All living organisms are linked to one another because
1. They have common genetic material of the same type
2. They share common genetic material but to varying degrees
3. All have common cellular organization
4. All of the above
Growth and reproduction are:
1. characteristics of cells and living things
2. defining properties of cells and living things
3. characteristics of cells but not of living things
4. defining properties of cells but not of living things
The process of classification of living organisms into different taxa is called as:
1. Identification | 2. Nomenclature |
3. Taxonomy | 4. Characterization |
The correct name of mango would be:
1. | Mangifera Indica | 2. | mangifera indica |
3. | Mangifera indica | 4. | Mangifera indica |
The Indian Botanical Garden and the National Botanical Research Institute are located respectively at:
1. Pune and Howrah | 2. Howrah and Lucknow |
3. Darjeeling and Lucknow | 4. Simla and Dehradun |
Consider the following statements:
I. Unicellular organisms grow by cell division.
II. Growth in all multicellular organisms by cell division occurs only up to a certain age.
III. Non-living objects do not exhibit growth
The incorrect statement/s is/are:
1. I only | 2. III only |
3. II only | 4. II and III only |
Which of the following are the defining properties of life?
1. Growth and Reproduction
2. Cellular organization and Consciousness
3. Growth and Consciousnes
4. Cellular organization and Reproduction
Identify the incorrect statement regarding the rules of Binomial Nomenclature?
1. The names are derived from Latin or Latinized.
2. The first word in a biological name represents the genus while the second component denotes the specific epithet.
3. Both the words in a biological name, when handwritten, are written in italics, or printed separately underlined to indicate their Latin origin.
4. The first word denoting the genus starts with a capital letter while the specific epithet starts with a small letter.
Perhaps the most obvious and technically complicated feature of all living organisms is:
1. Capability to reproduce to produce similar offspring
2. Ability to grow from inside
3. Ability to sense and respond to environmental stimuli
4. Metabolism inside a defined boundary of a cell
In plant taxonomy, the most inclusive category will be:
1. | Kingdom | 2. | Division |
3. | Class | 4. | Order |
