a) The parts of the plants that are being touched, use


1
electro-chemical impulses for a movement.
2

For this movement plant cells change their shape


by changing the amount of water in them. 1

As a result of this change plant cells either swells


or shrinks and therefore change the shape of
1
leaves.

a) Muscle cells receive nerve impulses from neurons.
2

Muscle cells convert received electric impulses into


1
chemical signals.

Then the special proteins in the muscle cells

change their shape and arrangement

Due to this new arrangement of proteins the

muscle cells either elongate or become short.

36. Red flowering (RR) 4 O’clock plant is crossed with white

flowering (WW) 4 O’clock plant. There are 25% red flowering,


25% white flowering and 50% hybrids are obtained in F2

generation. Then,
i) What are the characteristics of plants of F1

generation ?
ii) Show the results of F2 generation with the help of a

checker board and mention the genotypic ratio.

iii) Determine the trait that can be considered either as

‘dominant’ or ‘recessive’ by analysing the results of


both F 1 and F 2 generations.

OR

Read, analyse the given situations and answer the questions

given below :

Situation 1 : Many vegetables and fruits are now

available in different colours and sizes.

Situation 2 : The colour of the wings in the population

of Drosophila insects is turning to black

due to the increase of carbon in some

industrial areas.

i) In which of the situations the genetic drift happens

fastly and why ?

ii) Are traits inherit in both of the situations or not ?

Justify your answer.

In F 2 -generation 50% hybrids

So, that neither red colour nor, white colour is dominant /

recessive. 1 3

i) In situation (1)

Because, the changes illustrated here are done by

artificial selection. / To get different varieties crossing

has been conducted artificially. 1

ii) In situation (1), traits inheritance may happen or may


1
not happen.

But, in the situation (2), the genetic variations and

their flow will take place. Since it is natural selection

and traits can be inherited. 1 3

38. a) Briefly explain the formation of urine in nephrons.

b) How food materials are transported in higher plants ?

Explain.

Ans. :

a) Formation of urine in nephrons :

Nephron is structural and functional unit of a

kidney.

The thin walled capillaries are the filtration units in


1
the kidney.
2

Each capillary cluster in the kidney associated with

cup shaped structure of nephron and takes part in


1
the filtration of blood.
2

In this stage some substances in the initial filtrate,

such as glucose, amino acids, salts and major

amount of water are selectively re-absorbed. 1

The liquid by-product that forms after this process is

urine.

Phloem translocates soluble products of photo-


synthesis, amino acids and other substances from
1
the leaves to all the parts of the plants.

Translocation takes place in sieve tube, with the


help of companion cell, both in upward and

downward directions.

Osmotic pressure helps to move the materials from


1
phloem to other tissues of having low pressure.
