3 Animal Kingdom
Identify the correct set of mammals that live wholly in water.
1) Whales,seals,dolphins
2) Seals,whales,shark
3) Hippocampus, whale, scoliodon
4) Rohu,shark,catla
Solution
In aquatic mammals, whales, seals and dolphins live completely in water.
Sharks, rohu, catla are not mammals.
So, the correct option is 'Whales, seals and dolphins'.
4 Principles of Inheritance and Variation
In fruit flies with the curly wing mutation, the wings will be straight if the flies are kept at 16 degrees Celsius. The most probable explanation for this is that
1) fruit flies with curly wings cannot survive at high temperatures 2) the environment influences wing phenotype in these fruit flies 3) height temperatures increases the rate of mutations 4) wing length in these fruit flies is directly proportional to temperature
The environment influences the expression of many genes. For example, identical twins, with identical DNA, may look different from each other because of the different environmental influences.

Meiosis in Spirogyra occurs in 1. Zygote 2. Zygospore 3. Germling 4. Main body
The united protoplasmic mass of two gametes is called zygote or zygospore. Prior to germination, the diploid zygospore nucleus undergoes meosis and forms four nuclei. Three of the four nuclei degenerate since they are smaller in size, The last cell is bigger and grows using the reserve food substances.
