               Q.1     Identify the correct sequence.
                       (a) Late tadpole- Early tadpole- Adult frog - Egg
                       (b) Egg- Adult frog- Late tadpole- Early tadpole
                       (c) Egg- Late tadpole- Early tadpole- Adult frog
                       (d) Egg- Early tadpole- Late tadpole- Adult frog

               Q.2     Mineral required for the process of metamorphosis is -
                       (a) Iodine
                       (b) Iron
                       (c) Sodium
                       (d) Potassium

               Q.3     Deficiency of iodine leads to-
                       (a) Change in voice.
                       (b) Increase in height.
                       (c) Goitre in humans.
                       (d) Development of sex organs

               Q.4     What is the role of iodine?
                       (a) Production of adrenaline.
                       (b) Production of thyroxine.
                       (c) Production of insulin.
                       (d) Production of Growth hormone.

               Q.5     Identify the incorrect statement-
                         I.   The conversion of larva into an adult by undergoing through drastic
                              changes is called metamorphosis.
                        II.   Metamorphosis in frog is controlled by thyroxine.
                        III.   Metamorphosis in frog is controlled by insect hormones.

                       (a) I
                       (b) III
                       (c) II,III
                       (d) I,II,III
