The cerebellum is located at the base of the brain, just above the brain stem, where the spinal cord meets the brain and is made of two hemispheres.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    The part of the brain which is involved in interpreting an input, storing input information and initiating a response in the light of similar past experience is:
    Solution
    • Association areas receive the sensory information and integrate it and generate a response. These regions are associated with reasoning, memory and emotions. 
    • Motor areas of the cortex serve as the site for the origin of voluntary commands for skeletal muscles. 
    • Sensory areas receive sensory information from various body parts. 
    • Pons serves as a connector between the spinal cord and brain and between different parts of the brain. 
    • Cerebellum serves to coordinate the voluntary movements of skeletal muscles as well as posture, balance and equilibrium.
    So, the correct answer is option C.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    A condition of extreme mental and usually motor excitement, hallucinations and marked rapid confusion are the symptoms of
    Solution
    Wernicke's disease is caused by lack of vitamin B$$_{1}$$ and causes loss of memory, confabulation, hallucinations.
    Delirium tremens occurs when one stops drinking alcohol after a period of heavy drinking. It causes body tremors, changes in mental function, agitation, irritability, confusion, disorientation, delirium, hallucinations, increased activity, quick mood changes, restlessness, excitement.
    Jolliffe's encephalopathy is caused due to complete deficiency of nicotine and its amide, which causes loss of memory.
    Kosakoff's syndrome is a neurological disorder caused by lack of vitamin B$$_{1}$$ thereby causing amnesia, lack of insight, contabulations.
    So, the correct answer is option B.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Nissl granules are mostly present in 
    Solution
    A Nissl body is a large granular body found in neurons. These granules are rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) with rosettes of free ribosomes and are the site of protein synthesis. These are present in cyton of the nerve cell.
    So, the correct answer is option B.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Correct the following statements by replacing the terms underlined (wherever necessary) and select the correct option.
    (i) The part of human brain which regulates heart beat is called cerebrum.
    (ii) Chemotropism is directional movement.
    (iii) The centre for sexual behaviour is situated in medulla oblongata.
    (iv) The plant hormone named after the fungus causing bakane disease is IAA.
    (v) Centre for hunger and thirst is located in diencephalon.
    Solution
    Medulla oblongata: This section of the brain helps transfer messages to the spinal cord and the thalamus in the brain from the body and controls breathing, heart function, blood vessel function, digestion, sneezing, and swallowing. Sensory and motor neurons from the forebrain and midbrain travel through the medulla.The hypothalamus is a section of the brain responsible for hormone production. The hormones produced by this area of the brain govern body temperature, thirst, hunger, sleep, circadian rhythm, moods, sex drive, and the release of other hormones in the body.
    The cerebrum or cortex is the largest part of the human brain, associated with higher brain function such as thought and action. The cerebral cortex is divided into four sections, called "lobes": the frontal lobe, parietal lobe, occipital lobe, and temporal lobe.
    The diencephalon is the region of the embryonic vertebrate neural tube that gives rise to posterior forebrain structures including the thalamus, hypothalamus, posterior portion of the pituitary gland, and pineal gland.
    Chemo-tropism is the growth of organisms (or parts of an organism, including individual cells) such as bacteria and plants, navigated by chemical stimulus from outside of the organism or organisms part. The response of the organism or organism part is termed positive if the growth is towards the stimulus or negative if the growth is away from the stimulus.
    An example of chemo-tropic movement can be seen during the growth of the pollen tube, where growth is always towards the ovules. It can be also written that conversion of flower into fruit is the example of chemo-tropism.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Storage sprouting of potato can be prevented by
    Solution
    Maleic hydrazide is an inhibitor which is commonly used to inhibit the growth of buds. The inhibitor is used to prevent the germination of the adventitious buds and roots in the potatoes and the onions. This molecule is used to prevent sprouting of the buds during the storage of the food. 
    Thus, the correct answer is option A.
