Assertion (A): Frogs have a three-chambered heart. Reason (R): This allows complete separation of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood. MCQ with Answer and Explanation

Assertion (A): Frogs have a three-chambered heart.
Reason (R): This allows complete separation of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood.
A. Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation.
B. Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation.
C. A is false, but R is true.
D. A is true, but R is false.
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Amphibians have two atria and one ventricle; mixing of blood occurs because of the single ventricle. Complete separation is achieved only in four-chambered hearts. So A true, R false.

Question #1
The scientist who proposed the 'one gene-one enzyme' hypothesis using Neurospora crassa was:
A. Watson and Crick
B. Morgan
C. Mendel
D. Beadle and Tatum

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
George Beadle and Edward Tatum irradiated Neurospora crassa and showed that mutations in specific genes caused defects in specific enzymes, leading to the one gene-one enzyme concept. Watson and Crick discovered DNA structure, Mendel laws of inheritance, Morgan chromosome theory.

Question #2
Which of the following is the most abundant type of white blood cell (WBC) in human blood?
A. Monocytes
B. Neutrophils
C. Lymphocytes
D. Eosinophils

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Neutrophils are the most abundant white blood cells, constituting about 60-65% of the total WBC count. They are polymorphonuclear and are highly phagocytic, acting as the first line of defense against bacterial infections. Lymphocytes are the second most abundant (20-25%), while monocytes and eosinophils are present in smaller percentages.

Question #3
The movement of pollen grains from anther to stigma of the same flower is called:
A. Hydrophily
B. Self-pollination
C. Cross-pollination
D. Anemophily

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Self-pollination (autogamy) occurs within the same flower or between flowers of the same plant. Cross-pollination (allogamy) involves different plants. Hydrophily is pollination by water, anemophily by wind. Self-pollination ensures genetic uniformity, while cross-pollination promotes variation. Cleistogamous flowers (e.g., groundnut) are obligate self-pollinators.
