 amino acids

We KNOW that, proteins are polymers of amino acids. So, plants are ALSO USED to synthesise protein from amino acids. Hence, plants SYNTHESIS protein from amino acids in the presence of ATP by SPECIFIC synthetases.

 Arthropoda

Arthropod, (PHYLUM Arthropoda), any member of the phylum Arthropoda, the LARGEST phylum in the animal KINGDOM, which includes such familiar forms as LOBSTERS, crabs, spiders, mites, INSECTS, centipedes, and millipedes.

 R.B.Cs

The main job of red blood CELLS, or erythrocytes, is to CARRY oxygen from the LUNGS to the body tissues and carbon dioxide as a waste PRODUCT, AWAY from the tissues and back to the lungs. Hemoglobin (Hgb) is an important protein in the red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to all parts of our body.

 XYLEM

Tracheids (TOP) and vessel elements (bottom) are the WATER conducting cells of xylem tissue.

 FERTILIZATION

Fusion of TWO GAMETES is CALLED fertilization.

 DNA

The common features of prokaryotic and EUKARYOTIC CELLS are: DNA, the genetic MATERIAL contained in one or more chromosomes and LOCATED in a non membrane bound nucleoid region in prokaryotes and a membrane-bound nucleus in eukaryotes.

 Leaf and other CHLOROPLAST bearing parts

In PLANTS, the process of PHOTOSYNTHESIS takes PLACE in the mesophyll of the leaves, inside the chloroplasts. Chloroplasts contain disc-shaped structures called thylakoids, which contain the pigment chlorophyll.

 Excessive ENTRY of nutrient into water

In lakes, when there's a EXCESS entry of nutrients in water, the GROWTH of PLANT life takes PLACE. This phenomenon is called Eutrophication. Thus, the correct answer is (d).

 Wind

The POLLEN GRAINS of Pinus are carried to its FEMALE CONE through the wind.

 CAROLUS LINNAEUS

Carolus Linnaeus is CALLED the FATHER of TAXONOMY.

 Galileo

Galileo made MICROSCOPE and used it to observe very SMALL ANIMALS.

 ANCESTORS of MODERN MAN

Ramapithecus and Cro-Magnon man are CONSIDERED ancestors of modern man.

 LYSOSOMES

Any FOREIGN object that gains ENTRY into the cell is immediately ENGULFED by the lysosomes and is COMPLETELY broken into simple digestible pieces.

 Virus

Serious DISEASES LIKE polio and CHICKEN pox are CAUSED by viruses.

 Thigh

The FEMUR is one of the most researched bones in the HUMAN anatomy and forensic medicine. As the longest bone in the human BODY, it is well PRESERVED in skeletal remains.

 Holozoic

Amoeba TAKES its nutrition through a process called phagocytosis where the ENTIRE organism swallows the FOOD it plans on eating up. The mode through which an amoeba ENGULFS nutrition is known as holozoic nutrition.

 PROTISTA

Amoeba BELONGS to KINGDOM protista.

 Anus

The digestive system is made up of the ALIMENTARY canal (also CALLED the digestive tract) and other organs, such as the LIVER and pancreas. Alimentary canal RUNS from mouth to anus.

 melanocytes

A common cause of hyperpigmentation is an excess production of melanin. Melanin is a PIGMENT that gives skin its COLOR. It's produced by skin CELLS called melanocytes.

 Axon

Myelin is formed by Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and oligodendrocytes in the CENTRAL nervous system (CNS). Each Schwann cell forms a single myelin SHEATH around an axon.

 Platelets

The MAIN job of platelets, or thrombocytes, is blood clotting. Platelets are much SMALLER in size than the other blood cells. They GROUP TOGETHER to form clumps, or a PLUG, in the hole of a vessel to stop bleeding.

 8

Number of BONES FOUND in SKULL is 8.

 Nucleus

The PRIMARY DISTINCTION between these two types of ORGANISMS is that eukaryotic cells have a membrane-bound nucleus and prokaryotic cells do not. The nucleus is where EUKARYOTES store their genetic information.

 SPHYGMOMANOMETER

You can MEASURE your BLOOD PRESSURE on your own using a digital blood pressure MONITOR for automated readings or an instrument called a sphygmomanometer for manual readings.

 MITOCHONDRIA

The enzymatic REACTIONS of cellular RESPIRATION BEGIN in the cytoplasm, but most of the reactions occur in the mitochondria. Cellular respiration occurs in the double-membrane organelle called the mitochondrion. The folds in the inner membrane are called CRISTAE.

