Hint And Solutions

1. (3) Symmetrical means all alkyl or aryl groups must be
same.
2. (2)

compound IUPAC name is 2-phenyl ethanamine

3.
(4) Self Explanatory
4. (4) CH3 − CH2 − CH2 − CH2 − NH2 ,

Since, +I effect and solvation increases basic character

while - I effect and resonance decreases basic chacter.
Hence, correct choice is (3)
10. (3) S 1 reaction proceeds through formation of
N

carbocation. Hence, more stable the carbocation more is

the reactivity towards S 1 mechanism. Benzyl carbocation
N

is the stable carbocation among given.

5. (4) All reducing agents are used to reduce cyanides to 11. (4) Primary amines on treatment with nitrous acid
amines. liberates nitrogen.
6. (1) Ethylamine (C H NH ) is a primary amine.
2 5 2

Hence, liberates nitrogen on treatment with nitrous acid.

NaNO2 +HCl

C2 H5 NH2 + HNO2 ⟶
+ H2 O
-
R - N ≡ N Cl −−→ ROH + N2 + HCl
Diazonium

7. (4) Due to intermolecular hydrogen bonding chloride

8. 12. (3)
(4) Self Explanatory
9. (3)
13. (2)

14. Hydrolysis

(2) Raffinose −−−−−−−→ Glucose

+ Fructose + Galactose

So, raffinose is a trisaccharide. 24. (3) In α-helix, hydrogen bonds are present between −NH
15. (2) Bromine water is used to confirm presence of group of one amino acid residue to the > C = O group of
aldehydic carbonyl group in glucose. another aminoacid residue.
25.
(3) Self Explanatory
26. (4) Coagulation of protein is called denaturation
27.
(4) Self Explanatory

Glucose gets oxidised to six carbon carboxylic acid 28.

(gluconic acid) on reaction with a mild oxidising agent ( Br 2

16. (3) (4) Self Explanatory
30. (3) The genetic information of the cell is contained in the
sequence of the bases, A T, G and C in the DNA molecule.
When a cell divides, DNA molecules replicate and make
exact copies of themselves so that each daughter cell will
have DNA identical to that of the parent cell.
31. (3) Example of extreme and harsh habitats are Deep

polysachharide. Ecology.

19. (3) Glycogen is called animal starch and is found in all 33. (1) Environmental factor(s) that characterise the habitat of
animal cells. It constitutes the reserve food material. an organism are biotic components & Abiotic components

20. 34. (4) Grassland

(1) Self Explanatory 35. (4) In thermal springs and hydrothermal vents the
21. (3) Arginine amino acid is basic in nature. (Basic due to temperature is more and exceeds 100 C ∘

the presence of 'NH' groups) 36. (1) Steno -narrow/short, haline-salt concentration.
37. (2) Sunlight is available as a source of energy and is
important in photosynthesis.
38. (2) Regarding temperature and osmotic concentration
nearly all plants are conformers. Conformers are those
organisms whose internal conditions are controlled
primarily by environmental conditions.
39. (3) Mammals have the capacity to regulate their body
temperature and their osmotic potential.
40. (2) Conformers are also called ectotherms.
41. (3) Adaptations are meant for survival.
42. (2) Rohtang Pass near Manali and Leh
43. (1) Kangaroo rat is capable of meeting all its water
requirements through internal fat oxidation. This animal is
found in North American deserts
44. (2) Counting the number of fishes caught in a trap to find
population density of fishes in a lake is an example of
using relative density to measure population density in a
certain area.
45. (1) Proportionate number of persons in a successive age
22. (2) categories in a given population is called age distribution
46. (4) Population is best described by stated by

(2) Share or compete for similar resources
(3) Live in groups in a well defined geographical area.
23. (2)
47. (1) A population can grow exponentially when food and
space are unlimited.
48. (2) Immigration and emigration not an assumption of 55. (4) A plant species, which makes its own food, cannot
logistic growth survive alone; it needs
