Biology Zoology Botany QUESTION #1392

In which part of the plant does the Calvin cycle occur?

Stroma of chloroplasts✔️
Thylakoid membrane
Cytoplasm
Nucleus

Correct Answer Logic:

The Calvin cycle (light-independent reactions / dark reactions) takes place in the stroma of chloroplasts — the fluid-filled space surrounding the thylakoids. Here, CO$_2$ is fixed using ATP and NADPH (produced in the light reactions on the thylakoid membranes) to synthesise glucose via the enzyme RuBisCO. The light reactions occur on the thylakoid membranes.

Business, Public administration and Policy QUESTION #10509

Question 3466

The judiciary serves as a check on government agencies primarily through:

Holding criminal trials for administrators who violate the law
Reviewing the legality of each policy proposal before enactment
Writing implementing rules on behalf of agencies
Interpreting agency mandates and reviewing the legality of agency actions✔️

Correct Answer Logic:

Courts check administrative agencies through judicial review — scrutinizing whether agency actions are intra vires (within legal authority), procedurally fair, and constitutionally sound. Courts do not pre-approve every agency rule; they respond to challenges brought before them. This power to interpret mandates and annul ultra vires actions is the judiciary's primary check on bureaucratic excess.

Mathematics QUESTION #11212

Question 3468

Which of the following is NOT an integral domain?

$\mathbb{Z}$
$\mathbb{Z}_7$
$\mathbb{Q}$
Set $M_2$ of $2\times 2$ matrices with integer entries✔️

Correct Answer Logic:

An integral domain is a commutative ring with unity and no zero divisors. The set $M_2(\mathbb{Z})$ of $2\times 2$ integer matrices is not commutative and has zero divisors (e.g. $\begin{pmatrix}1&0\\0&0\end{pmatrix}\begin{pmatrix}0&0\\0&1\end{pmatrix}=0$). Hence it is NOT an integral domain. $\mathbb{Z}$, $\mathbb{Z}_7$ (prime modulus), and $\mathbb{Q}$ are all integral domains.

Molecular Biology / Bioinformatics / Biochemistry QUESTION #11116

Question 3480

Which class of Cnidaria does NOT contain a polyp stage in its life cycle?

Anthozoa
Hydrozoa
Calcarea✔️
Scyphozoa

Correct Answer Logic:

Calcarea is a class of sponges (Porifera), not Cnidaria — and sponges do not have polyp stages at all. Among Cnidaria: Anthozoa (sea anemones, corals) exist only as polyps (no medusa stage); Hydrozoa and Scyphozoa have both polyp and medusa stages. Scyphozoa (jellyfish) are the 'true jellyfish' where the medusa is dominant. The question may contain an error in options; among Cnidaria, Anthozoa lack the medusa stage.
