Note to the teacher As we present this revised edition of the Science Textbook, we would like to express our deepest gratitude to the learners and the teaching community for their enthusiastic responses. In science some concepts could be subjected to change from time to time as new theories and principles are constantly being evolved. We have tried to present facts and concepts of science (both concrete and abstract) in a visually appealing manner without detracting from the content. Activity based learning is now accepted as the basis of science education. These activities should be regarded as a means for open-ended investigation rather than for verification of principles/content given in the textbook has been designed to facilitate low cost activities and experiments using locally available materials. With a view to streamlining the activities, we have now segregated them into three groups: y I Do y We Do - activities to be done by an individual learner. - activities to be done by a group of learners and

y We Observe - activities to be demonstrated by the teacher. The third group of activities have a higher degree of difficulty or require careful handling as it may involve dealing with chemicals, electricity etc., The More to know snippets in the text represents some unusual and interesting facts or information in which the students need not be examined. The evaluation section is nothing but another space for learning in a different manner. As the focus is on understanding, rote learning is to be discouraged thoroughly. Application of learnt ideas, problem solving skills and critical thinking is to be encouraged. There could be scope for more than one answer to a question, which should be acknowledged always. To facilitate further reference, books and websites have been suggested at the end of each lesson. Suggestions and constructive criticism are most welcome. Valuable suggestions will be duly incorporated. - Authors sciencetextbook@gmail.com

Introduction

CHAPTER - 1

There are millions and millions of different organisms living along with us and around us. Could we remember all by their names? Biologists have helped us achieve this by sorting all living things into meaningful groups. Animals originated approximately 600 million years ago. More than 2 million existing varieties of animals have been identified. Of these more than 12,72,000 are invertebrates and fewer than 62,000 species are vertebrates. The system of sorting living organisms into various groups based on similarities and differences is called classification. taxon is the kingdom and the smallest is the species.

TAXONOMY
The branch of biology dealing with identification, description, nomenclature and classification of living organisms is called taxonomy. Biological classification helps us to identify organisms and also recognize those already classified. Carolus Linnaeus classified organisms based on the similarities and differences into small groups called taxa.

Levels of classification
According to the order of arrangement the different levels of taxa (singular taxon) are Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus and Species.The largest

Criteria for classification

1.  Grade of organisation animals are grouped into unicellular and multicellular based on the number of cells.

MORE TO KNOW Carolus Linnaeus, the Swedish Botanist is regarded as the father of modern taxonomy. (1707-1778) 4 Aristotle, the father of Zoology was the first to classify animals based on their similarities and differences. (384-322 BC)

c.  Eucoelomate Animals with a true coelom (eg. Earth worm) Acoelomate
ectoderm mesoderm endoderm

Pseudocoelomate
ectoderm mesoderm endoderm coelom

2. Germ layers Germ layers are collection of cells formed during development of an embryo. These layers give rise to different organs as the embryo become an adult. Based on the number of layers the multicellular animals are classified into diploblastic (two germ layers ectoderm,endoderm) and triploblastic (three germ layers - ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm) animals. 3. Symmetry it refers to the arrangement of body parts around a central axis. Based on symmetry, animals are classified into a. Asymmetrical. eg. Amoeba b. Radially symmetrical. eg. Hydra c. Bilaterally symmetrical. eg. Earth worm 4. Coelom the fluid filled space between the body wall and digestive tract is called coelom. Based on the nature of coelom, animals are divided into a.  Acoelomate Animals without a coelom. eg. Tape worm b.  Pseudocoelomate Animals with a false coelom. eg. Round worm 5

ACTiViTY 1.1 I DO

1.1. INVERTEBRATES
Invertebrates are classified into nine phyla namely 1. Phylum Protozoa (eg. Amoeba) 2. Phylum Porifera (eg. Sponges) 3. Phylum Coelenterata (eg. Hydra) 4. Phylum Platyhelminthes (eg. Tape worm) 5. Phylum Aschelminthes (eg. Roundworm) 6. Phylum Annelida (eg. Earthworm) 7. Phylum Arthropoda (eg. Cockroach) 8. Phylum Mollusca (eg. Snail) and 9. Phylum Echinodermata (eg. Starfish)

 collect a sample of water from I a fresh water pond and I prepare a micro slide. Afterwards adding a drop of methylene blue stain to the water. After I view the slide under a microscope, I try to find an amoeba.

2.  Phylum Porifera
These are non-motile marine animals attached to some solid support such as rocks or shells. These are multicellular animals with perforated(having holes) bodies. The cells are loosely arranged without the formation of tissues.The pores lead to a canal system which helps in circulating water throughout the body to bring in food and oxygen. They possess an internal skeleton made up of calcareous or silicious spicules. Reproduction is both by asexual (budding or gemmule formation) or sexual method (fusion of male and female gametes). eg. Sycon, Sponges

1.  Phylum Protozoa
These are generally unicellular microscopic animals. Locomotion takes place by cilia, flagella or pseudopodia. Mode of nutrition may be holozoic, saprozoic or parasitic. They reproduce asexually by binary or multiple fission and sexually by conjugation. eg. Amoeba, Paramoecium
Cilia Contractile vacuole

