Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs)

1. Exchange of genetic material takes place in

(a) vegetative reproduction
(b) asexual reproduction
(c) sexual reproduction
(d) budding
Ans. Option C is correct.
Explanation - Asexual reproduction involves single parents. Vegetative reproduction
and budding are the types of asexual. In Asexual reproduction, single parents
contribute the genes. Thus, no exchange of genetic material takes place.
Whereas in sexual reproduction, genes are contributed by two parents. Hence, the
exchange of genetic material takes place.

2. Two pink colored flowers on crossing resulted in 1 red, 2 pink and 1 white
flower progeny. The nature of the cross will be
(a) double fertilization
(b) self-pollination
(c) cross fertilization
(d) no fertilization
Ans. Option C is correct.
Explanation - The term ‘cross’ in the question indicates cross fertilization. When a
pollen grain is transferred from one flower to another of the same species. This is
called cross fertilization.

This is an example of incomplete dominance in which both alleles express themselves.

3. A cross between a tall plant (TT) and short pea plant (tt) resulted in progeny
that were all tall plants because
(a) tallness is the dominant trait
(b) shortness is the dominant trait
(c) tallness is the recessive trait
(d) height of pea plant is not governed by gene ‘T’ or ‘t’
Ans. Option C is correct.
Explanation - In monohybrid cross, dominant character is the only character expressed
in the first generation of progeny. In other words, recessive allele expressions are
suppressed by the dominant alleles.

4. Which of the following statement is incorrect?

(a) For every hormone there is a gene.
(b) For every protein there is a gene.
(c) For production of every enzyme there is a gene.
(d) For every molecule of fat there is a gene
Ans. Option D is correct.
Explanation - Hormone and enzymes are made up of proteins and formation of any
particular protein is also controlled by a particular gene. But fat formation does not
depend on genes. Hence, all other options are correct.

would develop into a male child.

Class X Biology www.vedantu.com 3

8. A zygote which has an X-chromosome inherited from the father will develop
into
(a) boy
(b) girl
(c) X- chromosome does not determine the sex of a child
(d) either boy or girl
Ans. Option B is correct.
Explanation - As X-chromosome from the father will mate the X-chromosome of the
mother resulting in XX-chromosome of the child as the 23rd pair. Thus, the child will
be a girl.

9. Select the incorrect statement

(a) Frequency of certain genes in a population change over several generations
resulting in evolution
(b) Reduction in weight of the organism due to starvation is genetically controlled
(c) Low weight parents can have heavy weight progeny
(d) Traits which are not inherited over generations do not cause evolution
Ans. Option B is correct.
Explanation - Weight loss/gain depends on external factors and are not carried
genetically. This is an acquired trait.

(b) (i) and (iii)
(c) (ii), (iii) and (iv)
(d) (i), (ii) and (iii)
Ans. Option A is correct.
Explanation - Evolution takes place due to change in genetic material which means no
change in genetic material, no evolution would occur.
Sexual reproduction cannot occur without mating which means no exchange of genetic
material would occur. Hence, (iii) and (iv) are incorrect.
DNA undergoes significant changes in germ cells along with time and change in
number of chromosomes which could be due to deletion and deletion resulting in
mutation. These two play significant role in the rise of new species.

them represent the correct homologous structures?
(a) Carrot and potato
(b) Carrot and tomato
(c) Radish and carrot
(d) Radish and potato
Ans. Option C is correct.
Explanation - Homologous structures are those which are same in origin and structure
but perform similar or different functions in organisms.
Radish and Carrot are homologous structures because both perform the function of
food storage and both are modified roots.
Potato is a modified stem whereas tomato is a fruit.

Class X Biology www.vedantu.com 6

Explanation- Homologous structures are those which are same in origin and structure
but perform similar or different functions in organisms.
Tendril of a pea plant and phylloclade of Opuntia are modified leaves which means
they are similar in origin. Tendril wraps around the anchor and provides support to pea
plants whereas phylloclades help in photosynthesis in opuntia.

14. If the fossil of an organism is found in the deeper layers of earth, then we can
predict that
(a) the extinction of organism has occurred recently
(b) the extinction of organism has occurred thousands of years ago
(c) the fossil position in the layers of earth is not related to its time of extinction
(d) time of extinction cannot be determined
Ans. Option B is correct.
Explanation - Fossils are the remaining non-degraded parts of living beings found
deposited within the rocks. The layer of rocks helps in deciding the age of fossils. The
fossils found in deeper layers are older compared to the ones found in the upper layers.

