Very Short Answer type Questions
 
Question : What is the importance of DNA copying in reproduction?
Answer : DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) determines the body design of an individual. DNA transfers inherited properties from parents to offsprings. DNA copying is also responsible for variations, which are necessary for development.
 
Question : Why is variation beneficial to the species but not necessarily for the individual?
Answer : Because sometimes for a species, the environmental conditions change so drastically that their survival becomes difficult. So due to variations some individuals will adapt according to the conditions, and will survive. Thus, these variants help in the survival of the species. However, all variations are not necessarily beneficial for the individual organisms.
 
Question : How does binary fission differ from multiple fission?
Answer : In binary fission, a single cell divides into two equal halves. Amoeba and Paramecium divide by binary fission.
In multiple fission, a single cell divides into many daughter cells simultaneously. Plasmodium divide by multiple fission.
 
Question : How will an organism be benefited if it reproduces through spores?
Answer : Spores are distributed easily by air to far-off places to avoid competition at one place. Spores are covered by thick walls to prevent dehydration under unfavourable conditions.
 
Question : Can you think of reasons why more complex organisms cannot give rise to new individuals through regeneration?
Answer : complex organisms have organ-system level of organization. All the organ systems of their body work together as an interconnected unit. So new complete organism cannot be regenerated from any body part.
 
Question : Why is vegetative propagation practised for growing some types of plants?
Answer : Some plants which cannot produce seeds or produce dormant seeds are produced by vegetative propagation
 
Question : Why is DNA copying an essential part of the process of reproduction?
Answer : DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) determines the body design of an individual. DNA transfers inherited properties from parents to offsprings. DNA copying is also responsible for variations, which are necessary for development.
 
Question : How is the process of pollination different from fertilization?
Answer : Pollination     
1. Pollination is the process of transfer of pollens from anther to stigma.
2. It is of two types: Self- pollination and cross- Pollination
Fertilization
1. Fertilization is the fusion of the male and female gametes.
2. It is of two types: Internal and external fertilization.
 
Question : What is the role of the seminal vesicles and the prostate gland?
Answer : The secretions from seminal vesicles and prostate glands lubricate the sperms and provide a fluid medium for easy transport of sperms. Their secretion also provides nutrients to sperms.
 
Question : What are the changes seen in girls at the time of puberty?
Answer : (1) Increase in breast size and darkening of skin of the nipples present at the tips of the breasts.
(2) Appearance of hair in the genital area.
(3) Appearance of hair in other areas of skin like underarms, face, hands, and legs.
(4) Maturity in the reproductive organs.
(4) Beginning of menstrual cycle.
(5) More secretion of oil from the skin, which results in the appearance of pimples.
 
Question : How does the embryo get nourishment inside the mother’s body?
Answer : Embryo get nutrients from blood of mother. Inside the uterus, the outer tissue surrounding the embryo develops finger-like projections called villi. These villi are surrounded by uterine tissue and maternal blood. Also, there is a special tissue called placenta, which is embedded in the uterine wall. The embryo receives the oxygen and nutrients from the mother’s blood via the placenta. The waste materials produced by the embryo are also removed through the placenta.
 
Question : If a woman is using a copper-T, will it help in protecting her from sexually transmitted diseases?
Answer : No, because it is only contraceptive. It does not prevent the entry of semen.
 
 
Short Answer type Questions

Question. What is menstruation? Why does it occur?
Answer : Menstruation is the process of breakdown and removal of the inner lining of the uterus along with the blood vessels in the form of vaginal bleeding. This happens after every 28 days if the egg is not fertilised. This takes place in human females and in some primates.

Question. What is binary and multiple fission? Name the organisms in which they occur.
Answer : Binary fission is the division of one parent cell into two identical daughter cells. It takes place in Amoeba, Paramecium, Euglena and other protozoa.
In multiple fission one single celled organism divides into many daughter cells within a cyst. These are released when the cyst breaks. This takes place in Plasmodium (malarial parasite).

Question. What is vegetative propagation? What are its advantages?
Answer : The process by which some plants can reproduce asexually by their vegetative parts like roots, stem and leaves is called vegetative propagation. It has many advantages.
Plants raised by vegetative propagation can bear flowers and fruits earlier than those produced from seeds. Plants that have lost the capacity to produce seeds like banana, rose and jasmine can be propagated by this method. All plants produced by this method are genetically similar to the parent plant.

Question. What is ‘reproduction’? Mention the importance of DNA copying in reproduction.
Answer : Reproduction is the process by which the existing organisms produce their own kind.
DNA copying during reproduction is important for the transfer of parental characters to the offspring.

Question. What is the role of seminal vesicles and prostate gland?
Answer : These are the accessory glands associated with the male reproductive system. Seminal vesicles and prostrate gland secrete a fluid which makes the transport of sperms easier and also provides nourishment to the sperms. This fluid together with the sperms is called the semen.

