MCQs on Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure

 Except for noble gases, no other elements occur independently. The attractive force by which atoms, ions and molecules are held together is known as a chemical bond. The atom has a tendency to gain stability by completing their octet. Oppositely charged ions are held together by an ionic bond. In a covalent bond electron pairs are shared. Molecules are held together by weak Van der Waal’s interaction in a crystalline structure.

(a) CO2

Chloroplasts Questions With Answers

  The photosynthesis-conducting organelles which is the site where chlorophyll traps solar energy converting it and storing it in the energy storage molecules – NADPH and ATP are called Chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are functional in the calvin cycle performing a number of functions. It is a type of organelle referred to as a plastid. 1.

Parts Of Plants MCQs for NEET

  Plants are biotic factors of the ecosystem. They are photosynthetic, multicellular, eukaryotic in nature and are grouped distinctly into Kingdom Plantae. Contrary to the animals, plants possess a well-defined cell and specialized structures that are chiefly linked with cellular functionalities. These are the only living species who can manufacture/synthesize their own food. They are able to do so because of the presence of specialized structures in the cells of plants. Typically plant parts can be classified as the root system and the shoot system. 1. Which of the following factors promotes the opening of the stomatal aperture? (a) A decrease in guard cell turgidity (b) When the outer walls of the guard cells contracts (c) Radial orientation of the cellulose microfibrils in the cell wall of the guard cells (d) The longitudinal orientation of the cellulose microfibrils in the cell wall of guard cells Answer: (c) 2. Which of the following is made of dead cells? (a) Phloem (b) Phell...
