Assertion A potentiometer is preferred over that of a voltmeter for measurement of emf of a cell Reason potentiometer does not draw any current from the cell.A. Both assertin and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertionB. Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertionC. Assertion is true but reason is flaseD. Both assertion and reason are false |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - A When a voltmeter is connected across the two terminals of a cell, it draws small curent from the cell, so it meausures terminal ptoential differecne between the two terminals of the cell whi8ch is lalways less than the emf of the cell on the other hand when a potnetiometer is uses for the measurement of emf of cell it doies not draw nay current from the cell Hence, it accurateluy measures the emf of cell. Thus a potentiometer is prefferred over a voltmeter. |

Describe the usefulness of water in bioshphere and biological systems. |
| Answer» Water is essential for all forms of life, it constitutes `65-70%` of the body weight of animals and plants. As compared to other liquids, water has high thermal conductivity, specific heat, dielectric constant, surface tension etc. These properties allow water to play a key role in bioshphere. Due to high dielectric constant, it acts as a good solvent and helps in transportation of minerals and other nutrients for plant and animal metabolism. Water is also required for photosyntheses in plants which releases `O_(2)` into the atmosphere. | |

Which of the following facilitates binding of positively charged amino acid residues?(a) Phosphatidyl choline (PC)(b) Phosphatidyl serine (PS)(c) Phosphatidyl ethanolamine (PE)(d) Phosphatidyl inositol(PI) |
|
Answer» Right option is (b) Phosphatidyl serine (PS) Easiest explanation: PS, concentrated in the inner leaflet of cell membrane, has a negative charge at physiologic pH and thus binds positively charged amino acid residues of lysine and arginine. The appearance of PS on the outer surface of aging lymphocytes marks the cells for destruction by macrophages. Appearance of PS on the outer surface of platelets can lead to blood coagulation. |
