Explanation / Answer

1. Option C is correct. 11 codons will be needed. 10 codon will code 10 amino acid and one extra codon which will act as stop codon. Stop codon does not code for any amino acid while starting codon also codes for an amino acid. Since one codon contains three nucleotides therefore total number of nucleotides will be 33. One exon may have more than one codon.

2. Option E is correct. CO2 react with water and form carbonic acid whic makes solution more acidic.

3. Option D is correct. Facilitated diffusion is passive process which occurs downhill to the concentration gradient through transmembrane protein. Since it is passive process, does not require energy.

4. Option A is correct. Glucose is converted into glycogen by the process of glycogenesis which is act as stored energy.

5. Option E is correct. Nucleus, mitochondria and golgiapparatus are double membrane bound organelles.

6. Option E is correct. During anaphase, sister chromosome separated towards opposite poles with the help of spindle fiber.

7. Option B is correct. Simple diffusion occurs due to concentration gradient. This does not require any transmembrane protein or any type of energy.
