  • A-II, B-III, C-I, D-IV

     

  • A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I

     

  • A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV

     

(1)

 

 



Q 4 :    

The DNA present in chloroplast is                      [2024]

  • linear, double-stranded

     

  • circular, double-stranded

     

  • linear, single-stranded

     

  • circular, single-stranded

     

(2)

 



Q 5 :    

Which of the following statements are correct with respect to Golgi apparatus?                   [2023]

 

(A) It is the important site of formation of glycoprotein and glycolipids.
(B) It produces cellular energy in the form of ATP.
(C) It modifies the protein synthesized by ribosomes on ER.
(D) It facilitates the transport of ions.
(E) It provides mechanical support.

 

Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

  • (B) and (C) only

     

  • (A) and (C) only

     

  • (A) and (D) only

     

  • (D) and (E) only

     

(2)

Mitochondria are the sites of aerobic respiration. They produce cellular energy in the form of ATP, hence they are called the "powerhouse" of the cell. The cytoskeleton in a cell provides mechanical support.

 



Q 6 :    

Which of the following functions is carried out by the cytoskeleton in a cell?                  [2023]

  • Motility

     

  • Transportation

     

  • Nuclear division

     

  • Protein synthesis

     

(1)

The cytoskeleton is an elaborate network of filamentous proteinaceous structures consisting of microtubules, microfilaments and intermediate filaments present in the cytoplasm. It is involved in many functions such as motility, mechanical support and maintenance of the shape of the cell.

 



Q 7 :    

Which of the following are not considered as part of the endomembrane system?                         [2023]


A. Mitochondria
B. Endoplasmic Reticulum
C. Chloroplasts
D. Golgi complex
E. Peroxisomes

 

Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

  • A and D only

     

  • A, D and E only

     

  • B and D only

     

  • A, C and E only

     

(4)

The endomembrane system includes the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) (B), Golgi complex (D), lysosomes and vacuoles because the functions of these organelles are coordinated. However, the functions of mitochondria (A), chloroplasts (C), and peroxisomes (E) are not coordinated with the above components, so these are not considered as part of the endomembrane system.

 



Q 8 :    

How many different proteins does the ribosome consist of?                 [2023]

  • 40

     

  • 20

     

  • 80

     

  • 60

     

(3)

 



Q 9 :    

Match List-I with List-II.                                 [2022]

List-I List-II
a) Metacentric chromosome (i) Centromere situated close to the end forming one extremely short and one very long arm
b) Acrocentric chromosome (ii) Centromere at the terminal end
c) Sub-metacentric (iii) Centromere in the middle forming two equal arms of chromosomes
d) Telocentric chromosome (iv) Centromere slightly away from the middle forming one shorter arm and one longer arm

 

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  • (A)-(iii), (B)-(i), (C)-(iv), (D)-(ii)

     

  • (A)-(i), (B)-(iii), (C)-(ii), (D)-(iv)

     

  • (A)-(ii), (B)-(iii), (C)-(iv), (D)-(i)

     

  • (A)-(i), (B)-(ii), (C)-(iii), (D)-(iv)

     

(1)

 



Q 10 :    

Which of the following statements with respect to endoplasmic reticulum is incorrect?                    [2022]

  • RER has ribosomes attached to ER

     

  • SER is devoid of ribosomes

     

  • In prokaryotes only RER are present

     

  • SER are the sites for lipid synthesis

     

(3)

The rough endoplasmic reticulum, peroxisomes and mitochondria are bound by their own membranes and are only found in eukaryotic cells. So, SER and RER are not found in prokaryotic cells as they are exclusive to eukaryotic cells.
