Q.
6 Read the following paragraph and identify the disease.
Today, her child became one and half year old.
However, that child does not seem to be healthy and happy. It was continuously
crying and gradually becoming weak. It has shortness of breath. Its nails have
become blue.
Ans.
The heart of the child is not functioning properly. Bluish nails show lack of
oxygen, thus the baby may be suffering also from respiratory problems.
Q
7. Give scientific reasons.
(1) Upward and downward movement of diaphragm
occurs consecutively,
Ans.
The breathing movements are possible due to contraction and relaxation of the
diaphragm. The rib muscles also help in these movements. When the ribs rise and
diaphragm is lowered at the same time, then there is a decrease in pressure on
lungs. This causes movement of air into the lungs at the time of inhalation. On
the other hand, when ribs come back to their normal position and diaphragm is
risen, then pressure on the lungs increases. This causes movement of the air
out of the body through the nose in the form of exhalation. These movements are
possible only due to consecutive upward and downward movement of the diaphragm.
(2)
Human blood is red coloured.
Ans.
The red colour of human blood is due to haemoglobin which is a red coloured
conjugated protein with iron that is present on the red blood cells. Therefore,
it looks red.
(3)
Blood donation is considered to be superior of all donations.
Ans.
Blood cannot be manufactured by any artificial chemical process. The only way
to obtain blood is by donations of blood from a live donor. Blood is needed at
times of emergency. The life of person can be saved if timely blood transfusion
is given to the needy victim or a patient. Since such donation can save a
valuable human life, it is called superior of all donations.
(4)
Person with 'O' blood group is considered as 'universal donor'.
Ans.
Person with 'O' blood group does not have
any antigen on his/her RBCs. The '0' type blood thus cannot cause clotting
reactions in the body of the recipients. Such persons with 'O' blood group can
donate blood to any person having any blood group therefore they are considered
as 'universal donor'.
(5)
Food must have limited amount of salts.
Ans. More salt in diet means more sodium ions. These extra
sodium salts cause rise in blood pressure. Such condition is called
hypertension. This condition can be dangerous and fatal in some cases.
Therefore, one must keep control over sodium content of the food.
Q
8. Answer the following:
1.Explain the
functional correlation of circulatory system with respiratory, digestive and
excretory system.
Ans.
(1) Three systems viz. respiratory. digestive and circulatory always work in
coordination
(2)
Digestive system helps in breaking down complex food molecules into simple
soluble nutrients at the end of the digestion process.
(3)
The soluble nutrients are absorbed in the circulating blood in the villi of the
intestine.
(4)
The blood carries these nutrients to each cell during its circulation.
(5)
The respiratory system helps the oxygen from the air to be absorbed in the
blood.
(6)
This process takes place in alveolus present in lungs. The oxygen is absorbed
in the blood and through haemoglobin it is taken to every cell of the body.
At
the same time the unwanted carbon dioxide produced in each cell is given out in
a process of gaseous exchange.
(7)
The soluble nutrients, and chiefly glucose is metabolized with the help of
oxygen producing energy.
Thus,
all the three systems bring about coordinated functions to keep the body alive.
(2) Explain the
structure and function of human blood.
Ans.
I. Structure, i.e.
components of the human blood : Human blood is a fluid connective tissue
consisting of blood plasma and blood corpuscles suspended in it.
(1)
Plasma : Plasma is the fluid part of the blood which is pale yellow in colour.
It is slightly alkaline in nature. It has 90-92% water, 6-8 % proteins and 1-2
% inorganic salts.
It
contains proteins such as albumin, globulin, fibrinogen, etc. There are
inorganic ions such as Ca, Na and K.
(2)
Blood cells :
(a)
Blood cells are mainly of three types, viz. RBCs, WBCs and blood platelets.
They are produced in the red bone marrow.
(b)
RBCs are small, circular and enucleated cells. They are full of haemoglobin
which is essential in transporting oxygen. RBCs are red blood cells which are
50 to 60 lakh per cubic millimetre. Their life span is 100 to 127 days.
