How many life-cycle stages does an incomplete metamorphosis have?

  1. 1/2

  2. 3

  3. 3$^{1/2}$

  4. 2
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

  • Complete metamorphosis consists of four stages i.e. egg, larva, pupa and adult.
  • Incomplete metamorphosis consists of three stages i.e. egg, nymph and adult.
  • Examples of organisms having incomplete metamorphosis in their life cycle are termites, praying mantis and cockroaches.
So, the correct option is '3'.

The changes from larvae to adult is called ______

  1. Metabolism

  2. Metamorphosis

  3. Metastasis

  4. Morphology
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Metabolism is the sum of the physical and chemical processes in an organism by which its material substance is produced, maintained,
and destroyed, and by which energy is made available.
Metamorphosis is a profound change in form from one stage to the next in the
life history of an organism, as from the caterpillar to the pupa and from the pupa to the adult butterfly.
Metastasis the transference of disease-producing organisms to other parts of the body by way of the blood or lymphatic vessels or membranous surfaces Morphology is the branch of biology dealing with the form and structure of organisms

So, the correct answer is 'Metamorphosis'.

Butterfly and cockroach develops by which metamorphosis?

  1. Complete and Incomplete

  2. Complete and Complete

  3. Incomplete and Complete

  4. Incomplete and Incomplete
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

  • Complete metamorphosis consists of four stages i.e. egg, larva, pupa and adult. 
  • Incomplete metamorphosis consists of three stages i.e. egg, nymph and adult.
  • Complete metamorphosis occurs in wasps, ants and butterflies while incomplete metamorphosis occurs in termites, praying mantis and cockroaches.
So, the correct answer is 'Complete and Incomplete'.

Which of the following processes refers to the casting away of the skin by a caterpillar to allow a larger caterpillar to emerge?

  1. Metamorphosis

  2. Chrysalis

  3. Moulting

  4. Development
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Moulting is the process of casting off the dead rigid outer covering or the exoskeleton or skin of the animal body during its growth. The young larvae casts off its skin in order to allow the growth of the larvae to from the adult. This process is also known as ecdysis.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

The extra-embryonic membranes of the mammalian embryo are derived from 

  1. Formative cells

  2. Follicle cells

  3. Inner cell mass

  4. Trophoblast
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Extraembryonic membranes are formed outside the embryo from the trophoblast only in amniotes (reptiles, birds and mammals) and perform specific functions.

Periblastula is found in 

  1. Man

  2. Insects

  3. Sycon

  4. Reptiles
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Periblastula is the blastula of a centrolecithal egg, which is formed by superficial segmentation. This kind blastula occurs in insects.
Centrolecithal eggs develop to superficial blastula, which consists of a single layer of epithelial cells surrounding the centrally placed yolk and there is no blastocoele.
Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

Changes that convert larva into adult constitute

  1. Metastasis

  2. Metagenesis

  3. Alternation

  4. Metamorphosis
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

  • Metamorphosis refers to the way that organisms develop, grow, and change form.
  • Metamorphosis majorly occurs in insects.
  • metamorphosis has four stages i.e egg, larva, pupa and adult. The female lays eggs then the larva hatch from the eggs. Then the larva makes cocoons around themselves this stage is called a pupa. Inside the cocoon, the larvae change into the adult.
  • Hence Changes that convert larva into adult constitute metamorphosis
So, the correct answer is 'Metamorphosis'.

After the rain, tadpoles were found swimming in a pond but not the frogs. This is due to 

  1. Lack of pituitary hormones

  2. Lack of sex hormones

  3. Lack of thyroxine

  4. Lack of nitrogen in water
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Tadpole is one of the developmental stages in the life cycle of frogs. The larvae are free-swimming forms which are found in the water. The larvae get metamorphosed to form the adult frog. The thyroid hormones are required for the control and regulation of the events which take place during metamorphosis. 

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

Tadpoles of Frog can be made to grow as giant sized tadpoles, if they are

  1. Administered large amount of thyroxine

  2. Administered antithyroid substance like thiourea

  3. Reared on a diet rich in egg yolk

  4. Reared on a diet rich in both egg yolk and glucose
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Thyroxine, the principal hormone, of thyroid gland, is required for tissue differentiation and metamorphosis (the rapid transformation from the larval to the adult form) in amphibians. So in the presence of antithyroid substance, (that inhibits the synthesis of thyroid hormone) e.g., thiourea, tadpoles remain in the larval stage indefinitely. Thiourea is an organic compound of carbon, nitrogen, sulphur and hydrogen. It is similar to urea, except that oxygen atom is replaced by a sulphur atom. 

So, the correct answer is 'Administered antithyroid substance like thiourea'.

Axolotl larva shows
i. Neoteny and paedogenesis
ii. Absence of thyroxine affects metamorphosis 
iii. It is hemichordate

  1. i, ii and iii correct

  2. i and ii correct

  3. ii and iii correct

  4. iii correct
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

The remarkable axolotl or Ambystoma mexicanum is part of the family of 'mole salamanders', but exhibits an unusual and extreme trait known as neoteny, or paedomorphosis. This is the retention of larval stage characteristics throughout life, so axolotls usually never fully resemble an adult salamander. It is a urochordate.

So, the correct option is ‘i and ii correct’.