Micro nucleus Macro nucleus Food vacuole

Sponges

3. Phylum Coelenterata
Paramoecium

These animals are aquatic with radial symmetry. They may be sessile(Polyps) or free floating(medusa). There is a 6

ANIMAL KINGDOM
distinct body cavity called coelenteron or gastro vascular cavity. The body bears slender, flexible tentacles around the mouth. The tentacles at their tip bears stinging cells called cnidoblasts which have poisonous barbs to sting their prey. They are used for protection and for attack. Reproduction takes place either by asexual (budding or fission) or by sexual method (by gametes). eg. Sea anemone, Hydra

4. Phylum Platyhelminthes (flat worms)

These are flat, leaf like, ribbon like organisms. They are triploblastic, bilaterally symmetrical and acoelomate animals. These are either free living (eg. Planaria) or parasitic (eg. Tape worm). Parasites have organs of attachment such as hooks and suckers. They are mostly hermaphrodites (i.e. male and female sex organs are present in the same individual). eg. Planaria, Liverfluke
Tape worm Planaria

Sea anemone

5.  Phylum Aschelminthes (round or thread worms)

The body is cylindrical, unsegmented and protected by a resistant cuticle. The animals are bilaterally symmetrical, triploblastic and pseudocoelomate. Circulatory and respiratory systems are absent. Sexes are separate(male and female) and fertilization is internal(inside the body). These are familiar as parasitic worms causing elephantiasis (filarial worm) and ascariasis (ascaris).

The Australian sea wasp or box jelly fish (Chironex fleckeri) is the most venomous coelenterate in the world. It has enough poison to kill about sixty people. ActiVitY 1.2 I DO

Do you know about vermicompost? Which animal plays a vital role in vermicomposting?

CHAPTER - 1

Earthworm

The body is elongated, cylindrical and segmented (i.e. the body is divided into compartments called segments). They move with the help of setae and parapodia. They exhibit cephalisation (formation of a distinct head) and metamerism (segmental repetition of identical organs). eg. Earthworm, leech

Butterfly

7. Phylum Arthropoda
Do you know which is the largest phylum? Do you know which is the most successful group of animals on earth? Arthropods are the largest group of organisms and insects are the most successful group of animals. It includes crustaceans (eg. crab, prawn), insects (eg. butterfly, cockroach), arachnids (eg. spider, scorpion) and myriapods

(centipedes and millipedes). These forms have jointed legs with a chitinous exoskeleton. The jointed limbs are used for locomotion, feeding and sensing. Their body is also segmented and grouped together to form head, thorax and abdomen. It is covered by a hard, firm external skeleton made up of a strong substance called chitin. Arthropods possess compound eyes. They have open type of circulation where blood vessels are absent and the body fluid circulates in the body cavity, bathing all the organs.

Scorpion

MORE TO KNOW EartHworms are referred to as Farmers Friend? Why? Earthworm plays a vital role in improving the fertility of the soil. It ploughs the land and assists in the recycling of organic matter for the efficient growth of the plants. The soil system is loosened, stirred up and aerated by the vertical migration of earthworms. HIRUDIN - is a naturally occurring protein in the salivary glands of Leeches that has a blood anticoagulant property. Hence blood fails to clot ensuring continuous flow of blood when the leech sucks the blood. This property is widely used in the field of medicine and used in the treatment of blood clotting disorders and in the development of anticoagulant pharmaceuticals . 8

ANIMAL KINGDOM
8. Phylum Mollusca
Molluscs form the second largest group of organisms. Body is soft, unsegmented and without appendages. It is surrounded by a thin, fleshy structure called mantle which secretes a hard calcareous shell. They move around with the help of a muscular foot. Respiration is usually by gills called ctenidia. eg. snail, mussel, oysters

9. Phylum Echinodermata
These are marine organisms. Their skin is covered by calcareous spines. Echinoderms are unique because they have a system of water-filled canals inside the body. These canals project out in the form of hundreds of tube feet on the underside of their body. A starfish moves with the help of tubefeet. Tube feet have suction cups at their ends and are powered by muscles and hydraulic force from the water-vascular system. The water-vascular system also helps in the exchange of gases, internal transport of nourishment, and excretion. eg.starfish, sea cucumber

1.2. VerteBrates
The Vertebrates are the most advanced group of organisms on Earth. These animals are larger in size than the invertebrates. They are coelomate , triploblastic and bilaterally symmetrical. They have a strong and flexible vertebral column made of a chain of cylindrical bones. Vertebrates also show characteristics that include body segmentation, closed blood circulation and presence of a well developed internal skeleton. They also have well developed brain. How do vertebrates differ from invertebrates? Sl.No. 1. 2. 3. Invertebrates They do not have a back bone. They include both unicellular and multicellular organisms. Vertebrates They have a distinct back bone. They include only multicellular organisms.

