In the human body, the 'Corpus callosum' is a large band of nerve fibers that connects the:
A. Brain and spinal cord
B. Cerebrum and cerebellum
C. Left and right cerebral hemispheres
D. Thalamus and hypothalamus

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
The corpus callosum is the largest white matter structure in the brain, consisting of over 200 million axons. It forms a broad, flat band located deep in the longitudinal fissure (the cleft between the two hemispheres). Its primary function is to serve as the main communication pathway, allowing the left and right cerebral hemispheres to share information, coordinate activities, and integrate sensory, motor, and cognitive functions.

The scientist who proposed the 'chemiosmotic hypothesis' for ATP synthesis was:
A. Melvin Calvin
B. Peter Mitchell
C. Hans Krebs
D. Fritz Lipmann

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Peter Mitchell proposed the chemiosmotic theory (1961), explaining that a proton gradient across a membrane drives ATP synthesis. Krebs discovered the citric acid cycle, Calvin the Calvin cycle, Lipmann discovered coenzyme A.

Question #3
Which of the following organelles is surrounded by a single membrane?
A. Mitochondria
B. Chloroplast
C. Lysosome
D. Nucleus

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Lysosomes are single-membrane-bound organelles containing hydrolytic enzymes. Mitochondria, chloroplasts, and the nucleus are double-membrane-bound. Peroxisomes, vacuoles, and the endoplasmic reticulum are also single-membrane structures. The single membrane of lysosomes helps maintain an acidic pH (5.0) for enzyme activity and protects the cell from autolysis.