(c)
WBCs are large, nucleated and colourless. They are of five subtypes, viz. neutrophils,
basophils, eosinophils, monocytes and lymphocytes. They are 5 to 10 thousands
per millimetre of blood.
(d)
Platelets are very small disc-shaped blood cells which are 2.5 to 4 lakh per
cubic millimetre of blood.
II. Function of human
blood :
(1) Transport functions:
(a) Gases : Oxygen is carried via
blood from lungs to cells in various parts of body and carbon dioxide from
tissues to lungs.
(b) Nutrients : Simple nutrients
like glucose, amino acids, fatty acids are taken up by blood from wall of
alimentary canal and transported up to each cell in the body.
(c) Waste materials : Nitrogenous
wastes like ammonia, urea, creatinine are released by tissues into blood which
carries those to kidney for excretion.
(d) Enzymes and hormones : Blood
transports the enzymes and hormones from the site of their production to the
site of their action
(2) Protection : Antibodies are
produced in the blood and they protect the body from microbes and other harmful
particles.
(3) Thermoregulation : Body temperature is maintained constant at 37 °C by
vasodilation and vasoconstriction.
(4)
Maintaining the balance of minerals like Na, K in the body.
(5)
If bleeding occurs at the injury, platelets and a protein called fibrinogen of
the blood form a clot and seal the injury.
(6) Functions of blood cells :
RBCs
: With haemoglobin it carries out transport of respiratory gases.
WBCs
: Soldiers of the body. Produce antibodies and give immunity to body.
Platelets : Help in blood clotting.
(3)
Explain the importance and need of blood donation.
Ans.
Blood can never be synthesized artificially. There is no substitute for natural
blood.
Every healthy person possesses about 5 litres of blood in his or her body. In
case of haemorrhage i.e. blood loss, the blood volume may reduce which can
result into threat to life. Moreover, the loss of blood should be immediately
taken care of, otherwise it may cost the life.
Therefore
blood transfusion is very crucial in case of victims of accidents, patients of
surgeries or mothers who suffer from blood loss during childbirth
(parturition). Some diseases such as thalassemia, blood cancer, etc. also need
regular transfusions. Therefore, blood is always needed in many such
conditions. Blood donation is only option for such transfusions.

Pasteur discovered the process of fermentation.
Q 4. Explain the uses and the harmful effects of
micro-organisms.
Ans.
1. Uses of micro-organisms :
(1) Micro-organism decomposition, the wastes and sewage water. (2) By the process of
Decomposition
they keep the environment clean. Fertilizers are prepared from wastes by this
process. With the help of biogas plant, the biogas is prepared by the
micro-organisms. (3) The microbes residing in the soil and in the root nodules
of leguminous plants help in biological nitrogen fixation. This helps in
increasing fertility of soil and also in increasing the protein content of
seeds in legumes. (4) Micro-organisms help in the formation of curd and other based
products. (5) The process of fermentation is used for producing alcohol from
grains and fruits, bread from flour as well as in the production of acetic
acid, citric acid, lactic acid, vitamins, antibiotics, etc. (6) Processes like
tanning of skin, production of ropes and strings from agave are also done with
help of microbes. (7) Oil slick is cleared with the help of some specific
bacteria.
II.
Harmful effects of micro-organisms :
Micro-organisms
spoil the food. In hot and humid air there is fugal attack on food. (2)
Microbes produce enterotoxins and cause food toxic resulting into food
poisoning. (3) Harmful microbes cause diseases in plants, animals and human.
Amoebiasis, typhoid, cholera, hepatitis, gastro are caused by water and food
borne microbes. (4) Microbes cause diseases like malaria, dengue,
elephantiasis, yellow fever, chikungunya, Zika fever, etc. These diseases are
caused after mosquito transfers the miscrobes into human body. Common cold,
cough, diphtheria, pneumonia, tuberculosis are diseases of respiratory tract
which are caused by microbes.
