Topic II:
Nutrition: Metabolism and Digestion, Food, Vitamins, Enzymes, minerals and water.
Nutrition- Definition, its significance and importance.
Food—as source of energy. Types - Carbohydrates, Fats, and proteins - their sources and importance in nutrition, Micro and Macro elements in plants& animals &its importance (classification not required).
Vitamins - its importance. A, B - Complex, C,D, E, K-sources of these vitamins and their deficiency symptoms in man (Chemical nature not required).
Water-Importance in nutrition.
Plant nutrition-Autotrophs & heterotrophs (Definition & example), Essential micro & macro-elements in nutrition & their sources.
Animal nutrition- Phases of nutrition (Ingestion, Digestion*, Absorption, Assimilation and Egestion along with the names of the structures concerned with reference to man).
Enzymes-Definition, Characteristic features, Digestive enzymes with example and their role in digestion.
Diet - Definition. Metabolism - Anabolism and catabolism (definition only). B.M.R - definition only. Total calorie requirements of human being; concept of Balance diet.
Topic III:
Circulation
A. Plants Definition and medium of transport, Osmosis & diffusion - definition and its role in circulation. Ascent ot sap through xylem, absorption through root, (root pressure, adhesionr cohesion force & transpiration pull to explain ascent of sap). Transportation of food through phloem (detail process not required),
Transpiration: Definition, factors affecting transpiration and importance. Experiment to demonstrate the rate oi transpiration in plants.
B. Animals Definition and medium of transport circulating fluid, Blood: Components of blood, Plasma, Thrombocytes, R.B.C, W,B.C.(detail types not required), respiratory pigments - mention heamoglobin & haemocyanin. Lymph and its importance; Blood groups in elementary way (mention A, B, O, groups RH factor and importance). Functions of blood -(i)Transportation (food, vitamins, minerals, oxygen, carbon dioxide, hormones, metabolic waste). (ii) Coagulation. (iii)Immunity (iv) Protective function and (v) Regulation of temperature circulatory system, Components of circulatory system (heart, artery, vein, capillary -No description of individual system). Basic idea of open and closed circulation with example (Cockroach & Human), Blood circulation through human heart (with diagrammatic representation).
Topic IV:
Movement and locomotion Difference between movement and locomotion Purpose of locomotion. Mention locomotory organs in amoeba, earthworm, cockroach and fish. Mention the role of myotomes and fins in fish locomotion, Bipedal locomotion in Man - details of structure and mechanism not needed. Absence of locomotory organs in majority of plants. Types of movements in plants: (i)Tactic (ii)Tropic (phototropic, Geotropic and Hydrotropic) (iii) Nastic.
Topic V:
