Important Biology diagrams for CBSE Class 10 are given below:
1. Neuron
Neurons or the nerve cells form the basic components of the nervous system. A typical neuron
possesses a cell body called as soma, hair like structures called as dendrites and an axon. Dendrites are
thin structures that arise from the cell body. These dendrites acquire information from synapses via
neurotransmitters and convert them into electrical impulses. These impulses are further carried over to
the cell body.

2. Brain
A human brain is composed of three main parts- the forebrain, the midbrain and the hindbrain. These
three parts have specific functions.
 Forebrain: This consists of the cerebrum, hypothalamus, and thalamus.

 Midbrain: Consists of the tectum and tegmentum.
 Hindbrain: Is made of the cerebellum, medulla, and pons.
3. Reflex Arc
The pathway of a reflex action is called reflex arc. In a reflex arc the stimulus is received by the
receptors (sense organs) and it passes through the sensory nerves to the spinal cord. From the spinal
cord the information is passes through the motor nerves to the effectors (muscles/glands) for the
response.

7. Human Respiratory System
It consists of the following parts:
 Nasal cavity: It facilitates the intake of air. It is lined with hair and mucus to filter the air and remove
dust and dirt.
 Pharynx: It is a passage behind the nasal chamber and serves as the common passageway for both
air and food.
 Larynx: Also known as the sound box as it helps in the generation of sound and thus helps us in
communicating.
 Epiglottis: It is a flap-like structure that covers the glottis and prevents the entry of food into the
windpipe.
 Trachea: It is a long tube passing through the mid-thoracic cavity.
 Bronchi: The trachea divides into left and right bronchi.
 Bronchioles: Each bronchus is further divided into finer channels known as bronchioles
 Alveoli: The bronchioles end up into the balloon-like structures known as the alveoli
 Lungs: We have a pair of lungs, which are sac-like structures and covered by a double-layered
membrane known as pleura.

8. Nutrition in Amoeba
Amoeba is a unicellular animal. It takes in food by forming finger like projections called pseudopodia
and forms a food vacuole. Inside the food vacuole the food is digested and absorbed. The undigested
food is then sent out through the surface of the cell.
9. Human Male Reproductive System

 Testicles (testes): A pair of oval-shaped organ masked in a pouch called scrotum. Testes are
responsible for the production of the sperms and male hormone, testosterone.
 Epididymis: The sperms formed in testes come out and go into a coiled tube called epididymis. Here
the sperms get matured.
 Vas deferens: From epididymis, sperms are passed to urethra through the muscular tube called vas
deferens.
 Accessory glands: This includes three glands namely, seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and Cowper’s
gland. The secretions from the three glands mix to form a fluid called semen. Semen nourishes the
sperm, increases the volume and helps in lubrication.
 Penis: Penis is a cylindrical tube which serves as both reproductive organ as well as excretory organ.
It delivers sperms into the vagina during sexual intercourse.

10. Human Female Reproductive System
 A pair of ovaries: Ovaries produce and store ovum in them. They also produce a female hormone
called estrogen.
 Fallopian tubes (Oviducts): They are the site of fertilization. They connect ovaries with the uterus.
 Uterus: Uterus is the site of development for the embryo.
 Cervix: It is located at the lowermost portion of the uterus and is involved in connecting the uterus
and the vagina.
 Vagina: It is the part which connects cervix to the external female body parts. It is the route for penis
during coitus as well as a foetus during delivery.
11. Budding in Yeast and Hydra
Budding is a method of reproduction in unicellular organisms like yeast and hydra. In this method a
bud like projection is formed on the body of the organism. The bud then develops into a new individual.
It then separates from the parent and forms an independent individual.
12. Regeneration in Planaria and Hydra
Regeneration is a method of reproduction in which a part of the body of an organism if cut or broken,
can develop into a new individual.
13. Fragmentation in Spirogyra
In this method the body of a simple multicellular organism breaks up into smaller pieces on maturation
and each fragment develops into new individuals.
14. Longitudinal Section (LS) Of A Flower
This flower contains both male and female reproductive parts. The female reproductive part of the
flower is known as pistil or carpel. It consists of three subsections stigma, stile and ovary as shown in
the following diagram of longitudinal section of flower.
The male reproductive part of the flower is known as stamen. It consists of two subsections anther and
filament which are clearly shown in the longitudinal section of flower.
15. Germination of Pollen on Stigma (Fertilisation in flowering plants)

After the pollen grain is transferred to the stigma it produces a pollen tube which passes through the
style and enters the ovary and ovule. In the ovule the male germ cell fuses with the female germ cell
to produce zygote. This process of formation of single celled zygote is called fertilisation. Zygote then
divides several times and forms the embryo which then develops into the seed and the ovary develops
into the fruit.
16. Mendel’s Dihybrid Cross

Mendel selected pea plants having two pairs of characters- shape and colour of seeds.He selected plants
having round yellow seeds (RRYY) and wrinkled green seeds (rryy) and cross pollinated them. He
obtained all plants with round yellow seeds (RrYy) in F1 generation. When these plants were self
pollinated in the F2 generation then out of 16 plants, 9 had round yellow (RrYy) seeds, 3 had round
green (Rryy) seeds, 3 had wrinkled yellow (rrYy) seeds and 1 had wrinkled green (rryy) seeds. So, in
F2 generations 4 different traits wrinkled-yellow, round-yellow, wrinkled-green seeds and round-green
were obtained in the ratio 9:3:3:1.
