Biology - Human Health and Diseases
Following are the diseases that can affect the circulatory system:
⑴ Hypertension:
It is the most common disease affecting the heart and blood vessels. A blood pressure of 120/80 mmHg is considered normal. But the increase in blood pressure beyond 140 mmHg (systolic) and 90 mmHg (diastolic) is called high blood pressure (hypertension). A diet full of oily food is known to increase cholesterol levels, causing thickening of the arteries which results in high blood pressure. Tobacco smoking increases the heart rate, contracts blood vessels and raises blood pressure. High blood pressure can harm the heart, brain, kidneys and eyes.
Q1. What are Transgenic crops?
Answer: Genetically modified crops that contain or express one or more useful foreign genes are called transgenic crops.
Q2. What are transgenic animals? Give an example.
Answer: Animals manipulated with the foreign gene and have the ability to express it are transgenic animals. e.g. Rosie, a transgenic cow produced milk containing human alpha-lactalbumin.
Q3. What is BT toxin?
Answer: Bt toxin is an intracellular crystalline protein. It exists as an inactive protoxin that once ingested by an insect, gets activated, binds to the surface of midgut epithelial cells. This causes cell swelling and lysis, leading to the death of an insect.

(a) Morphologically similar
(b) Genetically similar
(c) Both (a) and (b)
(d) None of these
Answer: (c) Both (a) and (b)
Clones are morphologically and genetically similar individuals.
Q2: Define Parthenogenesis.
Answer: Parthenogenesis is the development of an egg into an embryo without fertilisation. e.g. in rotifers, honeybees, turkey and some lizards.
Q1: Define immunity.
Answer: Immunity means resistance to infections and antigens. Immunity is the capacity of an organism to resist or defend itself from the development of a disease.
Q2: What is an antigen? Give some examples.
Answer: Any substance or molecule that induces the immune system to produce antibodies against it is called an antigen. Examples include pathogens, virus, pollens, chemicals etc.

2. Caper Bauhin expressed proposed binomial nomenclature for the first time
3. In binomial nomenclature, the first word is a generic name having first letter capital and second word is a specific epithet having first letter. e.g. Homo sapiens, Mangifera indica
4. After end of biological name, the name of author is written in abbreviated form who gave the name to that organism.
5. Both the words of a biological name when handwritten are separately underlined and when printed are typed in italics to indicate their Latin origin and also give respect to the name.
CBSE Class 11 Biology - The Living World
Q1: Do five kingdom classification include viruses, viroids and lichens?
Answer: Five kingdom system of classification do not includes Virus, Viroids and Lichens.
Q2: What is a virus? What is its structure?
Answer: Viruses are non-cellular organisms having inert crystalline structure outside the living. A virus is a small particle consisting of a nucleic acid core surrounded by a protein coat; in order to reproduce, a virus must infect a living cell.