Vertebrates are classified into five classes as follows. 1. Pisces. 2. Amphibia 3. Reptilia 4. Aves 5. Mammalia

1. Pisces
These are aquatic animals and their skin is covered with over lapping scales which form the exoskeleton. The Endoskeleton is made up of either cartilage (tough, flexible tissue) eg. Shark or bone eg. Catla. The body is streamlined. Respiration is by gills which are covered by lid-like structure called an operculum on either side. Heart is two chambered (one auricle and one ventricle). These are poikilothermic animals. They are either oviparous or viviparous. 10

MORE TO KNOW Unforgiving fish? The stone fish is a highly poisonous fish in the world. The poison is carried in its skin and in sacs attached to razor sharp spines along its back. When attacked or even accidentally stepped on, the stone fish pushes its spines into the predator and releases the poison into the wounds which usually results in paralysis or death. MORE TO KNOW Amphibians are good indicators of environmental changes. They breathe partially through their skin which makes them sensitive to radiation, pollution and habitat destruction. Scientists believe amphibians can show the first signs of environmental emergencies. In the last 20 years, the number of amphibian species have declined, with some species becoming extinct due to acid rain, ozone depletion and chemical pollution.

4. Aves
Birds are characterized by the presence of feathers, modified forelimbs (wings), beak and air filled bones (pneumatic bones). These are homeothermic and oviparous which lay cledoic eggs (with shell) with large amount of yolk (reserve food). The hind limbs are modified for walking, swimming or clasping. The heart is four chambered. Fertilization is internal. Pigeon, Crow and Sparrow are examples of birds that we commonly see flying around us. Ostrich, penguin, emu and cassowary are examples of birds that do not fly.

Echolocation in Bats
Echolocation is also called bio sonar which is used by several animals like bats. These animals emit ultrasound waves and listen to the echoes of those calls that return from various object in the surroundings. They use these echoes to locate, range and identify the objects. It is used for navigation and for hunting in total darkness.

5. Mammalia
Mammals are Homeothermic vertebrates characterised by presence of milk producing glands (mammary glands). Their skin has hair as well as sweat and oil glands. Heterodont dentition (different types of teeth), external ears or pinnae, diaphragm (muscle which separate thorax and abdomen), four chambered heart, pulmonary respiration (lungs), internal fertilization and viviparity are other salient features.

1.3. Various modes of reproduction in animals

Lion with cub Hippopotamus with young one

Reproduction is the capacity of an organism to produce young ones of their own kind. Living things reproduce to ensure the continuation of their species. All animals have the ability to reproduce. The process of reproduction can be asexual or sexual. Sl.No. 1. Asexual Reproduction It involves a single parent. Sexual Reproduction It involves two parents (male and female) each capable of producing gametes. It involves the fusion of male and female gametes [(i.e.) Sperm and ovum] resulting in the formation of zygote.

2.

It does not involve the fusion of gametes.

14

ANIMAL KINGDOM
Asexual Reproduction
In asexual reproduction, new individuals are formed from a single parent. A single celled organism may simply divide and give rise to independent daughter cells. Some of the ways in which organisms reproduce asexually are multiple fission, binary fission, budding, gemmule formation and sporulation. Each daughter nucleus is surrounded by cytoplasm and plasma membrane and thus a number of daughter cells are formed. Each cell separates and leads an independent life.

Budding (eg. Hydra)

Binary fission (eg. Paramoecium)

Paramoecium is an unicellular organism which reproduces by binary fission. In this process a constriction appears at the centre which divides the nucleus and cytoplasm into two parts. Thus a single paramoecium is divided into two daughter cells.
Hydra with bud

Constriction

Nuclear Division

Gemmules (eg. Sponges)

Gemmules are internal buds found in sponges and are resistant to unfavourable condition. These buds have an outer thick layer with numerous air spaces and two inner chitinous layers. On the onset of favourable conditions, the cell mass comes out of the gemmule through an opening called the micropyle. Later the cell mass develops into a young sponge. AcTiViTY 1.6 I DO

Daughter Paramoecia

Binary fission in Paramoecium

Multiple Fission (eg. Amoeba)

Many protozoans reproduce by multiple fission under unfavourable condition. In this process, the nucleus of the parent cell divides repeatedly to form a number of daughter nuclei.

I observe a micro slide of binary fission in amoeba. 15

SCIENCE

Hydra reproduces asexually by budding. During budding the body wall of hydra produces an outgrowth (bud) due to repeated cell division at one specific site. This bud gradually grows in size and develops a mouth and tentacles at the free end. Soon a constriction appears at the point of contact and the daughter hydra gets separated from the mother and leads an independent life.

BIOLOGY

CHAPTER - 1
Advantages of Asexual reproduction
1. It requires only one parent. 2.  It does not involve gametes and fertilization. 3.  The young ones have identical characteristics of their parents.

Disadvantages of Asexual reproduction

1. Offspring do not show much variation from parents. This reduces the chances of having a variety that could lead to formation of new species after hundreds of years. 2. Undesirable characters are transfered from parent to offspring without any change.