 Golgi bodies

Lysosomes originate by BUDDING off from the membrane of the trans-Golgi NETWORK, a region of the Golgi complex RESPONSIBLE for sorting NEWLY synthesized PROTEINS, which may be designated for use in lysosomes, endosomes, or the plasma membrane.

 Aqueous FERN

Azolla (mosquito fern, duckweed fern, fairy moss, water fern) is a genus of seven species of aquatic ferns in the FAMILY Salviniaceae. They are extremely reduced in FORM and specialized, looking nothing like other TYPICAL ferns but more resembling duckweed or some MOSSES.

 120 decibles

Noise is a level of SOUND beyond the capacity of ears. Normal level of sound for conversation is 60 decibels and lawn mower is 90 decibels that can not harm the ears but very high levels of noise (at or above 120 decibels) exposure can leads to hearing loss. Noise-induced hearing loss is irreversible, the main form of treatment is prevention.

 Their walls are only ONE cell thick

Capillaries are tiny blood vessels connecting arteries to VEINS. These blood vessels carry oxygen and NUTRIENTS to individual cells. Capillaries are the smallest blood vessels in the BODY, and have walls only one or two cells thick.

 Nucleus

Among the GIVEN EXAMPLE only nucleus is a CELL organelle and REST are not cell organelle therefore nucleus is the correct ANSWER.

 Mitosis

Mitosis is a process which CONVERTS a single-celled zygote into a great number of CELLS, which then DIFFERENTIATE into tissues.

 LYMPHOCYTES

Antibodies is PRODUCED in the PLASMA of BLOOD by lymphocytes.

 BIRDS

Ornithology, a BRANCH of ZOOLOGY DEALING with the STUDY of birds.

 SALIVARY glands

Ptyalin is PRODUCED by the salivary glands, WHEREAS PANCREATIC amylase is secreted by the PANCREAS into the small intestine.

 All living cells ARISE from pre-existing cells

The three PARTS of the cell theory are as FOLLOWS:
(1) All living THINGS are made up of cells,
(2) Cells are the smallest units (or most basic building BLOCKS) of life, and
(3) All cells come from pre-existing cells through the process of cell division.

 STEM

Potato is a MODIFIED FORM (OUTGROWTH) of stem.

 TENDON

Bones JOIN with MUSCLES with the HELP of tendon.

 Dawsonia

The TALLEST MOSS in the WORLD is Dawsonia.

 PAPAYA

Carica papaya is the SCIENTIFIC NAME of papaya.

 Small intestine

Most of the digestion of food takes place in the small intestine which is the longest PART of the GI TRACT. A MAJOR digestive organ is the stomach. WITHIN its mucosa are millions of embedded GASTRIC glands.

 Proteins

Proteins are nitrogenous foods. Nitrogenous foods as it is CLEAR from the name are those foods which are high in the quantity of nitrogen they POSSESS. Foods with nitrogen are the main ingredients when anyone TALKS about GOOD health.

 Sclerenchymatous CELLS

Sclerenchyma cells also provide support to the plant, but UNLIKE COLLENCHYMA cells, many of them are DEAD at MATURITY.

 All of these

Prokaryotic CELLS lack nucleolus, nuclear MEMBRANE and membrane BOUND by ORGANELLES.

 Casein

Casein and WHEY PROTEIN are the MAJOR PROTEINS of MILK.

 NUCLEUS

There are MANY DIFFERENCES between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell division. Bacteria have a SINGLE, circular DNA CHROMOSOME and no nucleus. Therefore, mitosis is not necessary in bacterial cell division.

 MITOTIC

Healing of wounds is dependent UPON the mitotic division of UNDERLYING CELLS.

 Minerals

Minerals is not FOUND in the COMPOSITION of PLASMA MEMBRANE.

 All of the above

Plant cells have certain DISTINGUISHING features, including CHLOROPLASTS, cell walls, and intracellular vacuoles. Photosynthesis TAKES place in chloroplasts; cell walls allow plants to have strong, upright structures; and vacuoles help regulate how cells handle WATER and storage of other molecules.

 NUCLEAR envelope and PLASTIDS

The prokaryotic CELL LACKS nuclear envelope and plastids.

 Erythrocytes

Red BLOOD cell, also called erythrocyte, cellular component of blood, millions of which in the CIRCULATION of vertebrates give the blood its characteristic colour and CARRY OXYGEN from the lungs to the tissues.
