Which one of the following statements with regard to embryonic development in humans is correct?
Cleavage divisions bring about considerable increase in the mass of protoplasm
In the second cleavage division, one of the two blastomeres usually divides a little sooner than the second
With more cleavage divisions, the resultant blastomeres become larger and large
Cleavage division results in a hollow ball of cells called morula
Assertion : Mast cells in the human body release excessive amounts of inflammatory chemicals which cause allergic reactions.
Reason : Allergens in the environment on reaching human body stimulate mast cells in certain individuals.

C.
If Assertion is true statement but Reason is false
Organochlorinc pesticides arc organic compounds or hydrocarbons to which are added several atoms of chlorine through the process called chlorination. Rate of degradation of organochlorines is very low. E.g. DDT, BHC.
Fenitrothion is an organophosphate pesticide which is the organic ester of phosphoric acid and its derivatives. These pesticides arc very toxic but are not persistant. It is an inhibitor used as an insecticide. It is cheap and used worldwide.
Assertion : Holoblastic cleavage with almost equal-sized blastomeres is a characteristic of placental animals.
Reason : Eggs of most mammals, including humans, are of centrolecithal type.
