Q:

In a plant cell, DNA may be found in

A) only in the nucleus and mitochondria. B) only in the nucleus and chloroplasts
C) in the nucleus, mitochondria, and chloroplasts. D) only in the nucleus.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) in the nucleus, mitochondria, and chloroplasts.

Explanation:

All of the genetic information in a cell was initially thought to be confined to the DNA in the chromosomes of the cell nucleus.

It is now known that small circular chromosomes, called extranuclear, or cytoplasmic, DNA, are located in two types of organelles found in the cytoplasm of the cell.

These organelles are the mitochondria in animal and plant cells and the chloroplasts in plant cells.

Chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) contains genes that are involved with aspects of photosynthesis and with components of the special protein-synthesizing apparatus that is active within the organelle.

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) contains some of the genes that participate in the conversion of the energy of chemical bonds into the energy currency of the cell—a chemical called adenosine triphosphate (ATP)—as well as genes for mitochondrial protein synthesis.

Q:

Which path through the carbon cycle is possible?

A) Animal ----> Plant ----> Atmosphere B) Plant ----> Animal ----> Atmosphere
C) Atmosphere ----> Plant ----> Animal D) Plant ----> Atmosphere -----> Animal
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Plant ----> Animal ----> Atmosphere

Explanation:

During daylight hours, plants capture carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and use it to make carbohydrates which is stored as starch in the plant. Animals feed on the plants and extract the carbohydrates through their digestive system. The carbohydrates, namely glucose, are used by the animals for production of ATP through cellular respiration.

 

Cellar respiration in the animals produces carbon dioxide as a waste product. The carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere, from where it is again captured by plants and the cycle is repeated.

 

Hence, option B) Plant ----> Animal ----> Atmosphere is the path possible in carbon cycle.

Q:

Can 8259 he interfaced with 8085 via the trap pin?

Answer

Yes... so if 8529 gives interrupt then it will be serviced immediately but since INTA pin is left hanging the INSR bit will never be set.. and so whenever my interrupt occurs depending upon priority it will be serviced.. also the ISR address for all interrupts will be same ie 0024H..


Interrupt via trap is nonmaskable, so it will be serviced immediately.
