Sample Biomolecules Questions

  1. When a living tissue (such as a plant leaf) is ground in trichloroacetic acid (Cl3CCOOH) using a mortar and pestle and strained through cheesecloth, two fractions are obtained. Which of the following statements correctly describes these fractions?
    • A. The filtrate contains the acid-insoluble fraction consisting of micromolecules with molecular weights ranging from 18 to 800 Daltons.
    • B. The retentate contains the acid-soluble pool comprising biomacromolecules with molecular weights greater than 10,000 Daltons.
    • C. The acid-soluble pool represents the cytoplasmic composition containing molecules with molecular weights of 18 to 800 Daltons approx.
    • D. Lipids are present in the acid-soluble pool because their molecular weight is strictly less than 800 Daltons.
  2. Given below are two statements regarding elemental analysis of living tissue: Statement I: Ash analysis is performed by fully burning living tissue to oxidize all carbon compounds to gaseous forms (CO2, water vapour). Statement II: Inorganic elements like calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, and phosphate are found in the acid-insoluble fraction (retentate). In light of the above statements, choose the correct answer:
    • A. Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
    • B. Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
    • C. Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
    • D. Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
  3. Assertion (A): Lipids, despite having molecular weights not exceeding 800 Daltons, are isolated in the acid-insoluble macromolecular fraction. Reason (R): Lipids form cell membranes and vesicles which break into water-insoluble fragments and pass into the retentate during grinding with trichloroacetic acid. In light of the above statements, choose the correct answer:
    • A. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
    • B. Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is NOT the correct explanation of (A)
    • C. (A) is true but (R) is false
    • D. (A) is false but (R) is true
  4. Which of the following qualitative chemical tests is INCORRECTLY matched with its reagent and structural basis of color change?
    • A. Iodine Test - Forms helical secondary structure complex with amylose in starch giving deep blue-black color
    • B. Benedict's Test - Reducing sugars reduce cupric ions (Cu2+) to cuprous oxide (Cu2O) precipitate
    • C. Biuret Test - Reacts specifically with individual free amino acids to give a violet color
    • D. Xanthoproteic Test - Concentrated nitric acid reacts with aromatic amino acids (tyrosine, tryptophan) to yield yellow color
  5. Statement I: Fehling's test involves reduction of Fehling's solution A (aqueous copper sulphate) and Fehling's solution B (alkaline sodium potassium tartrate / Rochelle salt) by reducing sugars. Statement II: Sucrose gives a positive brick-red precipitate with Fehling's reagent directly without prior acid hydrolysis. Choose the correct option:
    • A. Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
    • B. Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
    • C. Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
    • D. Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
