Which of the following is a saturated fatty acid? MCQ with Answer and Explanation

Explanation:
Gibberellins stimulate seed germination by activating synthesis of hydrolytic enzymes (amylase) that break down stored food reserves. They also promote stem elongation. Abscisic acid inhibits germination and promotes dormancy. Ethylene is for ripening, cytokinins for cell division. The GA:ABA ratio determines germination vs dormancy.

Explanation:
The tundra biome, found in Arctic and Antarctic regions, has permanently frozen subsoil (permafrost), extremely low temperatures, short growing seasons, and vegetation limited to mosses, lichens, grasses, and dwarf shrubs. Taiga is the boreal coniferous forest, savanna is tropical grassland, temperate deciduous forest has distinct seasons. Tundra is the coldest biome.

Explanation:
Parietal (oxyntic) cells in the gastric glands of the stomach secrete hydrochloric acid (HCl), which activates pepsinogen to pepsin, kills bacteria, and provides an acidic pH (1.5-2.0) for protein digestion. Liver produces bile, pancreas secretes digestive enzymes and bicarbonate, goblet cells secrete mucus. Intrinsic factor, required for vitamin B₁₂ absorption, is also secreted by parietal cells.
