Question 1: The receptor site of acrosome are exposed and become active to penetrate the egg. This process is called
(a) Activation
(b) Capitation
(c) Reactivation
(d) Deactivation
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (b) Capitation

Explanation:
1. Capacitation of Sperm The sperms in the female is genital tract are made capable of fertilizing the egg by the secretion of female genital tract. These secretions of the female genital tract removes the coating substances deposited on the surface of the sperms, particularly those on acrosome. Thus, the receptor sites on the acrosome are exposed and sperm become active to penetrate the egg. This phenomenon of sperm activation in mammals is called capacitation. It takes about 5-6 hr for capacitation of sperm

Question 2: Which of them is not a correct match?
(a) Proliferative phase-Rapid regeneration of myometrium and maturation of Graafian follicle
(b) Secretory phase-Development of corpus luteum and increased secretion of progesterone
(c) Menstruation-Breakdown of myometrium and ovum is not fertilized
(d) Ovulation-LH and FSH attain last peak and sharp full in secretion of progesterone
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (d) Ovulation-LH and FSH attain last peak and sharp full in secretion of progesterone

Explanation:
1. In the ovulatory phase, production of FSH decreases, while that of LH increases it causes ovulation. The ovum is drawn into Fallopian tube

Question 3: Hormone …A… secretes by the anterior lobe of pituitary, which stimulates the ovarian follicle and follicle secrets the …B… hormone. Here A and B refers to

Explanation:
1. A-FSH; B-Oestrogen

Question 4: In which of the following, the dead space is highest?
(a) Old man
(b) Old woman
(c) Young man
(d) Young woman
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) Old man

Explanation:
1. Biological process of ageing is higher in human males than in females. Thus, dead space is highest in old men.

Question 5: Binding of sperm to secondary oocyte cause …A… which ensures ….B… . The words suitable to fill the blanks are
(a) A-polyspermy; B-polarisation
(b) A-polarisation; B-polyspermy

Question 7: Binary fission is a mode of
(a) Micropropagation
(b) Vegetative propagation
(c) Macropropagation
(d) Sexual reproduction
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (b) Vegetative propagation

Explanation:
1. Binary fission is a mode of vegetative reproduction, in which simple cell division takes place. The unicelled forms like diatoms, desmids, yeast, slime moulds, etc, multiply by this process.

Question 8: Arrhenotoky is also called
(a) Diploid parthenogenesis
(b) Haploid parthenogenesis
(c) Incomplete parthenogenesis
(d) Complete parthenogenesis
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (b) Haploid parthenogenesis

Explanation:
1. Parthenogenesis (Apomixis)
2. It is the development of a new individual from a single gamete (generally the egg/ovum) without involving fertilisation. On the basis of chromosomes sets, parthenogenesis is of two types(i) Arrhenotoky (haploid) parthenogenesis). Haploid eggs grow to form haploid males \(e.g.,\) arachnids, some insects. (ii) Thelytoky (diploid parthenogenesis). Diploid eggs grow without fertilisation into diploid individuals, generally females \(e.g.,\)Gall fly. Parthenogenesis can be natural or artificial. Natural parthenogenesis may be obligatory or cyclic.
3. Obligatory/Complete Parthenogenesis Males are absent. Females develop parthenogenesis, \(e.g.,\) rotifers, Typhlina brahmina (small lizard, 15 cm long),Lacerta saxicola armeniaca (caucasian rock lizard), Cnemidophorus (whiptail lizards of America).
4. Cyclic/IncompleteParthenogenesis Both sexual and parthenogenetic individuals occur. In aphids several generations of parthenogenetic females develop followed by formation of both male and females to perform sexual reproduction. In Turkey, 40% of the males develop parthenogenetically. In honeybee, male of drone develops parthenogenetically (no meiosis at the time of spermatogenesis) while queen and workers develop from fertilized eggs. Also in wasps and ants. In gall fly, larvae may lay eggs that develop parthenogenetically (paedogenesis)

Question 9: The best definition of the process of gastrulation is that it is a process where the
(a) Single layered blastula become two layered
(b) Archenteron is formed
(c) Zygote gets converted into larva
(d) Cells move to occupy their definite position
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (b) Archenteron is formed

Explanation:
1. Gastrulation is the formation of gastrula from blastula. It is that phase of embryonic development during which the cells of blastula move in small mass to attain the final location. Such movement of cells is called morphogenetic movement.

Question 10: Why menstrual cycle do not takes place regulary?
(a) High level of hormone in blood
(b) Fertilization of ovum
(c) Early release of ovum
(d) Psychological region
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) High level of hormone in blood

Explanation:
1. Menstrual cycle do not takes place regularly because of high levels of hormones in the blood

Question 11: 2\(n\)=16 is a primary spermatocyte, which is in metaphase of first meiotic division. What shall be the total number of chromatids in each of the secondary spermatocyte?
(a) 32
(b) 8
(c) 16
(d) 24
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (c) 16

Explanation:
1. In spermatogenesis, primary spermatocyte undergoes meiosis-I and as a result of which two haploid secondary spermatocytes formed. Thus, for the given case secondary spermatocyte possesses 8 chromosomes, i.e.,\(n\)=8 and 16 chromatids because each chromosome divides along its length into two chromatids.
