I. All are photosynthetic autotrophs.
II. All can directly fix atmospheric nitrogen.
1. | Only I | 2. | Only II |
3. | Both I and II | 4. | Neither I nor II |
Regarding viroids:
I: | They are small single-stranded, circular RNAs that are infectious pathogens. |
II: | The first recognized viroid was the Potato spindle tuber viroid, abbreviated PSTVd. |
1. Only I is correct
2. Only II is correct
3. Both I and II are correct
4. Both I and II are incorrect
The diagram shows the presence of a pathogen amongst RBCs in the peripheral blood smear of a patient. Even though the shape is very easy to identify, the structure highlighted in the circle should enable you to identify the pathogen easily. It is:
1. | Trypanosoma | 2. | Plasmodium |
3. | Schistosoma | 4. | Clonorchis |
Archaebacteria differ from other bacteria in having a different cell wall structure. Which of the following is/are true?
I. No archaebacteria have peptidoglycan in their cell wall but some can have pseudopeptidoglycan.
II. No bacteria have S-layer in their cell envelopes but some may have slimy glycocalyx.
1. | Only I | 2. | Only II |
3. | Both I and II | 4. | Neither I nor II |
The ‘photobiont’ [photosynthetic component] in a Lichen can be:
I. A green alga | II. A cyanobacterium |
1. | Only I | 2. | Only II |
3. | Both I and II | 4. | Neither I nor II |
