  • Carbon that is used in photosynthesis come from atmosphere in the form of CO2.

  • Glycolysis is the common step in aerobic and anaerobic pathway. Glycolysis takes place in cytoplasm of the cell.

4. Name the phenomenon by which carbohydrates are oxidized to release ethyl alcohol.

  • The phenomenon by which carbohydrates are oxidized to release ethyl alcohol is fermentation.

VI. Short Answer Questions

1. Give an account on vascular bundle of dicot stem.

  • Vascular bundles of dicot stem are conjoint collateral, endarch and open.
  • They are arranged in the form of a ring around the pith.

2. Write a short note on mesophyll.

  • In a leaf, the tissue present between the upper and lower epidermis is called mesophyll.
  • It is differentiated into palisade parenchyma and Spongy parenchyma.

3. Draw and label the structure of oxysomes.

4. Name the three basic tissue system in flowering plants.

  • Dermal (or) Epidermal tissue system
  • Ground tissue system
  • Vascular tissue system

5. What is photosynthesis and where in a cell does it occur?

  • Photosynthesis is a process by which autotrophic organisms utilize the energy from sunlight to synthesize their own food.
  • Here, CO2 combines with water in the presence of sunlight & chlorophyll to form carbohydrates.
  • It occurs in the chloroplast.

6. What is Respiratory quotient?

  • Respiratory Quotient (R.Q.) is the ratio of volume of carbon dioxide liberated and the volume of oxygen consumed during respiration.
  • R.Q. = volume of CO2 liberated / volume of O2 consumed

7. Why should the light dependent reaction occur before the light independent reaction?

  • During light independent reactions, CO2 is reduced into carbohydrates with the help of ATP and NADPH2 which is generated during light dependent reaction.
  • So, light dependent reaction should occur before the light independent reaction.
  1. Write the reaction for photosynthesis.
6CO2 + 6H2O 

 

Light

——————–>

Chlorophyll

 C6H12O6 + 6O2 ↑

Glucose     Oxygen

VII. Long Answer Questions

1. Differentiate the following.

  1. a) Monocot root and Dicot root
Tissues Dicot Root (Bean) Monocot Root (Maize)
Number of xylem Tetrarch Polyarch

 
Cambium Present (during secondary growth only) Absent

 
Secondary growth Present Absent

 
Pith Absent Present

 
Conjunctive tissue Parenchyma Sclerenchyma

 
  1. b) Aerobic and Anaerobic respiration:
Aerobic respiration Anaerobic respiration
1) Aerobic respiration takes place in the presence of oxygen. 1) Anaerobic respiration takes place in the absence of oxygen.
2) It occurs in most plants and animals 2) It occurs in some bacteria.
3) Carbohydrate is completely oxidized into carbon dioxide, water and energy 3) Glucose is converted into ethanol (in plants) or lactate (in some bacteria)
4) CH12O6 + 6O2→ 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP 4) C6H12O6→ 2 CO2 + 2 C2H5OH + Energy (ATP)

2. Describe and name three stages of cellular respiration that aerobic organisms use to obtain energy from glucose.

Glycolysis:

  • It is the breakdown of one molecule of glucose into two molecules of pyruvic acid.
  • It takes place in cytoplasm of the cell.
  • It is the first step of both aerobic and anaerobic respiration.

Krebs cycle (or) Tricarboxylic Acid cycle (TCA):

  • It occurs in mitochondria matrix.
  • At the end of glycolysis, two molecules of pyruvic acid enter into mitochondria.
  • The oxidation of pyruvic acid into CO2 and water takes place through this cycle.

Electron Transport chain (ETC):

  • This is accomplished through a system of electron carrier complex located on the inner membrane of the mitochondria.
  • NADH2 and FADH2 molecules formed during glycolysis and Krebs cycle are oxidised to NAD+ and FAD+ to release the energy via electrons.
  • The electrons release energy, which is trapped by ADP to synthesize ATP.
  • This is called oxidative phosphorylation. Here O2 gets reduced to water

3. How does the light dependent reaction differ from the light independent reaction? What are the end products and reactants in each? Where does each reaction occur within the chloroplast?

Light dependent Reaction Light independent Reaction
This reaction takes place in the presence of light energy It takes place in the absence of light.
Here, photosynthetic pigments absorb light energy and convert it into ATP & NADPH2 Here, CO2 is reduced into carbohydrates with

the help of light-generated ATP & NADPH2
Reactants : sunlight, water, NADP+, ADP Reactants : ATP, NADPH2, O2
End products: ATP, NADPH2, O2 End products: Carbohydrate, ADP, NADP+

 

Place of Occurrence in the chloroplast

It occurs in the thylakoid membrane (grana) of the chloroplast. It occurs in the stroma of the chloroplast.

VIII. Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS)

1. The reactions of photosynthesis make up a biochemical pathway.

A) What are the reactants and end products of light and dark reaction of photosynthesis?

Light Reaction Dark Reaction
Reactants

 

 sunlight, H2O, NADP+, ADP O2, ATP and NADPH2
Products ATP, NADPH2 and O2 Carbohydrate, ADP and NADP+
  1. B) Explain how the biochemical pathway of photosynthesis recycles many of its own reactions and identify the recycled reactants.

Two important steps take place during photosynthesis are Light reactions and Dark reactions (or) Calvin cycle.

  • ATP and NADPH2 are formed by light reactions using sunlight. It is used by Calvin cycle to produce glucose.
  • Calvin cycle oxidizes NADPH2 and ADP to NADP+ and ATP. These are again used by light reaction and reduced to NADPH2 and ATP with the help of a water molecule.
  • In this way, photosynthesis recycles its own reaction in a series.

2. Where do the light dependent reaction and the Calvin cycle occur in the chloroplast?

  • Light dependent reaction takes place in thylakoid membranes (grana) of chloroplast.
  • Calvin cycle or Light independent reaction takes place in stroma of chloroplast.
