The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to evaluate each of the given statements about the anatomy of the ear and determine their validity. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Statement A: Scala media is also known as cochlear duct.** - The scala media, indeed, is another name for the cochlear duct. It is the central part of the cochlea and is filled with endolymph. - **Conclusion:** This statement is **True**. 2. **Statement B: Scala vestibuli and scala media contain endolymph and perilymph respectively.** - The scala vestibuli is filled with perilymph, while the scala media (cochlear duct) is filled with endolymph. Therefore, the statement incorrectly assigns the fluids to the wrong scala. - **Conclusion:** This statement is **False**. 3. **Statement C: Enlarged bases of semicircular canals contain projecting ridges called cristae ampullaris.** - The cristae ampullaris are indeed located in the ampullae of the semicircular canals and contain hair cells that are involved in balance. - **Conclusion:** This statement is **True**. 4. **Statement D: Saccule and utricle are parts of the otolith organ.** - The saccule and utricle are indeed parts of the vestibular system and are referred to as otolith organs, which help in detecting linear acceleration and head position. - **Conclusion:** This statement is **True**. ### Summary of Statements: - A: True - B: False - C: True - D: True ### Final Answer: Based on the evaluations, the correct answer is the option that corresponds to the truth values: **True, False, True, True**.

Anatomically, the ear can be divided into three major sections called the outer ear, the middle ear and the inner ear. How many statements are correct for inner ear? i. The organ of Corti is a structure located on the basilar membrane which contains hair cells that act as auditory receptors. ii. A large number of processes called stereo cilia are projected from the apical part of each hair cells iii. Above the rows of the hair cells is a thin elastic membrane called tectorial membrane iv. The vestibular apparatus is composed of three semi-circular canals and the otolith organ consisting of the saccule and utricle. v. Semi-circular canals contain a projecting ridge called macula vi. The saccule and utricle contain a projecting ridge called cristae vii. The cristae and macula responsible for maintenance of balance of the body and posture.

Vestibular apparatus of the internal ear includes - (a) crista ampullaris and macula , (b) Semicircular canals , (c) otolith organ , (d) Saccule and utricle

Read the following statements and find out the incorrect statements. a. Each testicular lobule contains one to three highly coiled seminiferous tubules in which sperm are produced. b. Each seminiferous tubule is lined on its inside by two types of cells called Leydig cells and Sertoli cells. c. The region outside the seminiferous tubules called interstitial space, contain small blood vessels and male germ cells (spermatogonia) which lead to sperm formation. d. In testis immunologically component cells are also present. e. The seminiferous tubules of the testis open into the rete testis through vasa efferentia.

The partially digested food coming from the stomach of a person enters a long and narrow organ A in his body. The organ A receives the secretions of two glands : liver and secretes a greensih yellow liquid B which is normally stored in the organ C. Pancreas secretes pancreatic juice which contains three digestive enzymes D, E and F. The intestinal juice completes the process of digestion of food. The inner wall of organ A has million of tiny finger-like projections G which help in the rapid absorption of digested food into blood stram. The undigested part of food then passes into wider tube H which absorbs most of the water from undigested food. The last part of tube H called I stores this undigested food (or waste) for some time. The undigested food is then passed out though opening J as faeces in the process known as K. (a) Name the organ A. (b) Name (i) liquid B, and (ii) organ C (c) What are the digestive enzymes D, E and F ? (d) Name (i) tube H (ii) part I (iii) opening J, and (iv) process K
