    II. SHORT ANSWER QUESTIONS


    1. In a bisexual flower in spite of the young stamens being removed artificially, the flower
    produces fruit. Provide a suitable explanation for the above situation.
    2. Can you consider cell division as a type of reproduction in unicellular organism? Give one
    reason.
    3. Colonies of yeast fail to multiply in water, but multiply in sugar solution. Give one reason
    for this.

    7. What changes are observed in the uterus subsequent to implantation of the young
    embryo?
    8. What would be the ratio of chromosome number between an egg and its zygote? How is
    the sperm genetically different from the egg?

    III. LONG ANSWER QUESTIONS


    1. Distinguish between pollination and fertilisation. Mention the site and product of
    fertilisation in a flower. Draw a neat, labelled diagram of a pistil showing pollen tube
    growth and its entry into the ovule.
    2. Distinguish between a gamete and zygote. Explain their roles in sexual reproduction.
    3. Draw the diagram of a flower and label the four whorls. Write the names of gamete
    producing organs in the flower
    4. What is placenta? Mention its role during pregnancy?
    5. What are various ways to avoid pregnancy? Elaborate any one method.
    6. How does fertilisation take place? Fertilisation occurs once in a month. Comment.

    IV. ASSERTION REASON QUESTION


    1. Assertion(A) : Asexual reproduction is a primitive type of reproduction.
    Reason (R) : Asexual reproduction involves only mitotic cell division.
    Ans : Option a – Both assertion and reason are true and given reason is the correct
    explanation of the assertion
    2. Assertion (A): In females the egg is carried from the ovary to the womb through a thin oviduct or
    fallopian tube.

    Reason (R): The uterus opens into the vagina through the cervix.
    Ans : Option b – Both assertion and reason are true but the reason is not the correct
    explanation of assertion
    V. CASE STUDY QUESTION
    1. Chromosomes in the nucleus of a cell contain information for inheritance of features from parents
    to next generation in the form of DNA (Deoxyribo Nucleic Acid) molecules. The DNA in the cell nucleus
    is the information source for making proteins. If the information is changed, different proteins will be
    made. Different proteins will eventually lead to altered body designs. Therefore, a basic event in
    reproduction is the creation of a DNA copy. Cells use chemical reactions to build copies of their DNA.

    i) What is the importance of variation?


    ii) Which mode of reproduction does not show much variation?
    iii) What are the different modes of reproduction of single celled organism?
    iv) What are the features of sexual reproduction?
    v) Which mode of reproduction is better and why?
