A unicellular animal P having no fixed shape ingests a food particle by forming temporary finger-like projections Q. The food particle is engulfed with a little surrounding water to form a temporary stomach R inside it. The chemicals S from surrounding cytoplasm enter into R and break down food into small and soluble molecules by chemical reactions. The digested food is absorbed directly into cytoplasm by the process T. The undigested food is thrown out of the body by the rupture of a cell organelle U in a process called V.

1. Name the unicellular animal P.
2. What are (i) Q, and (ii) R?
3. Name (i) chemical S, and (ii) process T.
4. Name (i) organelle U, and (ii) process V.

A liquid X of colour Y circulates in the human body only in one direction: from body tissues to the heart. Among other things, liquid X contains germs from cells and dead cells. The liquid X is cleaned of germs and dead cells by a special type of white blood cells called Z. This cleaned liquid is then put into blood circulatory system in subclavian veins.

1. What is (i) liquid X and (ii) colour Y?
2. What are Z.
3. The liquid X is somewhat similar to a component of blood. Name this component.
4. Why is liquid X not red?

The partially digested food coming from the stomach of a person enters a long and narrow organ A in his body. The organ A receives the secretion of two glands: liver and pancreas. Liver secretes a greenish - yellow liquid B which is normally stored in the organ C. Pancreas secretes pancreatic juice which contains three digestive enzymes D, E and F. The intestinal juice completes the process of digestion of food. The inner wall of organ A has millions of tiny finger - like projections G which help in the rapid absorption of digested food into blood stream. The undigested part of food then passes into wider tube H which absorbs most of the water from undigested food. The last part of tube H called I stores this undigested food (or waste) for some time. The undigested food is then passed out though opening J as faeces in the process known as K.

1. Name the organ A.
2. Name liquid B and organ C.
3. What are the digestive enzymes D, E and F?
4. Name the projections G present on the inner wall of organ A.
5. Name Tube H, Part I, Opening J and Process K.

1. Draw a sectional view of the human heart and label on it: Aorta, Pulmonary arteries, Vena cava, Left ventricle.
2. Why is double circulation of blood necessary in human beings?

Explain with a schematic representation the exchange of gases in tissues.

Draw a diagram of the human heart and label its parts.

An organism A which cannot move from one place to another, makes a simple food B from the substances C and D available in the environment. This food is made in the presence of a green coloured substance E present in organs F in the presence of light energy in a process called G. Some of the simple food B also gets converted into a complex food H for storage purposes. The food H gives a blue-black colour with dilute iodine solution.

1. What is (i) organism A, (ii) food B and (iii) food H?
2. What are C and D?
3. Name (i) green coloured substance E, and (ii) organ F.
4. What is the process G?

Write the difference between nutrition in plants and animals.

How are fats digested in our bodies? Where does this process take place?

2. What is kept in watch-glass in figure 'a' and why?
3. Write the balanced chemical equation for the process of photosynthesis.
4. When do the desert plants takeup carbon dioxide and perform photosynthesis?
