A.
22.4
B.
2.24
C.
20.16
D.
2.016

Solution:

Limestone (CaCO₃) has a molar mass of = 100 g/mol
So, 10 gm of 100% pure CaCO₃ would = 10 gm of CaCO₃
90% pure CaCO₃ means, each 10 gm of sample will have, = x 10 = 9 gm CaCO₃
So, number of moles of CaCO₃ = given mass/ molar mass = = 0.09
Now, we have the reaction,
CaCO₃ → CaO + CO₂
When 1 mole of CaCO₃ yields 1 moles of CO₂
0.09 moles of CaCO₃ will yield 0.09 moles of CO₂
1 mole of CO₂ = 22.4 liters (at STP)
So, total volume = 22.4 x 0.09 = 2.016 liters

Read the statements carefully, and mark the correct answer.
Assertion(A): When the ambient temperature is high and soil contains excess of water, the plants tend to lose water in the form of droplets from lenticels.
Reason(R): Root pressure regulates the rate of loss of water form lenticels.

A.
Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
B.
Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
C.
Assertion is true but reason is false.
D.
Both assertion and reason are false.

Solution:

When the ambient temperature is high and soil contains excess water, the rate of transpiration is increased i.e. loss of water takes place from leaves through stomata.
Lenticular transpiration is only 0.1% of the total transpiration. It however continues day and night because lenticels have no mechanism of closure. The lenticels connect the atmospheric air with the cortical tissue of stem through intercellular spaces present amongst the complementary cells. Root pressure regulates the rate of loss of water from the stomata in some plants.

In the following question, a statement of Assertion(A) is given followed by a corresponding statement of Reason(R).
Read the statements carefully, and mark the correct answer.
Assertion(A): In the descending limb of loop of Henle, the urnie is hypertonic, while in ascending limb of loops of Henle, the urine is hypotonic.
Reason(R): Descending limb is impermeable to Na⁺, while ascending limb is impermeable to H₂O.

A.
Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
B.
Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
C.
Assertion is true but reason is false.
D.
Both assertion and reason are false.

Solution:

The loop of Henle, also called the nephron loop, is a U-shaped tube that extends from the proximal tubule. It consists of a descending limb and ascending limb.The descending limb is permeable to water and noticeably less impermeable to salt, and thus only indirectly contributes to the concentration of the interstitium. As the filtrate descends deeper into the hypertonic interstitium of the renal medulla, water flows freely out of the descending limb by osmosis until the tonicity of the filtrate and interstitium equilibrate. Longer descending limbs allow more time for water to flow out of the filtrate, so longer limbs make the filtrate more hypertonic than shorter limbs.Unlike the descending limb, the ascending limb of Henle's loop is impermeable to water, a critical feature of the countercurrent exchange mechanism employed by the loop. The ascending limb actively pumps sodium out of the filtrate, generating the hypertonic interstitium that drives countercurrent exchange. In passing through the ascending limb, the filtrate grows hypotonic since it has lost much of its sodium content. This hypotonic filtrate is passed to the distal convoluted tubule in the renal cortex.

QUESTION: 132

In the following question, a statement of Assertion(A) is given followed by a corresponding statement of Reason(R).
Read the statements carefully, and mark the correct answer.
Assertion(A): Haemophilia is a recessive sex linked disease.
Reason(R): Haemophilia occurs due to mutation of a structural gene on chromosome 15.

A.
Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
B.
Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
C.
Assertion is true but reason is false.
D.
Both assertion and reason are false.

Solution:

Haemophilia (also known as bleeder disease) is a popular example of sex linked inheritance in human beings. Haemophilia is either of two hereditary disorders in which the blood clots very slowly, due to a deficiency of either of two coagulation factors - haemophilia A, due to deficiency of factor VIII (antihaemophilic factor); or haemophilia B, due to deficiency of factor IX (Christmas factor). The patient may experience prolonged bleeding following any injury or wound, and in severe cases there is spontaneous bleeding into muscles and joints. Haemophilia is controlled by a sex-linked gene, which means that it is almost exclusively restricted to males; women can carry the disease - and pass it on to their sons - without being affected themselves. The genes encoding factors VIII and IX have been used in gene therapy trials for haemophilia.
Mutation of a structural gene on chromosome 15 is the molecular basis of Marfan syndrome. This disease is due to dominant mutation resulting in the production of abnormal form of connective tissues and characteristic extreme looseness of joints.

Solution:

DDT or dichloro-diphenyl trichloroethane was the first important synthetic pesticide discovered in 1939 by a Swiss chemist Paul Muller. It was toxic to wide range of insect pests yet appeared to have low toxicity to mammals. It was persistent which means it do not break down rapidly in the environment, so that it did not have to be reapplied often. DDT was so effective at killing pests and thus boosting crops yield and was so inexpensive to make that its use quickly spread over the globe. Farmers used more and more DDT throughout the 1950 and 1960 to get an increased yield of crop.

Read the statements carefully, and mark the correct answer.
Assertion(A): Diabetes insipidus is marked by excessive urination and too much thirst of water.
Reason(R): Anti-diuretic hormone (ADH) is secreted by the posterior lobe of pituitary gland.

A.

B.
Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
C.
Assertion is true but reason is false.
D.
Both assertion and reason are false.

Solution:

Anti-diuretic hormone (ADH) or vasopressin is a peptide hormone, synthesized in the hypothalamus and released by the posterior pituitary gland, that stimulates capillary muscles and reduces the flow of urine and increases its concentration. It is released in response to a fall in the water content of blood plasma and lead to an increase in the permeability to water of the distal and collecting tubules of the nephron. Deficiency or hyposecretion of ADH results in diabetes insipidus.
Diabetes insipidus is characterized by micturating dilute urine several times a dday which results in excessive thirst and dehydration.

The region termed rhizosphere where it seems to survive by using nutrints from the root tissues. It infects only through the wound-site either naturally occuring or caused by transplanting of seeding and nursery stock.
It transfers DNA into plant genomes found in soil worldwide.Agrobacterium tumefaciens causes crown gall disease of a wide range of dicot plants especially members of rose family by transferring its own DNA into plant cells.But in laboratory, the ability to move all sorts of genes into plants has made the microbe the standard tool for investigating plant genetics and modifying crops.
