Read the following and answer any four questions from (i) to (v) given below:
According to Mendel, one gene control the expression of one character only. The ability of a gene to have multiple phenotypic effect because it influences a number of characters is an exception. The gene having a multiple phenotypic effect because of its ability to control of two or more characters can be seen in cotton. In cotton, a gene for the lint also influences the height of plant, size of the ball, number of ovules and viability of seeds.

Read the following and answer any four questions from (i) to (v) given below:DNA replication is a complex multistep process that requires enzymes, protein factors and metal ions. DNA replication in eukaryotes occurs in the nucleus during the S-phase of the cell cycle. It is semidiscontinuous in eukaryotes. in prokaryotes, replication takes place in the cytoplasm. DNA replication in bacteria occurs prior to fission. Nucleoid or viral chromosome is a single molecule of nucleic acid, it may be linear of circular. Nucleic acid in a virus is either DNA or RNA but never both.

Read the following and answer any four questions from (i) to (v) given below:
Alcohols are important industrial solvents. Ethanol, methanol, propanol and butanol are produced commercially by fermentation activity of some fungi, majorly yeasts. During fermentation, yeast cells convert cereal derived sugars into ethanol and $CO_2$ At the same time hundreds of secondary metabolites that influence the aroma and taste of alcohol are produced. Sugar concentration affects the rate of fermentation reactions. Yeast cannot grow in very strong sugar solution. In case of complex carbohydrate containing nutrient media, 1% malt or Rhizopus is used along with yeasts. Hydrolysis of starch is carried out at high temperature for 30 ruins. 'Tile crushed food mixed with hot water for obtaining malt in called mash. 'Tile nutrient medium prior to fermentation in called wort. Wort is cooled down to appropriate temperature and inoculated with strain of yeast.
  1. Tile rate of alcohol production is measured on the basis of:
  1. Amount of sugar present in the medium.
  2. Amount of $CO_2$ produced per unit time.
  3. Amount of yeast added in the medium.
  4. All of these.
  1. A number of chemicals are produced at the time of alcoholic fermentation with the change of nutrient media, pH and aeration. Select such by-product from the following.
  1. Phenylethanol.
  2. Amyl alcohol.
  3. Glycerol.
  4. All of these.
  1. During alcoholic fermentation of cereals and potato, the crushed food mixed with hot water for obtaining malt is called:
  1. Juice.
  2. Mash.
  3. Wort.
  4. None of these.
  1. Distilled alcohol with 95% ethanol content is called:
  1. Absolute alcohol.
  2. Rectified spirit.
  3. Gin.
  4. Brandy.
  1. Assertion: Rhizopus or 1% malt is used in the nutrient medium when it contains complex carbohydrates.
Reason: Yeast does not possess sufficient diastase or amylase.
  1. Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
  2. Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
  3. Assertion is true but reason is false.
