The eukaryotic cells have all of the following except

  1. Peptidoglycan in cell wall

  2. 80 S ribosome

  3. Nuclear membrane

  4. Mitochondria.

A Correct answer
Explanation

A eukaryote is the organism with complex features, i.e, it is apart from the prokaryotic cell it has membrane-bound organelles, especially the nucleus, which contains the genetic material enclosed by the nuclear membrane. A eukaryotic cell has a plasma membrane, cytoplasm, and ribosomes (including the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, chloroplasts, and mitochondria). 

So, the correct answer is option A.

Cuticle occurs over

  1. Virus

  2. Human cell

  3. Plant cell

  4. Bacterium

C Correct answer
Explanation
  • Cuticle can be defined as a protective film which covers the epidermis of leaves, young shoots and aerial parts of the plants.
  • It is mainly made up of lipids and hydrocarbon polymers that is impregnated with wax which is synthesized by the epidermal cells.
  • So, the correct answer is 'Plant cell'.

How many of following statements are not true?
1) Some unicellular Eukaryotes are capable of fixing Nitrogen
2) Infection thread contains an oxygen scavenger called leg-haemoglobin
3) Successful infection of the root hair causes it to curl
4) Ureides have particularly high nitrogen to carbon ratio 

  1. One

  2. Two

  3. Three

  4. All of above

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Statement 1 is false (no eukaryotes fix nitrogen). Statements 2, 3, and 4 are correct. Since only one statement is false, the answer 'One' is correct.

How many organelles of a eukaryotic cell are considered to have an independent existence during early events of evolution?

  1. $1$
  2. $2$
  3. $3$
  4. $4$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

According to the endosymbiotic theory, two major organelles in eukaryotic cells are considered to have evolved from independent prokaryotic organisms, namely mitochondria and chloroplasts. Both contain their own circular DNA and prokaryotic-like ribosomes.

Which of the following statements is true for eukaryotic cells?
i) They have unicellular cells only.
ii) They have a well organized nucleus.
iii) They have lysosomes and peroxisomes.
iv) Blue green algae are eukaryotic cells.

  1. ii and iii

  2. ii only

  3. i and ii

  4. i and iv

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Eukaryotic cells are multicellular cells. They have a well organized nucleus enclosed within nuclear membrane. They have cell organelles like mitochondria, chloroplast, lysosomes, peroxisomes, Golgi bodies, etc. Prokaryotic cells are unicellular cells. They do not have nuclear membrane. Blue green algae are prokaryotic cells as they do not have  membrane bound organelles and nucleus.

Thus, the correct answer is 'ii and iii'.

A mature human erythrocyte has the typical characteristic of

  1. A eukaryotic cell

  2. A prokaryotic cell

  3. Both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cell

  4. Neither eukaryotic nor prokaryotic cell.

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

A mature erythrocyte has all the characters of a eukaryotic cell except the fact that they lack nucleus & other organelles because they shed other organelles  during maturation.

So, the correct optioni s 'A eukaryotic cell'.

Eukaryotics m-RNA's are associated with proteins to form RNP complexes. Some of the complexes may remain in the cytoplasm for a long time before being genetically expressed. Such complexes are known as.

  1. Ribosomes

  2. Polyribosomes

  3. Rnp fibres

  4. Informosomes

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Informosomes are messenger RNA molecules combined with protein, forming ribonucleoprotein complexes that remain stable and untranslated in the cytoplasm for extended periods. They were first discovered by Spirin in embryonic development.
