Question 81 Mark
In order to study and prove a particular physiological process in plants, the following experiment was set up. Study the same and then answer the question that follow:

In order to obtain accurate results, the bottle 'C' should be covered with black cloth. Why?
Answer
The bottle 'C' when covered with a black cloth will have no scope for photosynthesis. Hence, only the process of respiration can be observed.

Question 101 Mark
In order to study and prove a particular physiological process in plants, the following experiment was set up. Study the same and then answer the question that follows:

Name the physiological process being studied.
Answer
The experiment was set up to study that $CO _2$ is given off from living plant material which performs respiration.

Question 111 Mark
Given below is a set of six experimental set-ups (A-F), kept in this state for about 24 hours
.Image
What conclusion can you draw from this experiment?
Answer
It can be concluded from this experiment that $CO _2$ is produced during respiration.

Question 121 Mark
Given below is a set of six experimental set-ups (A-F), kept in this state for about 24 hours.
Image
What is the purpose of the set-up F?

 
Answer
Set-up F acts as a control for the experiment, where all the conditions are similar except for the plant part, which is missing.

Question 131 Mark
Given below is a set of six experimental set-ups (A-F), kept in this state for about 24 hours.
Image
What is the purpose of keeping a test-tube containing limewater in each flask? 
Answer
Limewater absorbs $CO_2$ present in the flasks. If $CO_2 $is produced, limewater turns milky.

Question 171 Mark
The following diagram refers to an apparatus which is used to demonstrate a physiological process:

What is the purpose of keeping boiled peas soaked in a disinfectant in test tube Y?
Answer
In test tube Y, boiled peas soaked in disinfectant are kept because the boiled seeds are dead and cannot respire. Therefore, the process of respiration does not take place in test tube Y.

Question 181 Mark
The following diagram refers to an apparatus which is used to demonstrate a physiological process:

What is the purpose of keeping potassium hydroxide solution in test tubes X and Y?
Answer
Potassium hydroxide solution is kept in test tube X and Y to check the presence of $CO_2 $, as KOH can absorb $CO_2 $ if it is produced.

Question 191 Mark
Can cell respiration occur in any organism at a temperature of about 65°C? Give reason.
Answer
Cell respiration cannot occur in any organism at a temperature of about 65°C because the enzymes involved in respiration become inactivated at high temperatures.

Question 211 Mark
How is tilling of the soil useful for the crops growing in it?
Answer
Tilling makes the soil porous and airy. The underground parts of the plants get a sufficient amount of oxygen for respiration. In this way, tilling helps the crops to grow faster.
