श्वास क्रिया की दर से क्या अभिप्राय है? |
|
Answer» श्वसन-क्रिया सामान्यतः एक अनैच्छिक क्रिया है। एक सामान्य रूप से स्वस्थ व्यक्ति में यह क्रिया 15-18 बार प्रति मिनट की दर से होती है। शिशु अवस्था में इसकी दर काफी अधिक (25-40 बार प्रति मिनट तक) होती है। यदि समय का आकलन किया जाए तो प्रत्येक वयस्क व्यक्ति प्रति 4 सेकण्ड में यह क्रिया एक बार करता है। इसमें 1.5 सेकण्ड प्र:श्वसन के लिए तथा 2.5 सेकण्ड नि:श्वसन के लिए होता है। श्वसन क्रिया की इस दर को आवश्यकतानुसार नियमित तथा संचालित करने का दायित्व मस्तिष्क में स्थित एक जोड़े श्वास केन्द्र का होता है। ये केन्द्र श्वसन-क्रिया से सम्बन्धित विभिन्न प्रकार की पेशियों, पसलियों तथा तन्तुपट आदि के संकुचन एवं शिथिलन पर नियन्त्रण बनाए रखते हैं। दौड़ने, भागने, व्यायाम करने, खेलने-कूदने अथवा अन्य शारीरिक कार्य करने पर श्वास-दर बढ़ जाती है। ज्वर आदि की स्थिति में भी श्वास-दर में वृद्धि हो जाती है। इसका कारण है-उपर्युक्त दशाओं में अधिक ऊर्जा की खपत होने के कारण अधिक एवं अतिरिक्त ऊर्जा की आवश्यकता। श्वसन-क्रिया पूर्णरूप से अनैच्छिक क्रिया है, परन्तु उसे व्यायाम, योगाभ्यास आदि के द्वारा आंशिक रूप से ऐच्छिक बनाया जा सकता है। |

खेल भावना से आप क्या समझते हैं? |
|
Answer» जब हम कोई भी खेल खेलते हैं, तो उसमें हारते हैं या जीतते हैं। हमारा पूरा प्रयास होता है कि हम जीतें। पर सदैव ऐसा नहीं हो पाता। अगर हम जीतते हैं तो हमें हारने वाले खिलाड़ी के प्रयास की सराहना करनी चाहिए। इसी प्रकार हारने पर हमें जीतने वाले खिलाड़ी को बधाई देनी चाहिए। हार को विनम्रतापूर्वक स्वीकार कर पुन: तैयारी में जुट जाना चाहिए। जीतने पर अहंकार नहीं होना चाहिए। हमें प्रतिद्वन्दी खिलाड़ियों के प्रति मन में ईर्ष्या-द्वेष का भाव नहीं रखना चाहिए, बल्कि उनसे सीखने का प्रयास करना चाहिए। यही खेल भावना है। |

Given reason :A sudden drop in active absorption of minerals is noticed if roots are deprived of oxygen supply. |
|
Answer» 1. Absorption of mineral ions from soil against concentration gradient is known as active absorption. 2. It requires energy (ATP) for absorption by absorbing root cell. 3. The source of energy is respiration of cells for supply of ATE 4. When the roots are deprived of oxygen, their respiration process is affected and thus energy is not supplied in required amount. Hence, a sudden drop in absorption of minerals is noticed. |
|
| 19. |
Given reason :In Donnan equilibrium of passive absorption of minerals concentration of cations increases inside the cell. |
|
Answer» 1. Minerals exist in soil in the form of charged particles. 2. Certain negatively charged (anions) get accumulated on the inner side of cell membrane after their entry inside cell. 3. These anions cannot diffuse out through semipermeable cell membrane. 4. Thus additional mobile cautions are needed inside the cell to balance these fixed anions. 5. Hence, the concentration of cations increases inside the cell. |

What is growth? What are its characteristics ? |
|
Answer» Growth : Growth is a vital process which brings about an irreversible increase in an organism or its part with respect to its size, weight, form and volume. Characteristics of growth: 1. Growth is a permanent increase in size, weight, shape, volume and dry weight of a plant. 2. The change occurring due to growth is permanent and irreversible. 3. Growth is an intrinsic process caused due to internal activities. 4. Growth occurs by cell division and cell elongation followed by cell maturation which lead to the formation of different types of tissues. 5. Growth in plants is mostly localized, i.e. restricted to some regions of plants possessing meristematic tissues or meris terns. 6. Growth has a qualitative aspect where development takes place in an orderly manner and differentiation leads to higher and more complex state. |

Give the equations of amino acid synthesis. |
|
Answer» 1. Macromolecule proteins are made up of building blocks of amino acids. 2. Amino acids are synthesized by two methods – Reductive animation and transamination. 3. Reductive amination – Ammonia reacts with alpha keto glutaric acid to form glutamic acid. \(\alpha\) ketoglutric acid + NH4 + NaDPH2 \(\overset{Glutamate\,dehydrogenase}\longrightarrow\) + Glutamate +H2O + NADP 4. Transamination – Amino group of one amino acid is transferred to other carboxylic acid at keto position.

Explain lag phase, log phase and steady phase of growth. |
|
Answer» 1. In plants, growth curve is always sigmoid, i.e. S-shaped. This is because growth starts slowly during formative phase, becomes rapid during elongation phase and finally slows down to a steady state during the maturation phase. 2. The standard growth curve shows three phases, viz. lag phase, log phase and stationary phase. (i) Lag phase or initial growth phase : This is the initial phase of growth. During this phase of growth, the rate of growth is slow. It corresponds to formative phase of growth where new cells are formed due to cell division. (ii) Log phase or exponential phase : This is the second phase of growth. During this phase, the growth is rapid and maximum. It corresponds to the phase of cell elongation. (iii) Stationary phase or steady phase : The stationary phase is the third and last phase of growth. In this phase, growth slows down and becomes steady. The cells undergo differentiation during stationary phase. |
