Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). (a) is true statements but (R) is false. Both (A) and (R) are false Assertion: Evolution is not a directed process in the sense of determination. Reason : It is a stochastic process based on chance events in nature and chance mutation in the organisms. MA QB @c @pD Assertion: Any population has built in variation in characteristics. Reason : All the existing life forms share similarities and share common ancestors. Qa QB @c @pD Assertion: RNA was the first genetic material Reason : There is now enough evidence to suggest that essential life process evolved around RNA. Qa QB @c @pD Assertion: Evolution is not occuring at present. Reason : Evolution takes a very long time to occur. aa @B @c @pD Assertion: The light coloured months are now increasing in industrial area of moth. Reason : Use of oil & electricity and soot feltering devices have reduced the pollation. Qa QB @c @D Assertion: Darwin held that small favourable Variations formed the raw material for evolution. Reason : Darwin did not go into the factor which Produce variation. Ma @c QB @D 7. Assertion: New life comes only from the preexisting life Reason : Spontaneous generation of life under the present environment of earth is not possible. aa @B @c @)D 8. Assertion: Branching descent and Natural selection are the two key concepts of Darwinian theory or evolution. Reason : Darwinism is able to explain the presence of vestigeal organ. c Ma @B @c @pD 9. Assertion: All mammals like whales, bats, cheetah and human etc. share similarities in the pattern of bones of forelimbs. Reason : Eutherains shows good examples of divergent evolution. Ma @B @c @p 10. Assertion: Australian marsupials can be taken as an example of adaptive radiation. Reason : A number of marsupials, evolved from an ancestral stock, but all within the Australian island continent. aya QB @) ¢ @D 11. Assertion: Analogous structures are a result of convergent evolution. Reason : Different structures evolving for the same function and hence having similarity. aa QB @c @D 12. Assertion: The rate of appearance of new forms is linked to the life cycle or the life span of organisms. Reason : The organism with short life span have ability to produce more progenies in shorter time and that have chance to more exposure with nature. Ma QB @c @pD 418. Assertion: Disruptive selection changes the Population towards one particular direction,14, 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. Reason : This type of selection favours average sized individuals. Ma (2) B @c (4) D Assertion: A single mutation may produce a new species. Reason : Mutation may cause major variation in genetic material and these are inheritable. @a @B @c @D Assertion: Interspecific hybrids are usually sterile. Reason : Interspecific hybrids receive chromosomes from two different species. aa @B @c @p Assertion: The earliest organisms, were anaerobes, having arisen in a sea of organic molecules and were chemoheterotrophs. Reason : Before the supply of organic molecules was exhasted, some of the heterotrophs might have evolved into autotrophs. @a @B @c (4) D Assertion: There are chances of breakdown of isolating mechanism in allopatric speciation. Reason : Allopatric speciation is rapid process of speciation. Qa @B @c @D Assertion: Fitness is the end result of the ability to adapt and get selected by nature. Reason : Some organisms are better adapted to survive in an otherwise hostile environment, @A (2B @c @)D ‘Assertion: Among the primates, chimpanzee is the closest relative of the present day humans. : The banding pattern in the autosome Reason numbers 3 and 6 of man and chimpanzee is remarkably similar.

(AIMS 2005) MA (2) B @)¢ @D Assertion: Darwin's finches show a variety of suited for eating large seeds, flying insects and seeds. Reason : Ancestral seed-eating stock of Darwin! finches radiated out from South American mainland. different geographical areas of the Galapagos where they found competitor-free new habitats. (AIMS 2005) MA @B @)¢ @D Assertion: The earliest organisms that appeared the Earth were non-green and presumably anaerobes.
