  • Question 1/15
    1 / -0

    Reproduction is essential for living organisms in order to

    Solutions

    Each and every organism living on this earth can live only once as no one is immortal. There must be some process to maintain continuity.
    Reproduction refers to the biological process of giving birth to their young ones similar to themselves. Reproduction is essential for living organisms in order to continue the species generation after generation. It maintains the variation present in a population and its inheritance.

  • Question 2/15
    1 / -0

    A chain of yeast cells forms because

    Solutions

    The chain of yeast cells forms due to not separating of yeast cells after budding. When the yeast cells are not separated after budding, they form chain.

  • Question 3/15
    1 / -0

    Define fertilization

    Solutions

    The process of combining the male gamete, or sperm, with the female gamete, or ovum. The product of fertilization is a cell called a zygote.

  • Question 4/15
    1 / -0

     __ type of reproduction takes place in Hydra.

    Solutions

    In Hydra, a bud begins to form on the tubular body of the parent. The bud then develops a mouth and tentacles and detaches from its parent. The new Hydra is fully developed and will find a substrate for its attachment. Thus the correct answer in option A.

  • Question 5/15
    1 / -0

    Assertion: The endometrium undergoes cyclical changes during menstrual cycle.

    Reason: The myometrium exhibits strong contractions during delivery of the baby.

    Solutions

    The wall of the uterus has three layers of tissue. The external thin membranous perimetrium, middle thick layer of smooth muscle, myometrium and inner glandular layer called endometrium that lines the uterine cavity. The endometrium undergoes cyclical changes during menstrual cycle while the myometrium exhibits strong contractions during the delivery of the baby.

  • Question 6/15
    1 / -0

    Assertion: All members of bee society are diploid except the drones.

    Reason: Drones are produced parthenogenetically.

    Solutions

    Parthenogenesis is a modification of sexual reproduction in which an egg develops into a complete organism without fertilization.
    In honey bee, unfertilized eggs development to the mail b which are the drones with the haploid cell, and the fertilized egg give rise to the female Queen bees and worker bees with the diploid cell.
    The Queen bee is the largest in size and lays a large number of eggs.
    So, the correct option is 'Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion'

  • Question 7/15
    1 / -0

    A student after observing a slide showing different stages of binary fission in Amoeba draws the following diagrams.



    However, These diagrams are not in proper sequence:
    The correct sequence is:

  • Question 8/15
    1 / -0

    Onion is propagated through it's

    Solutions

    The asexual reproduction where the vegetative part of the plant which gives rise to a new plant is known as vegetative reproduction. Onion undergoes vegetative propagation by underground bulbs. It is an underground modified stem. It has a terminal bud which is enclosed by fleshy scales. Axillary buds occur at different places. The fleshy scales help in the storage of food. It has an adventitious root at the end. During vegetative propagation, the axillary and terminal buds grow into a new stem.

  • Question 9/15
    1 / -0

    During the fourth and sixth cleavage of the zygote

  • Question 10/15
    1 / -0

    A potato tuber is sown in a pot and pot is placed in the freezer of refrigerator. New plants will:

    Solutions

    Buds do not germinate at very low temperature.

  • Question 11/15
    1 / -0

    Which of the following does not take place during the final stage of the menstrual cycle?
    I Further thickening of the uterine lining
    II Repair and growth of the uterine lining
    III Ovulation

    Solutions

    The four phases of the menstrual cycle are menstruation, the follicular phase, ovulation and the luteal phase. Common menstrual problems include heavy or painful periods and premenstrual syndrome (PMS). Knowing when in the menstrual cycle a woman is most likely to conceive can increase the chance of pregnancy.

  • Question 12/15
    1 / -0

    Which one of the following is correct?

    Solutions

    • Reproduction is the process of producing new individuals of the same species from the pre-existing organism. The procreation of new offspring is obtained via sexual or asexual method. The particular species will disappear in time in the absence of reproduction. Thus, Reproduction is the only means to assure the survival of a species.
    • During the process of reproduction, DNA passes from one generation to the next. It contains the replication process of DNA, the carrier of genetic information, and its transmission from parent to new individual. The replication of DNA takes place with consistency but with minor variations. This consistency leads to stability of species.
    • The method of reproduction is responsible for providing stability to the population of species by giving birth to new individuals. The amount of birth rate must be at par with the rate of death to maintain the stability in the population of a species. By reproduction, organisms produce a large number of new individuals out of which several get perished and only some survive which ensures the continuity of species. These surviving organisms maintain a balance between the death ratios of naturally dying organisms. Therefore, it helps to replace the older population with the new population. Thus the population as a whole is not affected by reproduction and remains stable.
    • Hence, Reproduction plays a major role in the inheritance of genetic characters which passed on from one generation to another and thereby it is inevitable to maintain the stability of species.

  • Question 13/15
    1 / -0

    Amoeba is most commonly reproduced by:

    Solutions

    Amoeba is most commonly reproduced by the process of Binary fission.

  • Question 14/15
    1 / -0

    Which of the following is correct?

    Solutions

    The gamete formation in females is a cyclic activity that takes about 28/29 days and involves changes in the structure and function of the entire reproductive system. It is called a menstrual cycle.

  • Question 15/15
    1 / -0

    Pollination is a characteristic of

    Solutions

    Pollination is the characteristics of flowering plants i.e., angiosperms. After the pollen tube reaches the ovary, the process of double fertilization occurs in the angiosperms. One of the male gametes fuses with the egg cell (syngamy) which results in the formation of zygote. The second male gamete fuses with two polar nuclei to form a triploid, primary endosperm nucleus (PEN). This is called triple fusion. Since two fusion syngamy and triple fusion take place in an embryo sac, it is called double fertilisation. Central cell and PEN develop into the endosperm and zygote develops into the embryo.
