A light pipe known as optical fibre used to facilitate visual examination of internal organs is based on:
- A scattering of light
- B refraction of light
- C total internal reflection
- D diffraction of light
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) total internal reflection
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Optical fibers guide light by repeatedly reflecting it off the inner walls at angles greater than the critical angle. This process, called total internal reflection, allows light to travel through the fiber with minimal loss, even when it is bent. C) total internal reflection

- Read the passage carefully and answer the questions based on the passage:
Pollen pistil interaction involves all events from the landing of pollen grains on the stigma until the pollen tube enters the embryo sac (when the pollen is compatible). When a pollen tube grows through the style and enters into the ovules, it finally discharges two male gametes in one of the synergids. Syngamy and triple fusion are two fusion events occur in angiosperms. Thus, angiosperms exhibit double fertilization. The products of these fusions are the diploid zygote and triploid primary endosperm nucleus. Zygote develops into embryo and primary endosperm cell forms the endosperm tissue. The developing embryo passes through different stages before maturation.
Formation of diploid zygote is a result of:CUET 2025 Easy - Match List I with List II
