oxidation. Glycolysis is the process of breakdown
of glucose or similar hexose sugar to two
molecules of pyruvic acid through a series of
enzyme mediated reactions (occurs in cytosol)
releasing some energy (as ATP) and reducing
power (as NADH2). It is common to both plant and
animal cells and to both aerobic and anaerobic

Euglenoids is one of the best known groups of

195. The auditory ossicles consist of three small bones
found within a space (the tympanic cavity) in the
temporal bone of the skull. The bones (which are
named for their shape) are connected by synovial
joints. Resting against the oval window of inner
ear is the stapes (stirrup), which articulates with
the middle ossicle called the incus (anvil). The
incus articulates with the malleus (hammer),
whose “handle” is attached to the internal surface
of the tympanic membrane (eardrum). Sound-
induced vibrations of the tympanic membrane are
thereby amplified and transmitted through these
ossicles to the inner ear where they are
interpreted as sound. The intensity of sound waves
is increased about twenty times by the ear
ossicles.
196. Hybridoma cell is a hybrid cell resulting from the
fusion of a normal antibody producing B-
lymphocyte and a multiple myeloma cell from
lymphoid tumor. This hybrid cell is capable of
producing a continuous supply of antibody. Such
cells can produce a done that may be maintained

produced by the fungus Trichoderma polysporum.
This chemical is used as an immunosuppressive
agent in organ transplantation.
198. The secretion of gonadotropins (LH and FSH)
increases gradually during the follicular phase and
stimulates folicular development as well as
secretion of estrogens by the growing follicles.
Both LH and FSH attain a peak level in the middle
of the cycle (about 14th day). Rapid secretion of
LH leading to its maximum level during mid-cycle
called LH surge induces rupture of Graafian follicle
and thereby the release of ovum (ovulation).
Concentration of estrogen in blood is also high
around 14th day and reaches its peak.
