Balbbharati Registration No.: 2018MH0022 P.O, No.t291 TEID: 1797 Preface HSC is the comerstone of a student’s career as it opens up the doors to turn their dreams into reality It acts as a platform for students to specialise in a field that interests them the most. However, to achieve this it becomes imperative to get into the details of each subject and to clarify its fundamentals. Adequate knowledge base thus helps students to boost their self confidence and pave their way up in the final examinations. It is rightly said, ‘Practice makes a man perfeet’. Keeping this in mind, we are proud to introduce “Std XII Sci. Model Question Papers With Solutions”. This set of question papers provides students thorough practice for preparation of their final examinations. The book consists of 16 Model Question Papers in all; based on Physics, Chemistry, Maths and Biology (a set of four model question papers for cach subject) In the light of current pandemic, the reduction of syllabus for the academic year 2020 - 2021 proposed by Board of Higher Secondary Education is taken into consideration while preparing each model paper. Along with these question papers, we've provided Model Answers with relevant marks so as to make sure that students understand the importance of each question. These question papers reflect the latest changes in paper pattern as updated by the Board of Higher Secondary Education. We are sure that, these question papers would provide ample practice to students in a systematic ‘manner and would boost their confidence to face the challenges posed in examinations, We welcome your valuable suggestions and feedback towards this book, We wish the students all the best for their examinations! ‘Yours faithfully Publisher Edition: First Disclaimer This seteence bok is wansrmtve work based ett cota publ by Buca of Textbook We he pubis ae making theca book which onstaes ss fr eof etal ones which re Wanfomed by ang and sbeng wth iw to mph the santo enable he ses nemo, meme a ‘epoduce samen exami ‘Thi wrk ix prt imped po he couse work apes hy the Marsa Sat Boel of Secondary and Higher Sosy Eaton, Pe, ser ae hs eon taken the psiaton of harkens book bythe Aho he ct he sms.

In aryl halides, one of the lone pairs of electrons on halogen atom is in conjugation with x-electrons of the ring. Due to resonance, the C-X bond acquires partial double bond character. Thus, the C-X bond.in-haloarenes-is. stronger and shorter than haloalkanes. Hence, it is difficult to break C-X bond in haloarenes. (eg. C-CI bond length in chlorobenzene is 169 pm as compared toC-Cl bond length in alkyl chloride which is 178 pm). ‘Therefore, haloarenes are less reactive than haloalkanes.

Genetic code has distinct polarity: Genetic code shows definite polarity ie. direetion. It is always read in 5’ —> 3 direction and not in 3” -> 5° direction. Otherwise message will change e.g, 5° AUG 3° Genetic code is non-overlappin; Code is non-overlapping ise. each single base is a part of only one codon. Adjacent codons do not overlap. iv. | Genetic code is commaless: There is no gap or punctuation mark between successive! consecutive codons. v. | Genetic code has degeneracy: Usually single amino acid is encoded by single codon, However, some amino acids are encoded by more than one codon. eg. Cysteine has two codons, while isoleucine has three codons. This is called degeneracy of the code, Degeneracy of the code is explained by Wobble hypothesis. Here, the first two bases in different codons are identical but the third one, varies. vi | Genetic code is universal: In most of the living organisms the specific codon specifies same amino acid. e.g. Codon AUG always specifies amino acid methionine. vii. | Genetic code is non-ambiguous: Specific amino acid is encoded by a particular codon. Alternatively, two different amino acids will never be encoded by the same codon. viii. Initiation codon and termination codon: AUG is always an initiation codon in any and every mRNA. AUG codes for amino acid methionine. Out of 64 codons, three codons viz. UAA, UAG and UGA are termination codons which terminate/ stop the process of elongation of polypeptide chain, as they do not code for any amino acid.

Bt toxin activity has been against many species of insects within the orders of Lepidoptera, Diptera, and Coleoptera. Similarly, the gene of a-amylase inhibitor (@AI-Pv) has been isolated from adzuki bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) and transferred to tobacco and this gene works against pests like Zabrotes subfasciatus and Callosobruchus chinensis.

This law is based on dihybrid cross. It describes how different genes or alleles present on separate chromosomes independently separate from each other, during formation of gametes, These alleles are then randomly united in fertilization, In dihybrid cross, F: phenotypic ratio 9:3:3:1 indicates that the two pairs of characters behave independent of each other.
