at the shoulder joint
Lower limb has
a complete ball and socket joint at the hip joint
B (i) (a) Glucose, amino acids, vitamins" hormones, water, mineral ions, creatin,
(b) Reabsorption
(ii) When
the amount of water in blood is less, the ability to dissolve substances in
blood is also less. This stimulates the osmoregulatory cells in hypothalamus
and secrete ADH. ADH increase the permeability to water in distal convoluted
tubules and collecting ducts and allow to absorb more water to the blood.
(C) (i) Sexual reproduction is the combination of (usually
haploid) reproductive cells (male and female gametes) from two individuals to
form an offspring (usually diploid)
(ii) (a) Perennation
(withstanding the adverse conditions by remaining underground and make new
plant when conditions are favourable.)
(b)
What are the adaptations of rhizome to do the function you mentioned above?
Having apical bud and axial buds
(iii) The life cycles of all land plants exhibit
alternation of generations, which means the presence of haploid generation and
diploid generation alternatively, with each producing the other.
(iv)In
some plants fruits are developed without fertilization. This condition is known
as parthenocarpy and fruits without seeds are known as
parthenocarpic fruits. In parthenogenesis seeds
are developed without fertilization by sperm nucleus but by fusing with polar
nucleus or by duplicating the genetic material.
(v) (a) Secretion of hormones, such as chorionic
gonadotropin, oestrogen and progesterone
(b) Exchange of materials between mother and child
