Q12) a)A-lag phase
B-log phase
C-Stationary phase (1.5)
b) Exponential growth (0.5)
Q13) In an animal cell, this is achieved by the appearance of a furrow in the plasma
membrane. Plant cells are enclosed by a cell wall, therefore undergo cytokinesis by a
different
mechanism. (0.5)
In plant cells, the formation of the new cell wall begins with the formation of a simple
precursor, called the cell-plate that represents the middle lamella between the walls of two
adjacent cells. (0.5)
b) In some organisms karyokinesis is not followed by cytokinesis as a result of which
multinucleate condition arises leading to the formation of syncytium (e.g., liquid
endosperm in coconut).

Q14)a)NADP reductase enzyme is located on the outer side of lamella or thylakoid of the
chloroplast. NADP reductase transfers H+ to NADP+ to produce NADPH. (0.5+0.5)
b) This gradient is important because it is the breakdown of this gradient that leads to the
synthesis of ATP. The gradient is broken down due to the movement of protons across the
membrane to the stroma through the transmembrane channel of the CF0 of the ATP synthase.

c) (a) Since splitting of the water molecule takes place on the inner side of the membrane, the
protons or hydrogen ions that are produced by the splitting of water accumulate within the
lumen of the thylakoids.
(b) As electrons move through the photosystems, protons are transported across the
membrane. This happens because the primary accepter of electron which is located towards
the outer side of the membrane transfers its electron not to an electron carrier but to an H
carrier. Hence, this molecule removes a proton from the stroma while transporting an
electron. When this molecule passes on its electron to the electron carrier on the inner side of
the membrane, the proton is released into the inner side or the lumen side of the membrane.
(c) The NADP reductase enzyme is located on the stroma side of the membrane. Along with
electrons that come from the acceptor of electrons of PS I, protons are necessary for the
reduction of NADP+ to NADPH+ H+. These protons are also removed from the stroma.

Q15)
(1.5)
Respiration is generally assumed to be a catabolic process because during respiration, various
substrates are broken down for deriving energy.
During synthesis of fatty acids, acetyl CoA is withdrawn from respiratory pathway. Also, in
the synthesis of proteins, respiratory substrates get withdrawn. Thus, respiration is also
involved in anabolism. (0.5)
Therefore, respiration can be termed as amphibolic pathway as it involves both anabolism
and catabolism. (1)
Q17)a) (1)
A particular property of amino acids is the ionizable nature of –NH2 and –COOH groups.
Consequence-in solutions of different pH, the structure of amino acids changes. (1+1)
b) The three chemically distinct components in a nucleotide are -
a heterocyclic compound, which is a nitrogenous base,
a monosaccharide, which is a pentose sugar, and
a phosphate group or phosphoric acid. (1.5)
c)Guanylic acid (0.5)