Gemmule

Spore and cyst formation (eg. Plasmodium)

This type of reproduction is common among protozoan parasites such as plasmodium (malarial parasite). This method is also called sporulation. During unfavourable conditions, the protoplasm is condensed and covered by a thick, protective covering called the cyst. When conditions are favourable, the cyst gets dissolved. The protoplasm regains its original nature and undergoes multiple fission giving rise to numerous independent daughter cells. This process is called sporulation. MORE TO KNOW

Sexual reproduction
Sexual reproduction involves the production of sex cells or gametes. The male organism gives rise to male gamete or sperm and the female organism gives rise to the female gamete or the ovum. In sexual reproduction the male and female gametes fuse together to form a single cell called the zygote. The zygote grows to be a new adult. Gametes are produced in organs that are generally referred to as the gonads. The male gonad is the testis and the female gonad is the ovary. If an organism carries any one type of gonad it is said to be a unisexual organism. In this case the sexes are said to be separate: male and female. Bisexual organisms, also referred to as hermaphrodites, are those that possess both testis and ovary in the same body. Hydra and Tapeworm are examples of bisexual organisms. Unicellular organisms like Paramoecium are also known to reproduce sexually. Two Paramoecia come together, establish a bridge-

Regeneration
Animals like Sponges, Hydra, Planaria and Starfish exhibit regeneration. It is a complex process which involves the repair of damaged cells or tissues or redevelopment of severed part or formation of whole body from a small fragment.

Autotomy
It refers to the power of self cutting of body parts for defence. Examples Regeneration of arms in Starfish, regeneration of tail in House Lizard. 16

ANIMAL KINGDOM
like connection and exchange genetic material. Each of them separate and divide independently to give rise to daughter cells . This method of sexual reproduction is called conjugation. reproductive organ is the ovary which produce the ova or eggs. A sperm and an egg fuse to form a zygote. The fusion of sperm and ovum is called fertilization. The zygote further develops into an embryo and later becomes an adult.

1.4. FERTILIZATION
Fertilization is a process of fusion of haploid male and female gamete to form a diploid zygote.

Types of fertilization
The two types of fertilization are, (a) External fertilization The fusion of the gametes occurs outside the body of the animal. (eg. Frogs, Echinoderms) (b) Internal fertilization The fusion  of the gametes occur within the body of the female parent. (eg. Reptiles, Birds and Mammals)

1.6. Oviparous animals

Oviparous animals lay eggs laden with yolk. These eggs are laid outside after the process of internal fertilization (e.g. Reptiles and insects). The embryonic development takes place outside the body of the mother. Land dwelling animals lay eggs with shell (cledoic eggs). The shell gives protection and prevents desiccation. Aquatic animals lay eggs without a shell(noncledoic eggs) MORE TO KNOW Ovoviviparous animals In these animals the embryos develop inside the eggs that are retained within the mothers body until they are ready to hatch. The young ones are nourished by the egg yolk and there is no placental connection. eg. Vipers

1. Incomplete metamorphosis
Among animals where the young ones resemble the adult, growth in size takes place. In arthropods the shell covering the body is shed periodically, to match the growth of the animal. Life cycle of Grasshopper: The newly hatched young ones resembles the adult except in size, wings and reproductive organs. The young ones which hatch out of the egg (nymphs) undergo several intermediary stages through successive moultings to become an adult. Egg Nymph Adult e.g Grasshopper, Mayfly

CELLS 2.1. PROKARYOTIC AND EUKARYOTIC CELLS

Cells are the smallest functional unit in a living organism. Based on the complexity of organization, especially nuclear organization, the cells are classified into two types. 1) Prokaryotic cells. 2) Eukaryotic cells.
Cell wall Ribosomes Flagella DNA Cell membrane

1. Prokaryotic cells
Cells which lack a well organized nucleus are called prokaryotic cells. eg. Bacteria and blue green algae (Cyano Bacteria). Their DNA (Deoxyribo nucleic Acid) is not enclosed by a nuclear membrane. They also lack membrane bound organelles. The organisms which possess prokaryotic cells are called Prokaryotic organisms or Prokaryotes. They are considered to be primitive organisms.

membrane. They possess membrane bound organelles like Endoplasmic reticulum, golgi body, mitochondria, plastids and vacuoles. The organisms which possess eukaryotic cells are called Eukaryotic organisms or Eukaryotes.

Differences between Prokaryotic cell and Eukaryotic cell

Prokaryotic Cell It is generally smaller (1-10 microns) in size It lacks a well organized nucleus as its nuclear material is not surrounded by a nuclear membrane. It has a single chromosome Nucleolus is absent It lacks membrane bound cell organelles. Cell division occurs by fission or budding. Mitotic and meiotic divisions are absent Ribosomes are smaller 25 Eukaryotic Cell It is comparatively larger (5-100 microns) in size. It contains a well organized nucleus as its nuclear material is surrounded by a nuclear membrane. It has more than one chromosome. Nucleolus is present It possesses membrane bound cell organelles. Cell division takes place by mitosis and meiosis. Ribosomes are larger

2.3. CELL MEMBRANE AND CELL WALL

Cell Membrane (Plasma membrane or Plasmalemma)
The contents of the cell are enclosed by a thin, delicate living membrane called cell membrane. It is the outer boundary of the cell. Cell membrane is flexible and is made up of a continuous bilayer of lipid molecules and protein molecules. All cell organelles are also bound by a similar membrane. The cell wall consists of three layers namely, middle lamella, primary wall and secondary wall. The middle lamella is a thin amorphous cement like layer between two adjacent cells. Primary wall is the first formed wall of the cell and is produced inner to the middle lamella. The secondary wall is a thick layer found inner to the primary wall.

