Which of the following is/are present in female cockroach?
A. Collateral gland
B. Mushroom gland
C. Spermatheca
D. Anal style
E. Phallic gland
Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
A. Collateral gland
B. Mushroom gland
C. Spermatheca
D. Anal style
E. Phallic gland
Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
- B and D only
- B and E only
- A only
- A and C only
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
In the female cockroach:
Collateral glands: These glands are present in female cockroaches. They secrete a sticky substance.
Spermatheca: This organ stores the sperm received from the male cockroach.
Mushroom glands: These glands secrete ootheca (egg case).
Anal styles: These are absent in female cockroaches. They are found only in male cockroaches.
Phallic glands: These are also absent in female cockroaches. They are found only in male cockroaches.
Therefore, collateral glands (A) and spermatheca (C) are present in the female cockroach.

Given below are two statements:
Statement I: Transfer RNAs and ribosomal RNA do not interact with mRNA.
Statement II: RNA interference (RNAi) takes place in all eukaryotic organisms as a method of cellular defence.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:- NEET (UG) - 2025
- RNA interference
- Given below are two statements: Statement I: In the RNA world, RNA is considered the first genetic material evolved to carry out essential life processes. RNA acts as a genetic material and also as a catalyst for some important biochemical reactions in living systems. Being reactive, RNA is unstable.
Statement II: DNA evolved from RNA and is a more stable genetic material. Its double helical strands being complementary, resist changes by evolving repair mechanisms. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:- NEET (UG) - 2025

- Two gases A and B are filled at the same pressure in separate cylinders with movable pistons of radii \(r_A\) and \(r_B\) respectively. On supplying an equal amount of heat to both the cylinders, their pressures remain constant and their pistons are displaced by 16 cm and 9 cm respectively. If the change in their internal energies is the same, then the ratio \(r_A / r_B\) is:
