Which one forms ATP?

  1. Fe and P

  2. N and P

  3. Fe and Mo

  4. Mg and Mn


Correct Option: B

Energy liberated during respiration is stored as

  1. ATP

  2. ADP

  3. FAD

  4. NADP


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Cellular respiration requires oxidation of organic substrates for the liberation of energy. The energy released is stored in every living cell in the form of a universal high energy molecule called ATP or adenosine triphosphate.

So the answer is 'ATP'.

ATP is

  1. Adenine triphosphate

  2. Adenosine tetraphosphate

  3. Adenosine triphosphate

  4. Adenine tetraphosphate


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Adenosine triphosphate is the long form of ATP, it is the complex organic chemical that participates in many processes. Found in all forms of life, ATP is often referred to as the "molecular unit of currency" of intracellular energy transfer.

So, the correct option is C.

When ATP molecules is hydrolysed in ADP, then the quantity of energy released is about

  1. 120 cal

  2. 1,200 cal

  3. 12,000 cal

  4. 1,20,000 cal


Correct Option: C

Common immediate source of energy in cellular activity or energy currency of the cell is

  1. DNA

  2. ATP

  3. RNA

  4. NAD


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The common immediate source of energy in cellular activity is ATP molecule. It is also called as energy currency of the cell. ATP molecules are formed as a result of phosphorylation. It is used in various cellular processes for providing energy.

Which one is not a commercial energy?

  1. Coal

  2. Animal power

  3. Petroleum and natural gas

  4. Electricity


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Commercial energy is obtained to the users at some price and is used mostly for commercial purposes. It is a non-renewable form of energy. Where as, non-commercial energy is a renewable form, obtained from cow dung, fire wood and agricultural waste. 

So the correct option is 'Animal power'

Vaccines which are to be avoided during pregnancy are all except:

  1. Rubella vaccine

  2. Hepatitis B vaccine

  3. Tetanus vaccine

  4. Influenza vaccine


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

  • Vaccines which are to be avoided during pregnancy include rubella vaccine, small pox vaccine and oral polio-myelitis vaccine

So, the correct answer is 'Rubella vaccine'

Vaccine is

  1. Live oral pathogen

  2. Inactivated antigen

  3. Inactivated pathogen

  4. Complete pathogen


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

A vaccine is a biological preparation that provides acquired immunity to a particular disease. A vaccine typically contains an agent that resembles a disease-causing micro-organism and is often made from weakened (attenuated) or killed forms of the pathogen, its toxins or one of its surface proteins.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C.

BCG vaccination is to be given to a new born child

  1. Immediately after child birth

  2. Within 48 hours

  3. Within seven days

  4. Within six month


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

These are the antigenic substance produced from the causative agent of disease, which helps in providing immunity against one or more disease. BCG stands for Bacille Calmette Guerin, is the vaccine provided against the disease tuberculosis (TB). It is given to 6 months old babies.


Therefore the right answer is option "D".

Statement (SI) : Injections provided against the tetanus is a passive immunization
Statement (SII) : Injection provided against the tetanus contains preformed antibodies

  1. Statements SI and SII are correct

  2. Statement SI is correct but SII is incorrect

  3. Statement SI is incorrect but SII is correct

  4. Statement SI is incorrect bur SII is correct


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Passive immunization is the immunity which develops due to the administration of antibodies for protection from the antigens persisting in the body. Tetanus injection is given against the bacteria  Clostridium tetani. It has antibodies administered which fight this infection.

So, the correct option is 'Statements SI and SII are correct'.
