Numerous monosaccharides

None of the above is correct.

The collection of all the genetic information of an individual is called the:

            A. gene

            B. genome

            C. chromosome

            D. ovum

            E. None of the above is correct.

The normal fasting plasma[glucose] ranges from:

            a. 35 - 55mg%

            b. 55 - 75mg%

            c. 350 - 550mg%

            d. 2.0 – 7.0mg%

            e. 70 – 120mg%

Answer 1

The structure (consisting of a fatty-waxy substance) which separates theintracellular compartment from theextracellular compartment is called the Cell Membrane; fundamental molecules that compose the Cell Membrane inclde the Phospholipids and Protein.

Lipids are arranged in a bilayer and proteins can be of two types integral Protein and membrane protein.

Option C is correct

The genetic material (DNA) stored within each and every cell of the body is organized into: Chromosomes. These are the thread like structures containing the DNA.

The collection of all the genetic information of an individual is called the: Genome.

The normal fasting plasma[glucose] ranges from: 70-120mg%
