  1. Which of the following statements regarding the Class
    Phycomycetes is correct?
    (a) These are found in aquatic habitats and on decaying
    wood in moist and damp places or as obligate
    parasites on plants.
    (b) Mycelium in these fungi is aseptate and coenocytic.
    (c) Asexual reproduction occurs by motile zoospores and
    by non-motile aplanospores.
    (d) All of these.

  2. Study the given figure of structure of TMV (Tobacco Mosaic
    Virus) and select the option that correctly identifies the
    labellings A and B.


A B
(a) ssDNA Capsomeres
(b) dsDNA Capsomeres
(c) ssRNA Capsomeres
(d) dsRNA Tail fibres



  1. Select the incorrect statement regarding heterocyst.
    (a) Heterocyst is a large sized thin walled cell
    occurring only at terminal position in filamentous
    cyanobacteria.
    (b) The wall of heterocyst is impermeable to oxygen but
    permeable to nitrogen.
    (c) Heterocyst contains enzyme nitrogenase and is
    specialised to perform nitrogen fixation.
    (d) PS II is absent in heterocyst.

  2. Which of the following statements is true about
    viruses?
    (a) All viruses known to man are obligate parasites.
    (b) Some viruses have cellular structure and are
    saprophytes.
    (c) Viruses are filterable facultative parasites.
    (d) Viruses are capable of performing metabolic activities
    on their own.
    14. Fungi can be distinguished from algae on the basis of
    (a) cellulosic cell wall and heterotrophic nature
    (b) chitinous cell wall and lacking chloroplast
    (c) heterotrophic food habit and chloroplast presence
    (d) none of the above.
    15. Bryophytes comprise of
    (a) dominant phase of gametophyte which produces
    spores
    (b) small sporophyte phase and generally parasitic on
    gametophyte
    (c) sporophyte is of longer duration
    (d) dominant phase of sporophyte which is parasitic.
    True or False

  3. Classification based on evolutionary relationships of
    organisms is called phylogenetic system of classification.

  4. An inert virus can be crystallised and stored indefinitely.

  5. The viral genome gets integrated with host DNA in lytic
    phase of reproductive cycle of virulent phages.

  6. The outer membrane of bacterial cell has hydrophilic
    channels of b-barrel proteins called porins.

  7. Bacteria perform anoxygenic photosynthesis whereas
    cyanobacteria perform oxygenic photosynthesis.

  8. Zygote is the only diploid structure in organisms having life
    cycle with gametic meiosis.

  9. Euglenoids store their carbohydrates as paramylon,
    scattered throughout the cytoplasm.

  10. The brown colour of brown algae is due to the presence of
    large amount of fucoxanthin.

  11. In several cases, fungal hyphae get closely packed and
    lose their individuality to form a compact tissue called
    pseudoparenchyma.

  12. Deuteromycetes are also called imperfect fungi because
    they show autrotophic mode of nutrition.
