  • 9: Parabronchii are present in: (a) Mammals (b) Reptiles (c) Birds (d) Fishes
  • 10. In earthworm exchange of gases mainly takes place through: (a) Ostia (b) Lungs (c) Skin (d) Gills 
  • 11. …have most efficient respiratory system. (a) Mammals (b) Birds (c) Amphibians (d) Fish
  • 12. The left systemic arch disappears in: (a) Fishes (b) Reptiles (c) Birds (d) Amphibians
  • 13. The number of air sacs in most birds are: (a) 08 (b) 09 (c) 07 (d) 06
  • 14. Respiratory organs in fish are: (a) Fins (b) Skin (c) Gills (d) Lungs 
  • 15. The amount of Carbon dioxide present in air is about: (a) 0.01 to 0.02 % (b) 0.04 to 4 % (c) 0.03 to 0.04 % (d) 0.05 to 0.07 %
  • 16. Which one is an insect? (a) Hag fish (b) Cuttle fish (c) Silver fish (d) Star fish
  • Q1: Haemoglobin is a complex molecule which contains 9512 atoms and ……….. amino acids.
  • Q2: There are about ……….. stomata per square centimeter of leaf surface of tobacco plant.
  • Q3: When the smaller bronchi attain the diameter of_............ mm or less they are called bronchioles 
  • define photo respiration. Ans: Respiratory activity which occurs in plants during daytime is called photorespiration. Photorespiraiton is a light dependent process during which oxygen is absorbed and carbon dioxide is released. This oxygen is derived from the early reaction of photosynthesis. The pathway in which RuBP (Ribulose Biphosphala) is converted into serine is called photorespiration.
  • How much CO2 is present in venous and arterial blood? Ans: Arterial blood contains 50 ml of carbon dioxide per 100 ml of blood whereas venous blood has 54 ml of carbon dioxide per 100 ml of blood.
  • How the rate of carbon dioxide fixation is lowered? Ans: The photorespiration is a process in which ribulose biphosphala carboxylas/ oxygenase fixes oxygen instead of carbon dioxide which results in lowering the overall rate of carbon dioxide fixation and plant growth.
  • differentiate between inspiration and expiration. Ans: Inspiration:  Inspiration is the intake of air inside the lungs.  During inspiration the space inside the chest cavity is raised.  Muscles of ribs contract and elevate the rib upwards and forwards.  The muscles of diaphragm contract and become less dome-like.  Pressure from the lungs is removed and they expand and vacuum is created due to which air rushes inside the lungs.
