    RESPIRATION IN ORGANISMS
    EXERCISE
    Q1. Why does an athlete breathe faster and deeper than usual after finishing the race?
    Answer: During the run, the demand of energy is high but the supply of oxygen to produce energy is
    limited. Therefore, anaerobic respiration takes places in the muscle cells to fulfil the demand of
    energy. After finishing the race, an athlete breathes faster and deeper than usual so that more oxygen
    is supplied to the cells.
    Q2. List the similarities and differences between aerobic and anaerobic respiration.
    Answer: Similarity:
    I. In both aerobic and anaerobic respiration, food is broken down to release energy.
    II. Both takes place inside cells.
    III. Both produces byproducts.
    Differences:
    Aerobic Respiration Anaerobic Respiration

    It takes place in the presence of oxygen. It takes place in the absence of oxygen.
    Energy is released in higher amount. Energy is released in lesser amount.

    Carbon dioxide and water are produced as Carbon dioxide and water are produced as
    byproducts. byproducts.
    It is a slow process. It is a fast process.
    Examples: Animals and plants cells. Examples: Human cells, yeast, Bacteria etc.
    Q3. Why do we often sneeze when we inhale a lot of dust-laden air?
    Answer: We often sneeze when we inhale a lot of dust-laden air to expel out these foreign particles.
    These particles get past the hair in the nasal cavity and irritate the lining of the cavity which results in
    sneezing.
    Q4. Take three test-tubes. Fill each of them 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 A will have the highest concentration of CO2 because snail will take in oxygen and
    gives out CO2.
    In test-tubes B and C, the CO2 will be utilized by the water plant for synthesizing food and hence there
    will be less concentration of CO2 in these.
    Q5. Tick the correct answer:
    (a) In cockroaches, air enters the body through
    i. lungs
    ii. gills
    iii. Spiracles
    iv. Skin
    Answer: (iii) spiracles
    (b) During heavy exercise, we get cramps in the legs due to the accumulation of
    i. carbon dioxide
    ii. lactic acid
    iii. alcohol
    iv. Water
    Answer: (ii) lactic acid
    (c) Normal range of breathing rate per minute in an average adult person at rest is:
    i. 9 – 12
    ii. 15 – 18
    iii. 21 – 24
    iv. 30 – 33
    Answer: (ii) 15 – 18

    (d) During exhalation, the ribs


    (i) move outwards
    (ii) move downwards
    (iii) move upwards
    (iv) Do not move at all
    Answer: (ii) move downwards
    Q6. Match the items in Column I with those in Column II:
    Answer:
    Column I Column II
    (a) Yeast (iii) Alcohol
    (b) Diaphragm (iv) Chest cavity
    (c) Skin (i) Earthworm
    (d) Leaves (v) Stomata
    (e) Fish (ii) Gills
    (f) Frog (vi) Lungs and skin
    Q7. Mark T if the statement is true and F if it is false:
    i. During heavy exercise the breathing rate of a person slows down. (T/ F)
    ii. Plants carry out photosynthesis only during the day and respiration only at night. (T/ F)
    iii. Frogs breathe through their skins as well as their lungs. (T/ F)
    iv. The fishes have lungs for respiration. (T/ F)
    v. The size of the chest cavity increases during inhalation. (T/ F)
    Answer:
    i. F
    ii. F
    iii. T
    iv. F
    v. T
