Here it is asked about, Number of calvin cycle required to generate one molecule of
glucose/hexose.
Explanation:
For ease of understanding, the Calvin cycle can be described by three stages: carboxylation,
reduction and regeneration.
- For every CO2 molecule entering the Calvin cycle, 3 molecules of ATP and 2 of NADPH are
required.
- 6 turns of Calvin cycle are required for the formation of one glucose as 6 CO2 are required for
the synthesis of one hexose.
- 12 NADPH + H+ & 18 ATP are required as an assimilatory power to produce one Glucose in
dark reaction in C3 cycle.
The correct option is 3. Six
114)
SOLUTION—
Here's why:
B. The other options are also important proteins, but they are not as widespread or
abundant as RuBisCO:
A. Catalase: An enzyme that breaks down hydrogen peroxide.
116)
The question asks about the dark reactions of photosynthesis. Specifically, it asks for the
statement that correctly describes these reactions
1. Dark reactions occur in darkness:
A. Incorrect: While these reactions are called 11 dark reactions, 11 they do not occur only in
darkness. The term 11 dark" refers to the fact that these reactions do no directly require light.
However, they can occur both in light and in darkness, a long as ATP and NADPH (produced
by the light-dependent reactions) are available.
B. So, this statement is incorrect.
A. incorrect: Dark reactions are indeed not direct light-dependent. They do not require light
directly but rely on the ATP and NADPH produced in the light reactions to drive the fixation of
carbon dioxide into organic molecules (such glucose).
B. So, this statement is incorrect.
A. Correct: This is another way of stating that dark reactions do not depend on light for energy
directly. While light is indirectly involved through ATP and NADPH produced in the light
reactions, the dark reactions themselves do not need light to occur.
B. So, this statement is correct.
A. Incorrect: The dark reactions occur in the stroma of the chloroplast, not in th membrane
system (which is where the light reactions take place). The stroma the fluid-filled area
surrounding the thylakoid membranes, where the Calvin cycle takes place.
B. So, this statement is incorrect.
Conclusion:
The correct answers are:
A. Option 2: Dark reactions are not light dependent.

To determine how many ATP molecules are required in the reduction step of the Calvin cycle
for the synthesis of one molecule of sucrose, we can follow these steps:
Step 1: Understand the Calvin Cycle
The Calvin cycle consists of three main phases: carbon fixation, reduction, and regeneration.
The reduction phase is where 3-phosphoglycerate (3-PGA) is converted into glyceraldehyde-3-
phosphate (G3P), which is a precursor for glucose and sucrose.
Step 2: Identify the Carbon Content of Sucrose
Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of two monosaccharides: glucose and fructose. Each of
these monosaccharides contains six carbon atoms, leading to a total of 12 carbon atoms in one
molecule of sucrose.
Step 3: Determine ATP Requirement per Carbon Atom
In the reduction phase of the Calvin cycle, each molecule of 3-PGA (which is a 3-carbon
compound) is converted into G3P. This process requires ATP. For every carbon atom that is
fixed, 2 ATP molecules are consumed.
Step 4: Calculate Total ATP for Sucrose
Since sucrose contains 12 carbon atoms, we can calculate the total ATP requirement:
- For, 12 carbon atoms: Total ATP = 12 carbon atoms × 2 ATP per carbon = 24 ATP
Correct answer: 1. 24 ATP

SOLUTION/EXPLAINATION: -
The total volume of air the lungs can accommodate at the end of forced inspiration is called
Total Lung Capacity (TLC).
It includes:
● Tidal Volume (TV): The volume of air inhaled or exhaled during normal breathing.
● Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV): The additional air that can be inhaled after a
normal inspiration.
● Expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV): The additional air that can be exhaled after a
normal expiration.
● Residual Volume (RV): The air remaining in the lungs even after maximum exhalation.
Thus,
TLC = TV + IRV + ERV + RV
A. Option 2 (Influx of CI- ions into RBC): This is actually part of the process that balances the
charge when bicarbonate ions leave the RBC, so it is more accurate than Option 1 for the
chloride shift mechanism.
B. Option 3 (Influx of HCO3- ions into Plasma): This describes the movement of bicarbonate
ions from the RBC to the plasma, but it does not focus on the chloride ion exchange, which is
essential for maintaining charge balance.
