except they
1) do not normally interbreed with other species in nature
2) can be distinguished from other species
3) are incapable of hybridization with other species

12. Viral genome attached to the bacterial genome is called
1) Prophage
2) Lytic phage
3) Heterophage
4) Viriophage
13. Functions of the capsid include.
1) Protect genetic material from nuclease attack
2) Attachment and injection of viral genome into the host
3) Determines the antigenic specificity of the virus
4) All of the above
14. The major advantage of a plant with VAM is
1) increased N absorption
2) increased P absorption
3) increased K absorption
4) increased Mn absorption
15. early blight of potato is caused by
1) Phytophthora infestans
2) Alternaria solani
3) Albugo candida
4) Cercospora personata
16. algae term is applied to cyanobacteria on the basis of
1) cell wall
2) photosynthetic activity
3) flagella
4) sexual reproduction
17. Bacteria were regarded to be plants because
1) Some of them are green
2) They are present every where
3) Some of them cannot move
4) They have a rigid cell wall
18. Bacteria cannot survive in a highly salted pickle because
1) Salts inhibit reproduction
2) Bacteria do not get enough light for photosynthesis
3) They become plasmolysed and consequently killed
4) The pickle does not contain nutrients necessary for bacteria to live
