Q. No.Three critical research areas of biotechnology are:
I. Providing the best catalyst in the form of improved organism usually a microbe or pure enzyme
II. Multiple Ovulation Transfer Technology (MOET)
III. Creating optimal conditions through engineering for a catalyst to act.
IV. Downstream processing technologies
1. I, II, III, IV
2. I, III, IV
3. I, II
4. II and IV
The application of biotechnology include
1. Therapeutics, processed food
2. Diagnostics, bioremediation
3. Genetically modified crops, energy production
4. All of these
Which of the following is not a critical research area of biotechnology
1. Providing a best catalyst in the form of improved organism usually microbe or pure enzyme
2. Creating optimal conditions through engineering for a catalyst to act
3. Downstream processing technologies to purify the protein or organic compound
4. Upstream processing of all the activated antibodies and plasminogens in plant body
Which of the following cannot be a mean of increasing food production?
1. Agro-chemical based agriculture
2. Organic agriculture and
3. Genetically engineered crop-based agriculture
4. Inorganic chemical engineering
To obtain a virus free plant, what can be used as an explant in micropropogation ?
| 1. | Apical meristem |
| 2. | Axillary meristem |
| 3. | Either apical or axillary meristem |
| 4. | Embryo |
Somaclones are obtained by
1. tissue culture
2. plant breeding
3. irradiation
4. genetic engineering
The increased crop production during green revolution in India was mainly due to:
| 1. | Improved crop varieties |
| 2. | Agrochemicals |
| 3. | better management practices |
| 4. | Both b and c. |
The Green revolution increased the food supply to
1. Triple fold
2. Double fold
3. Four fold
4. One and half fold
The partial reason of increased yield during green revolution was
| 1. | Use of improved crop varieties |
| 2. | Use of better management practices |
| 3. | Use of agro-chemicals |
| 4. | Use of fertilisers and pesticides |
Farmers of developing world cannot rely completely on agro-chemicals because
1. They are expensive
2. Don't know how to use
3. Are not trained to use them
4. Of infertile soil