C. Option 4 (Efflux of HCO3- ions from RBC): While bicarbonate ions do move out of the RBC,
the chloride shift focuses on the movement of CI- ions into the RBC to maintain charge
balance, not just the efflux of bicarbonate.
139)
140) Solution:
Expiratory capacity is the total volume of air that a person can exhale after a normal
inspiration. It includes the tidal volume (the amount of air inhaled or exhaled in a normal
breath) and the expiratory reserve volume (the additional amount of air that can be forcibly
exhaled after a normal exhalation).
141) The disorder that represents a decrease in respiratory surface due to damaged
alveolar walls is 3. Emphysema.
A. Emphysema is a chronic lung disease that causes the destruction of the alveoli, the tiny air
sacs in the lungs responsible for gas exchange. As the alveoli are damaged, the surface area
for gas exchange decreases, leading to difficulty in breathing.
142)
143)
144)
SOLUTION/EXPLAINATION: -
A. This is incorrect because the trachea has C-shaped cartilaginous rings, not complete
rings. These open at the back to allow flexibility and contact with the esophagus. ❌
B. Epiglottis – Elastic cartilaginous flap (iii):
The epiglottis is an elastic cartilage flap that prevents food from entering the windpipe during
swallowing. ✅
C. Alveoli – Very thin, irregular walled, vascularised bag-like structures (iv):
The alveoli are microscopic sacs with thin walls, richly supplied by blood capillaries,
facilitating gas exchange. ✅
D. Pleural fluid – Reduces friction on the lung surface (v):
The pleural fluid is present between the two pleural membranes and reduces friction during
lung movement. ✅
146)
148) Solution/Explanation/Calculation:
Cyclostomes have a sucking and circular mouth without jaws.
Cyclostomes are marine but migrate for spawning to fresh water. After spawning, Within a few
days, they die. Their larvae, after metamorphosis, return to the ocean (Anadromous
migration).
Examples :- Petromyzon (Lamprey) and Myxine (Hagfish).
150) Solution/Explanation/Calculation:
Phylum chordata has following fundamental features :
1. Notochord :- Elastic, solid rod like structure which is present throughout the life or only
during embryonic development, locked between nerve and digestive tube.
2. Dorsal hollow nerve cord :- It differentiates into brain and spinal cord it is present above the
notchord.
3. Paired pharyngeal gill slits : -
Take part in circulation of water for respiration.
In higher chordates, they occur only in embryonic stage.
151)
SOLUTION/EXPLAINATION:
Earthworm: Respiration occurs through its moist cuticle, which allows for gas exchange.
A. Arthropods: Respire using tracheal systems, a network of air-filled tubes that deliver oxygen
directly to tissues.
B. Fishes: Use gills to extract oxygen from water.
C. Birds/Reptiles: Respire using lungs, adapted to their specific metabolic needs.
152)
153)
A. 20-25 percent CO2 is transported by RBCs: This statement is true. About 20-25% of the
carbon dioxide (CO2) in the blood is carried by hemoglobin in red blood cells (RBCs) as
carbaminohemoglobin.
B. 97 percent O2 is transported by RBCs: This is also true. Around 97% of the oxygen (O2) is
carried by hemoglobin in RBCs, forming oxyhemoglobin, while the rest is dissolved in plasma.
C. 70 percent CO2 is carried as bicarbonate: This is true as well. Approximately 70% of CO2 is
transported in the blood as bicarbonate ions (HCO3-) after being converted by carbonic
anhydrase in red blood cells.
Therefore, all of the statements are correct, and Option 4 is the correct choice.
154)
155) Solution:
The pneumotaxic centre is located in the pons of the brainstem. It helps to regulate the rate
and depth of breathing by sending inhibitory signals to the inspiratory neurons in the medulla
oblongata. This helps to prevent over inflation of the lungs and ensures that breathing is
smooth and coordinated.
156)
SOLUTION/EXPLAINATION: -
The chemosensitive area located in the medulla oblongata, adjacent to the respiratory rhythm
center, is primarily sensitive to CO₂ levels in the blood. When CO₂ levels rise (leading to an
increase in hydrogen ions, H⁺), the chemoreceptors detect this change and stimulate the
respiratory center to increase the rate and depth of breathing. This helps to expel excess CO₂
and maintain acid-base balance in the body.
