Explanation: Tonoplast is the membrane separating the Vacuole and Cytoplasm

Correct answer: Vacuole and Cytoplasm
  • A. Chloroplast
  • B. Chromoplast
  • C. Leucoplast
  • D. Amyloplast

Explanation: Chromoplasts are coloured protoplasts. They attract insects and cause pollination.

Correct answer: Chromoplast
  • A. Cisternae
  • B. Cristae
  • C. Mesosome

Explanation: The folds of the Inner Membrane of mitochondria are called Cristae

Correct answer: Cristae
  • A. Mitochondria
  • B. Golgi Bodies
  • C. Lysosomes
  • D. Chloroplast

Explanation: The organelles that are spherical sacs, surrounded by a single membrane, and contain hydrolytic enzymes are "Lysosomes." Lysosomes are…

Correct answer: Lysosomes
  • A. Nucleus only
  • B. Nucleolus only
  • C. Nucleus & nucleolus only
  • D. None of the above

Explanation: Nucleolus is responsible for the synthesis of ribosomal RNA and they are also responsible for storing the RNA.

Correct answer: Nucleolus only
  • A. DNA polymerase
  • B. Salivary amylase
  • C. Pancreatic amylase
  • D. DNA helicase

Explanation: The correct answer is DNA helicase since it is the only one whose final destination is inside the cell.

Correct answer: DNA helicase
  • A. Nuclear membrane
  • B. Inner mitochondrial membrane
  • C. Endoplasmic reticulum
  • D. Plasma membrane

Explanation: Option B is correct since membranes are involved in ATP production (such as the internal membranes of mitochondria and chloroplasts)…

Correct answer: Inner mitochondrial membrane
  • A. Endocytosis
  • B. Pinocytosis
  • C. Phagocytosis
  • D. Exocytosis

Explanation: Hormone secretion is always done by exocytosis. All the other options are used for other various processes inside of the cell.

Correct answer: Exocytosis
  • A. Chloroplasts
  • B. Chromoplasts
  • C. Leucoplasts
  • D. All of them

Explanation: Option C is correct since the roots of plants contain 'leucoplast' which is colorless, plastids, and act as storage of food.Option A is…

Correct answer: Leucoplasts
  • A. Chloroplasts
  • B. Chromoplasts
  • C. Leucoplasts
  • D. All of these options are correct

Explanation: c) Leucoplasts:Leucoplasts are a third type of plastid found in plant cells.

Correct answer: Leucoplasts
