Assertion (A): | The Bohr effect enables the body to adapt to changing conditions and makes it possible to supply extra oxygen to tissues that need it the most. |
Reason (R): | A lower pH in strenuously metabolizing tissues promotes the dissociation of oxygen from haemoglobin, and allows the surrounding tissues to obtain enough oxygen to meet their demands. |
In the light of the above statements choose the correct answer from the options given below:
1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is true but (R) is false. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are false. |
Assertion: Oxygenation of blood in the lungs displaces carbon dioxide from hemoglobin which increases the removal of carbon dioxide.
Reason: Oxygenated hemoglobin is a better proton donor than deoxygenated hemoglobin.
1. Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
2. Both assertion and reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
3. Assertion is true but reason is false.
4. Both assertion and reason are false.
Assertion: Chloride concentration is higher in systemic venous blood than in systemic arterial blood.
Reason: The rise in intracellular bicarbonate in RBCs leads to bicarbonate intake and chloride export.
1. Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
2. Both assertion and reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
3. Assertion is true but reason is false.
4. Both assertion and reason are false.
Assertion: The medulla oblongata uses CSF pH as an indicator of blood carbon dioxide concentration.
Reason: Carbon dioxide is the main determinant of the pH of the CSF:
1. Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
2. Both assertion and reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
3. Assertion is true but reason is false.
4. Both assertion and reason are false.
Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R):
Assertion (A): | Particles that are less than 2.5 μm in diameter are the most dangerous for the pathogenesis of occupational lung disease. |
Reason (R): | The particles of this size move into and out of alveoli, often without substantial deposition and injury. |
In the light of the above statements choose the correct answer from the options given below:
1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is true but (R) is false. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are false. |
Assertion: Rarely, emphysema may be caused by the deficiency of the enzyme Alpha 1 antitrypsin deficiency.
Reason: Deficiency of alpha-1 antitrypsin leads to a chronic uninhibited tissue breakdown.
1. Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
2. Both assertion and reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
3. Assertion is true but reason is false.
4. Both assertion and reason are false
Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R):

Reason (R): | Corticosteroids are potent anti-inflammatory agents. |
In the light of the above statements choose the correct answer from the options given below:
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
Assertion: The respiratory system of a bird more efficient than the human respiratory system.
Reason: The bird respiratory system does not mix exhaled air with inhaled air.
1. Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
2. Both assertion and reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