Functions
1.   Cell wall gives a definite shape to the plant cells. 2.   It gives rigidity and provides mechanical strength to the cell. It protects the protoplasm against 3.  injury. It also plays an important role in the 4.  transfer of materials between cells.

Functions
ff Plasma membrane selectively regulates the entry and exit of the substances into and out of the cell. Therefore, it is called a selectively permeable membrane or semipermeable membrane. ff It provides an outer boundary to the cell and protects the cell from injury. ff It allows the flow of materials and information between different organelles of the same cell, as well as between the adjacent cells. ff It provides some organic connections between the adjacent cells.

2.3.1. CYTOPLASM
Cytoplasm is the jellylike, translucent, homogeneous substance that fills up a cell. It consists of vital molecules such as carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, amino acids, minerals and water. The cytoplasm moves around slowly carrying the organelles around in a process called cytoplasmic streaming. It helps to keep the cell organelles dynamic and in motion. The portion of cytoplasm immediately below the cell membrane is gel-like and is called ectoplasm. The

CELL WALL
Cell wall is present only in plant cells. It is a rigid protective covering outside the plasma membrane. Presence of cell wall in plant cells distinguishes them from animal cells. Most of the plant cell walls are made up of cellulose.

a)  Rough endoplasmic reticulum :

They are found in cells which synthesize proteins. This type of endoplasmic reticulum possesses rough walls because the ribosomes are attached to it. They are found in cells which synthesize lipid. The walls are smooth as ribosomes are not attached to its membrane.

2.3.2. CELL ORGANELLES

A cell performs a variety of functions. To understand the functioning of the cell, it is necessary to know briefly about the structure of cell organelles.

Functions
1.  Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) provides large surface area for the metabolic activities of the cell. Rough endoplasmic reticulum plays an 2.  important role in protein synthesis. 3.  Smooth endoplasmic reticulum is involved in the synthesis of steroids, hormones and lipids.

Endoplasmic Reticulum
Endoplasmic reticulum is a complex and interconnected system of membrane bound channels and tubules. It is spread throughout the cytoplasm and is continuous with the plasma membrane and nuclear membrane. There are two types of Endoplasmic Reticulum. a. R  ough Endoplasmic Reticulum. (RER) b.  Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum. (SER)

Golgi Complex or Golgi apparatus The Golgi apparatus was first described by Camillo Golgi. Golgi complex consist of saucer-like cisternae, compartments called network of interconnecting tubules, vesicles and vacuoles at the peripheral regions. In plant cells, Golgi apparatus is referred to as dictyosomes.

Cisterna

Ribosomes
Ribosomes are small granular structures made up of ribonucleic acids (RNA) and proteins. They occur free in the cytoplasm as well as attached to the outer surface of the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Each ribosome consists of two subunits a small subunit and a large subunit. At the time of protein synthesis many ribosomes get attached to messenger RNA and form a structure called polyribosome or polysome.

1.  Golgi apparatus is involved in the formation of lysosomes. It is also responsible for the synthesis 2.  of cell wall and cell membrane.

Lysosomes
Lysosomes are small membrane bound vesicles which contain powerful digestive enzymes. These serve as intracellular digestive system, hence they are called digestive bags. They are produced by the joint activity of Endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus. If the membrane of Lysosome happens to get ruptured, the enzymes of Lysosome would digest the entire cellular structure causing death of the cell. So Lysosomes are called suicide bags.

Functions
1.  Lysosomes are involved in the intracellular digestion of food particles ingested by the cell through endocytosis. 2.  The lysosomes of WBCs (White blood cells) destroy pathogens and other foreign particles and thus take part in natural defence of the body. 30

Functions
Ribosomes play an important role in protein synthesis. So they are called, protein factories of the cell.

CELLS
Vacuoles
Vacuoles are fluid filled sacs bound by a single membrane called tonoplast. They are found, more in plant cells than in animal cells. Mature plant cells are found to have one large vacuole that almost fills up the entire cell. They may play the part of a contractile vacuole where excess water and waste is excreted from a cell. They also function as food vacuoles where they engulf material. For example, in Amoeba, the food vacuole engulfs food items and digests it using digestive juices. Vacuoles of plants are filled with cell sap containing minerals, sugars, amino acids and dissolved waste products. also contains the DNA and ribosomes. This makes it a unique organelle

Cristae

Functions
1.  Vacuoles store and concentrate mineral salts as well as nutrients. 2.  They maintain proper osmotic pressure in the cell for its turgidity.

Plastids
Plastids are disc or oval shaped organelles which occur in plant cells only. Plastids are of three types. They are Leucoplasts, Chromoplasts and Chloroplasts. 1. Leucoplasts: These are colourless plastids which store food in the form of starch, lipids and proteins 2.  Chromoplasts: These are yellow or reddish in colour due to the presence of pigments other than chlorophyll. Chromoplasts provide colour to many flowers and fruits. 3.  Chloroplasts: These are green coloured plastids which possess the photosynthetic pigment chlorophyll which is present in leaves.

