  • A. Molecules of dissolved substance move from left to right
  • B. Molecules of dissolved substance move from right to left
  • C. Overall, water molecules move from left to right.
  • D. Overall, water molecules move from right to left

Explanation: Water molecules move from the left to right as water potential is higher on the left side than the right side.

Correct answer: Overall, water molecules move from left to right.
  • A. Right Atrium
  • B. Left Atrium
  • C. Right Ventricle
  • D. Left Ventricle

Explanation: The right atrium is the part of the heart that receives deoxygenated blood from the whole body via the superior and inferior vena cava.

Correct answer: Right Atrium
  • A. A
  • B. B
  • C. C
  • D. Both A and B
  • E. Both C and D

Explanation: Option B is the isotonic solution, and option C is the hypotonic solution as it causes the cells to fill with water due to the movement of…

  • B. Intestine
  • C. Liver and Intestine
  • D. Adipose tissue

Explanation: a) Liver: High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL) is synthesized in the liver. HDL is a type of lipoprotein that plays a crucial role in the…

Correct answer: Liver
  • A. Both the atria are towards the left side
  • B. Both the ventricles are towards the left side
  • C. Entire heart is on the left side
  • D. The aorta is on the left side

Explanation: Option B: This option is the correct answer. It states that the beating of the heart is heard on the left side because both the ventricles…

Correct answer: Both the ventricles are towards the left side
  • A. Ascent of sap
  • B. Plasmolysis
  • C. Imbibition

Explanation: A hydathode is a type of pore, commonly found in angiosperms, that secretes water through pores in the epidermis of leaf margin through…

Correct answer: Guttation
  • A. Over extension
  • B. Abrasion
  • C. Physical trauma
  • D. Contraction

Explanation: Pericardium prevents the heart from over extension; Pericardial fluid prevents the heart from abrasion and ribcage prevents it from…

Correct answer: Over extension
  • A. Cellulose
  • B. Lignin
  • C. Pectin
  • D. Glucose

Explanation: Answer is "Glucose"Explanation: Glucose is soluble in water because it is a monosaccharide in nature.

Correct answer: Glucose
  • A. Secondary cell wall
  • B. Middle lamella
  • C. Cell membrane
  • D. Primary cell wall

Explanation: The primary cell wall of the plant is composed of cellulose, pectic compounds mostly polysaccharides, and hemicellulose. It lacks lignin.

Correct answer: Primary cell wall
  • A. MC complex
  • B. lmmunogen
  • C. Mucus
  • D. Antibodies

Explanation: An antigen is a foreign substance that can stimulate the production of antibodies by the immune system.

Correct answer: Antibodies
  • A. Plasmodcsmala
  • B. Cortex
  • C. Endodennis
  • D. Pith

Explanation: In roots, the apoplast pathway of water is disrupted when water reaches the endodermis.

Correct answer: Endodennis
  • A. Erythrocytes
  • B. Leukocytes
  • C. Neutrophils
  • D. Thrombocytes

Explanation: Thrombocytes are called blood platelets.They are minute disc­shaped cell fragments in mammalian blood.

Correct answer: Thrombocytes
  • A. Capillaries
  • B. Arteries
  • C. Veins
  • D. Lymph vessels

Explanation: Yes, the fastest distribution of an injectable material or medicine is achieved by injecting it into the veins.

Correct answer: Veins

  • B. Purkinje system
  • C. Sinoatrial node
  • D. Atrioventricular node

Explanation: SA (sinoatrial) node is a specialized bundle of neurons located in the upper part of the right atrium of the heart.

Correct answer: Sinoatrial node
  • A. Diffusion
  • B. Active transport
  • C. Osmosis
  • D. Facilitated diffusion

Explanation: Answer is "Osmosis"The movement of water molecules from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower water potential through…

Correct answer: Osmosis
