   Control And Co-ordination    

Q1. Observe the figure given below. The name of the part ‘X’ and its function is 


(A) Neuron; transmits chemicals as electrical impulses 

(B) synapse; transmits electrical signals generated at the axon terminal to the dendrite 

(C) Neuron; transmits electrical impulses as chemicals

(D) synapse; transmits chemical signals generated at the axon terminal to the dendrite

Ans: (D) synapse; transmits chemical signals generated at the axon terminal to the dendrite

Q2. Observe the tropisms of plants expressed in the following figures A and B. What is the difference between the movements of these plants?


Ans:

Plant A : Nastic moment

Plant B : Trophic moment

Q3. Name the given structure. What is its general function ? Mention the function of the parts labelled as A and B. These structures in animals are said to be efficient ways to give quick responses. Why ?

Ans:

★ Reflex arc

★ It gives sudden action in response to the event happening in the environment.

A) Sensory neuron : It conducts the impulse of stimulus from receptor to the spinal cord.

B) Effectors : Which shows the sudden visible response. Reflex arcs have evolved in animals because the thinking process of brain is not fast enough in many animals. Mean while many animals have very little of the complex neuron network needed for thinking.

So it can function in the absence of true thought process and increase the chance of survival. 

Q4. Observe the given diagram. The response shown by part X Is


(A) Positive thigmotropism and directional movement 

 (B) Positive geotropism and independent movement 

 (C) Positive phototropism and non-directional movement 

 (D) Positive chemotropism and independent movement

Ans: (A) Positive thigmotropism and directional movement 

Q5. While studying the growth of a seedling, the seedling is kept as shown in the figure. What type of tropism is shown by the part labelled as 'X'? Why ?

Ans. : 

★ X — Grows towards the earth in downward direction. 

★ Radical ‘X’ shows positive geotropism. Hence bends and grows towards the earth.  


   How Do Organisms Reproduce    

Q1. A scientist cuts planaria as shown in the figure below. After regeneration how many planaria will remain here ?


Ans: One

Q2. Observe the structure given in the following figure. The type of tropic movement that helps the movement of ‘C’ towards ‘B’ here is,


(A) Phototropism  

(B) Chemotropism

(C) Geotropism 

(D) Hydrotropism

Ans: (B) Chemotropism

Q3. Observe the processes depicted in the given figures. Among the progenies, which of the process (i) causes variations ? (ii) causes similarities ?

Ans: 

(i) Variations: Figure 2  

(ii) Similarities: Figure 1

Q4. Observe the figure below. The characteristic and function of the structure ‘X’ are respectively

(A) wall is absent and pollinates.    

(B) it has a thick wall and grows into a new rhizopus. 

(C) it has a thin wall and grows into a new rhizopus. 

(D) it has a thick wall and pollinates. 

Ans: (B) it has a thick wall and grows into a new rhizopus.

(A) Fertilization of egg is possible in both of the structures

(B) Fertilization of egg is possible only in the structure of figure-B

(C) Fertilization of egg is possible only in the structure of figure-A

(D) Fertilization of egg is not possible in both of the structures

Ans: (C) Fertilization of egg is possible only in the structure of figure-A

Q6. In the given figure of Cotyledon the parts labelled as A and B respectively are 

(A) fruit, shoot 

(B) primary shoot, primary root

(C) secondary root, primary shoot

(D) bud, leaf.

(A) ‘P’ only Total 

 (B) ‘R’ only 

(C) Both ‘P’ and ‘R’ 

 (D) ‘Q’ only 

 Ans. : (D) ‘Q’ only 

Q9. Observe the figures of flowers given below : 


Name the types of pollination that can occur in these two flowers. 

 Ans. : 

 Flower A : Self pollination. 

 Flower B : Cross pollination 

Q10.


The reproduction methods expressed in both of the above figures are similar or different from each other? Write the justification to your answer. 

Ans : The reproduction methods expressed in both of the above figures are different from each other.

Spirogyra:

★Spirogyra reproduces by fragmentation

★ breaks up into smaller pieces upon maturation and these pieces grow into new individuals.

Planaria:

★ Planaria reproduces by regeneration.

★can be cut into any number of pieces and each piece grows into a complete organism. 

Observe the figure below. A correct pair that has the name of the process that produces the 

Q11. structure labelled as X and the name of the organism in which this process is found is 

(A) Budding, Sea anemone 

(B) Fragmentation, Coral 

(C) Budding, Hydra 

(D) Fragmentation, Yeast

Q12. Identify the type of reproduction shown in the diagram given below:
(A) Budding

(B) Fragmentation

(C) Spore Formation

(D) Binary Fission

Ans: (D) Binary Fission

Q13. Observe the figures of flower A and B given below. Which flower undergoes only cross pollination ? Justify your answer. 


Ans. : Flower ‘B’ will undergo only cross pollination. 2 1 In flower ‘B’, there is no stamens. Hence it must undergo cross pollination.  


   Our Environment    

Q1. Observe the food chain given below. Which trophic level organisms get the least energy? 
 Why? 

Ans: 

The organisms at the highest trophic level (V) i.e., Duck (top consumer) get the least energy.

Because at each trophic level, most of the energy is lost as heat during various life processes. Only about 10% of the energy is transferred to the next trophic level. Hence, the top level organisms receive the least energy.
