HOW DO ORGANISMS REPRODUCE?

Very Short Answer type Questions

Question. Why is DNA copying an essential part of the process of reproduction?
Answer : Cell multiplication is essential for reproduction either as a means of multiplication in unicellular organisms or as a means of development of multicellular body from a single celled zygote. Cell multiplication cannot occur without DNA replication or DNA copying because each new cell must carry the full DNA complement.

Question. Where is DNA found in the cell?
Answer : Nucleus, plastids and mitochondria.

Question. State what type of method is used for growing jasmine plant.
Answer : Layering, a type of artificial method of vegetative propagation.

Question. Define sexual reproduction.
Answer : It is a mode of reproduction in which offspring are formed by the process of formation and fusion of gametes.

Question. What is the effect of DNA copying which is not perfectly accurate in the reproductive process?.
Answer : It produces mutations which give rise to useful, harmful and neutral variations in the progeny.

Question. Name the parts where germ cells of a flower are located.
Answer : Male — in anther of stamen.
Female — in ovule of carpel.

Question. List two functions of ovary of human female reproductive system.
Answer : 1. Formation of ova
2. Secretion of hormones estrogen and progesterone.

Question. List two unisexual flowers.
Answer : Water Melon, Papaya.

Question. Name the organs producing
(i) male germ cells / sperms and
(ii) female germ cells / ova respectively in humans.
Answer : (i) Testis
(ii) Ovary.

Question. What is DNA?
Answer : DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is a self replicating biochemical that is carrier of genetic informationfor expression of hereditary traits and transfer to the next generation.

Question. Name the type of fission carried out by Amoeba.
Answer : Binary fission.

Question. Name the method by which Hydra reproduces commonly. Is this method sexual or asexual?
Answer : Hydra reproduces commonly by budding (also regeneration). It is a method of asexual reproduction.

Question. Name the type of reproduction mostly seen in unicellular organisms.
Answer : Asexual reproduction through cell division as binary fission, multiple fission, sporulation, budding.

Question. What happens when a mature Spirogyra filament attains considerable length?
Answer : The elongated mature filament of Spirogyra breaks to form smaller pieces or fragments. The fragments grow to form mature filaments. .

Question. Write the full form of IUCD.
Answer : Intra-uterine contraceptive device.

Question. Name any two types of asexual reproduction.
Answer : Fission, Spore formation.

Question. How does Plasmodium reproduce? Is this method sexual or asexual?
Answer : 1. Multiple fission,
2. Asexual method.

Question. What is fertilisation? Where does it occur in a human female?
Answer : Fertilisation is the fusion of male and female gametes to form diploid zygote. In human female, it occurs in ampulla part of fallopian tube.

Question. Name the method by which Spirogyra reproduces under favourable conditions. Is this method sexual or asexual?
Answer : 1. Fragmentation
2. Asexual method.

Short Answer type Questions

5. Explain how ovary functions both as reproductive organ as well as endocrine gland.
Answer : Reproductive Organ. Ovary produces ova, one every lunar month for possible fertilization and formation of foetus.
Endocrine Gland. Maturing ova or follicles present in ovary secrete oestrogen (= estrogen) while empty follicle develops into corpus luteum that secretes progesterone.

2. Compare the vegetative propagation of Bryophyllum and Money plant.
Answer : In Bryophyllum, vegetative propagation occurs through the agency of leaves that fall on moist soil. In Money Plant, vegetative propagation occurs with the help of stem cuttings bearing at least one leaf and its axillary bud. A single leaf of Bryophyllum can produce several plants. A leafy stem cutting of Money Plant forms only a single plant.

7. (a) Why are budding, fragmentation and regeneration considered as asexual type of reproduction?
(b) Which among the following reproduces by spore formation: Bryophyllum, Rhizopus, Hydra ?
Answer : (a) Asexual Reproduction: Budding, fragmentation and regeneration are all considered to be modes of asexual reproduction as they involve formation of new individuals from single parents without fertilization or fusion of gametes.
(b) Rhizopus.

3. (a) Where are the male germ cell and female gamete produced in a flower ?
(b) State the significance of variation in reproduction.
(c) Mention the principle of regeneration.
Answer : (a) Male Germ Cell (Male Gamete). Formed inside the pollen tube or pollen grain from generative cell.
Female Gamete (Oosphere). Inside embryo sac part of ovule.
(b) Significance of Variation in Reproduction
1. It provides individuality to each living organism,
2. It helps individuals in the struggle for existence,
3. Variation is a source of preadaptation.
(c) Principle of Regeneration: It is the ability of an individual to form lost or broken part, sometimes the entire individual from a piece of the parent body through dedifferentiation of mature cells and activity of reserve cells. The ability to form a new individual from a part of the body is well developed in simple animals like Hydra and Planaria. It is restricted to the formation of only broken parts in complex organisms.

4. (a) Name two bacterial STD infections.
(b) How do oral pills prevent pregnancy?
Answer : (a)
i. Gonorrhoea caused by bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae
ii. Syphilis caused by bacterium Treponema pallidum.
(b) Oral pills contain progestin (= progesterone) alone or in combination with estrogen. They prevent pregnancy by inhibition of ovulation, making uterine wall unsuitable for implantation alongwith unsuitable changes in cervical mucus and activity of fallopian tubes.

1. What is placenta? State its two roles during pregnancy.
Answer : Placenta is a spongy vascular structure formed by the joint activity of maternal and foetal tissues in the wall of uterus that connects foetus with uterus.
Roles:
1. Providing nutrition to the foetus.
2. Taking away wastes of the foetus.

6. What is the information source in the cell nucleus for making proteins. State the basic events in reproduction.
Answer : 1. Information Source. DNA
2. Basic Events in Reproduction. DNA replication, growth of cellular machinery and cell division.

Long Answer type Questions