Mitochondria
Mitochondria are globular or cylindrical organelles. Each mitochondrion is bound by two membranes an outer continuous membrane and an inner membrane thrown into folds called cristae. These cristae divide the inner chamber incompletely. The inner chamber is filled with homogenous dense material called the matrix. The cristae have pin headed bodies called F1 particles or Oxysomes which play an important role in respiration. The matrix of mitochondria contains enzymes necessary for the oxidation of food during respiration and release of energy in the form of ATP(Adenosine Triphosphate) molecules. Therefore mitochondria are called power houses of the cell. The mitochondria contain proteins and lipids. The mitochondrial matrix

Structure of chloroplast
Each chloroplast consists of a double membraned envelope and a matrix. The inner membrane is arranged along the length of the plastids as lamellae. At certain regions, the lamellae are thickened and appear like pile of coins. 31

CHAPTER - 2
The nucleoplasm has two types of nuclear structures i) the nucleolus and, ii) chromatin. The nucleolus is a spherical body rich in protein and RNA. It is the site of ribosome formation. There may be one or more nucleoli in the nucleoplasm.

The chromatin is a network of fine threads composed of genetic material Inner Membrane DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) and Stroma Thylakoids proteins. During cell division chromatin is condensed into thick cord like Chloroplast structures called Chromosomes. The chromosomes contain genes and each These are called the grana. Each granum gene is responsible for one hereditary consists of disc shaped membranous character of the organism. Genes sacs called thylakoids. Inside these contain information for inheritance of grana, the chlorophyll is located. The traits or characters from parents to the non-thylakoid portion of the matrix is offsprings of the next generation. called stroma. It contains a number of enzymes involved in photosynthesis.

Centrosome
Centrosome is present in animal cells and in certain lower plants. It is absent in prokaryotic cells and in higher plant cells. It is located in the cytoplasm, just outside the nucleus. It contains a pair of small, hollow granules called centrioles.

Functions
Centrioles play an important role in the formation of spindle fibres during cell division.

2.4. NUCLEUS
A nucleus is commonly seen as a spherical structure surrounded by a double membrane called the nuclear envelope. Nuclear envelope encloses a ground substance called nucleoplasm or karyolymph. The nuclear envelope has a large number of holes or pores called nuclear pores. They allow the movement of molecules across the nuclear envelope in and out of the nucleus.

Functions:

and higher organisms. DNA is made up of millions of nucleotides. Each nucleotide is made up of a pentose sugar, a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base. The nitrogenous bases are of two kinds- Purines and Pyrimidines. Adenine and Guanine are the purines and Thymine and Cytosine are the pyrimidines. The helical(spiral) structure of DNA was proposed by Watson and Crick. DNA is a double stranded structure in which the two strands are coiled around each other forming a double helix. The backbone of the helix is formed of sugar and phosphate molecules. The nitrogenous bases are attached to sugar molecules. The two poly-nucleotide strands are held together by hydrogen bonds between specific pairs of purines and pyrimidines. ActIVItY 2.6 ff

DIVISION

ANd

One of the most important characteristics of a living being is its ability to reproduce. The process of reproduction involves an increase in the number of cells by cell division. New cells can arise from pre-existing cells only through the process of cell division. Cell multiplication is needed for growth, development and repair of the body. Cells divide by three different methods. They are Amitosis, Mitosis and Meiosis. In each case, division of nucleus occurs before the division of cytoplasm.

Amitosis (Direct division)

Guanine

Cytosine

DNA Backbone

DNA structure

Amitosis is a simple method of cell division. It is also called direct cell division. The nucleus elongates and develops a constriction around its middle. The constriction gradually deepens and finally divides the nucleus into two daughter nucleus. This is followed by the constriction of the cytoplasm to form two daughter cells. This type of cell division is common in prokaryotes. (e.g. Bacteria, Amoeba) 34

CELLS
Mitosis (or) Indirect cell division:
Mitosis takes place in somatic cells (body cells other than sperm and ovum). It is a division that produces two identical daughter cells, each containing the same number of chromosomes as in the parent cell. It is a continuous process and takes place in four phases. These are Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase and Telophase.

Interphase
Before a cell undergoes mitotic division, it prepares itself for the division. This phase is called interphase. The chromatin material duplicates due to duplication of nucleic acids. This results in the formation of two chromatids.

Prophase
ff C  hromatin network begins to coil and appears as long thread-like structures called chromosomes. ff Each  chromosome appears as two chromatids that lie side by side and are joined at a point called centromere. ff Spindle  fibres appear from the poles and develop towards the centre.

ff C  hromatids become shorter and thicker. ff T  he chromatids move to the centre of the cell along with their centromeres. ff S  pindle fibres get attached to the centromere.

SCIENCE

BIOLOGY
Telophase
ff T  he daughter chromosomes reach the poles. ff  The nucleolus and nuclear membrane reappear and thus two daughter nuclei are formed at the two poles of the cell. ff  The spindle fibres disappear. ff  These stages bring about the division of the nucleus and this is called karyokinesis. This is followed by the division of the cytoplasm.

CHAPTER - 2
In plant cells, the cytoplasmic division occurs by the formation of a cell plate at the centre of the cell between the two daughter nuclei. Thus at the end of mitosis, two identical daughter cells are formed.

