Why do prevention is better than cure?

Answer»

When it comes to our health, prevention is much better than cure. Several diseases and injuries are preventable, and can be managed much better if identified earlier on.

It is common for people only to go to the doctor when they are feeling unwell. A regular check-up with your doctor helps them to assess your overall health and to identify your risk factors for disease. By knowing what's normal for you early on, you'll be able to detect any serious changes later.

There are three limitations of this approach to dealing with infectious diseases are (I) The first is that there body functions are damaged and may never recover completely.(ii) The second once someone has a disease is likely to be bed ridden for some time if we can give proper treatment.(iii) The third is that once someone has a infectious disease can serve as the source from where the infection may spread to other people.

Explain the word ecosystem.

Answer»

An ecosystem is a community of living organisms in conjunction with the nonliving components of their environment, interacting as a system. These biotic and abiotic components are linked together through nutrient cycles and energy flows.

2703.

Site an example where you find the effect of human beings on an ecosystem. Explain whyyou think so and suggest some means to minimize the same.

Answer»

It is rare to find a beach in the world that doesn’t have litter. Humans produce about 300 million tons of plastic each year. More than 8 million tons of that plastic are dumped into the oceans, and in 2017, an estimated 5 trillion pieces of plastic littered the seas. The plastic in the oceans has devastating effects on wildlife. In 2017, for example, a beached whale discovered off the coast of Scotland died because of the amount of plastic it had consumed – about nine pounds of plastic bags were found coiled in its digestive tract.

Preventing ocean pollution is vital for the well-being of the sea and marine life.1. Use Less Plastic

*(1) Explain coordination in plants with thehelp of suitable examples.

Answer»

Coordination is the ability to use different parts of the plant together, smoothly and efficiently. In plants, coordination is due to the result of a chemical system, wherein plant hormones or phytohormones have a major role.Movement in plants

Plants exhibit two types of movements.

1.Growth-dependent movements called the Tropic Movements. ( towards or away from a stimulus)

2.Non-growth dependent movements called the Nastic Movements. ( independent of stimulus)

Tropic movements

These can be classified again into 5 types. They are:

1.Phototropism (light)

2.Geotropism (gravity)

3.Hydrotropism (water )

4.Chemotropism (chemicals)

5.Thigmotropism (touch)

Plants have neither nervous system nor muscles that bring about Movement in animals it. It doesn't mean that plant do not show movement. Plants also show movements. moments that do not involve growth and moment that are due to growth these are the movement in a plant. hormones in plants are called plant hormones or growth regulator this helped in coordination of the plant. incremental triggers such that light water Gravity Chemicals that help in a coordination of the plant. some hormones like growth hormones such that a u x i n gibberellin cytokinin and also inhibitors that help the plant to more growth like abscisic acid.

Plants exhibit some growth changes as well as some movements. This coordination in plants is attributed to the presence of plant hormones. Unlike animals, plants do not have anymuscular system or nervous system. But, they are still able to show movement and also coordination. These movements are always controlled and not haphazard.

Explain Co ordination in Plants.

Answer»

What is coordination in plants?

Coordination is the ability to use different parts of the plant together, smoothly and efficiently. In plants, coordination is due to the result of a chemical system, wherein plant hormones or phytohormones have a major role.

Movement in plants

Plants exhibit two types of movements.

Growth-dependent movements called the Tropic Movements. ( towards or away from a stimulus)

Non-growth dependent movements called the Nastic Movements. ( independent of stimulus)

Tropic movements

These can be classified again into 5 types. They are:

Phototropism (light)

Geotropism (gravity)

Hydrotropism (water )

Chemotropism (chemicals)

Thigmotropism (touch

Nastic Movements

Nastic movements in plants are not directional movements. They are not dependent on stimulus and are growth independent. For example, the leaves of a touch me not plant (Mimosa pudica), fold up immediately when touched. These kinds of changes occur due to the changes in the amount of water in the leaves. Depending on the quantity, they either swell up or shrink.

Plant hormones or phytohormones

They are responsible for the control and coordination of plants. There are different types of hormones, which affect the growth of a plant. Phytohormones are chemical compounds which are released by stimulated cells. These hormones are diffused around the plant cells. They have a role to play in the cell division, cell enlargement, cell differentiation, fruit growth, falling of leaves, ripening of fruits, ageing of plants etc.

