Thank you

Explanation / Answer

1. The answer is option C

Firstly protein is synthesized by ribosomes.

Then it is translocated into the ER lumen.

Then folding and glycosylation takes place in ER.

Now protein is transferred to golgi.

There is is further modified.

Now protein is exported from golgi to secretory vesicles.

Finally secretory vesicle is fused with plasma membrane and the protein is secreted.

2. The answer is option-C

Phospholipids are amphiphiic. Phospholipid head is hydrophilic and tail portion is hydrophobic. So it is amphiphiic molecule.

3. The answer is- A

In absence of oxygen fermentation takes place. Pyruvate produced from glycolysis is metabolised in fermentation.

4. The answer is- B

In aerobic respiration carbohydrates finally generates CO2.

5. In this question all the options about meiosis is correct. All 4 options are correct.

6. The answer is B- microtubules

7. The answer is D -all of the above

8. The answer is option -D

9. The answer is option- D -all the above

10. The answer is option- D.
