ASSIGNMENT 2
9th

1. A cell will swell up if


(a) The concentration of water molecules in the cell is higher than the
concentration of water molecules in the surrounding medium.
(b) The concentration of water molecules in the surrounding medium
is higher than the concentration of water molecules in the cell.
(c) The concentration of water molecules is the same in the cell and
in the surrounding medium
(d) The concentration of water molecules does not matter
2. Which of the following statement marks as a difference between
plant cell and animal cell?
(a) Plant cells have cell wall which animal cells do not.
(b) Plant cells do not have vacuole while animal cells do have.
(c) Plant cells have only cell membrane while animal cells have both
cell wall as well as cell membrane.
(d) Plant cells have more plastids while animal cells have few
plastids.

3. Osmosis is a process by which molecules of a solvent tend to pass


through a semipermeable membrane from a less concentrated
solution into a more concentrated one. Can you pick out the option
among the following which does not belong to this process?
(a) The movement of water across a semipermeable membrane is
affected by the amount of substances dissolved in it.
(b) Membranes are made of organic molecules such as proteins and
lipids.
(c) Molecules soluble in organic solvents can easily pass through the
membrane.
(d) Plasma membranes contain chitin sugar in plants.

4. Rahul’s mother was going to make pickle. For this she cut the
vegetables into small pieces and put them in the sun for few hours. Rahul
was observing all her activities very curiously and asked his mother if why
she had put the salted vegetables in the sun. among the following what
might be the most appropriate answer for his question?
(a) So that the pickle may get extra flavour.
(b) So that the cut vegetables may absorb the vitamin d as a nutrient from
the sun rays.
(c) So that the vegetables may lose all the water by diffusion and
evaporation and become dry.
(d) So that the salt may get evenly and properly absorbed by the
vegetables.

5. In a test, a teacher collected the answers written by four students as


the definition of osmosis as given below. Read carefully and select the
correct one.
(a) Movement of water molecules from a region of higher concentration to
a region of lower concentration through a semipermeable membrane.
(b) Movement of solvent molecules from its higher concentration to lower
concentration.
(c) Movement of solvent molecules from higher concentration to lower of
solution through a permeable membrane.
(d) Movement of solute molecules from lower concentration to higher
concentration of solution through a semipermeable membrane.
