Biology MCQs

Notes:
Seed Therapy which is based on Sujok Therapy deals with the application of seeds or other parts of plants and attaching it with a tape at a corresponding point in the hand or foot of a person feeling pain. This is used now-a-days for cancer treatment.

Notes:
Enteric fermentation is a digestive process that takes place in the digestive systems of ruminant animals by which carbohydrates are broken down by microorganisms into simple molecules for absorption into the bloodstream of an animal.

Notes:
RSV Virus (respiratory syncytial virus) is also called as “Hit & Hide” virus. It causes infections of the lungs and respiratory tract. It is a major cause of lower respiratory tract infections.

Notes:
Glycogen is stored mainly in liver and muscles. It is a multibranched polysaccharide of glucose. It serves as a form of energy storage in animals, fungi, and bacteria.

Notes:
The Red color of Red wine is mainly because of pigments such as anthocyanin. Anthocyanin is present in many fruits like plums, blueberries, and cherries.

Notes:
Running up stairs requires the same work but in less time, increasing power output. Higher power leads to more rapid energy use, causing greater fatigue. Work (energy) is force times distance, but power is work divided by time, which is higher when running.

Notes:
Leukemia, a type of cancer found in your blood and bone marrow. It is caused by the rapid production of abnormal white blood cells. The high number of abnormal white blood cells are not able to fight infection, and they impair the ability of the bone marrow to produce red blood cells and platelets.

Notes:
Rhizobium is a kind of symbiotic bacteria. Many legumes have root nodules that provide a home for symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria called rhizobia. This relationship is particularly common in nitrogen-limited conditions. The Rhizobia convert nitrogen gas from the atmosphere into ammonia.

Notes:
Keratin is a group of fibrous proteins occurring in hair, feathers, hooves, and horns. Keratins have coiled polypeptide chains that combine to form supercoils of several polypeptides linked by disulphide bonds between adjacent cysteine amino acids.

Notes:
Chlorophylla-a is the primary pigment for photosynthesis in plants. Chlorophyll a is a specific form of chlorophyll used in oxygenic photosynthesis. It absorbs most energy from wavelengths of violet-blue and orange-red light.
