DPP No. : 42 (JEE-ADVANCED)
MCQ (One or more than one correct) :
1. Which of the following monosaccharides are present as five membered cyclic structure (furanose struc-
ture)?
(A) Ribose (B) Glucose (C) Fructose (D) Galactose
Ans. (AC)

2. Which of the following carbohydrates are branched polymer of glucose?

(A) Amylose (B) Amylopectin (C) Cellulose (D) Glycogen
Ans. (BD)

3. The correct statement(s) about biopolymer X is(are) :

(A) It is a non-reducing sugar (B) It exhibits mutarotation.

(C) It has (C1 – C4) glycosidic linkage. (D) Its hydrolysis product is D-Galactose.
Ans. (AC)
Sol. It is non-reducing sugar because it lacks hemiactal linkage. Its hydrolysis product is -D-Glucose.
4. Which of the following statement is/are correct about isoelectric point ?
(A) It depends on the basicity and acidity of –NH2 and –COOH groups.
(B) It is influenced by the presence of other functional groups.
(C) It varies with the nature of R group.
(D) It depends on the molecular weight of the amino acid.
Ans. (ABC)

5. Correct statement about peptide linkage in a protein molecule is/are correct ?

(A) It is amide linkage (B) It has partial double bond character.
(C) It is hydrophilic in nature (D) It connects protein molecules through H-bonds.
Ans. (ABCD)
