Consider the following statements about antibodies:
1. They are produced by T-lymphocytes.
2. They are also called immunoglobulins.
3. They specifically bind to antigens.
Which of the above is/are correct?
A. 2 and 3 only
B. 1, 2, and 3
C. 1 and 3 only
D. 1 and 2 only
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Antibodies are produced by B-lymphocytes (plasma cells), not T-cells. They are immunoglobulins that bind specific antigens. Thus, 2 and 3 are correct.

Question #1
Consider statements about cell biology: 1. The cell membrane is selectively permeable. 2. The nucleus contains genetic material. 3. Mitochondria are the site of photosynthesis. Which are correct?
A. 1, 2 and 3
B. 1 and 3 only
C. 1 and 2 only
D. 2 and 3 only

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
The cell membrane (plasma membrane) is selectively permeable, regulating the passage of substances in and out of the cell to maintain internal homeostasis. The nucleus is the membrane-bound organelle that houses the cell's genetic material (DNA) organized into chromosomes, directing cellular activities. Mitochondria are the site of aerobic cellular respiration and ATP production; chloroplasts are the organelles where photosynthesis occurs in plant cells. Thus, statements 1 and 2 are correct.
