  • A. 20
  • B. 30
  • C. 25
  • D. 50

Explanation: Since only 1 ml of water is required to eliminate 1 g of nitrogen in the form of uric acid, then 50 g of nitrogen will be eliminated by 50…

  • A. 3.00
  • B. 4.50
  • C. 2.00
  • D. 6.00

Explanation: Pepsin works best at a pH of around 2.00, which is highly acidic. The low pH helps denature proteins and allows pepsin to cleave peptide…

Correct answer: 2.00
  • A. Increases many folds
  • B. Decreases
  • C. Remains constant
  • D. Is doubled

Explanation: Since CO2 reacts with water to form carbonic acid, an increase in CO2 results in a decrease in blood pH resulting in haemoglobin proteins…

Correct answer: Decreases

  • C. Larynx
  • D. Bronchioles

Explanation: Option [a] Air sacs, and alveoli are present at the end of bronchioles in lungs where lungs and blood exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide…

Correct answer: Air sac
  • A. It must be permeable
  • B. It must be thick for low diffusion
  • C. It should be non-vascularized
  • D. It should have low ventilation mechanism

Explanation: Respiratory surfaces, such as the alveoli in the lungs, must be permeable to allow the exchange of gases (oxygen and carbon dioxide)…

Correct answer: It must be permeable
