  1. Cholesterol

  2. Animal fat

  3. High density lipoprotein cholesterol

  4. Low density lipoprotein cholesterol

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Molecules called lipoproteins to carry cholesterol in the blood. Two important kinds of lipoproteins are low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL). LDL cholesterol is often referred to as "bad cholesterol" because too much is unhealthy. HDL is often referred to as “good cholesterol” because it is protective.

So, the correct answer is 'High-density lipoprotein cholesterol'.

A mixture containing DNA fragments a, b, c and d with molecular weights of a+b = c, a > b and d > c, was subjected to agarose gel electrophoresis. The movement of these fragments from cathode to anode sides of the gel would be

  1. Smaller molecules move faster

  2. Both smaller and larger will move at same pace

  3. Larger will move faster

  4. None of these

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:
  • In Agarose gel electrophoresis we separate macromolecules like DNA, RNA and protein on the basis of their molecular size and charge.
  • In this Shorter molecules move faster and migrate farther than longer ones because shorter molecules migrate more easily through the pores of the gel. 
  • DNA migrate towards anode.

Which of the following is correct mode of reproduction?

biology the life cycle of animals how do animals reproduce? excretory, nervous and reproductive system structure and functions of living organisms -ii

  1. Budding in Yeast

  2. Fragmentation in spongilla

  3. Zoospore in Amoeba

  4. Binary fission in Hydra

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:
  • Yeasts are fungi that grow as single cells, producing daughter cells either by budding (the budding yeasts) or by binary fission (the fission yeasts)
  • A small bud which will become the daughter cell is formed on the parent (mother) cell and enlarges with continued growth. As the daughter cell grows, the mother cell duplicates and then segregates its DNA. The nucleus divides and migrates into the daughter cell.
  • Hence Budding in Yeast is the correct mode of reproduction.
  • So, the correct answer is 'Budding in Yeast'.