15. Which of the following statements is not true with respect to variation?
(a) All variations in a species have equal chance of survival
(b) Change in genetic composition results in variation
(c) Selection of variants by environmental factors forms the basis of evolutionary
processes.
(d) Variation is minimum in asexual reproduction
Ans. Option A is correct.
Explanation - Nature only selects the fittest variation among all kinds of variations
which are useful for survival of organisms.

16. A trait in an organism is influenced by

Class X Biology www.vedantu.com 7

(a) paternal DNA only
(b) maternal DNA only
(c) both maternal and paternal DNA
(d) neither by paternal nor by maternal DNA
Ans. Option C is correct
Explanation - Since DNA in an organism is contributed by two parents during
reproduction, hence traits are influenced by both maternal and paternal DNA.

17. Select the group which shares maximum number of common characters
(a) two individuals of a species
(b) two species of a genus
(c) two genera of a family
(d) two genera of two families
Ans. Option C is correct.
Explanation - Species is the lowest taxon and hence members of the same species
share the maximum number of common characters.

18. According to the evolutionary theory, formation of a new species is generally

due to
(a) sudden creation by nature
(b) accumulation of variations over several generations
(c) clones formed during asexual reproduction
(d) movement of individuals from one habitat to another
Ans. Option B is correct.
Explanation - Whenever there is a variation in DNA a new species is formed. But
making clones and movement from one habitat to another does not result in DNA
variation. Moreover, the Theory of Sudden Creation was disapproved by the scientists.

19. From the list given below, select the character which can be acquired but not
inherited
(a) color of eye
(b) color of skin
(c) size of body
(d) nature of hair
Ans. Option C is correct.
Explanation -A person can become fat or thin because of diet. A person can develop a
muscular body through regular exercise. But these characters cannot be inherited in
the next generation. A character is inherited when genetic variation accumulates in
DNA.

20. The two versions of a trait (character) which are brought in by the male and
female gametes are situated on
(a) copies of the same chromosome
(b) two different chromosomes
(c) sex chromosomes
(d) any chromosome
Ans. Option A is correct.
Explanation - Copies of the same chromosome contain the same alleles for a trait.
When gamete is transferred from the male and female, gametes pair up to form a
chromosomal pair which combines the two alleles of a trait from both the parents.

21. Select the statements that describe characteristics of genes

(i) genes are specific sequence of bases in a DNA molecule
(ii) a gene does not code for proteins

(a) one
(b) two
(c) three
(d) four
Ans. Option A is correct.
Explanation - human contains 23 pair of chromosome in which 22 are autosomes
where as 1 pair is sex chromosomes. In Zygote, one sex gamete is transferrer from
male parent and other from female parent.

24. The theory of evolution of species by natural selection was given by

(a) Mendel
(b) Darwin
(c) Morgan
(d) Lamarck
Ans. Option B is correct.
Explanation- The theory of evolution of species by natural selection was given by
Charles Darwin who was a naturalist. He stated that only organisms which are well
adapted to their environment will survive, rest will be eliminated.

25. Some dinosaurs had feathers although they could not fly but birds have
feathers that help them to fly. In the context of evolution this means that
(a) reptiles have evolved from birds
(b) there is no evolutionary connection between reptiles and birds
(c) feathers are homologous structures in both the organisms
(d) birds have evolved from reptiles

Class X Biology www.vedantu.com 11

Ans. Option D is correct
Explanation- Birds have evolved from reptiles because dinosaurs are reptiles which
develop feathers but could not use them for flying. It shows feathers developed later
which were adapted by birds for flying.

Short Answer Questions

26. How is the sex of a newborn determined in humans?

Ans. The somatic cell contains 23 pairs of chromosomes. The23rd chromosome pair
in humans constitutes the sex chromosome.
The 23rd pair chromosome in a female is XX, whereas the genetic makeup of a male
is XY. The female is homogametic, forms X - gamete while male is heterogametic,
forms X - gamete and Y- gamete.
During fertilization, when sperm carrying X chromosome fuses with egg having X
chromosome, results in female child
Whereas if sperm carries Y chromosome and fuses with egg, results in male child. The
chromosome responsible for sex determination in a male is Y chromosome.

