Q 4. Complete the following table:

        Organ systems                                 Organs                             Function

       (1) Respiratory system

       (2) Circulatory system

 

Organ systems

Organ

Function

(1)   Respiratory 

      system

Nose

 

For inhalation and exhalation. The air is filtered and made little warm when breath passes through nose.

Pharynx

 

Common passage for food and air. Leads to trachea and oesophagus.

Wind pipe (Trachea)

 

Takes air to lungs. Bifurcates into two bronchi

Lungs

 

Provides space for respiratory gaseous exchange.

Alveolus

 

Actual gaseous exchange by taking in oxygen and giving out carbon dioxide

Diaphragm

 

By contractions and relaxation it makes breathing movements possible.

(2)   Circulatory

system

Heart

 

Muscular pump that can send the blood throughout the body.

Arteries

 

Carry blood away from heart to all the parts of the body. Except for pulmonary artery, all other arteries carry oxygenated blood to supply oxygen to each and every cell.

Veins

 

Carry blood to the heart. Except for pulmonary veins all other veins carry deoxygenated blood from all the body cells to the heart.

Blood capillaries

 

Each important vital organ is provided with capillary network. Exchange of oxygen, nutrients, hormones, vitamins, etc. takes place through the capillary wall. Such useful substances are sent towards the cells and waste materials are taken from the cells.

Blood cells

 

Various functions depending upon the type of blood cells. RBC : Carrying oxygen and carbon dioxide. WBC : Soldiers of the body. Produce antibodies and fight against germs of diseases. Platelets : Carry out important function in blood clotting.

Plasma

 

Many proteins present in the plasma which carry out definite functions. Plasma also gives fluidity to the blood.

 

Q 5. Explain the differences:

(1) External and internal respiration :

            External respiration                                                Internal respiration

1. Intake of air from the outside into the body     1. Exchange of gases between cells and tissue

and release of air from the body to outside is     fluid is called internal respiration.

Is called external environment.

2. External respiration occurs between cells                    2. Internal respiration occurs only in the cells

and the external environment.                             of the body.

3. It involve processes of inspiration and                        3. It involves movement of O2 from blood

  expiration.                                                                   into tissue fluid and movement of CO2

from tissue.

4. External respiration involves breathing                        4. Internal respiration involves neither

and gaseous exchange.                                     breathing nor gaseous exchange.

5. Oxygen combines with haemoglobin in                 5. Chemical reactions occur in the cells to

 external respiration.                                                      form energy.

 

(2) Arteries and veins :

                            Arteries                                                         Veins

1.Arteries carry blood away from the heart              1. Veins carry blood from the tissues of the

to the tissues of the body.                                         body back to the heart.

2. Arteries are located deeper within the           2. Veins are usually located superficially

body.                                                                        beneath the surface of the skin.

3. Arteries are thick walled.                                          3. Veins are thin walled.

4. Arteries do not have valves.                         4. Veins have valves.

5. Arteries would generally remain open if                     5. Veins would collapse if blood flow stops.

blood flow stopped, due to their thick

muscular layer.

6. Except pulmonary artery, all arteries             6. Except pulmonary vein, all veins carry

carry oxygenated blood.                                          deoxygenated blood.

7. Arteries are more muscular than veins,               7. Veins are less muscular than arteries, but which helps in transporting blood that is                  contain valves to help keep blood flowing

full of oxygen efficiently to the tissues.            in the right direction, usually toward the heart.

8. There is maximum blood pressure in the            8. There is minimum blood pressure in the

arteries.                                                                     veins.

 

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.

Q. 3. Answer the following questions :

(1) What is a 'cell’?

Ans. The structural and functional unit of the body is called a cell.

(2) Name the different organelles in a cell?

Ans. Nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, ribosome, Golgi body, lysosomes, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles are all different cell organelles.

(3) What are micro-organisms?

Ans. The living organisms on the earth which are in every environment but can be seen only under compound microscope are called micro-organisms.

(4) Which are the different types of micro-organisms?

Ans Bactaria, virus, fungi, algae and protozoan are all the different types of micro-organism.

(5) Who discovered the process of fermentation?

Louis 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.