Meiosis
Meiosis is a type of cell division which takes place in the reproductive cells of organisms. Unlike mitosis, meiosis results in four daughter cells each having half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell. These daughter cells become part of specialized reproductive cells called gametes (a sperm or an ovum). They are involved in sexual reproduction.

Cytokinesis
The division of cytoplasm is called cytokinesis.

Matter
The entire world around us that we can see, touch and feel is made up of matter. The sweet smelling fresh air that we breathe, the beautiful flowers and trees around us, the tasty fruits that we eat, the pets that we love, the roof and walls that make up our homes, the ground that we walk on, why even our own bodies are all made up of matter. Matter occupies space. In other words matter has volume. Some are large and some are small. The quantity of matter contained in any object is referred to as mass. Hence each matter is characterized by mass and volume. All matter exists in one of the three states - solid, liquid or gas. These are often referred to as the three physical states of matter. Classification of matter: 1.  According to physical state as solid, liquid and gas. 2.  According to its composition as element, compound and mixture.

CHAPTER - 3
Physical states of matter
Solid: Solids have a definite shape and a definite volume. They take a lot of energy to change the shape. They are rigid and not compressed appreciably even at high pressures. They usually have high densities and expand only very slightly when heated. In a solid, the molecules are held tightly together in definite arrangements. Liquid: Liquids have no definite shape and they take the shape of the container. They have a definite volume. They are not appreciably compressed by moderate pressures. They expand more than solids on heating and change into the gaseous state. They have lower densities than solids. Gas: Gases have no definite shape. They take the shape of the containing vessel. Gases have no definite volume. They have the property to fill the entire space available to them. They are easily compressed by even small pressures and also expand more than liquids on heating. They have low densities.

Purity of Matter
Substances rarely exist in a pure form in nature. Often they are mixed with many other substances or materials. Their physical properties and chemical properties are either altered or are not clearly visible because of the presence of other substances. A pure substance is a distinct type of matter that has the same properties (physical and chemical) throughout the sample. elements in compounds are chemically bonded to each other. The physical and chemical properties of such compounds do not resemble the properties of any of the constituent elements. For example when hydrogen gas and oxygen gas are stored together in a container in the ratio 2:1, under certain conditions they would explosively combine to form water which is a liquid and has physical and chemical properties that are totally different from those of either hydrogen or oxygen. Water is a chemical compound. A molecule can be broken down chemically into atoms of the constituent elements. (figure (c)).

Elements, Compounds and Mixtures

According to its composition matter can be classified as element, compound and mixture.

Elements
An element is a type of substance that cannot be broken down chemically. When it is pure, the smallest unit of an element that displays all the properties of that element is an atom. Atoms of the same element may be visualized as similar looking tiny little objects (figure (a) below) each particle having the same physical and chemical properties as well. Many elements especially gases do not exist as single atoms. They exist in clusters (usually identical clusters of two or three atoms) as shown in figure (b) below. Examples of such elements are hydrogen, oxygen etc.

(c) Compound

3.1. Mixtures
When two or more substances are mixed together and the substances retain their individual original identities, the combination is called a mixture. For example if you mix sand and water, sand retains its own properties and water retains its own properties. In a mixture, two or more substances are brought together and no chemical reaction takes MORE TO KNOW The purity of a substance is often determined by measuring its physical properties. For example, a colourless, odourless, tasteless liquid which at atmospheric pressure, boils at 100o C, freezes at 0o C and has a density of 1.0 g cm-3 is water. A pure substance can exist as element or compound. 41

For example if hydrogen and oxygen, in any ratio are mixed together in a container gently at low temperatures in the absence of a spark, no chemical reaction would take place and the mixture would display the physical and chemical properties of hydrogen and oxygen.

3.2.  Characteristics of mixtures

Mixtures may consist of substances in the same or different physical states. For example, bronze is an alloy consisting of the two solid metals, copper and tin; both are in the solid state. Most common solutions are mixtures of a solid in a liquid. For example salt dissolved in water. Mixtures are not pure substances since they are neither single type of distinct matter nor do they display single set of physical and chemical properties throughout the whole sample. As shown in figure (d) below, we can imagine mixtures to be different types of atoms or molecules held together but essentially retaining their individual physical and chemical properties. In mixtures, elements are physically mixed in any ratio and no new compound is formed. The substances making up a mixture are called constituents or components.

There are two types of mixtures. They are, 1. Homogeneous mixture 2. Heterogeneous mixture Homogeneous mixtures 3.3.1.  and their types

There are three types of homogeneous mixtures. Solid homogeneous mixture - Alloys Liquid homogeneous mixture -  Alcohol in water Gaseous homogeneous mixture - Air

Homogeneous Mixtures

Homogeneous mixtures consist of a uniform distribution of the substances throughout the mixture. Samples taken from any part of the mixture would have the same ratio of the ingredient substances and same physical and chemical properties although the properties of different samples may be different. Air is a homogeneous mixture of nitrogen,oxygen, argon and other traces of gases. All the ingredients of homogeneous mixtures necessarily have to be in the same state.

