Explain, What are organ specific manifestation and tissue specific manifestations?                                  
3
Ans:
When a microbe infects the specific organ of an individual in a particular type of disease,
 it is termed as organ specific manifestation. For example, in tuberculosis the microbe infects 
the specific organ i.e. lungs of an individual. When a microbe infects the tissues of the body 
of an individual in a particular type of disease, it is termed as tissue specific manifestation. 
For example, in HIV the virus infects the tissue and cells of the organism making decreasing 
his/her immunity.
10
What are the advantage of classifying organism? (3 point)
3
Ans:
1. Classification helps in identify the living organisms easily.
2. It makes study of such a wide variety of bio-life in systematic manner.
3. Enables us understand how complex organisms evolve over the time.
4. Classification help us understand the inter-relationships among different groups.
11
Write one point difference between each , between the following                                                                        
(a) Annelids and arthropods           (b) Thallophytes and petridophytes
(c) periferan and Coelenterates
3
Ans
(a) Annelids have closed circulatory systems in which the heart pumps blood into vessels 
where as Arthropods, however, have open circulatory systems, so the blood actually pumps
 the blood into parts of the body cavity known as sinuses
(b) Thallophytes do not have well-differentiated body design  and petridophytes easily
differentiated into roots, stem and leaves (c) Porifera have very minimal body design
differentiation whre as Coelenterates show more body design differentiation.
12
write the apropriate term for                          
(a)Animals that are able to  maintain a certain body temp over a wide range of temp in the environment
(b) Plants bear naked seeds            (c) Plants which have Pseudocoelom
 3
Ans
(a) warm blooded animals- mammals and aves  (b) Gymnosperms        (c) Nematode
13
Write one point difference between each , between the following                                                                          
(a) Amphibian and Reptiles     (b) Aves and mamals  (c) Gymnosperm and angioosperm
3

Ans:
(a) Reptiles lay eggs with tough coverings and do not need to lay their eggs in water, 
unlike amphibians.
(b) Aves are warm-blooded animals and have a four-chambered heart. They lay eggs.
 Whereas mamals are warm-blooded animals and have a four-chambered heart. They 
have mammary gland and give birth to child.
(c) Gymnosperm bear naked seeds where as angioosperm bear seeds inside fruit
14
Why is there a need for systematic naming of living organisms?
3
Ans
The scientific name for an organism is essential to identify living organisms anywhere 
in the world.
15
Write three convention that are followed while writing scientific names of the species
3
Ans
The system of scientific naming or nomenclature we use today was introduced by 
Carolus Linnaeus
Certain conventions are followed while writing the scientific names:
1. The name of the genus begins with a capital letter.
2. The name of the species begins with a small letter.
3. When printed, the scientific name is given in italics.
4. When written by hand, the genus name and the species name have to be 
underlined separately

Class 10 Chapter 02 Acid Bases and Salts NCERT Activity Explanation

NCERT Activity Chapter 02 Acid Bases and Salt Class 10 Chemistry Activity 2.1 Indicator Acid Base Red litmus No Change Blue Blue Litmus Red No change Phenolphthalein Colourless Pink Methyl Orange Pink   Yellow Indictors are substance which change colour in acidic or basic media. Activity 2.2 There are some substances whose odour changes in in acidic or basic media. These are called olfactory indicators. Like onion vanilla, onion and clove. These changes smell in basic solution. Activity 2.3 Take about 5 mL of dilute sulphuric acid in a test tube and add few pieces of zinc granules to it. => You will observe bubbles of hydrogen gas on the surface of zinc granules. Zn + H2SO4 --> ZnSO4 + H2 => Pass the Hydrogen gas through the soap solution. Bubbles formed in the soap solution as Hydrogen gas it does not get d...

Class 10 Metal and Non MetalsChapter 03 NCERT Activity Solutions

X Class 10 NCERT Activity Explanation Class 10 Metals and Non Metals Activity 3.1 Page No. 37 Take samples of iron, copper, aluminium and magnesium. Note the appearance of each sample. They have a shining surface. Clean the surface of each sample by rubbing them with sand paper and note their appearance again. They become more shiny. => Freshly cut Metal have shiny surface Activity 3.2 Page No. 37 Take small pieces of iron, copper, aluminium, and magnesium. Try to cut these metals with a sharp knife and note your observations. They are very hard to cut. Hold a piece of sodium metal with a pair of tongs and try to cut it with a knife. Sodium can be cut easily with knife. Hence K and Na are soft metal cut with knife Activity 3.3 Page No. 38 Take pieces of iron, zinc, lead and copper try to strike it four or five times with a hammer. These metals are beaten into thin sheet on hammering. This property of metal is called malleability and metals are called malleable. Activity 3.4 Page ...

Class 09 Atoms and Molecules Numerical Problem based on Law of chemical Combination(Solved)

Class 09 Atoms and Molecules Numerical Problem based on Law of chemical Combination Law of conservation of mass Law of constant proportion Empirical formula 1. If 10 grams of CaCO 3 on heating gave 4.4g of CO 2 and 5.6g of CaO, show that these observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass.(Based on Law of conservation of mass) Solution:  Mass of the reactants = 10g ;  Mass of the products = 4.4 + 6.6g = 10g Since the mass of the reactants is equal to the mass of the products, the observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass. 2. 1.375 g of cupric oxide was reduced by heating and the weight of copper that remained was 1.098g.  In another experiment 1.179 g of copper was dissolved in nitric acid and the resulting copper nitrate was converted into cupric oxide by ignition . The weight of cupric oxide formed was 1.476 g. which law of chemical combinations does this data state? Solution: in first experiment: Copper oxide = 1....
