The mesophyll is the primary location for photosynthesis and is divided into two layers. the upper palisade layer and the spongy mesophyll layer.

Correct Answer: (2) embryo sac

34. Which protein is secreted by Infected host cells for the protection of any non-infected infected host cell [RRB RPF/RPSF SI Exam, 11.01.2019 Shift-III)]

Correct Answer: (3) Interferons
Solution:Interferons are small, natural or synthetic protein and glycoprotein cytokines that are produced by leucocytes, T-lymphocytes, and fibroblasts in response to infection and other biological-stimuli. Interferons stimulate the production of antiviral proteins in the cells which inhibit the synthesis of viral RNA and proteins. Interferons also regulate the growth, differentiation and functions of different types of immune cells in animals.

Correct Answer: (2) Rhodophyceae
Solution:Red algae, or Rhodophyta are one of the oldest groups of eukaryotic algae. The red algae form a distinct group characterized by having eukaryotic cells without flagella and centrioles, chloroplasts that lack external endoplasmic reticulum and contain unstacked (stroma) thylakoids, and use phycobiliproteins as accessory pigments, which give them their red color.
