Heart
The heart is a muscular organ about the size of a fist, located just behind and slightly left of the breastbone.
The heart pumps blood through the network of arteries and veins called the cardiovascular system.

IMMUNITY AND DISEASES
Immunity to a disease is achieved through the presence of antibodies to that disease in a person’s system.
Antibodies are proteins produced by the body to neutralize or destroy toxins or disease-carrying organisms.
Antibodies are disease-specific.
Diseases and Immunity
- The disease-causing germs are also known as:
a) bacteria
b) virus
c) parasites
d) pathogens - Which of the following is/are pathogen/s?
a) bacteria
b) virus
c) fungi and parasites
d) all of these - The disease which is caused by pathogens is called………disease.
a) inherited disease
b) contagious disease
c) non-contagious disease
d) infectious disease
Explanation: Infectious diseases are disorders caused by organisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, or parasites. Many organisms live in and on our bodies. They’re normally harmless or even helpful. But under certain conditions, some organisms may cause disease. Some infectious diseases can be passed from person to person.
- Ali is an anemic person. His health issue is a/an
a) infectious disease
b) disease due to pathogens
c) viral attack
d) non-infectious disease
Explanation: Non-infectious diseases are not caused by pathogens and therefore cannot be spread from one person to another. Instead, non-infectious diseases are caused by factors such as genetics, malnutrition, environment, and lifestyle. Examples of non-infectious diseases include cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, and epilepsy.
- Which of the following is/are infectious disease/s?
a) Flu
b) Typhoid
c) Ringworm
d) All of these - Which of the following is NOT an infectious disease?

Innate Immunity:
INNATE IMMUNITY, also known as nonspecific immunity, is the defense system with which you were born. It protects you against all antigens. Innate immunity involves barriers that keep harmful materials from entering your body. These barriers form the first line of defense in the immune response.

Adaptive Immunity
Innate Immunity vs. Adaptive Immunity
- Innate Immunity: Includes fever, macrophages, epithelial cells, etc.
- Adaptive Immunity: Includes dendritic cells, T-helper cells, plasma cells, etc.
Adaptive immune responses are the basis for effective immunization against infectious diseases. The cells of the adaptive immune system include antigen-specific T cells, which are activated to proliferate through the action of APCs, and B cells, which differentiate into plasma cells to produce antibodies.

The immune cells that play a role in the third line of defense are B-cells and T-cells, both of which are white blood cells. The B-cells produce antibodies, while the T-cells help identify pathogenic cells and destroy targeted cells.
31) How does adaptive immunity or the third line of defense work?
- a) It identifies the germ cells
b) It makes special WBCs against germs
c) It stops the entry of germs
d) Both a and b
32) Which of the following is/are made by the third line of defense against germs?

Excretion and Excretory System:
The system that helps to eliminate waste materials from the body is called the excretory system.
- The process of removing the waste product from the body is known as excretion.
- The excretory system removes non-solid wastes through sweat, urine, and exhalation. It also helps to maintain stability in the body.
- The main organs of this system are the skin, lungs, kidney, ureter, urinary bladder, and urethra.
- The structural and functional unit of the kidney is called the nephron.
- The kidneys are organs that remove wastes by filtering and cleaning the blood to produce urine. This urine moves through the ureters, is collected in the bladder, and excreted by the urethra.
- The kidney is divided into three regions:
- Renal cortex – the outermost region.
- Renal medulla – the middle region.
- Renal pelvis – the inner area where urine is drained.
Role of Kidneys:
- The kidneys are among the main organs responsible for maintaining fluid and chemical balance in your body within the limits that support life.
Interesting Facts:
- One-quarter of your blood supply passes through your kidney every minute.
- The most common kidney problems are kidney stones, high blood pressure, and diabetes.
- Excretory organs of the human body are called kidneys.

Amylase is an enzyme, or special protein, that helps you digest carbohydrates. Most of the amylase in your body is made by your pancreas and salivary glands. A small amount of amylase in your blood and urine is normal.
A protease (also called a peptidase or proteinase) is an enzyme that catalyzes (increases reaction rate or “speeds up”) proteolysis, breaking down proteins into smaller polypeptides or single amino acids and spurring the formation of new protein products.
Lipase is a type of protein made by your pancreas, an organ located near your stomach. Lipase helps your body digest fats. A high level of lipase can mean you have pancreatitis or another type of pancreas disease.
Nuclease is any enzyme that cleaves nucleic acids. Nucleases belong to the class of enzymes called hydrolases, which are specific in action, ribonucleases acting upon ribonucleic acids (RNA) and deoxyribonucleases acting upon deoxyribonucleic acids (DNA).

ACIDS, BASES, AND SALTS
ACIDS
Acidity is a characteristic property of acids. Acidic substances are usually very sour. Apart from hydrochloric acid, there are many other types of acids around us. Citrus fruits like lemons and oranges contain citric and ascorbic acids, while tamarind paste contains tartaric acid. In fact, the word ‘acid’ and ‘acidity’ are derived from the Latin word ‘acidus’, which means sour. If you dip a blue litmus paper into an acid, it will turn red while a red litmus paper will not change colour. Acids also liberate dihydrogen when they react with some metals.

Explanation:
Methyl orange is a pH indicator frequently used in titration because of its clear and distinct color variance at different pH values. Methyl orange shows red color in acidic medium and yellow color in basic medium. Because it changes color at the pKₐ of a mid-strength acid, it is usually used in titration for acids. Unlike a universal indicator, methyl orange does not have a full spectrum of color change, but it has a sharp endpoint. In a solution becoming less acidic, methyl orange changes from red to orange and, finally, to yellow—with the reverse process occurring in acidic conditions.

b) on larger area cylinder
c) on both cylinders
d) none of these - When pressure is applied on small cylinder, this pressure is……distributed in liquid?
a) differently
b) equally
c) both a and b
Explanation:
According to Pascal’s principle, the pressure is equal to the force divided by the area on which it acts. A pressure used on a piston produces an equal increase in pressure on the second piston in the system. If the area is 10 times the first area, the force on the second piston is 10 times greater, even the pressure is the same throughout the cylinder. The hydraulic press creates this effect, based on Pascal’s principle. Pascal also discovered that the pressure at a point in a fluid at rest is the same in all directions; the pressure would be the same on all planes passing through a specific point.

A variety of designs are possible including multi-stage rockets. Water rockets are also custom-built from composite materials to achieve world record altitudes.

Light converges at a point when it strikes and reflects back from the reflecting surface of the concave mirror. Hence, it is also known as a converging mirror.

However, if we increase the distance between the object and the mirror, then the size of the image reduces, and a real and inverted image is formed. The image formed by the concave mirror can be small or large and can be real or virtual.

Working of UPS:
An uninterruptible power supply or uninterruptible power source (UPS) is an electrical apparatus that provides emergency power to a load when the input power source or mains power fails. A UPS differs from an auxiliary or emergency power system or standby generator in that it will provide near-instantaneous protection from input power interruptions, by supplying energy stored in batteries, supercapacitors, or flywheels. The on-battery run-time of most uninterruptible power sources is relatively short (only a few minutes) but sufficient to start a standby power source or properly shut down the protected equipment. It is a type of continual power system.
