VII. Answer in detail:

Question 1.
List out the functions of the digestive system.

Answer:

  • The process of conversion of complex food molecules into simpler molecules is called digestion.
  • Saliva moistens food.

    3. Blood Vessels

1. Heart:

  • The heart is a hollow, muscular organ conical in shape.
  • It is covered by a double walled pericardium membrane, filled with pericardial fluid.
  • This fluid protects the heart from shock.
  • Heart is placed inside the rib cage between the two lungs.
  • Heart has 4 chambers, the two upper chambers called auricles.
  • The two lower thicker chambers called ventricles.
  • The upper and lower chambers of the heart are separated by muscular wall known as auriculo-ventricular septum.
  • The right side of the heart receives de-oxygenated blood from various parts of body and pumped to the lungs for oxygenation.
  • The left side of the heart receives oxygenated blood from the lungs and pumps to different parts of the body.

1. Fore Brain – Cerebrum
The fore brain consists of cerebrum, thalamus and hypothalamus.

  • It is the largest part of the brain.
  • It is the centre of human memory.
  • It is responsible for intelligence, imagination and reasoning.

2. Mid Brain – Cerebellum

  • It lies behind the cerebrum.
  • It co-ordinates the movements of the muscules of body.
  • It helps to maintain the balance of the body.

3. Hind Brain – Medulla Oblongata

  • The hind brain comprises of pons and medulla oblongata.
  • It is also called the brain stem.
  • It controls breathing, heartbeat, and other involuntary muscles, so it is called “Vital Knot”.
  • It connects the brain to the spinal cord.

VIII. Questions based on higher order thinking (HOT):

Question 1. Why It is important to wear helmet while riding a bike?
Answer:
Wearing helmet helps to protect your life and protect your head from danger. The head and brain is the most vulnerable to injury in a motorcycle accident. Drivers and passengers wearing helmets increase their chances of survival over non-helmet wearers. Riders who do not wear helmets are at risk of suffering a traumatic brain injury, if they are in accident. Brain trauma often results in spinal cord injuries and disability that requires extended care and physical therapy. The damaged brain may deteriorate after hospitalization and die days to weeks after the injury due to secondary injury.

Question 2.
Eating fast-food and junk food affects our health. Justify.
Answer:

  • Fast food is usually higher in fat, calories cholesterol, and sodium in comparison to homemade meals.
  • Eating too much fast food can increase the risk for health problems such as high blood pressure, heart disease, and obesity.
  • Eating a poor quality diet high in junk food is linked to a higher risk of obesity, depression, digestive issues, heart diseases and stroke, type 2 diabetes, cancer, and early death.