The different types of phytohormones are:

Auxins

Gibberellins

Cytokinins

Abscisic acid

Auxins– They help in the cell growth at the shoot tips. By elongating the cells, they help in the growth process.

Gibberellins– These hormones are responsible for the cell growth in the stem, seed germination and flowering.

Cytokinins– They promote cell division in plants. They also promote the opening of the stomata and delay ageing in leaves.

Abscisic acid– This hormone inhibits the growth of the plant. And therefore, it promotes dormancy in seeds and buds. The detachment of fruits, flowers and falling of leaves etc. are promoted by this hormone.

Coordination is the ability to use different parts of the plant together, smoothly and efficiently. In plants, coordination is due to the result of a chemical system, wherein plant hormones or phytohormones have a major role.

Describe chromosomal theory of sex determination ?

Answer»

In diploid organisms, a pair of chromosomes determines the sex of individual. They are called the sex chromosomes or allosomes or heterosomes. Sex determination is the process by which the fertilised egg develops the characters of either the male or female. This process occurs at the time of fusion of egg and sperm.2 conditions

The female has XX chromosome and male has XY hence during zygote formation the egg has X chromosome and it depends on the sperm which chromosome it is carrying. If it is carrying Y chromosome the zygote will be of XY that is a male.If the sperm is carrying X chromosome then the zygote will be of XX that is female.

DNAor deoxyribonucleic acid is a long molecule that contains our unique genetic code. Like a recipe book it holds the instructions for making all the proteins in our bodies. Your genome?is made of a chemical called deoxyribonucleic acid, orDNAfor short.

deoxyribonucleic acid

deoxyribonucleic acid is correct answer

DNA means Deooxyribonucleic acid is a type of nucleic acid present in cell..it stores genetic information..and are responsible for storage and transfer of genetic characters i.e.responsible for heredity.

DNAor deoxyribonucleic acid is a long molecule that contains our unique genetic code. Like a recipe book it holds the instructions for making all the proteins in our bodies. Your genome?is made of a chemical called deoxyribonucleic acid, orDNAfor short

deoxyribonucleic acid, a self-replicating material which is present in nearly all living organisms as the main constituent of chromosomes. It is the carrier of genetic information.

Deoxyribonucleic acid(/diːˈɒksɪˌraɪboʊnjuːˌkliːɪk,-ˌkleɪ-/(listen);[1]DNA) is a molecule composed of two chains that coil around each other to form adouble helixcarryinggeneticinstructions for the development, functioning, growth andreproductionof all knownorganismsand manyviruses. DNA andribonucleic acid(RNA) arenucleic acids; alongsideproteins,lipidsand complex carbohydrates (polysaccharides), nucleic acids are one of the four major types ofmacromoleculesthat are essential for all known forms oflife.

The two DNA strands are also known aspolynucleotidesas they are composed of simplermonomericunits callednucleotides.[2][3]Each nucleotide is composed of one of fournitrogen-containingnucleobases(cytosine[C],guanine[G],adenine[A] orthymine[T]), asugarcalleddeoxyribose, and aphosphate group.

DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is a long molecule that contains our unique genetic code. Like a recipe book it holds the instructions for making all the proteins in our bodies.

Yourgenomeis made of a chemical calleddeoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA for short.

DNA contains four basic building blocks or ‘bases’:adenine (A),cytosine (C),guanine (G) andthymine (T).

The order, or sequence, of these bases form the instructions in the genome.

DNA is a two-stranded molecule.

DNA has a unique ‘double helix’ shape, like a twisted ladder.

An illustration to show the double helix structure of DNA.Image credit: Genome Research Limited

Each strand is composed of long sequences of the four bases, A, C, G and T.

The bases on one strand of the DNA molecule pair together withcomplementary bases on the opposite strand of DNA to form the ‘rungs’ of the DNA ‘ladder’.

The bases always pair together in the same way,A with T, C with G.

Each base pair is joined together byhydrogen bonds

Each strand of DNA has a beginning and an end, called 5’ (five prime) and 3’ (three prime) respectively.

The two strands run in the opposite direction (antiparallel) to each other so that one runs 5’ to3’ and one runs 3’ to5’, they are called the sense strand and the antisense strand, respectively.

The strands are separated duringDNA replication

This double helix structure was first discovered by Francis Crick and James Watson with the help of Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins.

The human genome is made of 3.2 billion bases of DNA but other organisms have different genome sizes.
