Which one of the following aspects is an exclusive characteristic of living things ?
{'A': 'Isolated metabolic reactions occur in vitro', 'B': 'increase in mass from inside only', 'C': 'Perception of events happening in the environment and their memory', 'D': 'Increase in mass by accumulation of material both on surface as well as internally'}
C
Sol: 1. Metabolism is the process by which all living things assimilate energy and use it for various purposes such as growth, movement, locomotion etc. This mechanism of metabolism is not shown by nonliving objects. However, some of the metabolic reactions can be carried out in a cell-free system or outside the cells....

{'A': 'The Darwin’s variation are large and do not require accumulate while mutation are small and need accumulation.', 'B': 'Variation are directional while mutation are directionless and they appear in all possible direction', 'C': 'The single step large mutation which can cause speciation was named as saltation by d...
A
Sol: The Darwin’s variations are small, which means they cannot bring sudden change in the life forms and they can bring change when they accumulates. While mutation are large and they bring sudden change even in the span of single generation. Mutation do not need accumulation.
