Cell: The Unit of Life - Worksheet

CLASS:XI SUBJECT: SCIENCE

In the following questions, a statement assertion is followed by a statement of reason.Mark the correct choice as:
a) If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
b) If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reasonis not the correct explanation of Assertion.
c) If Assertion is true but Reason is false.
d) If both Assertion and Reason are false.

1. Assertion: Organisms are made up of cells.


Reason: Cells are the structural unit of living organisms. A cell keeps its chemical
composition steady within its boundary.

2. Assertion: The arrangement of axonemal microtubules in cilia or flagella is called a 9 + 2


array.
Reason: The axoneme usually has nine pairs or doublets of radially arranged peripherally.

3. Assertion: Ribosomes are non-membrane bound organelles found in the prokaryotic cells
only. Reason: These are present only in the cytoplasm.

4. Assertion: Eukaryotic cells have more DNA than prokaryotic cells.


Reason: Eukaryotes are genetically more complex than prokaryotes.

5. Assertion: A cell membrane shows fluid behaviour.


Reason: A membrane is composed of lipids and proteins.

6. Assertion: Mitochondria and chloroplasts are semi-autonomous organelles.


Reason: They are formed by division of preexisting organelles as well as contain DNA but lack
protein synthesizing machinery.

7. Assertion: Lysosomes are capable of digesting carbohydrates, proteins, lipids and nucleic
acids.
Reason: Lysosomes are rich in hydrolytic enzymes like lipases, proteases and
carbohydrases.
8. Assertion: Plasmids are double-stranded extra chromosomal DNA.
Reason: Plasmids are possessed by eukaryotic cells.
