(30) Answer : (3)

Solution:
Crystalline solids are anisotropic in nature.

BOTANY

(31) Answer : (2)

Solution:
Seed plants exhibit internal fertilisation. Organisms exhibiting external fertilisation show synchrony in release
of gametes.

Solution:
Zoospores are common spores produced by algae. Amoeba reproduce by binary fission
(35) Answer : (4)
Solution:
The majority of algae show external fertilization.

(36) Answer : (4)

Solution:

 There is no natural death in single-celled organisms, e.g., Amoeba, Paramoecium, Euglena, etc.
Penicillium is a multicellular organism.

(38) Answer : (2)

Solution:
Strobilanthus kunthiana flowers once in every 12 years.

(39) Answer : (1)

Solution:
The term Clone is used to describe morphologically and genetically similar individuals.

(40) Answer : (3)

Solution:
Sequential events during sexual reproduction in an organism is completed in three steps : pre-fertilization,
fertilization and post-fertilization events.

(41) Answer : (1)

Solution:
Fusion of two haploid gametes leads to the formation of a cell called zygote and it is always diploid.

(42) Answer : (2)

Solution:
The ovary develop into the fruit which have a thick wall called pericarp that is protective in function.

(43) Answer : (1)

Solution:
Fragmentation is shown in some algae, fungi, etc. Spirogyra reproduces by fragmentation.

ZOOLOGY

(46) Answer : (2)

Hint:
Meiocytes are the diploid cells.
Solution:
Chromosome number in meiocyte of housefly, fruitfly and butterfly are 12, 8 and 380 respectively.

(47) Answer : (4)

Hint:
More than one are correct
Solution:
In some organisms like rotifers, honeybees and even some lizards and birds (turkey), the female gamete
undergoes development to form new organism without fertilisation. This phenomenon is called
parthenogenesis.
(48) Answer : (2)
Solution:
Oestrus cycle is present in non-primate mammals like cows, sheep, rats, deers, dogs, tiger etc. instead of
menstrual cycle.
(49) Answer : (3)
Solution:
Sexual reproduction is an elaborate, complex and slow process
(50) Answer : (2)
Hint:
Single celled organisms are immortal.
Solution:
In unicellular organisms, cell division results in reproduction. So, there is no natural death in them and they are
considered as immortal.

(51) Answer : (3)

Solution:
In all fresh water sponges (eg. Spongilla) and some marine sponges (eg. Sycon) the parent individual release
a specialised mass of cells enclosed in a common opaque envelope called the gemmule.

(52) Answer : (3)
Hint:
Step that starts with division of zygote
Solution:
The correct sequence of events in human reproduction is
Gametogenesis → Gamete transfer → Syngamy →Zygote →Cleavage →Cell differentiation →Organogenesis
(53) Answer : (3)
Hint:
Select the product of syngamy.
Solution:
Zygote is a unicellular diploid structure that serves as vital link between organisms of one generation to next
and ensures continuity of species.
(54) Answer : (1)

Life span of crocodile is 60 years.
(55) Answer : (1)
Solution:
Bulbourethral gland/Cowper’s gland secrete lubricant.
(56) Answer : (3)
Hint:
Ureter passes urine to urinary bladder.
Solution:
The urethra carries urine from the urinary bladder and extends through the penis to its external opening called
urethral meatus. The enlarged end of penis is called glans penis and is covered by foreskin.

Solution:
Lower temperature helps in spermatogenesis.
The scrotal sac provides a temperature which is about 2°C lower than core body temperature.
(58) Answer : (3)
Solution:
Vasa efferentia are ducts which carry sperms from rete testis to vas deferens.

(59) Answer : (1)

Solution:
Leydig/interstitial cells synthesise and secrete testicular hormones called androgens. Sertoli cells provide
nourishment to developing sperm.

(60) Answer : (3)

Solution:
Ejaculatory duct is formed by union of vas deferens and duct of seminal vesicle of same side.
