Diffusion through alveoli: Alveoli are specific to multicellular organisms with lungs, not applicable to amoebas. Diffusion through book lung: Book lungs are structures found in certain arachnids eg spider. Through gill filament: Gill filaments are used in aquatic animals, not in unicellular organisms like amoeba. 3 / 50 3. resp44_During experiment to demonstrate respiration in small potted plant, the air coming from the plant jar turned caustic soda(lime water) milky. This suggests that the potted plant A) produced CoO2 B) produced oxygen C) removed oxygen from the air D) removed CO2 from the air Produced COâ‚‚ Explanation: The milky color indicates the production of carbon dioxide, which reacts with lime water. Removed COâ‚‚ from the air: Incorrect; it produced COâ‚‚. Produced oxygen: Incorrect; the experiment demonstrated COâ‚‚ production. Removed oxygen from the air: Incorrect; the focus is on COâ‚‚ 4 / 50 4. resp14_which of the following is not a means of gaseous exchange by terrestrial animals A) lenticel B) booklung C) gills D) tracheae Gills: These are specialized structures for gas exchange in aquatic animals, not terrestrial ones. Book lung: Found in some arachnids (like spiders), it is a respiratory structure for terrestrial animals. Tracheae: These are tubes in insects for gas exchange, used by terrestrial animals. Lenticel: These are small openings on the stems of plants, but they can also refer to structures in some terrestrial animals for gas exchange 5 / 50 5. resp4_Which of the following is a waste produce of respiration in animals A) water B) ATP C) oxygen D) carbondioxide Carbon dioxide is a waste product produced during the metabolic processes of cellular respiration. Oxygen: This is a substrate in aerobic respiration, not a waste product. ATP: ATP is the energy currency produced, not a waste.

Explanation: This is the correct pathway for inhaling oxygen: it enters through the nostrils, travels down the trachea, reaches the alveoli for gas exchange, enters the blood, and finally reaches the cells. Atmosphere, nostril, alveoli, trachea, blood, cells: Incorrect because the trachea should come before the alveoli. Atmosphere, trachea, nostril, blood, alveoli, cells: Incorrect sequence; nostrils come before the trachea. Atmosphere, nostril, trachea, blood, alveoli, cells: Incorrect because alveoli should come before blood; gas exchange happens in the alveoli, not in the blood. 10 / 50 10. resp2_The process of oxidation of food in the mitochondrium of cell to release energy is A) cellular combustion B) cellular transpiration C) cell reduction D) cellular respiration Cellular respiration is the metabolic process that converts food into usable energy (ATP) in the mitochondria. Cell reduction: This term does not apply to the oxidation of food; it typically refers to a decrease in the oxidation state of a substance. Cellular combustion: While similar, combustion typically refers to burning in the presence of oxygen, which is not the biological process of energy production. Cellular transpiration: Transpiration is related to the movement of water in plants, not the oxidation of food 11 / 50 11. resp11_which of the following undergoes direct external respiration by diffusion of carbondioxide and oxygen through the membrane into the organism without posessing a respiratory system A) spider B) snail C) fish D) hydra The organism that undergoes direct external respiration by diffusion of carbon dioxide and oxygen through the membrane, without possessing a specialized respiratory system, is hydra.

Bronchus: These are air passages that lead to the lungs but do not facilitate gas exchange themselves. Blood vessel: While blood vessels transport gases, they are not the site of gas exchange. Trachea: This is the windpipe that conducts air to the lungs but does not participate in gas exchange. 13 / 50 13. resp6_the organ of the body where atmospheric oxygen is taken in and carbondioxide is expelled is A) lung B) skin C) liver D) muscle Lungs are the primary organs for gas exchange in mammals, where oxygen is inhaled and carbon dioxide is exhaled. Liver: The liver processes nutrients and detoxifies substances but is not involved in gas exchange. Muscle: Muscles consume oxygen but do not function as the primary site for gas exchange.

This process, known as cutaneous respiration, allows frogs to exchange gases (oxygen and carbon dioxide) directly through their moist skin, especially when they are in water or in humid environments. Lizard: Primarily uses lungs for respiration and does not respire through the skin. Fish: Respire primarily through gills, not the skin. Spider: Uses book lungs or tracheae for respiration, not through the skin. 20 / 50 20. resp27_which of the following is not correct about cellular respiration A) in anearobic respiration oxygen is not available for respiration B) during cellular respiration oxygen is used to generate energy as ATP C) cellular respiration occurs in unicellular organisms only D) aerobic respiration generates 38 ATP while anaerobic respiration generates 2ATP Cellular respiration occurs in unicellular organisms only is not correct because cellular respiration occurs in both unicellular and multicellular organisms.

DNA: This is the genetic material and does not function as an energy carrier. NADH: While NADH is an electron carrier produced during cellular respiration, it is not the final energy currency; it is used to generate ATP.Oâ‚‚: Oxygen is a substrate/reactant in aerobic respiration, not a product of oxidation 23 / 50 23. resp30_which of the following prevent food from entering the airway in mammals A) epiglottis B) alveoli C) larynx D) valve The epiglottis is a flap that covers the trachea during swallowing to prevent food from entering the airway.

Explanation: Air passes from the nostrils to the pharynx and then to the larynx and trachea, not the esophagus (which is for food). During inspiration, the pressure in the thorax and the lungs reduces to let in air: Correct; this is how air enters. During expiration, the pressure in the thorax and lungs increases pushing out air: Correct; this is how air is expelled. During expiration, the diaphragm relaxes and ascends while the ribcage descends: Correct; this describes the mechanism of expiration 29 / 50 29. resp17_which of the following undergoes respiration through the skin and mouth A) frog B) earthworm C) lizard D) snake Frogs can respire through their skin (cutaneous respiration) as well as through their mouth (buccal respiration).