● HCO₃ (Bicarbonate): While bicarbonate plays a role in buffering blood pH, it is not the
direct trigger for respiration regulation in the chemosensitive area. The focus is on CO₂ and
its effect on pH (H⁺ concentration).
157)
A. Question: Assertion: Larynx is a cartilaginous box which helps in sound production. Reason:
Epiglottis flap covers the glottis during swallowing and prevents the entry of food into the
larynx.
B. Given Data: Assertion and Reason statements about the larynx and epiglottis.
C. Concept: Anatomy and function of the larynx and epiglottis.
D. Explanation:
A. Assertion: The assertion is true. The larynx is indeed a cartilaginous structure, and it houses
the vocal cords, which vibrate to produce sound.
B. Reason: The reason is also true. The epiglottis is a flap-like structure that covers the glottis
(the opening of the larynx) during swallowing. This action prevents food from entering the
trachea and larynx.
C. Relationship: While both statements are true, the reason is not the direct explanation for the
assertion. The larynx produces sound because of the vocal cords, not because of the
epiglottis's role in swallowing. The epiglottis's function is to protect the airway, not to produce
sound.
E. Final Answer: 1. Both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of
Assertion.
160)
A. Vital capacity is the maximum amount of air a person can exhale after taking the deepest
possible breath. It includes the inspiratory reserve volume (the maximum amount of air that
can be inhaled after normal inhalation), the tidal volume (the volume of air inhaled or exhaled
during normal breathing), and the expiratory reserve volume (the maximum amount of air
that can be exhaled after a normal exhalation).
The scenario described in the question - breathing in a volume of air by forced inspiration after a
forced expiration - refers to vital capacity, which is the total amount of air that can be exhaled after
a maximal inhalation.
Here's why the other options are incorrect:
A. Option 1 (Total lung capacity): Total lung capacity refers to the total volume of air the
lungs can hold, including vital capacity plus the residual volume (the amount of air
remaining in the lungs after maximal exhalation). It's a broader measure and does not
specifically describe the air taken in after forced inspiration following a forced expiration.
B. Option 2 (Tidal volume): Tidal volume is the amount of air moved in and out of the study
lungs with each normal breath. It does not refer to the volume taken in after forced 08
expiration.
C. Option 4 (Inspiratory capacity): Inspiratory capacity is the amount of air that can be
inhaled after a normal exhalation, not after forced expiration.
Thus, vital capacity is the correct answer because it refers to the maximum amount of air that can
be taken in after a forced expiration.
161)
NCERT XI Pg.# 48
162)
Solution: Statement (a): True. During inspiration, both the diaphragm and external
intercostal muscles contract. This contraction expands the thoracic cavity, reducing the
pressure inside the lungs (intra-pulmonary pressure), causing air to flow into the lungs.
A. Statement (b): True. Normal breathing is often referred to as abdominal breathing because
the diaphragm moves downward during inspiration, causing the abdomen to expand as the
lungs fill with air.
B. Statement (c): False. This is not normal expiration. It is a forced expiration, which involves
the internal intercostal muscles (IICM) and abdominal muscles contracting to expel air more
forcefully, not relaxing.
C. Statement (d): False. Inspiration occurs when the intra-pulmonary pressure is less than the
atmospheric pressure, not more. This pressure difference allows air to move into the lungs.
Thus, the correct statements are (a) and (b). Therefore, the correct option is 4.
164)
A. Question: How many animals in the given list have gills for respiration? Earthworm, Frog,
Fish, Insects, Reptiles, Aquatic arthropods, Flatworm, Molluscs, Birds
B. Given Data: List of animals. Options: 1. Six, 2. Four, 3. Three, 4. Five
C. Concept: Respiratory organs in different animal groups.
D. Explanation: Let's examine each group:
Therefore, the animals from the list that use gills are: Fish, Aquatic arthropods, Frog (during
their tadpole stage), and some Molluscs.
166) Solution:
All three factors – PCO2, H+ ion concentration and temperature – can interfere with the binding
of oxygen to hemoglobin.
Correct option: (4)
167)
Explanation :
The correct sequence of respiration steps is:
A. Pulmonary ventilation – Air enters and exits the lungs (D).
B. Diffusion of gases across the alveolar membrane (A).
C. Transport of gases through the blood (C).
D. Diffusion of gases between blood and tissues (B).
E. Cellular respiration – O2 is used for metabolism, releasing CO2 (E).

A. This is the volume of air that can be forcibly exhaled after a normal exhalation.
B. The formula ERV = VC - IRV - TV is also correct, where VC is the vital capacity IRV is the
inspiratory reserve volume, and TV is the tidal volume.
