Q1.

Water breathing is more problematic than air breathing because :

i. water is 800 times more dense and hence holds much more oxygen than air does.
ii. since oxygen dissolved in water diffuses far more slowly than air therefore large quantity of water is required to be passed over the gills.


Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

Water breathing is more problematic than air breathing because oxygen dissolved in water diffuses far more slowly than air therefore large quantity of water is required to be passed over the gills.

Q5. In the human heart :

i. The valve between right atrium and right ventricle is tricuspid while valve between left atrium and left ventricle is mitral valve.
ii. Openings of the right and the left ventricles into the pulmonary artery and the aorta are guarded by semilunar valves.
iii. ‘Lub’ the first sound which is low pitched is caused by the closure of semilunar valves while ‘Dub’ the second sound which is high pitched is caused by the closure of bicuspid and tricuspid valves.
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

The first heart sound (lub) is associated with the closure of the tricuspid and bicuspid valves whereas the second heart sound (dub) is associated with the closure of the semilunar valves.

Q6. The complex V is also known as
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

complex V or ATP synthase can be separated into 2 parts:

Fo - the portion embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane and

F1-ATPase — the portion projecting into the matrix of the mitochondrion. This

 is why the intact ATP synthase is also called the FoF1-ATPase.
