Question #1
Which of the following is a warm-blooded animal?
A. Fish
B. Crow
C. Frog
D. Snake

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Birds and mammals are endothermic (warm-blooded), maintaining a constant internal body temperature regardless of the environment. Crow is a bird, hence warm-blooded. Fish, frog (amphibian), and snake (reptile) are ectothermic (cold-blooded), their body temperature varies with the environment. Endothermy requires high metabolic rate and insulation (feathers, fur).

Question #2
The technique of producing genetically identical individuals from a single cell is:
A. Hybridization
B. Mutation breeding
C. Cross breeding
D. Cloning

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Cloning produces genetically identical copies of an organism or cell. In animals, somatic cell nuclear transfer (like Dolly the sheep) is used. Plant cloning occurs via vegetative propagation or tissue culture. Hybridization combines different genomes; mutation breeding induces mutations; cross breeding involves mating. Cloning has applications in therapeutics, conservation, and agriculture.

Night blindness is caused by the deficiency of which vitamin?
A. Vitamin A
B. Vitamin B1
C. Vitamin D
D. Vitamin C

Correct Answer: Option A

Vitamin A (Retinol) is essential for the formation of rhodopsin (visual purple), a pigment in the rod cells of the retina necessary for vision in low light conditions. Deficiency of Vitamin A leads to night blindness (nyctalopia), where a person has difficulty seeing in dim light. Severe deficiency can also cause xerophthalmia and complete blindness.
