Consider the following three statements and select the correct option stating which one is true (T) and which one is false (F). (i) Oparin of Russia and Haldane of England proposed that the first form of life could have come from pre-existing nonliving organic molecules (e.g, RNA, protein etc.) and that formation of life was preceded by schemical evolution. (ii) Based on observations made during a sea voyage around the world. Charies Darwin concluded that existing living forms share similarities to varying degrees only among themselves. (iii) Evolution by natural selection must have started when cellular forms of life with different metabloic cpability originated on Earth.

Consider the following four statements (i) - (iv) and select the correct option stating which ones are true (T) and which ones are false (F). (i) The epithelium of proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) of nephron in the kideney has microvilli. (ii) Simple epithelium covers the dry surface of the skin, the moist surface of buccal cavity, pharynx, inner lining of ducts of salivary glands and of pancreatic ducts.

Give the IUPAC names for each of the following : (i) (CH_(3)CH_(2))_(2)CHCH(CH_(3))CH_(2)CH_(3) (ii) (CH_(3))_(4)C (iii) [(CH_(3))_(3)C]_(4)C (iv) (CH_(3))_(3)C CH_(2)C (CH_(3))_(3) Strategy: Select as the parent structure the longest possible continous chain and then consider the compound to have been derived from this structure by the replacement of H atoms by ends of the longest chain, begin numbering at the end nearest to the branch that is first in alphabetical order. 3. Assign the name and position number to each substituent. Arrange the substituents in alphabetical order. Hyphenated prefixes such as tert- sec- are not used in the alphabetization of substituents. 4. Use on appropriate prefix to group like substituents: di=2, tri=3, tetra=4 penta= 5, and so on. Do not consider these prefix when alphabetizing attached groups. 5. Write the name as single word. Use hyphens to separate numbers and letters (plus some hyphenated prefix) and commas to spearate numbers. Do not leave any spaces. Some examples showing the application of the rules of nomenclature are given below: various alkyl groups as substituents. To avoid any mistake. it is always better to write the complete structural formula.
