| I: | is an important site of formation of glycoproteins and glycolipids. |
| II: | is not a part of the endomembrane system of a eukaryotic cell. |
| Statement I: | The content of nucleolus is continuous with the rest of the nucleoplasm as it is not a membrane bound structure. |
| Statement II: | The outer nuclear membrane usually remains continuous with the endoplasmic reticulum but does not bear ribosomes on it. |
1. A| 1. | contains water, sap, excretory product and other materials not useful for the cell. |
| 2. | store enzymes capable of digesting carbohydrates, proteins, lipids and nucleic acids. |
| 3. | are formed by engulfing the food particles. |
| 4. | are important for osmoregulation and excretion. |
| Statement I: | Mature sieve tube elements of vascular plants and mature human erythrocytes are not considered as ‘living’ cells. |
| Statement II: | Mature sieve tube elements of vascular plants and mature human erythrocytes lack a nucleus. |
The arrangement of axonemal microtubules in cilia and flagellum is referred to as 9 + 2 array which essentially means that the axoneme has:
| 1. | nine doublets of radially arranged peripheral microtubules and two doublets of centrally located microtubules enclosed by a central sheath. |
| 2. | nine triplets of radially arranged peripheral microtubules and a pair of centrally located microtubules enclosed by a central sheath. |
| 3. | nine triplets of radially arranged peripheral microtubules and a centrally located protein hub not enclosed by a central sheath. |
| 4. | nine doublets of radially arranged peripheral microtubules and a pair of centrally located microtubules enclosed by a central sheath. |

| IV: | Theodor Schwann | was a British botanist |
1. Only I and II
2. Only I and III

4. Only III and IV
| I: | independent existence |
| II: | performing the essential functions of life |
| 1. | Extensive compartmentalisation of cytoplasm. |
| 2. | The presence of membrane bound organelles. |
