- Question
Which of the following is part of the axial skeleton?
Options- A. Thigh bone
- B. Shoulder bones
- C. Vertebral column
- D. Foot bones
- Correct Answer
- Vertebral column
ExplanationThe 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.

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: energy is stored in chemical bonds is released during cellular respiration
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: prostate
Correct Answer: Sac formation
Explanation:
Ascomycota 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: TRUE
Correct Answer: synthesis of DNA from an RNA template
Explanation:
A reverse transcriptase (RT) is an enzyme used to generate complementary DNA (cDNA) from an RNA template by a process called Reverse Transcription.
In brief its function is that copies all or part of the virus RNA (retroviruses are RNA-only) as DNA which can then be integrated into the DNA of the host organism.
Correct Answer: Mitochondria
Explanation:
Cellular respiration is the multi-step process that creates energy from nutrients and food molecules. It begins in the cytoplasm of the cell, with the mitochondria functioning as the main organelle where the rest of the process continues and finishes.
During respiration, glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell.
Correct Answer: FALSE
Explanation:
DNA is made of nucleotides. And these Nucleotides are made of a pentose sugar deoxyribose, a phosphate, and a nitrogen-containing bases.
Hence, the given statement 'Nucleotides are made of a pentose only' is FALSE.
Correct Answer: transcription
Explanation:
Protein synthesis at the ribosome is immediately preceeded by the transcription process.
