\nAnswer:
\nThe process by which green plants make their own food from carbon dioxide and water by using light energy in the presence of chlorophyll is called Photosynthesis.
\n\"AP<\/p>\n

Question 3.
\nDescribe different types of teeth and their functions.
\nAnswer:
\nThere are four different types of teeth in our human beings.
\n\"AP
\n1. Incisors :
\nThe four front teeth in both the upper and lower jaws are called incisors. Thus there are eight incisors in the oral cavity. They have sharp incisal edge. Their primary function is to cut food.<\/p>\n

2. Canines :
\nThey are behind and adjacent to the lateral incisors on both the jaws. There are four canines in the oral cavity. They have single sharpcusp. Their main function is to tear food.<\/p>\n

3. Premolars :
\nThese teeth are located behind and adjacent to the canines. There are two premolars on the upper jaw and also two premolars on the lower jaw on either side of the mouth. Thus there are eight premolars in the oral cavity.These teeth can have 3-4 cusps. They are designed to crush food.<\/p>\n

4. Molars :
\nThe most posterior teeth in the mouth are the molars. There are 12 molars in the permanent dentition.They have broader and flatter surfaces with 4-5 cusps. They are designed to grind food.<\/p>\n

Question 4.
\nWhat happens if leaves of a green plant are coated with green paint?
\nAnswer:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. If the leaves of a green plant are coated with green paint, then stomata present on the surface of the leaf will get blocked.<\/li>\n
  2. As a result exchange of gases will be affected.<\/li>\n
  3. So, plant may not get sufficient amount of carbon dioxide for photosynthesis and oxygen for respiration.<\/li>\n
  4. oreover, paint over the leaf prevents the reaching of sunlight to the leaf.<\/li>\n
  5. As a result plant will not be able to perform photosynthesis and respiration, gradually it leads to its death.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Question 5.
    \nWhat questions will you ask a doctor to know about gastritis?

      Question 6.
      \nHow can you prove that the leaves other than green also carry out photo synthesis? (Activity – 2)
      \nAnswer:
      \nAim: To know whether leaves other than green perform photosynthesis or not.<\/p>\n

      What you need:
      \nRed or brown coloured leaves, dropper; test tube, iodine solution, water.<\/p>\n

      What to do:
      \nTake few Red or brown coloured leaves, add few drops of water and mash them to make a paste, collect the extract by squeezing the paste (pulp). Take 5-6 drops of this extract into a test tube. Also add two drops of iodine solution. Note your observations.<\/p>\n

      What do you see:
      \nThe colour of the leaf extract turns blue black.<\/p>\n

      What do you learn:
      \nThis shows the presence of starch in the leaves, confirming that red or brown coloured leaves also perform photosynthesis.<\/p>\n

      These non-green leaves also have chlorophyll. The large amount of red, brown and other pigments mask the green colour. So photosynthesis takes place in these leaves also.<\/p>\n

      Question 7.
      \nDraw a neat labelled diagram of human digestive system.
      \nAnswer:
      \n\"AP<\/p>\n

      Question 9.
      \nHow will you appreciate the role of saprophytes in cleaning of the earth surface?
      \nAnswer:<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Saprophytes grow on dead and decaying matter.<\/li>\n
      2. They secrete digestive juices on it, convert it into a solution and then absorb the nutrients from it.<\/li>\n
      3. During this process they decompose them and mix them with the soil.<\/li>\n
      4. In this Way they help in cleaning the earth surface by removing the dead and decaying matter.<\/li>\n
      5. This process help in recycling the nutrients too.<\/li>\n
      6. Thus they are doing a great service to the entire living world.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                                            \n
                                          1. Leaves are green in colour.<\/li>\n
                                          2. When iodine solution is put on a leaf, it should turn blue if starch is present.<\/li>\n
                                          3. However, the green colour of the leaf disguises the blue colour.<\/li>\n
                                          4. More over cuticle present on the leaf hardly allows the iodine to reach he starch present in side the leaf.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                                            \nWhich habit should be practised for the health of teeth? Why?
                                            \nAnswer:<\/p>\n

                                              \n
                                            1. Brush teeth twice a day with fluoride tooth paste.<\/li>\n
                                            2. Use dental floss to clean between your teeth.<\/li>\n
                                            3. Change your tooth brush every 3 months.<\/li>\n
                                            4. Cut down on how often you have sugary foods like chocolates, sweets and cool drinks. Visit dentist regularly.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                                              The above habits should practise for healthy teeth. Because, if we do not clean our teeth and mouth after eating, many harmful bacteria begin to live and grow in mouth. These bacteria breakdown the sugars present from left over food and release acids. These acids gradually damage teeth and causes severe toothache.<\/p>\n

                                              Question 3.
                                              \nHow do you prove that the sunlight is essential for photosynthesis?
                                              \nAnswer:
                                              \nAim: To know the importance of light in photosynthesis.<\/p>\n

                                              What you need :
                                              \nTwo potted plants, dropper, test tube, iodine solution, water.<\/p>\n

                                              What to do:
                                              \nTake two potted plants of the same kind. Keep one in the dark (or in a black box) for 72 hours and the other in the sunlight. Perform iodine test with the Leaf extracts of both the plants as you did in activity-2. Note your observations.<\/p>\n

                                              What do you see :
                                              \nThe colour of the leaf extract of first plant does not change. The colour of the leaf extract of second plant turns blue black.<\/p>\n

                                              What do you learn :
                                              \nThis shows the presence of starch in the leaves of plant kept in the sunlight indicating the occurrence of photosynthesis. There is no starch in the leaves of the plant kept in the dark. This confirms that sunlight is essential for photosynthesis.<\/p>\n

                                              What you need :
                                              \nMarbles, dilute hydrochloric acid and test tube.<\/p>\n

                                              What to do:

                                              What do you see :
                                              \nAcid reacts with marble and dissolves it.<\/p>\n

                                              What do you learn :
                                              \nThe enamel, which is a calcium compound, reacts with acid and gets destroyed in the same way a marble reacts with hydrochloric acid.<\/p>\n

                                              When food remains stuck in teeth, bacteria feed on them. As a result, lactic acid is produced, which causes the destruction of enamel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
