Oxygen is transported from the lungs to the body cells in the form of oxyhemoglobin. Carbon – dioxide is transported from the body cells to the lungs in the form of carbamino – haemoglobin
Question: What is “translocation”? Why it is essential for plants.
Answer : Transportation of organic solutes in the plants is called translocation. It is necessary, because all the cells need food to carry out their vital functions. It occurs in upward as well as downward direction or to the storage organs of roots, fruits, seeds and to growing organs.
Question: What are the modes of excretion in plants?
Answer : Modes of excretion in plants are –
a) The plants get rid of excess water by transpiration.
b) The only major gases excretory product of plants in oxygen. It is released from plants into the environment by diffusion.
c) Organic wastes of plants are stored within dead permanent tissues such as wood or within leaves or bark which are periodically removed.
d) The plants also excrete some wastes substances into the soil around them.
e) Many wastes products of plants are stored in cellular vacuoles.
Question: How is transpiration pull responsible for upward movement of water?
Answer : The leaves loose water in the form of water vapours through stomata by a process known as transpiration. Continuous transpiration creates a s suction in the water column of the xylem elements and it reaches unto the roots. This pull is called transpiration pull. Due to transpiration, the water column of the plant is pulled up from below to the top of the plant.
Question: Chloroplast are called energy convertors. Explain.
Answer : Chloroplasts are called energy convertors because they trap the solar energy and convert it into chemical energy.
Question: While eating you are advised not to talk Why are you advised so?

Question: Name the respiratory organs of (i) fish (ii) mosquito (iii) earthworm.
Answer : Fish – gills
Mosquito – Trachea (air tubes)
Earthworm – moist skin
Question: If a person is working on a treadmill in a gymnasium, will it effect his rate of breathing? How?
Answer : Yes, it will affect his rate of breathing. The rate of breathing will become fast to supply more oxygen to meet the increased demand of energy.
Question: In the process of Photosynthesis food A is prepared which gets converted into food B. What are A and B? Why is A converted to B?
Answer : Food A is glucose and food B is Starch.
A is converted to B as B is insoluble form of carbohydrate. It is more compact and hence, suitable for storage.
Question: What is the function of digestive enzymes?
Answer : Enzymes break-down the various complex components of food into simple and soluble components so that they can be absorbed easily.
Question: Mucus is not used for churning the food or digesting it. Then why is it secreted in the stomach?
Answer : Mucus is secreted in the stomach to protect its inner lining form being damaged by HCI. Excessive secretion of HCI can damage the lining and lead to peptic ulcer.
Question: When we are asleep we are not performing any activity still our life processes are going on. Why?
Answer : “The maintenance functions of living organisms must go on even when they are not doing anything particular.” That is why the life processes are going on even while we are asleep or not performing any activity.
Question: We say that movement is a characteristic of living organisms but we always don’t see visible movements in plants. Comment.
Answer : We always don’t see visible movements in plants. It does not mean that they are not alive. Molecular movements take place in their body.
Question: Due to availability of less water, how does the plant cope up with lack of water in desert conditions?
Answer : They open their stomata at night and stomata remain closed during day time, to conserve moisture.
Question: Why is the rate if breathing much faster in aquatic organisms than those of terrestrial organisms?
Answer : The aquatic organisms obtain oxygen dissolved in water. As compared to air, the availability of oxygen in water is fairly low. Hence, the aquatic organisms have to breathe faster as compared to the terrestrial organisms.
Answer the following questions :
1. Name the process required for the maintenance of life.
2. What is the function of stomata and how do they perform this function?
3. Which element is essential for the synthesis of proteins in plants?
4. How do the plants fulfill the requirement of nitrogen to make proteins?
5. Describe the nutrition process in Amoeba.
6. Name the enzyme present is saliva.
7. What are the secretions of gastric glands?
8. Name the muscle which regulate the exit of food from stomach?
9. Name the enzymes present in pancreatic Juice?
10. What causes the formation of cramps in our muscles?
11. Why does the rate of breathing in aquatic organisms is much faster than the terrestrial organism?
12. Name the respiratory pigment present in human beings?
13. Why does the ventricles have thick walls than atria?
14. Name the group of animals that have 3 chambered and 2 chambered heart?