27. Do genetic combination of mothers play a significant role in determining the

sex of a new born?
Ans. No
The 23rd chromosome pair in humans constitutes the sex chromosome.
The 23rd pair chromosome in a female is XX, whereas the genetic makeup of a male
is XY. The female forms one gamete- X chromosomal gamete. Hence, All children
will inherit an ‘X’ chromosome from their mother regardless of whether they are boys
or girls.
The chromosome responsible for sex determination in a male is Y chromosome. The
male contains XY sex chromosome in germ cells.
The transfer of X gametes from the father and X chromosome from mother fuse to
form zygote with XX chromosome, is responsible for Femaleness in a child.
Thus, women are not responsible for giving birth to a girl child.

28. Mention three important features of fossils which help in the study of
evolution.
Ans. (a) Fossils preserve the remaining part of ancient species which helps in study of
their morphological structure.
(b) Fossils help in establishing evolutionary relationships among organisms and help
in establishing the common ancestors among them.
(c) The fossil helps in determining the age of a species, giving information about the
time period in which that species lived.

29. Why do all the gametes formed in human females have an X chromosome?
Ans. Human females have the two X chromosomes called sex chromosomes as 23rd
pair of chromosome. During cell division, one X chromosome enters in each gamete.
Thus, all female gametes contain X-chromosome.

30. In human beings, the statistical probability of getting either a male or female
child is 50 - 50. Give a suitable explanation.
Ans. The sex of an infant is determined by the type of sex chromosome contributed by
the male gamete.
In male, sperm carries either X or Y chromosomes. Thus, the probability of sperm to
carry each type of chromosome is 50%. Hence, the statistical probability of getting
either male or female child is 50-50% which depends on the male gamete carrying X
or Y chromosome. Let's understand this with cross.

31. A very small population of a species faces a greater threat of extinction than a
larger population. Provide a suitable genetic explanation.
Ans. A small population of a species faces a greater threat of extinction than a larger
population. Following are the reasons-
(a) Inbreeding - Inbreeding in a small population results in the least number of
variations, weakening their adaptivity according to environment.
(b) Genetic drift - Any sudden changes in a small population i.e, loss of gene pool
from a population is called genetic drift which has potential to cause the extinction of
the entire small population.
(c) Inbreeding depression - It lowers the population survival rate and rate of
reproduction, causing negative population growth which is further detrimental to the
survival of the species.

32. What are homologous structures? Give an example. Is it necessary that

homologous structures always have a common ancestor?
Ans. Structures which have a common basic structure but perform different functions
are called homologous structures.
E.g.- The fore limbs of amphibians, reptiles, and mammals.

Class X Biology www.vedantu.com 14

 For example - the forelimbs of frogs and dogs are homologous structures, as they are
composed of similar bones which are humorous, radio-ulna, carpal and metacarpals.
The forelimbs of frogs are adapted for jumping movement, while the forelimbs of
dogs are adapted for walking and running.
Yes, it is necessary that homologous structures always have a common ancestor, we
can observe the morphological similarities among the homologous structures.

33. Does the occurrence of diversity of animals on earth suggest their diverse
ancestry also? Discuss this point in the light of evolution.
Ans. The animals have a vast diversity in structures; they may not have a common
ancestry, because common ancestry limits the extent of diversity. But we can group
the animals into different groups and subgroups; on the basis of certain common
characteristics. As many of these diverse animals are inhabiting the same habitat, their
evolution by geographical isolation and speciation is also not likely. Thus, a common
ancestor for all the animals is not the likely theory.

34. Give the pair of contrasting traits of the following characters in pea plant and
mention which is dominant and recessive (i) yellow seed (ii) round seed.
Ans.
(a) yellow — dominant
green — recessive
(b) round — dominant
wrinkled — recessive

35. Why did Mendel choose pea plant for his experiments?
Ans.
(a) Easy to grow
(b) Short life span
(c) Easily distinguishable characters

Class X Biology www.vedantu.com 15

(d) Larger size of flower
(e) Self pollinated
(f) Cross-Pollination can be done easily

36. A woman has only daughters. Analyze the situation genetically and provide a
suitable explanation.
Ans. The woman produces an ova with ‘X’ chromosome.
The male produces sperms with X and Y chromosome which determines the sex of the
child. The statistical probability of getting either male or female child is 50-50%
which depends on the male gamete carrying X or Y chromosome.
Here, the X-chromosome of sperm combines with the X-chromosome of egg resulting
in daughters. This proves that only X chromosomal gamete is transferred from father
during fertilization.

Long Answer Questions

37. Does geographical isolation of individuals of a species lead to formation of a

new species? Provide a suitable explanation.
Ans. Yes, geographical isolation leads to speciation i.e formation of new species due
to development of unique characteristics when separated from a group within a
species.
The geographical isolation imposes limits to sexual reproduction due to separation
from the group. It gradually leads to genetic drift.
Geographical isolation encourages inbreeding among themselves and generates new
variations. The accumulation of these variations through one generation to next
generations may ultimately lead to speciation.

