If you were to sample garden pea plants in Mendel’s garden, which of the following statements would hold?

Correct Answer: Round seeds were more abundant than wrinkled seeds
Dominant allele can express even in the presence of a recessive allele. Hence dominant phenotype is more common. Round seeds are dominant over wrinkled seeds; hence would be more abundant.

In Mendel’s experiments on garden pea plants, he performed a dihybrid cross of round yellow and green wrinkled seed plants. In the F2 generation, he sampled 1600 plants. Which of the following represents the correct number of plants of each phenotype?

Assertion (A) Mendel worked on garden pea (Pisum sativum).
Reason (R) Garden pea belongs to family-Malvaceae.

Study the following statements.
1. In a monohybrid cross, we study two characters.
2. Garden pea (Pisum sativum) reproduces asexually in nature.
3. In incomplete dominance, one gene (dominant) is mixed with the other gene (recessive).
4. Mendel choose seven visible characters, each with two contrasting forms.

S1: If you want to do well in your examinations you need to be able to think for yourself which means not just following the guide-books but write what you think yourself.
P: That will not help much.
Q: Few if any students do this.
R: By discussing things with other students, with your teachers, and with any intelligent people you meet you will find you can pick up a lot of new ideas but it is not good first accepting these ideas, swallowing them undigested and then repeating them in the examination.
S: At first you will find it difficult but if you go on trying you will find clear independent thought becomes easier.

Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.
Manja, or the glass-coated string used for flying kites, not only poses threat to humans, animals and birds but also to trees. A study by the country's oldest botanical garden has revealed that it poses a great threat to trees. But how can a snapped string struck in a tree kill the tree? Apparently, it does so by allying with the creepers in the garden.
A research paper by three scientists of the Acharya Jagdish Chandra Bose Indian Botanic Garden, located in West Bengal's Howrah district, illustrates in detail how the manja, in collusion with climbers, does the damage. "The abandoned, torn kite strings act as an excellent primary supporting platform for the tender climbers, giving easy passage to reach the top of the trees. Lateral branches from the top of the climber and other accessory branches from the ground reaches the top taking support of the first climber, completely covers the treetop, thus inhibiting the penetration of sunlight," says the research paper.

Read the passage carefully and select the best answer to each question out of the given four alternatives. One should consciously engage in activities that will nourish your soul. Just as we nourish the body, we need to nurture the soul to connect to the creative power ofthe universe and to manifest joy in our lives. Often, we forget to address the soul, lost as we are in a jungle of material and sensual pleasures. But the more youembrace what feeds your soul, the happier you become. So if you want to enjoy the abundance of life, engage in what enriches your soul. Nurturing the soul is allabout finding calm amidst chaos. There are a number of practices that empower people towards this end including silent contemplation, various forms of meditation,yoga and tai chi However, the rigor and discipline involved in the pursuit of such practices often seems to discourage people. Add to this, the temptations of thematerial world that leave little time and motivation for anyone to pursue the spiritual path. Poet Walt Whitman declared: “Whatever satisfies the soul is truth”. Thegood news is that simple, everyday activities can also nutrify the soul — like spending time in the midst of nature, dancing in the rain or just putting thoughts onpaper. Do whatever is calming and pleases you. Creative pursuits are particularly appealing as inside each one of us, there is an artist craving for release andawaiting an opportunity for expression. One of the ways to indulge the artist within is to get started with the practice of any one or more of the creative art formssuch as music, singing, dancing, acting, drawing, painting, sculpting, poetry, fiction or essay writing. When you engage in such soul nourishing activities, all thought and energy gets focused toward goal accomplishment. At this point, you will find that even unknownforces of the universe are conniving to assist you in your amateurish but sincere attempts. As you progress, you are motivated to do better. You touch and access afaculty, a part of you that you never knew existed. Your inner artist is unleashed, baring the beauty of your soul that has found a fond medium of expression. Forinstance, a sculptors soul is seen in his artwork; a musicians in his compositions; an actors in his acting, a painters in his paintings and so on. It is immaterialwhether your effort is an immaculate artwork or just a clumsy attempt by a layperson. The idea is to try, be inspired and to create giving free rein to the mind.
