Reason (R): | The mitochondria, chloroplast and peroxisomes are single membrane bound organelles. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain (A). |
3. | (A) is True; (R) is False |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are False |
Which of the following organelles in a eukaryotic cell can only be seen after staining with vital dye?
1. Mitochondria | 2. Chloroplasts |
3. Nucleus | 4. Endoplasmic reticulum |
All the following are located in the mitochondrial matrix except:
1. Single circular DNA molecule
2. Proteins of electron transport chain
3. 70 S ribosomes
4. Enzymes of Kreb’s cycle
Scientists think that mitochondria may have once been separate living organisms for all of the following reasons except that they
1. have cilia and flagella
2. have their own DNA
3. can reproduce
4. can produce their own proteins
1. | Unless specifically stained, mitochondria are not easily visible under the microscope. |
2. | The number of mitochondria per cell is fixed irrespective of the physiological activity of the cells. |
3. | The inner membrane forms a number of infoldings called the cristae towards the matrix. |
4. | Mitochondria are the sites of aerobic respiration. |
The organelles in a eukaryotic cell that have their own genome are:
1. RER and SER
2. Mitochondria and chloroplasts
3. Plasmids and plastids
4. Nucleus and ribosomes
1. | They contain enzymes for the citric acid cycle. |
2. | They provide a large surface area for ATP production. |
3. | They house the genetic material (mitochondrial DNA). |
4. | They regulate the passage of molecules into and out of the mitochondria. |
I: | are also double membrane bound. |
II: | also contain small, double-stranded circular DNA molecules and ribosomes. |
