A Correct answer
Explanation

Photochemical phase includes photolysis of water and production of assimilatory power (ATP and NADPH). It liberates O2  during photolysis of water. 

The photochemical phase do not include fixation of CO2.

Chemical reactions triggered by ___________ transforms the organic material into hydrocarbons.

  1. solar energy

  2. hydroelectric

  3. elevated temperatures

  4. decomposition

C Correct answer
Explanation

The formation of hydrocarbons from organic matter (kerogen) in sedimentary rocks occurs through a process called catagenesis, which is driven by elevated temperatures and pressures over geological time.

Multiple choice zoology nervous system of man parts of the brain brain and its parts brain

What would happen to the person if cerebellum of his brain is damaged?

  1. He will lose his memory power

  2. He will not be able to swallow food properly

  3. He will be unable to coordinate and stand properly

  4. He will lose his powers ofvision and hearing

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

Cerebellum is the  part of the brain which is responsible for balancing the body. It helps in coordination of right and left interpretation done by the central nervous system. When the cerebellum, gets damage the coordination between several movements is lost.

So, the correct answer is 'He will be unable to coordinate and stand properly'

Which part of the human brain controls balance, posture and coordination?

  1. Cerebrum

  2. Cerebellum

  3. Medulla oblongata

  4. Thalamus

  5. Hypothalamus

B Correct answer
Explanation

The cerebellum is a small region at the back of the brain. It is the largest part of hind brain. The cerebellum controls smooth, coordinated movements, helps to maintain muscle tone, posture, and balance.

Multiple choice zoology nervous system of man parts of the brain brain and its parts brain

The brainstem is made up of

  1. Midbrain, Pons, Cerebellum

  2. Midbrain, Pons, Medulla oblongata

  3. Forebrain, Pons, Cerebellum

  4. Cerebellum, Cerebrum, Medulla oblongata

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

The region of the brain that connects the cerebrum to the spinal cord is called as brainstem. It is made up of midbrain, medulla oblongata and pons. It is a site where many cranial nerves are located. The brainstem is involved in te relay of signals between the spinal cord and brain. It also controls the working of the PNS. Thus the correct answer is option B.

Multiple choice zoology frog circulatory system in frog frog - digestive system, circulatory system, excretory system and reproductive system animal diversity - ii (phylum: chordata)

During breeding season, nuptial pad is found in the thumb of

  1. Male frog

  2. Female frog

  3. Both of these

  4. None of these

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

Frog exhibit sexual dimorphism. Male and female are distinguishable externally only during breeding season when the male develop roughed nuptial pads on the bases of the thumb. Nuptial pads help male in holding female, a sexual embrace called am plexus.
