Hints and Solutions
BIOLOGY
01) Ans: C) left auricle and left ventricle
Sol: Mitral valve or Bicuspid valve is present in the
atrioventricular opening between the left auricle
and left ventricle. During atrial systole, the mitral
valve opens to allow the flow of blood left auricle to
left ventricle and during beginning of ventricular
systole, mitral valve closes so as to prevent the
backward flow of blood.
02) Ans: D) The Statement 1 is false but the
Statement 2 is true
Sol: Organisms belonging to a given species rarely
exist naturally as a single large population. They
usually exist as small interbreeding populations
called demes each with its own gene pool. A species
exhibiting a gradual change in phenotypic
characteristics throughout its geographical range is
referred to as a cline. More than one cline may be
exhibited by a species and they may run in
opposite directions.
03) Ans: C) Excess by CO2 and H ions
Sol: Human have a significant ability to maintain
and moderate the respiratory rhythm to as per the
demands of the body tissues. A specialized centre
present in the medulla region of the brain known
as respiratory rhythm centre is primarily
responsible for this regulation. A chemosensitive
area is situated adjacent to the rhythm centre
which is highly sensitive to CO2 and hydrogen.
04) Ans: C) Carbonic anhydrase
Sol: Carbonic anhydrase enzyme is essential for
the transport of CO2 as bicarbonate in blood. The
large fraction of carbon dioxide (about 70%) is
converted to bicarbonate ions HCO3 and  
transported in plasma. When carbon dioxide
diffuses into the RBCs, it combines with water,
forming carbonic acid  H2CO3  . H2CO3 is
unstable and quickly dissociates into hydrogen
ions and bicarbonate ions.

This reaction is thousands times faster in
erythrocytes as they contain carbonic anhydrase,
an enzyme that reversibly catalyses the conversion
of carbon dioxide and water to carbonic acid.

05) Ans: C) residual volume and functional
residual capacity
Sol: The volume of air left in the lungs after forceful
expiration and after normal expiration is
respectively known as residual volume and
functional residual capacity. It is about 1100mL to
1200mL. Volume of air that will remain in the
lungs after a normal expiration is known as
functional residual capacity. This includes residual
volume and the expiratory reserve volume
(RV+ERV).
06) Ans: A) Turgor movement
07) Ans: B) 22 chromosomes
08) Ans: A) Thrombocyte
Sol: Platelet (thrombocyte) is a minute disc-shaped
cell fragment in mammalian blood and they are
formed as fragments of larger cells
(megakaryocytes) found in red bone marrow; they
have no nucleus. They play an important role in
blood clotting and release serotonin,
thromboplastin and other chemicals that cause a
chain of events leading to the formation of a plug at
the site of the damage, thus preventing further
blood loss. There are about 250, 000 platelets per
cubic millimeter of blood.
09) Ans: D) allergic reaction of the mast cells in
the lungs
Sol: Asthma may lead to allergic reaction of the
mast cells in the lungs. It is an allergic condition
in which the tissue surroundings the bronchioles
of the lungs swell up and compress the bronchioles
thus causing difficulty in breathing and this allergy
mainly involves IgE antibodies and chemicals like
histamine and serotonin from the mast cells.
10) Ans: C) It is circular DNA which has capacity
to bind eukaryote DNA
Sol: Plasmid is used in biotechnology or genetic
engineering for making the multiple copies of
desired genes (DNA segment). Because plasmid has
the capacity to bind with eukaryotic DNA.
11) Ans: B) i and iv
Sol: Population explosion is rapid increase in
population over a relatively short period of time.
Option 2 is correct as reasons for population
explosion are increased health facilities, decrease
in MMR (Maternal Mortality Rate), and IMR (Infant
Mortality Rate) and increase in number of people
reaching reproductive age.

and digest disease causing bacteria. Similarly,
monocytes when enter into tissues become
macrophages, these phagocyties and engulf
bacteria and other large-particles.
13) Ans: D) taxonomic keys
Sol: Taxonomic keys used for identification of
plants and animals based on the similarities and
dissimilarities. The key are based on contrasting
characters generally in a pair callled couplet. It
represents the choice made between two opposite
options, which results in acceptance of only one
and rejection of the other. Each statement in the
key is known as a lead.
by fusing a specific antibody-producing B cell with
a myeloma cell (cancer cell) that is selected for its
ability to grow in tissue culture and for an absence
of antibody chain synthesis. The antibodies
produced by the hybridoma are all of a single
specificity and are therefore called monoclonal
antibodies (in contrast to polyclonal antibodies).
20) Ans: B) Porogamy
Sol: Porogamy refer to the entry of the pollen tube
with two male gametes and tube nucleus through
micropyle. The pollen tube enters the ovule, either
through its micropyle (porogamy, e.g., Lily), chalaza
(chalazogamy,e.g., Casuarina, Juglaus) or the sides
after piercing through the integuments or funicle
(mesogamy, e.g., Cucurbita, Populus).

