Answer 1

32.b)feedback loops in protein synthesis.

Circadian clock gene produce proteins which generate circadian rhythm and inhibit transcriptional activity

through feedback loop while the rest options are stimulators and regulators of circadian oscillators.

33.d)suprachiasmatic nucleus

It is a group of hypothalamic nerve cells and functions as master circadian pacemakers while the other options

are not linked to circadian rythms.

34.d)BMAL1,PERIOD

In option a, both are activators; in option b, both are repressors; in option c, luciferase is a technique to study

circadian rythm and in option e, kodachrome is a film.

35.c) YES, retinal ganglion cells detect light and project to the master brain clock.

Option a and d are inaccurate. In option b,rods and cones contribute to sight.

36.b)independent

The rest are controlled by medial pathway.