38. Bacteria have a simpler body plan when compared with human beings. Does
it mean that human beings are more evolved than bacteria? Provide a suitable
explanation.

Class X Biology www.vedantu.com 16

Ans. Evolution is defined as the accumulation of variations along the period of time. It
is a point of debate which depends on the way we evaluate evolution. If Body
complexity is a parameter to study evolution then humans are more evolved than
bacteria. Bacteria are unicellular and have cellular level organization whereas humans
are multicellular and have organ level organization.
But complexity is not the only measure to take into consideration, the ability of
survival is also considered. According to which, bacteria are more evolved. Human
beings are living only on land, but adapt to live on other places by taking artificial
facilities. Moreover, in extreme environmental conditions, human beings are not
adapted to withstand extreme climatic conditions. On the other hand, bacteria are
known to be found in extreme environmental conditions such as Sulphur spring,
hydrothermal vents, crater of volcano, etc. From this point of view, bacteria can be
considered as more evolved than human beings.

39. All the human races like Africans, Asians, Europeans, Americans and others
might have evolved from a common ancestor. Provide a few evidences in support
of this view.
Ans. All the human races have a large number of common characters. The list of
common characters can be very long but we can make a shorter list -Similar size of
brain,
Bipedal locomotion,
Hair of body.
Ability to handle tools.
Ability to communicate using language.
Highly complex social behaviour.
Same body design.
All these characters show a common ancestor for all human races. Moreover, all
human beings are able to interbreed and keep them under the same species.

40. Differentiate between inherited and acquired characters. Give one example
for each type.

Class X Biology www.vedantu.com 17

Ans.

Inherited Characters Acquired characters

Inherited characteristics are those Acquired characteristics are those
which affect genetic material of an characteristics which are acquired

accumulated in genetic material. adaptations.

These characteristics can be transferred These changes do not affect genetic

generations. passed onto offspring.

Example- Colors of eye, color of skin Example- Size of the body, Muscle
and nature of hair size

41. Give reasons why acquired characters are not inherited.

Ans. Acquired characteristics are those characteristics which are acquired during
lifetime by experiences and adaptations. Let us take the example of a certain cricketer
who is an excellent batsman. He may become an excellent batsman because of various
reasons like his keen interest in the game, timely support from his family and friends,
proper coaching at the right age and timely selection in the cricket team. The
cricketing ability could be acquired by the batsman the way he responded to all the
challenges and opportunities. But all this training will not change his genetic makeup.
Hence, his cricketing skills would not be passed onto the next generation.
In fact, acquired characters alter phenotypes of an individual. It has no effect on
genetic makeup. A character can only be inheritable when it changes the genotype of
an individual. Hence, acquired characters are not inherited.

42. Evolution has exhibited a greater stability of molecular structure when

compared with morphological structures. Comment on the statement and justify
your opinion.
Ans. The visible structures in an organism are called morphological structures.
Morphological structures can be observed physically by us. Molecular structures are
the structure of biomolecules such as DNA, protein and carbohydrates are the integral
components of organisms.

Class X Biology www.vedantu.com 18

This diversity is possible because of diversity in morphological structures in
organisms which shows the morphological structures are least stable.
Over the course of time, the biomolecular structure has not changed in organisms but
the morphological changes have been observed. The DNA is the same in a human and
in e rodents such as rats . The structure of protein is the same in a bird and in a fungi.
This shows that evolution has exhibited a greater stability of molecular structure when
compared with morphological structure.

47. Give reasons for the appearance of new combinations of characters in the F 2
progeny.
Ans. During Mendel’s experiment with dihybrid cross, it was seen that all the plants in
the F1 generation produced round and yellow seeds. However, in the F2 generation,
phenotypes of different seeds were different. This shows a new combination of
characters in the F2 generation.
Out of round and wrinkled texture, round texture is the dominant character. Similarly,
out of yellow and green colors, yellow color is the dominant character. In the F1
generation, all the plants produced round yellow seeds because of the dominance of
characters. But the genotype of all plants was of mixed characters, i.e..RrYy. This
happened because of the Law of Independent Assortment. The gene for seed texture
behaved independently of the gene for seed color.
Due to this, the F2 generation showed different combinations of genotypes, viz.
RRYY, RRYy, RrYY, RrYy, rrYY, rrYy, rryy. This can be shown by following
punnett square
