So the correct answer is 'All of the above'.

As a balloon is filled with water,it expands and increases in weight,This shows that water:

  1. Has mass

  2. Occupies space

  3. Is a kind of matter

  4. All of these


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

The balloon expands shows that the water n the balloon is occupying the space and the increase in weight of the balloon proves that water has mass and Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space.

Matter can be defined as something that:

  1. Occupies space

  2. Has mass

  3. Exists in three states

  4. All of the above


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Matter is defined as something  that which occupies space and possesses rest mass, especially as distinct from energy and exists in all the three states

The quantity of matter present in an object is called its ___________.

  1. weight

  2. volume

  3. mass

  4. density


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Mass is the property of a physical body which determines the strength of its mutual gravitational attraction with other bodies. The unit of mass is kilogram.

 Matter is composed of:

  1. atoms

  2. molecules

  3. tiny particles

  4. all of the above


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Matter is anything which have mass and occupy space. Substance and Mixture is the main part of the matter. Substance is the further classified in elements and compound, which is further categorized as atom and molecule.

Option A is correct.

Sarcomere is distance between

  1. Two I-bands

  2. A and I bands

  3. Two Z-lines

  4. Z and A bands


Correct Option: C
Explanation:
  • Each myofibril(a unit of the muscle cell) has alternate dark and light bands on it.
  • The light bands contain actin and are called I-band or Isotropic band, whereas the dark band called ‘A’ or Anisotropic band contains myosin.
  •  In the center of each ‘I’ band is an elastic fibre called ‘Z’ line which bisects it. The thin filaments are firmly attached to the ‘Z’ line.
  • The ‘A’ and ‘I’ bands are arranged alternately throughout the length of the myofibrils. 
  • The sarcomere is considered as the functional unit of contraction. The portion of the myofibril between two successive ‘Z’ lines is considered as a sarcomere. Hence sarcomere is the distance between two Z lines.
  • So, the correct answer is 'Two Z-lines'.
