  3.    Pyrrohea
  4.    Pernicious Anaemia
  5.    If assertion is false but reason is true.
 Discuss Question

The deficiency of vitamin-Ccausesscurvy”
Question 25.  Assertion  : Sucrose is a non-reducing sugar.
Reason :  It has a glycosidic linkage.
  1.    If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
  2.    If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
  3.    If assertion is true but reason is false.
  4.    If the assertion and reason both are false.
  5.    If assertion is false but reason is true.
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
:
A
Option (a)
Sucrose is a non reducing-sugar as it does not reduceTollen's or Fehling's reagent, due to absence of freealdehyde or ketone groups. It contains stableacetal orketal structure which cannot be opened into a free carboxyl group.
Sucrose is composed of alpha-D-glucopyranose unit and -D-fructofuranose unit. These units are joined bya-b-glycosidic linkage betweenC-1 of the glucose unit andC- 2 of the fructose unit.
 Assertion  : Sucrose Is A Non-reducing Sugar.Reason :  I...
Question 26. Energy is stored in our body most commonly in the form of
  1.    ATP
  2.    ADP
  3.    Fats
  4.    Carbohydrates
  5.    If assertion is false but reason is true.
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> ATP
:
A
Option (a)
The human body stores long term energy in lipids- these are fats, and oils. Lipids contain bonds that can be broken to release lots of energy. Short term energy is stored in carbohydrates, like sugars. An example of this is glucose. However, glucose is a large molecule and it is not the most efficient way for the body to quickly make energy. The cell’s most common form of energy is Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP).
Question 27. Glucose gives silver mirror with Tollen's reagent. It shows the presence of
  1.    An acidic group
  2.    An alcoholic group
  3.    A ketonic group
  4.    An aldehydic group
  5.    If assertion is false but reason is true.
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> An aldehydic group
:
D
Glucose(-CHO) +Tollen's reagent →Gluconic acid +Ag (Silver mirror)
Question 28. Purine derivative among the following bases is
  1.    Guanine
  2.    Cytosine
  3.    Thymine
  4.    Uracil
  5.    If assertion is false but reason is true.
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Guanine
:
A
Option (a)
Adenine and guanine arepurines.Purines are the larger of the two types of bases found in DNA.
The other 3 are pyrimidine bases. These are the smaller of the two.
Purine Derivative Among The Following Bases Is
Question 29. The chemical name of vitamin C is
  1.    Ascorbic acid
  2.    Citric acid
  3.    Folic acid
  4.    Nicotinic acid
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Ascorbic acid
:
A
Option (a)
The Chemical Name Of Vitamin C Is
Ascorbic acid (vitamin c)
Question 30. An example for a saturated fatty acid, present in nature is
  1.    Oleic acid
  2.    linoleic acid
  3.    Linolenic acid
  4.    Palmitic acid
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> Palmitic acid
:
D
Option (d)
Oleic acid C17H33COOH, linoleic acidC17H31COOH, linolenic acid C17H29COOH,palmitic acid C15H31COOH. Saturated monocarboxylic acids form a homologous series which has a general formula CnH2n+1COOH or CnH2nCOOH. Only palmitic acid follows this.
