(a) Draw the structure of a neuron and label its nucleus, dendrite, cyton and axon. (b) Name that part of a neuron (i) which receives stimulus (ii) which transmits impulse

When we touch a hot plane unknowingly then this heat is sensed by a receptor P present in oyr fingers. The receptor triggers an impulse in neuron Q which transmits the message to an organ R which is a part of the central nervous system. Here the impulse is passed on to a neuron S which in turn passes it to a yet another neuron T. The neuron T passes the impulse to a tissue U in our arm. The tissue U then contracts and pulls or hand away from the hot plate. (a) What is the name of (i) receptor P (ii) neuron Q, and (iii) organ R? (b) What is (i) neuron S, and (ii) neuron T? (c) Name the tissue U. (d) What name is given to the phenomeon in which hand is pulled quickly from the hot plate? (e) Name the effector in this whole process.

Each question contains statements given in two columns , which have to be matched . Statements in olumn I are labelled as A, B, C and D , whereas statemets in column II are labelled as p,q,r, and s. Match the entries of column I with appropriate entries of column I amy have one or more than one correct option from column II. The answer to these questions have to be appropriately bubbled as illustrated in the given example , if the correct matches are A rarr (q, r), Brarr(p,s), C rarr (r, s) and Drarr (q) . If u is iitial speed of a particle and a is constant acceleration . {:("Column"I," Column"II),((A)u=0,ane0,,(p)"Rest"),((B)une0,a=0,,(q)"Straight line"),((C)une0,ane0,,(r)"Parabola"),((D)u=0,a=0,,(s)"Circle"):}

The human body contains a large number of cells A which are very long and branched, and look like electric wires. The longest branch of this cell is B whereas there are many small branches C. Any two A cells do not join to one another completely in the human body. There is a microscopic gap D between every pair of adjacent A cells through which electric impulse can pass by the release of a chemical substance. (a) What are cells A? (b) What is the name of (i) branch B, and (ii) branches C? (c) What is the microscopic gap D known as? (d) What is the function of cells like A in the human body? (e) The cells A are of three types. Name the three types.

Read the following statements and find out the incorrect statements. a. A synapse is formed by the membranes of a pre-synaptic neuron and a post-synaptic neuron, which may or may not be separated by a gap called synaptic cleft. b. At electrical synapses, the membranes of pre-and post-synaptic neurons are in very close proximity. c. Electrical current can flow directly from one neuron into the other across chemical synapses. d. Impulse trasmission across a chemical synapse is always faster than that across a electric synapse. e. Electrical synapses are rare in our system.
