What happens if all the functions of the human body are controlled only by brain? (OR)Brain controls all the functions of the human body. Comment on it. |
Answer» 1. If all actions of the human body are controlled by brain, our body will get harm in dangerous situations. 2. Some actions may be delayed and our brain could not conduct reflex actions, which require immediate action to a stimulus. 3. For example, when we touch a hot object, we require an immediate response to save our hand. If the brain controls this action, the time taken will be more and our hand will burn. 4. So, it is controlled by spinal cord, the response will be quick, and we may escape the danger. 5. Nerves can not reach the every corner of the body, whereas hormones of endocrine glands can do that. 6. So it’s not good that all functions are controlled by brain. |

Give an example of coordination in your body where both hormonal and nervous controls function together. |
Answer» 1. Several functions in our body are controlled by nerves, while many others are controlled by hormones. 2. When we are afraid, the rate of heart beat increases, the breath rate will be faster, blood pressure increases, the hair on the body becomes errect and we get goose bumps. 3. We might not observe our pupil dilation, skin becomes more sensitive. We come to normally only after we reach a safe spot. 4. The various actions of the body are controlled by hormones and coordinated by nervous system. 5. In these type of conditions nervous system and endocrine system work together to bring about control and coordination. 6. Another example for nervous and hormonal coordination. When the mother feeds the baby, the baby sucks the nipple for milk. This information is send to the brain by sensory nerve. Brain orders the pituitary gland to release the hormone oxytocin. Oxytocin helps in the ejection of milk from the mammary glands. |

Explain ionisation isomerism with suitable example. |
Answer» 1. Ionisation isomerism arises when an ionisable counter ion (simple ion) itself can act as a ligand. 2. The exchange of such counter ions with one or more ligands in the coordinatioin entity will result in ionisation isomers. These isomers will give different ions in solution. 3. For example, consider the coordination compound [Pt(en)2Cl2]Br2 . In this compound, both Br and CP have the ability to act as a ligand and the exchange of these two ions result in a different isomer [Pt (en)- , Br2]Cl,. In solution, the first compound Br- ions while the later gives CP ions and hence these compounds are called ionisation isomers. |
