The property of water that enables it to
stabilize temperature in bodies of organisms
and thus makes it indispensible for life is:
1. High specific heat
2. High latent heat of fusion
3. High latent heat of vaporization
4. High cohesion and adhesion
The element that makes up the highest
percent weight of the human body is:
1. Carbon
2. Hydrogen
3. Oxygen
4. Nitrogen
The number of high energy bonds in a molecule of ATP is:
1. | 1 | 2. | 2 |
3. | 3 | 4. | 4 |
The molecule that is never branched and is
straight is:
1. Amylose
2. Amylopectin
3. Glycogen
4. Cellulose
An amino acid that is negative charged amongst the following will be:
1. Glutamic acid | 2. Lysine |
3. Arginine | 4. Histidine |
The correct ascending order of percent composition of various components of a typical cell would be:
1. Protein – Carbohydrate – Lipids – Nucleic acids
2. Protein – Nucleic acids – Carbohydrate – Lipids
3. Carbohydrates – Protein – Nucleic acids– Lipids
4. Carbohydrates – Protein – Lipids – Nucleic acids
Type of bonds that stabilize a tertiary structure
of a protein include all the following except:
1. van der Waal’s interactions
2. Hydrophobic interactions
3. Disulfide linkage
4. Covalent bonds
Protein molecules that assist in the proper
folding of other proteins are known as:
1. Ubiquitins
2. Chaperonins
3. Prions
4. Calmodulins
A ribosome inhibiting secondary metabolite
protein found in the castor plant is:
1. Ricin
2. Abrin
3. Concanvalin A
4. Vinblastin
When an enzyme-substrate reaction tends
toward zero order, the only way to make a
reaction speed up is to:
1. Add more substrate
2. Add more enzyme
3. Increase the temperature
4. Increase the pressure in the medium