17) Ans: C) embryo upto 8 blastomeres, if zygote

is not transplanted
Sol: ZIFT (Zygote Intra Fallopian Transfer): The
zygote or early embryos (up to 8 blastomeres) could
then be transferred into the fallopian tube.
IUT (Intra Uterine Transfer): Embryos with more
than 8 blastomeres could be transferred into the
uterus, to complete its further development.

25) Ans: B) C-peptide is removed from proinsulin
Sol: Human insulin is made up of 51 amino acids
arranged in two polypeptide chains, A having 21
amino acids and B with 30 amino acids. The
hormone develops from a storage product termed
pro-insulin which has three chains, A,B and C.
C-chain with 33 amino acids is removed prior to
insulin formation. This C peptide is not present in
the mature insulin and is removed during
maturation into insulin.
26) Ans: C) Pollen cytoplasm
Sol: Pollen cytoplasm part of the pollen causes
pollen allergy. Pollen allergy is an allergy caused
when contacted with specific pollens and allergens
in the pollen are concentrated in the cytoplasm.
When allergens from an inhaled pollen grain are
released and bind with antibodies they produce a
number of symptoms like runny or stuffy nose,
sneezing, red, itchy and watery eyes and swelling
around the eyes.
27) Ans: B) 3-7 days
28) Ans: B) 2, 3, 5 triphenyl tetrazolium chloride
Sol: Viability of seeds can be tested by two
methods:
(i) ability to germinate,(ii) testing their ability to
respire.
All viable seeds respire. This can be tested by
immersing a section of seed containing the embryo
in 0.1% solution of triphenyl tetrazolium chloride.
The viable embryo will turn pink because of
conversion of colourless triphenyl tetrazolium
chloride into insoluble coloured dye known as
triphenyl formazone due to reduction.
29) Ans: D) Herbert Spencer
Sol: Herbert spencer used the term “survival of
fittest” to Darwin’s postulation, Natural selection.
30) Ans: A) estrogen and progesterone
Sol: Oral contraceptive pills consist of either
progesterone only or a combination of progesterone
and estrogen. The way of action of pills are:
(i) Inhibition of ovulation.
(ii) Inhibition of motility and secretory activity of
oviducts (Fallopian tubes).
(iii) Changes in cervical mucus impairing its ability
to allow passage and transport of sperms.
(iv)Alternation in uterine endometrium to make it
unsuitable for implantation
31) Ans: B) Proterozoic

Sol: In smaller organisms, the rate of metabolism is
higher in comparison to adult one. For example,
the average heart rate per minute in new born baby
is 130 while in 75 years and above aged persons it
is only 75.
34) Ans: D) carrier of pathogens
35) Ans: D) Statement 1 is true but statement 2
is false.
Sol: Mode of action of pills and
implants/injectables is similar but the effective
period of implants/ injectables is much longer as
compared to pills.
36) Ans: A) Both Statement 1 and Statement 2
are true but Statement 2 is not the correct
explanation of Statement 1
Sol: The maximum population size that can be
supported by the environment is called maximum
carrying capacity. Environment has three major
components:
i) Productive system
ii) Protective system
iii) Waste assimilative system.
The first two of these components the life
supportive capacity and third makes up the waste
assimilative capacity.
37) Ans: A) tricuspid valve
Sol: Tricuspid valve (right atrioventricular valve)
consisting of three flaps, situated between the right
atrium and the right ventricle of the mammalian
heart.
When the right ventricle contracts, forcing blood
into the pulmonary artery, the tricuspid valve
closes the aperture to the atrium, thereby
preventing any backflow of blood and the valve
reopens to allow blood to flow from the atrium into
the ventricle.
38) Ans: D) RNA interference
Sol: RNAi or RNA interference is a novel strategy
introduced by Fire and Mello, 1998 which prevents
the infection by nematode Meloidogyne incognitia
in the roots of tobacco plants and RNAi involves
silencing of specific mRNA. Using Agrobacterium
vectors, nematode specific genes are introduced
into the host plant (tobacco plant). The
introduction of DNA is such that it produces both
sense and anti-sense RNA in the host cells. These
two RNAs, being complementary to each other form
a dsRNA (double stranded RNA), that initiates RNAi
by first forming siRNA (small interfering RNAs). The
siRNA first unwinds and then binds to specific
complementary mRNA molecules of the nematode
and these sites are then cut by RISC (RNA-induced
silencing complex), thereby destroying mRNA of
host.
Therefore, no toxin proteins are synthesized.
