Which of the following is characteristic feature of cockroach regarding sexual dimorphism?
Anal styles are present only in male cockroaches.
The unique mammalian characteristics are:
Hair, pinna (external ear), and mammary glands are unique to mammals.
Select the correct statements.
A. Tetrad formation is seen during Leptotene. B. During Anaphase, the centromeres split and chromatids separate. C. Terminalization takes place during Pachytene. D. Nucleolus, Golgi complex and ER are reformed during Telophase. E. Crossing over takes place between sister chromatids of homologous chromosome.
Tetrad forms in Pachytene (not Leptotene); terminalization in Diakinesis; CO between NON-sister chromatids. B (Anaphase II) and D correct.
Which of the following statements are correct?
A. Basophils are most abundant cells of the total WBCs. B. Basophils secrete histamine, serotonin and heparin. C. Basophils are involved in inflammatory response. D. Basophils have kidney shaped nucleus. E. Basophils are agranulocytes.
Basophils are LEAST abundant, granular, with lobed nucleus. Only B and C correct.
The parts of human brain that helps in regulation of sexual behaviour, expression of excitement, pleasure, rage, fear etc. are:
Limbic system + hypothalamus regulate emotion, motivation and sexual behaviour.
Which of the following statements are correct?
A. An excessive loss of body fluid from the body switches off osmoreceptors. B. ADH facilitates water reabsorption to prevent diuresis. C. ANF causes vasodilation. D. ADH causes increase in blood pressure. E. ADH is responsible for decrease in GFR.
A wrong (fluid loss ACTIVATES osmoreceptors). E wrong (ADH doesn't lower GFR). B, C, D correct.
Which of the following statements are correct regarding skeletal muscle?
A. Muscle bundles are held together by collagenous connective tissue layer called fascicle. B. Sarcoplasmic reticulum of muscle fibre is a store house of calcium ions. C. Striated appearance of skeletal muscle fibre is due to distribution pattern of actin and myosin proteins. D. M line is considered as functional unit of contraction called sarcomere.
D wrong — sarcomere is between two Z-lines, not the M-line.
Which one of the following is NOT an advantage of inbreeding?
Inbreeding INCREASES (not decreases) homozygosity — so statement (A) is factually wrong, hence not an advantage.
Match List I with List II:
| List I | List II |
|---|---|
| A. Mast cells | I. Ciliated epithelium |
| B. Inner surface of bronchiole | II. Areolar connective tissue |
| C. Blood | III. Cuboidal epithelium |
| D. Tubular parts of nephron | IV. specialised connective tissue |
Mast cells → areolar CT; bronchiole → ciliated epi; blood → specialised CT; nephron tubule → cuboidal epi.
Statement I: During G₀ phase of cell cycle, the cell is metabolically inactive. Statement II: The centrosome undergoes duplication during S phase of interphase.
G₀ cells are metabolically ACTIVE but not dividing. Centrosome doubles in S phase.
