Question
Study the graph given below and answer the questions that follow:

Identify the ovarian phases during a menstrual cycle:

  1. 5th day to 12th day of the cycle.
  2. 14th day of the cycle.
  3. 16th day to 25th day of the cycle.

Answer

  1. 5th day to 12th day of the cycle: Follicular phase (Proliferative phase).
  2. 14th day of the cycle: Ovulatory phase (release of ovum) followed by luteal phase.
  3. 16th day to 25th day of the cycle: Luteal phase.
  4. FSH is secreted by the anterior pituitary which stimulates the ovarian follicle to secrete estrogen, which in turn stimulates the proliferation of the endometrium of the uterine wall.

Plants having foreign genes in their genome through genetic engineering are called transgenic plants. Genes can be incorporated either through a vector or through direct introduction of DNA. Bt cotton is a genetically modified organism which is pest resistant. It contain gene cry I Ac and cry II Ab of Bacillus thuringiensis. It is used to control lepidopterans, coleopterans and dipterans. Bt cotton can resist cotton bollworm and produce higher yields. Cry gene produces cry protein or Bt toxin. It is an endotoxin which remains as protoxin in plants and converted to active toxin after getting ingested by the insects. Alkaline pH of the insect gut solubilises the protein crystals, the activated toxin creates pores to the mid guts wall of the insects which cause them to death.

  2. Insect resistant.
  3. Drought resistant.
  4. All of these.

  1. Assertion: Cotton bollworms are killed by ingesting the leaves of the transgenic plant.

Reason: Bt toxin binds with the midgut wall of the insect and make pores in them.

  1. Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
  2. Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
  3. Assertion is true but reason is false.
