Read the following statements Organ systems in different group of animals show various patterns of complexities. The digestive system in Platyhelminthes has only a single opening to the outside of the body that serve as both mouth and anus, and is hence called complete. In open type of circulatory system, the blood is pumped out of the heart and the cells and tissues are directly bathed in it. In closed type, the blood is circulated through a series of vessels of varying diameters (arteries, veins and capillaries). Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct?

[A] : Keratin is one of a group of fibrous in- soluble proteins (scelero proteins) found in ectodermal cells of animals, as in hair, horns and nails. Leather is almost pure keratin. [R]: Cornification is a process occurring in vertebrate epidermis and epidermal struc- tures in which keratin replaces the cytoplasm of a cell.

Go through the following statements (i) HCG from placenta stimulates the sertoli cells of the male foetus to produce testosterone and is thus indirectly ivolved in the development of male external genitalia (ii) Sertoli cells secrete a protein called inhibin, which suppresses FSH synthesis. (iii) Humans have haemo-endothelial type of placenta. (iv) oxytcin stimulates the placenta to secrete prostaglandins which in turn stimulate more contractions of uterus. Which of these correct?

Go through the following statements (i) The secodnary oocyte undergoes meiosis II which proceeds only till metaphase until a sperm enters it.
