Other name of Glycolysis
- A.
  
  Hexosesdiphosphate pathway
- B.
  
  TCA
- C.
  
  HMP shunt
- D.
  
  Glyconeogenisis
- E.
  
  Gall pathway
Correct Answer
A. HexosesdipHospHate pathway

Explanation
Glycolysis is also known as the Hexosesdiphosphate pathway. This pathway involves the breakdown of glucose into two molecules of pyruvate, producing a small amount of ATP and NADH in the process. It is the first step in cellular respiration and occurs in the cytoplasm of cells. The term "Hexosesdiphosphate pathway" refers to the fact that hexose sugars, such as glucose, are converted into diphosphate molecules during this process.

  Robert Koch
- E.
  
  Pollender
Correct Answer
B. Selman Walksman

Explanation
Selman Waksman is credited with coining the term "antibiotic." He was a Ukrainian-American biochemist and microbiologist who discovered several important antibiotics, including streptomycin. Waksman's research and discoveries revolutionized the field of medicine by providing effective treatments for bacterial infections. His work earned him the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1952.

Correct Answer
D. Fragnance

Explanation
The term "aromatic" refers to a substance or compound that has a pleasant and distinctive smell, commonly known as fragrance. It does not necessarily imply any of the other options provided in the question, such as being cyclic, planar, conjugated, or specifically related to benzene. Aromatic compounds are often used in perfumes, essential oils, and other scented products due to their pleasant odor.

  6
- C.
  
  4
- D.
  
  2+1
- E.
  
  2+4
Correct Answer
A. 5

Explanation
There are five different types of immunoglobulins (also known as antibodies) present in the human body: IgG, IgA, IgM, IgD, and IgE. Each type has a specific function in the immune response. IgG is the most abundant and provides long-term protection against infections. IgA is found in mucosal areas and helps to prevent pathogens from entering the body. IgM is the first antibody produced during an infection. IgD is involved in the activation of B cells. IgE is associated with allergic reactions. Therefore, the correct answer is 5.

Power house of cell is considered as
- A.
  
  Mitochondria
- B.
  
  EPR
- C.
  
  Golgi complex
- D.
  
  Ribosomes
- E.
  
  Mesomers
Correct Answer
A. Mitochondria

Explanation
Mitochondria are considered the powerhouses of the cell because they are responsible for producing the majority of the cell's energy in the form of ATP through cellular respiration. They have their own DNA and can self-replicate, suggesting an evolutionary origin from a symbiotic relationship with bacteria. Mitochondria have a double membrane structure and contain enzymes and proteins that play a crucial role in the production of ATP, which is essential for various cellular processes and activities.
