Question #1
Consider statements about animal husbandry: 1. Artificial insemination improves cattle breeds. 2. Multiple Ovulation Embryo Transfer is used in poultry. 3. Crossbreeding combines traits of two breeds. Which are correct?
A. 1 and 2 only
B. 2 and 3 only
C. 1, 2 and 3
D. 1 and 3 only

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Artificial insemination allows the use of superior bull semen to improve cattle genetics widely. Multiple Ovulation Embryo Transfer (MOET) is a technique used in cattle and other mammals to increase herd improvement rates, not in poultry (which uses hatching eggs). Crossbreeding involves mating animals of different breeds to combine desirable traits and exploit hybrid vigor. Thus, statements 1 and 3 are correct.

Question #2
Which blood vessel carries blood from the heart to the lungs?
A. Pulmonary artery
B. Pulmonary vein
C. Superior vena cava
D. Aorta

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
The pulmonary artery (trunk) exits the right ventricle and carries deoxygenated blood to the lungs for oxygenation. The pulmonary veins return oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium. The aorta distributes oxygenated blood to the body, and the vena cava returns deoxygenated blood to the heart.

Question #3
Which of the following is a unique feature of plant cells compared to animal cells?
A. Presence of ribosomes
B. Presence of mitochondria
C. Presence of plastids
D. Presence of Golgi apparatus

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Plastids (chloroplasts, chromoplasts, leucoplasts) are unique to plant cells and some protists. They are involved in photosynthesis, storage, and imparting color. Mitochondria, Golgi apparatus, and ribosomes are present in both plant and animal cells. The cell wall and large central vacuole are also distinguishing features of plant cells.