C. The typical value for ERV is approximately 3000 ml.
D. So, (ii) Expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV) = 3000 ml is correct.
A. This is the maximum volume of air that can be exhaled after a maximum inhalation.
B. The formula VC = IRV + TV + ERV is correct, where VC is the sum of inspiratory reserve
volume (IRV), tidal volume (TV), and expiratory reserve volume (ERV).
C. The typical value for VC is around 4500 ml.
D. So, (iii) Vital Capacity (VC) = 4500 ml is correct.
A. This is the volume of air remaining in the lungs after a forced exhalation.
B. The formula RV = FRC - ERV is incorrect. In fact, RV is the volume of air that cannot be
exhaled from the lungs, and it doesn't depend on FRC (functional residual capacity) in this
way.
C. The typical value for RV is about 1200 ml, but the formula given is not accurate according to
NCERT.
Solution: During Hamburger shift (also known chloride shift) HCO3- ions moves out from RBC
and Cl-ions centers into RBC. This process occurs during transport of CO2-.

177) Solution:
A. A high concentration of carbonic anhydrase is present in RBC.
A. True. Carbonic anhydrase is an enzyme that is abundant in red blood cells (RBCs) where it
catalyzes the conversion of CO2 and water into carbonic acid, which then dissociates into
bicarbonate and hydrogen ions. This helps in CO2 transport and pH regulation in blood.
A. True. Although most carbonic anhydrase is found in RBCs, small quantities are also present in
the plasma. However, RBCs have much higher concentrations of this enzyme compared to
plasma.
A. True. In terms of CO2 transport, about 4 ml of CO2 is delivered by every 100 ml of blood to the
alveoli, mainly in the form of bicarbonate ions after conversion in the RBCs.
A. True. About 20-25% of CO2 in the blood is carried bound to hemoglobin in the form of
carbaminohemoglobin.

Solution:
A. Question: The conditions which are favourable for the formation of oxyhaemoglobin are:
B. Given Data: Options:
1. PO2↑, PCO2↓, H+ conc.↓, Temperature↓;
2. PO2↓, PCO2↓, H+ conc.↑, Temperature↑;
3. PO2↑, PCO2↓, H+ conc.↓, Temperature↓;
4. PO2↑, PCO2↑, H+ conc.↑, Temperature↑
C. Concept: Factors affecting oxygen-hemoglobin binding and the oxygen dissociation curve.
D. Explanation: Oxyhemoglobin (hemoglobin bound to oxygen) formation is favored under
conditions of high oxygen partial pressure (PO2), low carbon dioxide partial pressure (PCO2),
low H+ concentration (high pH), and low temperature. These conditions are typically found in
the lungs where oxygen uptake occurs.
High PO2: In the lungs, the partial pressure of oxygen is high, favoring the binding of oxygen to
hemoglobin.
A. Low PCO2 : Low PCO2 means less carbonic acid formation, hence lower H+ concentration
and higher pH.
B. Low H+ concentration (high pH): A less acidic environment promotes oxygen binding
to hemoglobin.
C. Low Temperature : Lower temperatures favor the stability of the oxyhemoglobin bond.

Question: Analyze the given Assertion and Reason regarding CO2 dissociation in the alveoli.
B. Given Data:
C. Concept: Carbon dioxide transport and the factors affecting its release in the lungs.
D. Explanation:
A. Assertion: The assertion is true. In the alveoli, where gas exchange occurs, CO2 is released
from carbamino-hemoglobin. This is essential for CO2 to be exhaled from the body.
B. Reason: The reason is also true. The partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2) in the alveoli is
low, while the partial pressure of oxygen (pO2) is high. This difference in partial pressures
drives the diffusion of CO2 from the blood into the alveoli and O2 from the alveoli into the
blood.
C. Relationship: The reason is the correct explanation for the assertion. The low pCO2 in the
alveoli favors the dissociation of CO2 from carbamino-hemoglobin. The high pO2 simultaneously
promotes the binding of oxygen to hemoglobin. This is a crucial aspect of the gas exchange
process in the lungs.
