Question #1
Identify the correct statement about mutations:
A. Mutations cannot be spontaneous.
B. All mutations are caused by radiation.
C. Mutations can be inherited if they occur in germ cells.
D. Silent mutations always change the protein sequence.

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Germline mutations can be passed to offspring. Mutations can be spontaneous or induced; silent mutations do not change the amino acid sequence.

Question #2
Consider statements about human immunity: 1. Skin is a physical barrier. 2. Phagocytosis is a specific immune response. 3. Memory cells provide long-term immunity. Which are correct?
A. 1 and 2 only
B. 1, 2 and 3
C. 1 and 3 only
D. 2 and 3 only

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
The skin and mucous membranes act as primary physical barriers in innate immunity, preventing pathogen entry. Phagocytosis by macrophages and neutrophils is a non-specific (innate) cellular defense mechanism, not a specific immune response. Memory B and T cells are produced during the primary specific immune response and provide rapid, long-lasting immunity upon re-exposure. Thus, statements 1 and 3 are correct.

Question #3
Which of the following is NOT a nitrogenous base found in DNA?
A. Thymine
B. Uracil
C. Adenine
D. Guanine

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
DNA contains adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine. RNA contains uracil instead of thymine. This is one of the key differences between DNA and RNA. Uracil pairs with adenine in RNA. The base pairing in DNA is A-T and G-C. In RNA, it is A-U and G-C. Uracil lacks the methyl group present in thymine.
