The structure that produces antibodies is: MCQ with Answer and Explanation

The structure that produces antibodies is:
A. Neutrophil
B. Macrophage
C. Plasma cell (B cell)
D. T lymphocyte
Answer: Option C
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Plasma cells, differentiated from B lymphocytes, are the factories that produce and secrete large amounts of antibodies (immunoglobulins) specific to an antigen. Macrophages phagocytose, T cells regulate or directly kill, neutrophils phagocytose bacteria.

Question #1
In a cross between a homozygous dominant plant (TT) and a heterozygous plant (Tt), what proportion of the offspring will show the recessive phenotype?
A. 50%
B. 0%
C. 100%
D. 25%

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Cross: TT × Tt. Gametes: T (from TT) and T or t (from Tt). Offspring genotypes: TT and Tt. Both express the dominant phenotype because the recessive allele t is masked by T. No tt offspring are produced, so 0% show the recessive trait.

Question #2
The process of obtaining a large number of identical copies of a gene or organism is:
A. Transformation
B. Cloning
C. Hybridization
D. Mutation

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Cloning produces genetically identical copies of a DNA fragment (molecular cloning) or an entire organism (reproductive cloning). Hybridization is crossing different varieties, mutation is change in DNA, transformation is DNA uptake.

Question #3
The vascular bundles in monocot stems are:
A. Radial
B. Scattered and closed
C. Arranged in a ring
D. Open and collateral

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Monocot stems have numerous vascular bundles scattered in the ground tissue. They are closed (lack cambium), collateral, and hence do not undergo secondary growth. Dicot stems have vascular bundles arranged in a ring, open (with cambium) allowing secondary growth. Radial vascular bundles are characteristic of roots. Scattered bundles are a key identifying feature of monocots.
