Question #1
Assertion (A): The cell wall of plants is freely permeable.
Reason (R): It allows water and dissolved substances to pass through.
A. A false, R true.
B. Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation.
C. Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation.
D. A true, R false.

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
The cell wall is porous and does not regulate entry; the plasma membrane is selectively permeable. Thus, the wall is freely permeable, and the reason explains it.

Question #2
Which of the following diseases is caused by the bacterium Clostridium tetani?
A. Diphtheria
B. Botulism
C. Tetanus
D. Pertussis (whooping cough)

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Tetanus (lockjaw) is caused by the neurotoxin of Clostridium tetani, a soil bacterium that enters through wounds. The toxin causes muscle spasms and rigidity. Diphtheria is by Corynebacterium diphtheriae, pertussis by Bordetella pertussis, botulism by Clostridium botulinum (also a neurotoxin, but from food poisoning). Vaccination with DPT/tetanus toxoid prevents tetanus.

Question #3
The process of spermatogenesis in the male testes is stimulated by:
A. Estrogen
B. Oxytocin
C. Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)
D. Prolactin

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
FSH, released from the anterior pituitary, stimulates Sertoli cells in the seminiferous tubules to support spermatogenesis (production of sperm). Luteinizing hormone (LH) stimulates Leydig cells to produce testosterone, which is also necessary for spermatogenesis. Estrogen is female hormone, prolactin for milk, oxytocin for uterine contraction.
