15. Â This is an incorrect statement
 rhodopsin is the purplish-red protein situated in rods only
Retinal is a derivative of Vitamin C
Retinal is the light-absorbing part of visual photopigments
the rods in the retina have rhodopsin, a photopigment while cones have three different photopigments
16. The fovea is the mammalian eye is the centre of the visual field wherein
the optic nerve exits the eye
only rods are found
 more rods than cones are found
 no rods but a high density of cones occur
17. In the human eye, the photosensitive compound is composed of
guanosine and retinol

opsin and retinol
opsin and retinal
18. Â The eye lens is
 Concave
Convex
Biconcave
Biconvex
19. The persistence of vision for the human eye is
1/6th of a second
 1/10th of a second
 1/16th of a second
1/18th of a second
20. Â What does the tapetum lucidum do?
it is the coloured part of the eye
gives animals night vision
transparent jelly-like fluid
it is the area where the optic never attaches
21. The innermost layer and the most delicate layer of the eyeball where the photoreceptors are located are
Chloroid
Sclera
 Cornea
Retina
22. This part of the eye dilates and contracts based on the environment
Sclera
Cornea
Lens
Pupil
23. Â The transparent lens in the human eye is held in its place by
smooth muscles attached to the iris
ligaments attached to the ciliary body
ligaments attached to the iris
 smooth muscles attached to the ciliary body
24. The eye of octopus and the eye of cats show different patterns of structure, yet they perform similar functions. This is an example of
Homologous organs that have evolved due to convergent evolution
Homologous organs that have evolved due to divergent evolution
Analogous organs that have evolved due to convergent evolution
Analogous organs that have evolved due to divergent evolution
25. Â Which of these colours is least scattered by dust, fog, smoke?
Yellow
Red
Blue
Violet

28. Limitations of ecological pyramids involve all these statements, except
they assume a simple food chain and do not consider food webs
in the ecological pyramids, saprotrophs are not given any place

30. During ecological succession
types and numbers of animals remain constant
establishment of a new biotic community is fast in its primary phase
