What is the difference between the manner in which movement takes place in a sensitive plant and the movement in our legs

Q. No. 12: What is the difference between the manner in which movement takes place in a sensitive plant and the movement in our legs?
Ans:


Movement in sensitive plants

Movement in our legs
1
The movement in a sensitive plant is a response to stimulus(touch) which is a involuntary action.
1
Movement in our legs is a voluntary action.

2
No special tissue is there for the transfer of information

2
A complete system CNS and PNS is there for the information exchange.
3
Plant cells do not have specialised protein for movements.
3
Animal cells have specialised protein which help muscles to contract.


Compare and contrast nervous and hormonal mechanisms for control and coordination in animals

Q. No. 11:Compare and contrast nervous and hormonal mechanisms for control and coordination in animals.

Ans:

Nervous control

Hormonal Control
1
It is consist of nerve impulses between PNS, CNS and Brain.
1
It consists of endocrine system which secretes hormones directly into blood.
2
Here response time is very short.
2
Here response time is very long.
3
Nerve impulses are not specific in their action.
3
Each hormone has specific actions.
4
The flow of information is rapid.
4
The flow of information is very slow.



How are involuntary actions and reflex actions different from each other

Q. No. 10: How are involuntary actions and reflex actions different from each other?
Ans:
Involuntary action is the set of muscle movement which do not require thinking. But it is controlled by brain for example beating of heart beat.

While on the other hand, the reflex action is rapid and spontaneous action in response to any stimulus. For example closing of eyes immediately when bright light is focused.

What is the need for a system of control and coordination in an organism

Q. No. 9: What is the need for a system of control and coordination in an organism?

Ans:  There are various organs in an organism. These organs must be carefully controlled and coordinated for the survival of an organisms. In the body of an organism various fluids are secreted from the glands of the endocrine system. These hormones are responsible for the overall growth and development of an organism. All others daily decision that includes voluntary and involuntary action are controlled by central nervous system(CNS). 

How does chemical coordination occur in plants

Q. No. 8: How does chemical coordination occur in plants?

 Ans: Chemical coordination in plants are occurred in plants with the help of fluids secreted in plants known as phytohormones or plant hormones. These hormones regulate the growth of the plants. For example auxin responsible for the growth of the plants and the Cytokinin helps in cell division in the fast growing part of the plant such as plant hormones.

Which signals will get disrupted in case of a spinal cord injury

Q. No. 7:  Which signals will get disrupted in case of a spinal cord injury?

Ans: In case of the spinal cord injury, the signals coming from the nerves as well as the signals coming to the receptors will be disrupted. As both these signals meet in a bundle in spinal cord so there is any spinal cord injury then both these signals are disrupted.

if sin-1x= y, then

if sin-1x= y, then
if sin-1x= y, then

Answer:Here we can see that if sin-1x=y then y must be the principle value branch of the sine inverse so now we know that the principal value branch of the sine inverse is [-pi/2 , pi/2],   so the correct answer is option (B).

37 Answer the following:
(a) The top of the atmosphere is at about 400 kV with respect to the surface of the earth, corresponding to an electric field that decreases with altitude. Near the surface of the earth, the field is about 100 Vm–1. Why then do we not get an electric shock as we step out of our house into the open? (Assume the house to be a steel cage so there is no field inside!)
(b) A man fixes outside his house one evening a two metre high insulating slab carrying on its top a large aluminium sheet of area 1m2. Will he get an electric shock if he touches the metal sheet next morning?
(c) The discharging current in the atmosphere due to the small conductivity of air is known to be 1800 A on an average over the globe. Why then does the atmosphere not discharge itself completely in due course and become electrically neutral? In other words, what keeps the atmosphere charged?
(d) What are the forms of energy into which the electrical energy of the atmosphere is dissipated during a lightning? (Hint: The earth has an electric field of about 100 Vm–1 at its surface in the downward direction, corresponding to a surface charge density = –10–9 C m–2. Due to the slight conductivity of the atmosphere up to about 50 km (beyond which it is good conductor), about + 1800 C is pumped every second into the earth as a whole. The earth, however, does not get discharged since thunderstorms and lightning occurring continually all over the globe pump an equal amount of negative charge on the earth.)
