Y chromosome in humans:
- A.
Is completely inert
- B.
Carries few genes
- C.
Carries many genes
- D.
Contains genes for haemophilia and colour blindness
Correct Answer
A. Is completely inertExplanation
The Y chromosome in humans is completely inert. This means that it does not carry any functional genes and does not play a significant role in determining physical traits or characteristics. Unlike the X chromosome, which carries numerous genes, the Y chromosome is mostly devoid of genetic information. It is primarily responsible for determining male sex characteristics and is passed down from fathers to their sons.Rate this question:

Wood is not formed in:
- A.
Monocots
- B.
Dicots
- C.
Gymnosperms
- D.
All of Given
Correct Answer
A. MonocotsExplanation
Wood is not formed in monocots. Monocots are a type of flowering plant that have a single cotyledon (seed leaf) in their embryos. Unlike dicots and gymnosperms, monocots do not produce true wood. Wood is primarily composed of xylem tissue, which is responsible for providing support and conducting water and nutrients throughout the plant. In dicots and gymnosperms, the xylem tissue undergoes secondary growth, resulting in the formation of wood. However, monocots lack this secondary growth, and therefore do not produce wood.Rate this question:

- B.
Capsule
- C.
Mucilaginous sheath
- D.
None of Given
Correct Answer
C. Mucilaginous sheathExplanation
The trichome of Nostoc is surrounded by a mucilaginous sheath. Trichomes are long, filamentous structures that are found in certain types of bacteria, including Nostoc. The mucilaginous sheath provides protection and support to the trichome, helping it to maintain its structure and function. It also helps in the attachment of the trichome to surfaces and in the formation of colonies. The pellicle is a thin, skin-like layer that forms on the surface of liquids and is not relevant to the structure of the trichome of Nostoc. Similarly, the capsule is a protective structure found in some bacteria, but it is not associated with the trichome of Nostoc. Therefore, the correct answer is mucilaginous sheath.Rate this question:

The ultimate source of all changes is:
- A.
Mutation
- B.
Migration
- C.
Genetic drift
- D.
Change in allelic frequency
Correct Answer
A. MutationExplanation
Mutation is the ultimate source of all changes because it is the process by which new genetic variations are introduced into a population. Mutations can occur spontaneously or as a result of environmental factors, and they can lead to changes in the DNA sequence of an organism. These changes can then be passed on to future generations, resulting in genetic diversity and the potential for evolution to occur. Therefore, mutation is the primary driver of genetic change and is responsible for the creation of new alleles and the variation seen within and between populations.Rate this question:

Plant protects itself from rapid chilling through:
- A.
Increasing unsaturated fatty acids
- B.
Increasing protein contents
- C.
Both Increasing protein contents and unsaturated fatty acids
- D.
None of Given
Correct Answer
A. Increasing unsaturated fatty acidsExplanation
Plants protect themselves from rapid chilling by increasing the amount of unsaturated fatty acids in their cells. Unsaturated fatty acids have a lower melting point compared to saturated fatty acids, allowing the cell membranes to remain fluid at lower temperatures. This helps prevent damage to the cell membranes and maintains their functionality during cold weather. Increasing protein contents alone may not provide sufficient protection against chilling, and therefore, the combination of increasing unsaturated fatty acids and protein contents is not necessary.Rate this question:
