Worksheet Answers: Biology, Physics, Chemistry

Biology

1. Fill in the blanks:

a) The basic structural and functional unit of life is the cell.

b) The jelly-like substance present between the cell membrane and the nucleus is called cytoplasm.

c) Plant cells have an additional outer covering called the cell wall.

d) The organelle responsible for energy production in cells is the mitochondria.

2. Definitions:

a) Prokaryotic cell: A cell that lacks a well-defined nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.

b) Plasma membrane: A semi-permeable membrane that controls movement of substances in/out.

c) Osmosis: Movement of water molecules from higher to lower concentration across a membrane.

3. Difference between Plant and Animal Cell:

| Feature | Plant Cell | Animal Cell |

|---------------|--------------------------|---------------------------|

| Cell wall | Present | Absent |

| Vacuole | One large central vacuole| Many small or none |

| Chloroplast | Present | Absent |

4. Name the following:

a) Control center - Nucleus

b) Storage sacs - Vacuoles

c) Digestion organelle - Lysosomes


d) Nuclear separator - Nuclear membrane

5. Short answers:

a) Plasma membrane is selectively permeable because it allows only certain substances to pass.

b) Ribosomes help in protein synthesis.

6. Reason: Plant cells have a cell wall that prevents bursting, while animal cells don't.

7. See plant cell diagram.

8. Nucleus: It contains DNA, controls cell activities, includes nuclear membrane, nucleolus, etc.

Physics

1. Average speed = 90 km/h

2. Total distance = 210 m, Total time = 15 s, Average speed = 14 m/s

3. Retardation = 2 m/s², Distance = 100 m


4. Time for train B to overtake A = 40 h

5. Time to reach height = 2 s, Max height = 20 m

6. Yes. Example: Top of a vertical throw

7. a) Uniform retardation b) 5 m/s²

8. Total distance = 512.5 m, Total time = 20 s, Average speed = 25.63 m/s

Chemistry

1. Tincture of iodine is a solution of iodine in alcohol used as an antiseptic.

2. A solution is dilute if it has less solute in more solvent and concentrated if it has more solute.
