The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to evaluate each statement one by one and determine whether they are true or false. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Statement I: "All the carbon compounds that we get from living tissues can be called ‘biomolecules."** - **Analysis**: Biomolecules are organic molecules that are essential for life and include proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and nucleic acids. All of these are carbon-containing compounds derived from living tissues. - **Conclusion**: This statement is **True**. 2. **Statement II: "The ash formed after burning a tissue contains inorganic and organic substances."** - **Analysis**: When a tissue is burned, the organic compounds (which are carbon-based) are oxidized and converted into carbon dioxide and water vapor. What remains is primarily inorganic ash, which consists of minerals and other inorganic substances. Therefore, the ash does not contain organic substances. - **Conclusion**: This statement is **False**. 3. **Statement III: "Beta amino acids are used by the cells to form proteins."** - **Analysis**: Proteins are made up of amino acids, specifically alpha amino acids. Beta amino acids do exist, but they are not used in the synthesis of proteins. Only alpha amino acids are incorporated into proteins during translation. - **Conclusion**: This statement is **False**. ### Final Evaluation: - Statement I: True - Statement II: False - Statement III: False ### Summary of Results: - **True Statements**: 1 - **False Statements**: 2 and 3
