Find the incorrect statement.

A
Gene therapy is a genetic engineering technique used to treat disease at molecular level by replacing defective genes with normal genes.

B
Calcitonin is a medically useful recombinant product in the treatment of infertility.

C
Bt toxin is biodegradable insectiside obtained from Bacillus thuringiensis.

D
Trichoderma sp. is a biocontrol agent for fungal diseases of plants.

E
Totipotency is the potential ability of a cell to develop into a complete plant.

Solution

Calcitonin is a naturally occurring hormone, secreted by parafollicular cells of the thyroid, that regulates calcium levels in body and regulates bone building.
Gene therapy is the process of introduction of DNA into living human beings in order to treat disease. It is used to replace a missing gene product or to correct mutant alleles.
Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is a Gram-positive bacterium that produces protoxins crystals during sporulation which are potent and highly specific insecticides. These crystals are activated, by alkaline conditions of the gut of their host, into biodegradable Bt toxin and cause cell death of host through osmotic lysis.
Trichoderma harzianum is a biofungicide and is used for suppression of various disease causing fungal pathogens.
Totipotency is the ability of plant cells to regenerate into embryo under favourable conditions.
So, the correct answer is 'Calcitonin is a medically useful recombinant product in the treatment of infertility'.

After hearing Mr. Saxena's countless and justified explanations on his problem, the doctor said, "Okay! In that case, your request for permanent contraception is granted. I shall sterilize you on the 18th December2013. You will have all your male characteristics intact, so don't worry."

In vitro fertilization

His vas deferens will be cut and tied

C
His seminal vesicle will be removed

D
His prostate gland will be removed and testes will be cut and tied

Solution

Permanent contraception is methods of sterilization that prevent pregnancy permanently. The procedure for men is a vasectomy and for women it is tubal ligation. In vasectomy, a slight incision is made at the base of the scrotum in order to expose vas deferens. The vas deferens, which carries the sperms to the urethra, is tied by a thread, the sperms cannot go past the tied point. This means that sperm can’t get far along the tubes to mix with the semen. Men who have had vasectomies still ejaculate and produce semen but since there is no sperm in it, the woman’s egg can’t be fertilized.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
