2. NCERT Exercise
Exercise
Q1. Why does an athlete breathe faster and deeper than usual after finishing the race?
Answer:
During running, the athlete uses up lot of energy. So, he/she needs more energy and so breathes faster breakdown of food to release energy.
Q2. List the similarities and differences between aerobic and anaerobic respiration.
Answer:
Similarity: (i) Energy is released.
(ii)Carbon dioxide is produced.
Differences: (i) Anaerbic respiration does not reqire oxygen while aerobic respiration take place in the presence of oxygen.
(ii) Glucose is completly broken down into carbon dioxide and water in aerobic respiration but not in anaerobic respiraton.
3. Why do we often sneeze when we inhale a lot of dust-laden air?
Answer:
When we inhale a lot of dust laden air often these particles get trapped in the hair present in the nasal cavity. then they irritate the lining of the cavity,as a result of which we sneeze. Sneezing expels these foregion particles from the inhaled air and a dust free, clean air enters our body.
4. Take three test-tubes.Fill th of each with water. Label them A, B and C. Keep a snail in test-tube A, a water plant in test-tube B and in C, keep snail and plant both. Which test-tube would have the highest concentration of CO2?
Answer:
Test - Tube - C.
