If you suddenly run a lot, you experience cramps in the leg muscles. Can you think of the reason behind it?
Aerobic respiration performed, creates sugar alcohols in the muscles which causes the cramps
Anaerobic respiration performed, creates lactic acid in the muscles which causes the cramps
Sudden running results into tearing of ligaments in the muscles which causes the cramps

Three matured air dried bean seeds are taken and tied to a glass slide at three positions as shown. This slide is kept in a beaker containing water in a manner that the top seed is well above water, the middle one is just at the water level and the bottom one is deep in water. The experimental set up is left in a warm place for a few days. What will you notice by the end of the process?
Bottom and top seed will germinate and the middle one will not germinate.
The middle seed will germinate, the top and the bottom seeds will not germinate.
All the seeds will germinate.
Top and middle seed will germinate and the one at the bottom will not germinate.