3.4. SeparatioN of different components of a mixture
Mixtures can be separated by simple physical procedures. To be able to separate the ingredients of a mixture we would need to know the physical properties of the individual ingredients. Using the properties that are distinct and different, we can separate them. For example if both the ingredients of a mixture are soluble in water then we cannot separate the ingredients. However if we know that the melting point of two ingredients is different then we can use that knowledge to separate the ingredients. A good knowledge of physical properties is therefore very important.

CHAPTER - 3
Separation of mixtures by 3.4.1.  sublimation Sublimation is defined as a process, in which a substance in solid state is directly converted into vapour state. At high temperature, the molecules of volatile solid move far away from each other making the solid substance into vapour.

4.1.  Discovery of the nucleus

Need to study the structure of the atom
John Dalton proposed the idea of the atom as the smallest possible particle of any substance. He never worked with small particles of solids but actually he worked with gases, how they mix with each other, how they form compounds and how they dissolve in water etc. While working with all this he discovered that whenever elements combine to form more than one compound, the ratio of the masses of elements in the compounds are small whole number ratios of each other, which led him to the idea that the smallest particle of one substance was combining with the smallest part of another substance in a fixed quantities. The development of modern atomic theories is an excellent example of how science progresses. Many scientists contribute their knowledge for the development. New experiments lead to either changes in the old theories or even to new theories.Theories are useful in providing the basis for further work. Although, J.J.Thomsons atomic theory explained electrical neutrality of atoms, it could not reveal the presence of nucleus in an atom, which was later proposed by Ernest Rutherford in 1909.

Rutherford observed what happens to alpha particles projected at a thin metal foil.

A stream of alpha particles was made to pass through a thin gold foil of about 4x10-5 cm thickness. Most of the alpha particles did go through the foil in a straight line. Some alpha particles were deflected through an average angle of 90o .Rarely the path of 1 in 20,000 alpha particles scored a direct hit on the nucleus and returned by an angle of 180o.

Neils Bohr modified Rutherfords atom model and put forth the following postulates. ff In atoms, the electrons revolve around the nucleus in stationary circular paths. These paths are called orbits or shells or energy levels. ff As long as electrons revolve in the same orbit, it does not lose or gain energy. ff The circular orbits are numbered as 1, 2, 3, 4 or designated as K, L, M, N shells. These numbers are referred to as principal quantum numbers (n). ffSmaller the size of orbit, smaller is the energy of the orbit. ff As we move away from the nucleus, energy of the orbit is constantly increasing. ff Maximum number of electrons that can be accommodated in an energy level (n) is given by 2n2 . ff When an electron absorbs energy, it jumps from lower energy level to higher energy level. ff When an electron returns from higher energy level to lower energy level, it gives off energy.

4.6.1.  Composition of nucleus
Electrons have negligible mass. Hence the mass of an atom mainly depends on the mass of the nucleus. Nucleus of an atom consists of two components. They are protons and neutrons. Protons are positively charged. Protons repel each other because of their like-charges. Hence, more than one proton cannot be packed in a small volume to form a stable nucleus unless neutrons are present. Neutrons reduce the repulsive force between positively charged protons and contribute to the force that holds the particles in the nucleus together.

In lighter atoms, one neutron per proton is enough. Heavier atoms with more protons in the nucleus need more neutrons in the nucleus, for the nucleus to be stable. Thus the stability of the nucleus is determined by the Neutron-Proton ratio.

It must be understood that the second orbit begins to fill with electrons only after the first orbit is filled. The third orbit begins to fill only after the second orbit is filled. But the fourth orbit commences even before the third orbit is completely filled. The reason for this lies in the concept of quantum numbers. Thus the term electronic configuration or electronic structure refers to the way, the electrons are arranged around the nucleus. Most of the properties of elements and their compounds depend on their electronic configurations. To write electronic configuration, the principal quantum number of the shells must be known. This number describes the number of orbits present in the atom. Let us consider sodium atom. Atomic number of sodium = Total number of electrons in sodium = 11 Orbit wise distribution of electrons Orbit Number of electrons 1. (K-Shell) 2n2 =2x12=2 electrons 2.

Lithium (Atomic number:3) has the electronic distribution, (n=1) K Shell 2 (electron) (n=2) L Shell 1 (remaining electron) Outer most shell is L. The valence electron = 1 The valency of Lithium = 1

4.9.1.  Valence Electrons and valency

The number of electrons in the outer energy level (orbit) of an atom are the ones that can take part in chemical bonding. These electrons are referred to as the valence electrons. The outermost shell or orbit of an atom is known as valence shell or valence orbit. The electrons present in the outer shell are called valence electrons. The number representing the valence electrons is used to calculate the valency of the element. This valency is regarded as the combining capacity of elements. ActiVitY 4.9

When the number of electrons in the outermost shell is close to its full capacity, (such as 8 for L shell) valency is then determined by subtracting the valence electron number from the full capacity of 8. Valency = 8-valence electrons For example fluorine(atomic number: 9) has the electron distribution, n 1 2 shell K L electrons 2 7

Outer shell (L) has 7 electrons which is close to the full capacity of 8. Hence valency = (8 -7) = 1 i Do
