The figure indicates the ringing or girdling experiment. Bark having phloem is removed. This experiment proves that phloem is the pat for translocation of food. In this experiment swollen part of stem has been shown. The possible cause of this swollen is

A

Injured parts undergo turgidity

B

a repairing mechanism is taken place

C

Accumulation of water and mineral just above the ring

D

Accumulation of food material just above the ring (as downward movement of food is inhibited)

A string is wrapped several time on a cylinder of mass M and radius R , the cylinder is pivoted about its axis of symmetery . A block mass of m tied to the string rests on support so that the string is black. The block is lifted upto a height h and the support is removed. (shown in figure) When the string experience a jerk, a large impulsive force is generated for a short duration, so that contribution of weight mg can be neglected suring this duration. then what will be speed of blocks m , just after string has becomes taut

The break-down of glucose in a cell occurs in any of the following pathways : Three experiments (A, B, C) have been set up. In each experiment, a flask contains the organism in growth medium, glucose and a brown dye that changes its colour to yellow when the pH decreases. The mouth of the flask is attached to a test tube containing lime water (Calcium hydroxide , as shown in the figure) . In C, but not in A and B , air is removed from the flask before beginning the experiment. After a period of growth, the following observation were made : A : Lime water turns milky , the dye colour remains the same B : The dye colour changes , lime water does not turn milky C : Lime water turns milky , the dye colour remains the same (a) Question : Identify which of the reactions is the pathways depicted above is taking place in each experiment . Give reasons for your answer . (b) Question : Identify which of the reactions in the pathways depicted above is expected to occur in Red Blood Cells (RBCs)

In the following items, each passage consists of six sentences. The first sentence (S_(1)) and the final sentence (S_(6)) are given in the beginning. The middle four sentences in each have been removed and jumbled up. These are labelled P, Q, and S. You are required to find out the proper sequence of the four sentences and mark accordingly on the Answer Sheet S_(1) : The advancement of science is not a secret or a mysterious process. S_(6) : What is he to think but to marvel at the skill of science, and to fear its power ? P : No one tells the layman about the years of experiment and failure. Q : If it sometimes seems so, that is just because the day-to-day work of science is so unspectacular. R : How is he to know what has not been done, or to guess the labour of what has ? S : You hear nothing from the research worker for years, and then, suddenly, there is the result in the headlines, penicillin or the jet engine or nuclear fusion. The proper sequence should be :