Q
5. When will you use a simple microscope and when, a compound microscope? Explain
in detail how you will use them.
Ans.
(1) Simple microscope is of lesser magnification. One can observe, insect parts
of parts of flowers under such microscope. (2) Compound microscope is required
for the observation of microbes. (3) Here magnification is 100 to 450 times. It
is there observation of cells and tissues. (4) The simple microscope's stage
can be used for direct observation. (5) The object to be studied by compound
microscope is placed over glass slide and covered over with cover slip. The
object is sectioned into very thin slices and stained appropriately. (6) The
ocular and objective lens are brought in one line. Before that the mirror is
adjusted for optimum light. (7) The magnified view of the object is seen
through the eyepiece. (8) The coarse focus knob is adjusted first and then with
fine focus knob the accurate focussing is done. (9) In this way, simple
microscope is used for general observations and compound microscope is used for
specialized observations that require greater magnification.
Q 6. Sketch and describe in
your own words, the plant cell and animal cell.
picture
1.
Plant cell : (1) There is cellulose cell wall in plant cells which is the
outermost covering of the cell. (2) Inside the cell wall there is a plasma
membrane that encloses cytoplasm. Cell organelles are embedded in the
cytoplasm. (3) Plastid is an important cell organelle present only in plant
cells. Of these chloroplasts perform photosynthesis. (4) Nucleus endoplasmic
reticulum, Golgi body, mitochondria are the cell organelles present in the
cytoplasm. (5) Vacuole is usually single and large. Since it is present in the
centre of the cell, the cytoplasm is pushed to one end.
II.
Animal cell : (1) The outermost covering is plasma membrane. (2) Inside this
there is cytoplasm in which the cell organelles are embedded. (3) The cell
organelles are as following: Nucleus, Golgi body, endoplasmic reticulum and
many smaller vacuoles.
Q. 8.
Give scientific reasons :
(1)
Diseases spread on a large scale during periods of heavy rainfall and floods.
Ans.
The spread of disease is most likely during heavy rainfall and floods. The
water and food gets contaminated. The water logging causes growth of micro-organisms
and house flies. They spread the pathogens rapidly. The humid atmosphere
induces food spoilage. Even if flood water recedes, the poodle formed helps in
the breeding of mosquitoes. All such reasons are responsible for epidemic
spread of diseases.
(2) There is a possibility of food
poisoning if we eat stale food.
Ans.
The stale food is likely to have microbes in it. Some of the microbes produce
enterotoxins. The enterotoxins cause food poisoning. Therefore there is a
possibility of food poisoning if we eat stale food.
(3)
Soil is turned over during tilling.
Ans. There are some useful bacteria in the soil.
They help to decompose organic substances into inorganic nutrients. Thereby
they produce fertilizers. Some microbes also help in nitrogen fixation. They help the plants to get
nitrogen. Thus to have better yield of crop, the soil is turned over during
tilling to mix the bacteria.
(4)
Fungus grows quickly in moist or humid conditions.
Ans.
The fungus needs suitable conditions for the growth. The moist and humid
conditions are favourable to it. It does not grow in dry conditions.
(5) A refrigerator is used in almost
every home.
Ans. The harmful microbes do not grow in cold
temperatures. they grow only in the temperature range of 15° C to 35° C.
Refrigerator has very low temperatures. Food can be stored there without spoiling.
Therefore, to store perishable food items refrigerators have become essential
in every home.
(6)
Bread 'rises during baking.
Ans.
When the bread is prepared yeast is added to it. Yeast is a type of fungus. It
undergoes process of fermentation in the batter of bread and releases carbon
dioxide. Therefore, the bread rises during baking.
(7)
Fodder is soaked in water before offering to cattle.
Ans. By
adding the fodder into water, it is fermented. By fermentation, the vitamin
content rises in the fodder, it also becomes easier for digestion. The cattle
is thus well nourished. Therefore, fodder is soaked in water before offering to
cattle.
