Questions Related to cell structure

Which of the following is found in plant cells, but not in animal cells?

  1. Cell wall

  2. Nucleus

  3. Endoplasmic reticulum

  4. Mitochondria


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
  • The cell wall is a unique structure present in plant cells. It is found as an outer covering to the plasma membrane. 
  • The cell wall is made up of cellulose, pectin, etc, according to whether it is seen in plants, fungi or bacteria.

An ${A^o}$ is equal to 

  1. $10^{-5}$cm

  2. $10^{-6}$cm

  3. $10^{-7}$cm

  4. $10^{-8}$cm


Correct Option: D

One micrometre (micron, $\mu$m) is equal to

  1. $0.1$mm

  2. $0.01$mm

  3. $0.001$mm

  4. $0.0001$mm


Correct Option: C

A nanometre (nm) is equal to 

  1. $10^{-9}$m

  2. $10^{-7}$cm

  3. $10 {A^o}$

  4. All of the above


Correct Option: D

Which is a proper unit for measurement in microscopy?

  1. Micron

  2. Angstrom

  3. Nanometre

  4. All of the above.


Correct Option: C

$1$ micron is equal to _____________.

  1. $1/100$mm

  2. $1/1000$mm

  3. $1/10000$mm

  4. $1/1,00,000$mm.


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

1 Micrometer (µm) is equal to 0.001 millimeter (mm). To convert micrometers to millimeters, multiply the micrometer value by 0.001 or divide by 1000.

Hence, B is the correct option.

The smallest measuring unit of cytology is

  1. Nanometre, nm.

  2. Angstrom, A$^o$.

  3. Micrometre, $\mu$m.

  4. Micron $\mu$.


Correct Option: A

Angstrom ($A{^o}$) is equal to

  1. $0.01\mu$m.

  2. $0.001\mu$m.

  3. $0.0001\mu$m.

  4. $0.00001\mu$m.


Correct Option: C

$1$m$\mu$ (millimicron) is equal to

  1. $10^{-5}$mm.

  2. $10^{-6}$mm.

  3. $10^{-7}$mm.

  4. $10^{-8}$mm.


Correct Option: B

Which of the following statements is false?

  1. Electrophoresis can help separate proteins.

  2. Image formed by compound microscope is vertical and erect.

  3. An angstrom is one-hundredth of a micron.

  4. Unstained living cells can be studied with the help of a phase-contrast microscope.


Correct Option: C
