Question #1
Consider statements about the Golgi apparatus: 1. It has cis and trans faces. 2. It modifies and packages proteins. 3. It synthesizes ATP. Which are correct?
A. 2 and 3 only
B. 1 and 3 only
C. 1, 2 and 3
D. 1 and 2 only

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
The Golgi apparatus consists of flattened membranous sacs called cisternae. It has a forming cis face near the ER and a maturing trans face directed towards the plasma membrane. It primarily modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and lipids for secretion or delivery to other organelles. It does not synthesize ATP; that is the function of mitochondria.

Question #3
Which class of antibody is the most abundant in human blood plasma?
A. IgA
B. IgG
C. IgE
D. IgM

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is the most abundant antibody in human blood plasma, constituting about 75-80% of all antibodies. It is the only antibody that can cross the placenta, providing passive immunity to the fetus. IgG is crucial for long-term immunity, neutralizing toxins, viruses, and bacteria, and activating the complement system.
