APPS QUESTION & ANSWER
A. The Diameter of an animal cell is around?
⇨ 0.001 to 0.003
B. Which of the following layers of atmosphere is closest to space?
⇨ Thermosphere
C. Which of the following is not a part of the eukaryotic cell?
⇨ The bacteria
Side Note: (Eukaryotic cell has 3 parts – The cell membrane, cytoplasm and the nucleus).
D. What are subatomic particles, found inside an atom’s nucleus?
⇨ Proton and Neutrons
E. What are the 4 basic types of tissue?
⇨ Epithelial, Nervous, Connective, and Muscle.
F. The hardest form of carbon is what?
⇨ Diamond
G. What is the most likely effect if a catalyst is added to a chemical reaction?
⇨ The rate at which the reaction takes place increase.
H. Which of the following are the major homeostatic functions of liver?
⇨ Blood clotting and maintenance of osmotic balance of blood, emulsifies fats in the small intestines, Energy storage and use, Supports kidney in waste disposal.
I. Mesosomes are basically the internal extensions of the:
⇨ Cell Membranes
Side Note: (The invagination of a cell membrane into the cytoplasm results in the formation of mesosomes. Mesosomews can be in the form of vesicles, tubules or lamellae).
• Various functions of mesosomes are:
➔ DNA replication
➔ Cell Division
➔ Export of extracellular enzymes
➔ Respiratory enzymes are also present in mesosomes.
(The cell wall and capsule are the component of the outer wrapping of the bacteria known as the cell envelope. Cell envelope is the name given to the complexes of layers external to the cell protoplasm).
j) The cytoplasmic organelle containing fluid filled tubules for carrying and transporting substance is known as
⇨ Endoplasmic reticulum
k) Membrane Transport – The movement of substance in and out of the cell is carried out through:
⇨ Both active transport and passive transport.
l) Cytokinesis is:
⇨ The division of the cytoplasm.
M) The ultimate end product of glucose breakdown in glycolysis is?
⇨ Pyruvic acid
Side Note: (The end product of glucose breakdown in glycolysis is pyruvic acid. Glycolysis is the breakdown of glucose up to the formation of pyruvic acid).
N) An increase in the number of cells, size of cells, tissues, organs, and the
body resulting in a single cell becoming a multi cellular complex organism is known as:
⇨ Metabolism
Side Note: (Metabolism is the set of life – sustaining chemical transformations within the cells of living organisms. These enzymes – catalyzed reaction allow organisms to grow and reproduce, maintain their structures, and respond to their environments).
O) The protection of the internal environment from the harms of fluctuations
in the external environment is termed as:
⇨ Homeostasis
(The protection of the internal environment from the harm of fluctuations in the external environment is termed as homeostasis. It keeps the internal fluctuations within a narrow range. Hemostasis is a process which causes bleeding to stop and is considered the first step towards wound healing. The process of regulating the gain and loss of water is termed as osmoregulation).
P) The majority of energy for most organisms comes from which molecules?
⇨ ATP (Explanation: ATP is the primary energy molecules for most Organisms. It is usually obtained through the breaking of bonds from foods like carbohydrate.)
Q) What does one need to do in order to balance the reaction Ca,2 + Cl,2 ->
CaCl,2?
⇨ Place a coefficient of 2 before the Cl in the reactants and before the CaCl,2 in the products.
R) When an acid is in water, how is it different than a base?
⇨ Acids from hydrogen ions (H+) and bases form hydroxide ions (OH-).
S) What does the pH scale measure?
⇨ The concentration of hydrogen ions.
T) Which is a substance that has the ability to speed up a chemical reaction?
⇨ A catalyst (Explanation: A catalyst is any substance that can
speed up a chemical reaction without changing the reactants in any way. Catalyst lowers the activation energy and allows the reaction to proceed more quickly).
U) If an atom is oxidized in a redox reaction, what must happen to the other
one in the reaction? [Show Less]
