- Question
Which of the following is a characteristic of the Ascomycota?
Options- A. Sac formation
- B. Zygospore formation
- C. Basidium formation
- D. All of the above
- Correct Answer
- Sac formation
ExplanationAscomycota is a division or phylum of the kingdom Fungi that, together with the Basidiomycota, form the subkingdom Dikarya. Its members are commonly known as the sac fungi or ascomycetes.
Hence, Sac formation is a characteristic of the Ascomycota fungi.

Correct Answer: It is about 90% water.
Explanation:
The first option is incorrect because it is devoid of blood cell, also red blood cells so doesn?t contains haemoglobin.
The second option is incorrect because plasma is colorless.
The third option is also incorrect because plasma contains the clotting factors.
Correct Answer: Protects lungs
Explanation:
When you breathe in air through your nose, it contains lots of tiny things, like dust, dirt, germs, and pollen.
The air enters our body through the nose. However, before it enters the lungs, it must be heated and purified. Many dust particles that enter along with the air are removed in the nose by mucus and thus it protects lungs.
Correct Answer: Veins have valves; arteries do not.
Explanation:
Veins are blood vessels that carry blood toward the heart. Most veins carry deoxygenated blood from the tissues back to the heart; exceptions are the pulmonary and umbilical veins, both of which carry oxygenated blood to the heart. In contrast to veins, arteries carry blood away from the heart.
Veins are less muscular than arteries and are often closer to the skin. There are valves in most veins to prevent backflow.
Correct Answer: the fittest organisms survive and reproduce
Explanation:
Natural selection is the differential survival and reproduction of individuals due to differences in phenotype. It is a key mechanism of evolution, the change in the heritable traits characteristic of a population over generations.
Correct Answer: production of ATP from the breakdown of glucose
Explanation:
The three steps within the aerobic respiration process are glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.
Photosynthesis builds glucose, and what was built in photosynthesis is broken down during aerobic respiration.
Hence, production of ATP from the breakdown of glucose is the main result of aerobic respiration.
Correct Answer: prostate
Correct Answer: In the adult heart, blood in the right chambers of the heart cannot enter the left chambers without passing through the lungs.
Explanation:
In the adult heart, blood in the right chambers of the heart cannot enter the left chambers without passing through the lungs is correct regarding mammalian heart.
Correct Answer: energy is stored in chemical bonds is released during cellular respiration
Correct Answer: pleura
Explanation:
The pleura is the membrane that covers the lungs, according to InnerBody. The pleura consists of two layers, with the parietal pleura forming the membrane's outer layer and the visceral pleura forming the membrane's inner layer.
Correct Answer: Vertebral column
Explanation:
The axial skeleton is the part of the skeleton that consists of the bones of the head and trunk of a vertebrate. In the human skeleton, it consists of 80 bones and is composed of six parts; the skull bones, the ossicles of the middle ear, the hyoid bone, the rib cage, sternum and the vertebral column.
Bones of shoulder, thigh and foot are the part of appendicular skeleton.
Hence, Vertebral column is the part of axial skeleton.
