Question #1
Assertion (A): RNA is usually single-stranded.
Reason (R): RNA contains deoxyribose sugar.
A. A is false, but R is true.
B. A is true, but R is false.
C. Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation.
D. Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation.

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
RNA is typically single-stranded (A true), but it contains ribose, not deoxyribose. Deoxyribose is in DNA. Thus R is false.

Question #2
The molecule that carries the genetic code from the nucleus to the cytoplasm is:
A. tRNA
B. rRNA
C. mRNA
D. DNA

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Messenger RNA (mRNA) is transcribed from DNA in the nucleus and carries the codon sequence to ribosomes in the cytoplasm for translation into protein. tRNA brings amino acids, rRNA forms ribosomes, DNA stays in the nucleus. mRNA is the template for protein synthesis.

Question #3
Which of the following represents a correct food chain?
A. Frog → Grasshopper → Grass → Snake
B. Grass → Grasshopper → Frog → Snake
C. Grass → Frog → Grasshopper → Snake
D. Grasshopper → Grass → Frog → Snake

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
A food chain shows the flow of energy from producer to consumers. Grass (producer) → Grasshopper (primary consumer/herbivore) → Frog (secondary consumer/carnivore) → Snake (tertiary consumer). Arrows point in the direction of energy flow. Option A has incorrect order, C and D start with consumer. Typically, energy decreases at each trophic level. This illustrates the correct trophic sequence.
