(a) How are the cancer cells different from normals cells?
(b) Pick out correct carcinogens out of the following :
Asbestos, infra red rays, arsenic, polythene, casein, caffein, tobacco smoke, Gamma rays.
(c) Write down three methods (write full forms wherever required) to detect cancer of internal organs.
14.
Why do some adolescent start taking drugs?How can this be avoided.
15.
If the person shows the production of interferons in his body, chances are that he suffering from
Measles
Tetanus
Anthrax
Malaria
16.
Active immunity developed is related to
Natural killer cells
Memory cells
Helper T cells
Suppressor T cells
17.
In malaria, the product released by mosquito into blood that causes chill and fever is called
Haematin
Schuffner's dots
Haemozoin
Haemotoxin
18.
HIV mainly infects
Cytotoxic T-lymphocytes
Helper lymphocytes
Cell-mediated T-lymphocytes
Killer lymphocytes
19.
L.S.D, morphine and bhang are respectively obtained from
Claviceps, Papaver and Cannabis
Claviceps, Cannabis and Rauwolfia
Cannabis, Claviceps and Fuscarium
Claviceps, Rauwolfia and Papaver
1.
( )
Dried fruiting body of ergot fungus.
2.
( )
Champagne, Whisky
3.
( )
Dependence on habituating agents
4.
( )
Antibodies are the glycoproteins,that keep circulating in the body fluids (humors),hence it is called humoral immunity.
5.
Cells infected with HIV.
1.Macrophages
2.Helper T-cells(T-lymphocytes).
Events
1.After entry,RNA genome of virus replicates to form viral DNA with help of reverse transcriptase.
2.Viral DNA gets incorporated into host cell's DNA and directs the infected cells to produce viruses.
3.The macrophages produce virus and act like a HIV factory.
6.
(i) Measles
(ii) Polio
(iii) Tetanus
(iv) Diphtheria
(v) Tuberculosis
(vi) Pertussis.
7.
(a) Contact inhibition is the property shown by normal cells,by the virtue of which contact with other cells inhibits their uncontrolled proliferation and growth.
(b) All normal cells have cellular oncogenes (c-onc) or proto-oncogenes;when activated under certain conditions,such genes could lead to oncogenic transformation of cells,i.e.they become cancerous.
8.
In the primary lymphoid organs,immature lymphocytes differentiate into antigen-sensitive lymphocytes.
e.g.Bone marrow,Thymus.
In the secondary lymphoid organs,the interaction occurs between lymphocytes and antigen and proliferation occurs.
e.g.Spleen,Tonsil.
9.
1. Active immunity is produced by injecting the microbes deliberately during immunisation.
2. Antibodies are produced by the B-cells of our body in response to the antigens;they neutralise the pathogenic agents during actual infection.
3. The vaccines also generate memory B-cells and T-cells,which recognise the same pathogen on subsequent exposure and destroy them by a massive production of antibodies.
10.
Many microbial pathogens enter the gut of human along with food. The preventive barriers to protect the body from such pathogens are as follows:
(i) The mucus coating of the epithelium lining of the gut helps in trapping microbes entering the body.
(ii) Saliva in the mouth and hydrochloric acid in gastric juice secreted by stomach prevent microbial growth.
11.
Factors to achieve good health:
(i) Awareness about diseases and their effects on different body functions.
(ii) Vaccination/immunisation against many infectious diseases.
(iii) Control of vectors.
(iv) Proper disposal of wastws/excreta.
(v) Periodic cleaning and disinfecting of water reservoirs,tanks,etc. to avoid water-borne diseases.
(vi) Consumption of clean food and drinking water.
(vii) Exercise and relaxation.
12.
(a) Amoebiasis is caused by Entamoeba histolytica.
(b) Symptoms:
(i) Constipation
(ii) Abdominal cramps and pain.
(iii) Stool with excess mucus and blood clots.
Transmission
Drinking water and food contaminated with the faeces of infected persons.
Houseflies act as mechanical carriers and transmit the parasite from faeces to food and water.
13.
(a)
| Cancer cells | Normal cells |
| 1. They do not undergo differentiation. | 1. They undergo differentiation |
| 2. Cancer cells undergo uncontrolled divisions | 2. Cell division are regulated |
| 3. These cells do not require extracellular growth factors. | 3. These cells require extracellular growth factors |
| 4. Cells do not remain adhered. | 4. Cells remain adhered to one another |
| 5. Cell death is inhibited. | 5. These cells have finite life span. |
| 6. These tend fo form tumour | 6. Tumours are not formed |
(b) The carcinogens are asbestos, gamma rays, tobacco smoke and arsenic.
(c) Detection and diagnosis of cancer depends upon histological features of malignant structure.
(i) Biopsy of bone marrow and abnormal count of WBCs is done in leukemia.
(ii) Pap test (cytological staining) is used for detecting cancer of cervix and other genital tract parts.
(iii) Radiography, CT scan (Computed Tomography), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI scan) are useful technique to detect cancer of internal organs.
14.
It is true that once a person gets entangled in the deadly whirlpool of alcohol or drugs, it is very difficult to get rid of this habit because, in the absence of a continuous supply of alcohol/drugs, the person starts showing certain symptoms called withdrawal signs which are listed below:
(1) Anxiety
(2) Shakiness
(3) Nausea
(4)Sweating.