Question. Device an experiment to show germination of gram seed.
Answer : (a) Soak a few seeds of Bengal gram (chana) and keep them overnight.
(b) Drain the excess water and cover the seeds with a wet cloth and leave them for a day. Make sure that the seeds do not become dry.
(c) Cut open the seeds carefully and observe the different parts.
(d) Compare your observations with the figure above that shows the germination of gram seed and see if you can identify all the parts

Question. What does the male and female reproductive system consists of?
Answer : The male reproductive system in human beings consists of testes which produce sperms, vas deferens, seminal vesicles, prostrate gland, urethra and penis. The female reproductive system consists of a pair of ovaries, fallopian tube, uterus and vagina.

Question. What is STD? Name two STDs.
Answer : STD is Sexually Transmitted Disease. Two STDs are syphilis and gonorrhoea.

Question. Explain the process of sexual reproduction in plants.
Answer : After the pollen lands on a suitable stigma it germinates to form the pollen tube. The pollen tube grows through the style and carries the male germ cells in it. The pollen tube enters the ovule and the male germ cells fuse with the egg cell to form the zygote. This process is called fertilisation.

Question. Mention the information source of making proteins in the cell. What is the basic event in reproduction?
Answer : Cellular DNA is the information source of making proteins in the cell.
The basic event in reproduction is copying of DNA so that the cells can further divide.

Question. How is the amount of DNA maintained in each generation?
Answer : The amount of DNA is maintained in each generation by a specialized mode of cell division called meiosis which produces specialized male and female germ cells called gametes which are haploid. One male and female gamete fertilize to give rise to a diploid zygote which has the same chromosome number as the parent. This process maintains the chromosome number and the amount of DNA in each generation.

Question. (a) In human body what is the role of
(i) Seminal vesicles (iii) Prostrate glands.
(b) List two functions performed by testes in human beings.
Answer : (a) Seminal vesicles: Produce a fluid which makes the transport of sperms easy. Prostate glands: Produces a fluid which keeps sperms floating in it and provides nourishment.
(b) Two functions of testes:
(i) They secrete hormone: testosterone responsible for the male characteristics.
(ii) It helps in the formation of sperms.

Question. What is self and cross pollination?
Answer : Self Pollination: It is the transfer of pollen grains from the anther of a flower to the stigma of the same or another flower on the same plant.
Cross Pollination: It is the transfer of the pollen grains from the anther of a flower to the stigma of another flower on a different plant of the same species.

Question. What are sexually transmitted diseases? Name four such diseases. Which one of them damages the immune system of human body to complete?
Answer : The diseases that spread due to sexual contact from infected person to a healthy person are called sexually transmitted diseases. Four STDs:
(i) Gonorrhoea (ii) Syphilis (iii) Warts (iv) AIDS

Question 4: What are the advantages of sexual reproduction over asexual reproduction?
Answer- (1) In sexual reproduction, more variations are produced. Thus, it ensures survival of species in a population.
(2) The new formed individual has characteristics of both the parents.
 
Question 5: What are the functions performed by the testis in human beings?
Answer- Testes produce sperms and a hormone called testosterone, which brings about secondary sexual characters in boys.
 
Question 6: Why does menstruation occur?
Answer- Menstruation is a process in which blood and mucous flows out every month through the vagina. This process occurs every month because one egg is released from the ovary every month and at the same time, the uterus (womb) prepares itself to receive the fertilized egg. Thus, the inner lining of the uterus gets thickened and is supplied with blood to nourish the embryo. If the egg does not get fertilized, then the lining of the uterus breaks down slowly and gets released in the form of blood and mucous from the vagina.
 
Question 7: Draw a labelled diagram of the longitudinal section of a flower.

Question 8- What are the different methods of contraception?
Answer- Contraceptive methods
(1) Physical methods like condom, copper-T and loop etc can prevent fertilization.
(2) Oral contraceptive tablets or drugs can prevent the release of egg, thus can stop fertilization.
(3) Surgical methods like vasectomy in man and tubectomy in woman can stop fertilization.
 
Question 9: How are the modes for reproduction different in unicellular and multicellular organisms?
Answer- Unicellular organism reproduce only by asexually reproduction, but most of multicellular organism reproduce by sexual reproduction.
 
Question 10: How does reproduction help in providing stability to populations of species?
Answer- With reproduction an organism produce new individuals that resemble the parents. Also sexual reproduction causes variations, which are necessary for the survival of a species in drastic environmental changes.
 
Question 11: What could be the reasons for adopting contraceptive methods?
Answer- Contraceptive methods are mainly adopted because of the following reasons:
(i) To prevent unwanted pregnancies.
(ii) To control population rise or birth rate.
(iii) To keep appropriate gap between children for good health.
(iv) To prevent the transfer of sexually transmitted diseases.
