In testis of frog, there are no
Sertoli cells
spermatocytes
spermatids
intestinal cells
A.
Sertoli cells
Sertoli cells are characteristic of only mammalian testis for the nourishment of spermatozoan.
The controlling centre of cell is
nucleus
nucleolus
mitochondria
ribosome
A.
nucleus
Hammerling proved that nucleus is the main controlling centre of cell while working on Acetabularia.
Kidney stones are crystals of
sodium chloride
silica
calcium oxalate
potassium chloride
C.
calcium oxalate
Kidney stones are commonly crystals of calcium oxalate and the patients are therefore, advised to avoid spinach, rhubarb and asparagus in their diet.
One difference in breathing mechanism of frog and rabbit is that
expansion of frog's lungs is not much
abdominal movements more in frog
diaphragm and rib muscles play important role in rabbit
air reaching frog's lungs is to cool
C.
diaphragm and rib muscles play important role in rabbit
Respiration of frog is not very efficient as compared to mammals. The diaphragm is absent in frog whereas it is found in rabbit.
Iron is stored in bone marrow as
haemosedrin
ferritin
haematin
None of these
B.
ferritin
Iron is stored in bone marrow and liver in the form of ferritin and transferrin coming from food sources. They both are the important sites for the storage of iron.
Red muscle cells are rich in
only myosin
haemoglobin and glucose
lactic acid and acetic acid
myoglobin and cytochrome
D.
myoglobin and cytochrome
Red muscles are the muscles in which dark bands or fibers are dominant, and they contain a large amount of myoglobin and mitochondria in it. Red muscle fibres are thin, dark red and possess a red haem protein called myoglobin.
Pepsin acts in
basic medium
acidic medium
neutral medium
All of these
B.
acidic medium
Pepsin acts in an acidic medium. The HCl present in the stomach provides the pH (1-2) necessary to ensure the activation of pepsinogen to active form pepsin.
All the following are the properties of skeletal muscles except
excitability
contractility
rhythmicity
toxicity
C.
rhythmicity
Excitability, contractibility and toxicity are the properties of skeletal muscles. Rhythmicity is one of the property or feature of cardiac balance.
During mitosis nuclear membrane disappears at
early prophase
late prophase
metaphase
anaphase
B.
late prophase
In mitosis, during late prophase or prometaphase, nuclear membrane completely disappear while mutant form is observed rarely.
In human beings, which hormone acts as a mild growth hormone?
Prolactin
Oestrogen
Progesterone
Cortisol
A.
Prolactin
Prolactin is the lactogenic hormone. It stimulates mammary growth and differentiation and milk production. Therefore, it indirectly controls growth.
