Section A: Diagram Based Questions
- Draw a labeled diagram of the Male Reproductive System. Mark: Urinary Bladder, Vas deferens, Testis,
Ureter.
- Draw a labeled diagram of the Female Reproductive System. Mark: Ovary, Oviduct, Uterus, Cervix,
Vagina.
- In a diagram of a flower, identify the parts responsible for:
(a) Producing pollen.
(b) Receiving pollen.
(c) Becoming the fruit.
- Sketch the process of Binary Fission in Amoeba. (4 stages).
- Draw a diagram showing the germination of pollen on stigma. Mark 'Pollen tube' and 'Male germ cell'.
Section B: Scientific Reasoning
- Why is Variation beneficial to the species but not necessarily for the individual? (Survival in
changing niche).
- Why does the lining of the uterus become thick and spongy every month?
- Why is the process of spore formation better than fragmentation for Rhizopus? (Large numbers +
Protection by tough coat).
- Why are complex multicellular organisms not able to reproduce by simple regeneration? (Specialized
tissues).
- Why is DNA copying an essential part of the process of reproduction? (Blueprint inheritance).
- Why do more complex organisms have sexual reproduction? (To create variation for evolution).
- Why is the use of a condom considered a better method of contraception than pills? (No side effects
+ STD protection).
- Why is the temperature of the scrotum lower than body temperature?
Section C: Differentiate & Compare
- Differentiate between Pollination and Fertilization.
- Differentiate between Menarche and Menopause.
- Compare Binary Fission (Amoeba) and Multiple Fission (Plasmodium).
- Differentiate between Unisexual and Bisexual flowers. Give examples.
- Compare the functions of the Testis and Ovary.
