The energy required for active transport is often provided by the hydrolysis of ATP. In plants we can study the dependence of the membrane potential on ATP by observing the effect of cyanide (CN–), What wil be the effect of cyanide(Cn-),

a.) Cyanide rapidly poisons the mitochondria as ATP synthesis is inhibited, the membrane potential falls below -50mV

b.) Cyanide inhibits the electron transport but not inhibit the ATP synthesis, the membrane potential positive

 c.) Cyanide inhibits the electrogenic ion transport the pH of the external medium increases while the cytosol becomes acidic because H+ remains inside the cell

 d.) Cyanide inhibits the electrogenic ion transport the pH of the external medium acidic while the cytosol becomes alkaline because H+ remains outside of the cell

Which of the following statements regarding effect of cyanide is CORRECT?

Given below are some behaviors strategies.

A) Fixed action pattern, complex sequence of behavior, Once released and continuous to completion, even when there is change in surrounding environment

B)  natural selection select that territorial behavior that is benefit is greater than cost 

C) Imprinting, a form of learning in which a very young animal fixes its attention on the first object with which it has visual, auditory, or tactile experience

D) Donor benefits at a cost to the recipient, the behavior is altruistic; when the recipient benefits at a cost to the donor, the behavior is selfish.

#Unit 1. Molecules and their Interaction Relevant to Biology

The structure of a protein is known from X-ray diffraction studies which gave 30% - helix, 50% -sheet and 20% random coil. Circular dichroism (CD) measurements gave 50% -helix, 40% -sheet and 10% random coil. What could not be a possible explanation for these observations.
