Show Answer
Ans.(c)
Sol. Cyanobacteria or blue-green algae is an example of a biofertilizer, a type of organic fertilizer which contains living organisms naturally occurring inputs like solar energy, nitrogen, and water to ensure soil fertility and plant growth. Blue-green algae are mainly used as biofertilizer in the crop paddy.

Q11. The blood pressure in our body is-
हमारे शरीर का रक्तचाप है-
(a) Lesser than the atmospheric pressure / वायुमंडलीय दबाव से कम
(b) Greater than the atmospheric pressure / वायुमंडलीय दबाव से अधिक
(c) Equal to the atmospheric pressure / वायुमंडलीय दबाव के बराबर
(d) None of the above / उपरोक्त में से कोई भी नहीं
Show Answer
Ans.(b)
Sol. The normal atmospheric pressure is 760 mm of Hg. But the normal human blood pressure is around 120/80 mmHg only. Actually when a doctor measure our blood pressure the measurement is done in respect of atmospheric pressure. This means that our blood pressure 120mm Hg more than that of atmospheric pressure of that place. On the other hand atmospheric pressure is measured with respect of vacuum, So the actual blood pressure of our body will be 760 + 120 = 880 mm Hg with respect to vacuum.
Q12. What is the basic feature of antigen- Sol. The normal atmospheric pressure is 760 mm of Hg. But the normal human blood pressure is around 120/80 mmHg only.

(d) It acts against the antibodies/ यह एंटीबॉडीज़ के खिलाफ कार्य करती है
Show Answer
Ans.(b)
Sol. An antigen is usually a foreign protein molecule (in some cases it is a polysaccharide) which enters the body fluids of an animal as part of an infectious agent and is capable of inducing the production of specific antibodies. An antibody is a molecule produced by animals in response to antigen and has the particular property of combining specifically with the antigen which induced its formation. It is a blood protein (globulin) which may make an infected animal immune to a foreign antigen. This response is called the immune response.

Q13. The diameter of white blood corpuscles in human body is, about:
मानव शरीर में श्वेत रक्त कोशिकाओं का व्यास लगभग कितना है:
(a) 0.007 mm /मि.मी.
(b) 0.7 mm /मि.मी.
(c) 0.07 mm/मि.मी.
(d) 0.0007 mm/मि.मी.
Show Answer
Ans.(a)
Sol. The number of leukocytes in the blood is often an indicator of disease. The normal white blood cell count is 4,000–11,000 per micro litre of blood. They make up approximately 1% of the total blood volume in a healthy adult. An increase in the number of leukocytes over the upper limits is called leukocytosis, and a decrease below the lower limit is called leukopenia. The diameter of W.B.C. in human body is about 0.007 mm.

Q14. In human body most of the digestive process, takes place in-
मानव शरीर में अधिकांश पाचन प्रक्रिया, कहाँ होती है-
(a) Pancreas / अग्न्याशय
(b) Large intestine / बड़ी आँत
(c) Small intestine / छोटी आंत
(d) Stomach / आमाशय
Show Answer
Ans.(c)
Sol. Digestion begins in the mouth when we chew and swallow and is completed in the small intestine. The small intestine is a long tube loosely coiled in the abdomen (spread out, it would be more than 20 feet long). The small intestine continues the process of breaking down food by using enzymes released by the pancreas and bile from the liver.

Q15. लार किसके पाचन में सहायता करती है -
(a) Starch/स्टार्च
(b) Proteins/प्रोटीन
(c) Fibres/फाइबर
(d) Fat /वसा
Show Answer
Ans.(a)
Sol. Saliva is a watery substance located in the mouths of man and animals, secreted by the salivary glands. Human saliva is 99.5% water, while the other 0.5% consists of electrolytes, mucus, glycoproteins, enzymes (amylase) and antibacterial compounds such as secretory IgA and lysozyme. The enzymes found in saliva are essential to begin the process of digestion of dietary starches.
