Show Answer
Ans.(c)
Sol. Blood group AB individuals have both A and B antigens on the surface of their RBCs, and their blood plasma does not contain any antibodies against either A or B antigen. Therefore, an individual with type AB blood can receive blood from any group (with AB being preferable), but cannot donate blood to either A or B group. They are known as universal recipients.

(d) Pedigree line/ वंशावली लाइन
Show Answer
Ans.(a)
Sol. A clone is obtained by vegetative propagation of a single plant and it propagates vegetatively in successive generation. It offers excitation for exploiting desirable mutations. It maintains purity of race in heterozygous state. The clones retains their original characteristics after many years of vegetative propagation i.e. they are stable.

(c) A plant / पौधा
(d) An animal / पशु
Show Answer
Ans.(d)
Sol. Sponges are animals of the phylum Porifera. They are multicellular organisms which have bodies full of pores and channels allowing water to circulate through them, consisting of jelly-like mesohyl sandwiched between two thin layers of cells. Sponges have unspecialized cells that can transform into other types and which often migrate between the main cell layers and the mesohyl in the process. Sponges do not have nervous, digestive or circulatory systems.

Q9.Which of the following blood groups may be present in the children of a couple having blood groups A and B, respectively ?
रक्त समूह ए और बी के क्रम में क्रमशः एक जोड़े के बच्चों में निम्न रक्त समूह कौन सा मौजूद हो सकता है?
(a) A and B only / केवल ए और बी
(b) A, B and AB / ए,बी और / एबी
(c) A, B, AB and O / ए,बी,एबी और ओ
(d) AB only / केवल एबी
Show Answer
Ans.(c)
Sol. A heterozygous woman with type A blood and a heterozygous man with type B blood have, as you figured with your Punnet square, a 25% chance with each child that the child will have blood group O. 25% chance for blood group A, 25% chance for blood group B, and 25% chance for blood group AB. The same is true for the reciprocal cross: a heterozygous woman with type B blood and a heterozygous man with type A blood. In such a family, the existence of a child with blood group O is evidence that both parents are heterozygous.

Show Answer
Ans.(b)
Sol. Thiamine also called vitamin B1, named as the “thio-vitamins” (“sulfur-containing vitamin”) is a water-soluble vitamin of the B complex. First named aneurin for the detrimental neurological effects if not present in the diet. it was eventually assigned the generic descriptor name vitamin B1. Its phosphate derivatives are involved in many cellular processes. The best-characterized form is thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP), a coenzyme in the catabolism of sugars and amino acids. Thiamine is used in the biosynthesis of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine and gammaaminobutyric acid (GABA).

(b) Antibodies / एंटीबाडीज
(c) Hormones / होर्मोनेस
(d) Interferons / इंटरफेरॉन
Show Answer
Ans.(a)
Sol. Pathogenic bacteria secrete various virulence factors, including toxins, lipases and proteases that allow them to infect, breakdown and colonize host tissue. Among various modes of action that the pathogenic bacteria use to damage the host, pore formation (by pore forming toxins (PFTs)) and lipid hydrolysis (by phospholipases) modes are common in damaging the eukaryotic cell membrane.The attenuated pathogenic bacteria are engineered to secrete the antigen into the periplasmic space of the bacteria or into the environment surrounding the bacteria.
