This document is a model test for the course Principles of Genetics at PGP College of Agricultural Sciences. It contains multiple choice and true/false questions about genetics, cells, and cell structures. The test has three parts - Part A contains 15 multiple choice questions about genetics and cell structures. Part B contains 15 true/false questions about eukaryotic cells, cell organelles, and the cell cycle. Part C asks students to answer 5 of 6 short answer questions about topics like cytoplasmic structures, plasma membrane functions, mitochondria functions, the cell cycle, chromoplasts, and the significance of mitosis.
