Which of the following statements are true? If false, correct them: (a) Boron deficiency leads to stout axis. (b) Every mineral element that is present in a cell is needed by the cell. (c) Nitrogen as a nutrient element, is highly immobile in the plants. (d) It is very easy to establish the essentiality of micronutrients because they are required only in trace quantities.

Read the following statements (i) Animals in which the cells are arranged in two embryonic layers, an external ectoderm and an internal endoderm, are called diploblastic animals. Notochord is an ectodermal derived rod like structure formed on the ventral side during embryonic development in some animals. In some animals, the body cavity is not lined by mesoderm, instead, the mesoderm is present as scattered pouches in between the ectoderm and endoderm ans such a body cavity is called pseudocoelom. Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct?

X is a human being with the reproductive oval shaped almond sized organ Y which releases mature gamete Z monthly once that goes into tube like structure A where it fuses with another gamete called B to form a new cell C. This cell C divides vigorously to form a ball of cells D which gets embedded in the thick lining of organ E of the reproductive system of X where it grows and develops into a foetus. i] Identify X, as male or female. ii] Name the reproductive part Y and give its two functions. iii] Name the gametes Z and B. Iv] Name the process which leads to the formation of C and Identify C. v] Name the ball of cells D. vi] Identify the organ E.

A system of greater disorder of molecules is more probable. The disorder of molecules is reflected by the entropy of the system. A liquid vapourizes to form a more disordered gas. When a solute is present, there is additional contribution to the entropy of the liquid due to increased randomness. As the entropy of solution is higher than that of pure liquid, there is weaker tendency to form the gas. Thus, a solute (non-volatile) lowers the vapour pressure of a liquid, and hence a higher boiling point of the solution. Similarly, the greater randomness of the solution opposes the tendercy to freeze. In consequence, a lower temperature must be reached for achieving the equilibrium between the solid (frozen solvent) and the solution. The elevation in boiling point (DeltaT_(b)) and depression in freezing point (DeltaT_(f)) of a solution are the colligative properties which depend only on the concentration of particles of the solute and not their identity. For dilute solutions, (DeltaT_(b)) and (DeltaT_(f)) are proportional to the molarity of the solute in the solution. Dissolution of a non-volatile solute into a liquid leads to
