testing amongst the Resonance students.
1. There are four tiny organisms A,B,C and D. The organism A is a parasitic protozoan which causes a
disease known as kala-azar.The organism B is a microscopic single-celled animal which causes
malaria disease in human beings. The organism C is a unicellular animal which can change its body
shape according to need, it has no fixed shape.The organism D is also a unicellular animal which is
slippeer-shaped having a large number of tiny hair all around its body.
(a) Name the organisms A, B,C and D
(b) Name the one characteristic body feature of organism A.
(c) Name the insect which carries organism B and transmits it from one person to another.

(e) Where do organisms C and D live ?
2. When a moist slice of bread was kept aside for a few days then some organism grew on it to form a
white cottony mass which later turned black.When this slice of bread was observed through a
magnifying glass, then fine thread-like projections and thin stems having bulb-like structures at the
top were seen.

of bread ?
(b) How did this organism grow on the moist slice of bread automatically ?
(c) How did this organism grow on the moist slice of bread automatically ?
(d) What name is given to the knob-like structures and what do they contain ?
(e) What is the name of this method of reproduction ?
(f) Name one unicellular organism which reproduces by this method.
(g) Name two non-flowering plants which reproduces by this method.
3. X and Y are two human beings.The organ A in the reproductive system of X releases a mature
gamete B once a month which goes into a tube-like structure C through a funnel-like opening.The
organ D in the reproductive system of Y makes and releases gametes E which pass through a duct
F and are introduced by an organ of Y, into the body of X.B and E fuse together in C to form a new
cell G. The cell G divides repeatedly to form a ball of cells H which gets embedded in the lining of
organ I of reproductive system of X where it grows and develops into a baby.
(a) Name (i) organ A, and (ii) gemete B. (b) Write two names of tube-like structure C.
(c) Name (i) organ D, and (ii) gamete E. (d) Write two names of duct F.

4. The human males use a device X made of a very thin rubber sheet as a covering on the male organ
to prevent pregnancy.This device traps the gametes Y in it. In ordr to prevent pregnancy, the human
females use a device z which is a circle of rubber with a metal spring around int. The device Z is put
inside the vagina to cover the cervix, It stops Y from going into the uterus.
