Question 9.
Paheli noticed water being pulled up by a motor pump to an overhead tank of a five storeyed building. She wondered how water moves up to great heights in the tall trees standing next to the building. Can you tell why? [NCERT Exemplar; HOTS]
Answer:
When the water is pulled up by a motor-pump to an overhead tank of a five storeyed building, it moves to a great height due to the suction pull. This pull forms the continuous column of water and water rises up to a great height. Similarly, when transpiration occurs in the plants, water is evaporated and this creates a suction pull in the plants.

Due to this suction pressure, water from the soil rises up through the roots of the plants and reaches to a great height in tall plants.

Question 10.
How is transpiration and translocation different from each other.
Answer:
The differences between transpiration and translocation are

TranspirationTranslocation
The evaporation of water from the leaves of plant is called transpiration.The transport of soluble products of photosynthesis from leaves (from where they are formed) to the other parts, of plants is called translocation.
It takes place through stomata present in the lower surface of leaf.It occurs in the part of the vascular tissue known as phloem.

Question 11.

Question 15.
Paheli says her mother puts ladyfinger and other vegetables in water if they are somewhat dry. She wants to know how water enters into them. [HOTS]
Answer:
By soaking the vegetables in water, the skin of the vegetables becomes moist and water starts moving from one cell to another until the vegetables are fresh again.

Question 16.
Why plants absorb a large quantity of water from the soil, then give it off by transpiration?
Answer:
Plants absorb a large quantity of water from the soil because they need nutrients which are dissolved in the water. The excess water evaporates through the stomata present on the leaf surface by the process of transpiration.

Question 17.

(b) Animals that excrete uric acid in the form of pellets (i.e. uricotelics)—Bird, snake, rat, lizard, snail.
(c) Animals that excrete urea in the form of urine (i.e. ureotelics)-Frog, cow, man, monkey, toad.

Question 18.
Human have two major organs that perform transport of materials. Organ ‘A’ is bean-shaped and dark red in colour lie just above the waist. It helps in’removal of ‘Q’, a waste material from blood. The organ ‘S’ is the opening at the end of the urinary bladder through which the waste material is eliminated.
Organ ‘B’ lies in the chest cavity slightly tilted towards the left side. It pumps continuously and pours liquid ‘C’ into arteries and through very fine tube-like structure ‘D’ distributes the liquid to various parts of the body. What are the name of these organs. [HOTS]
Answer:
Organ ‘A’ is kidney which is bean-shaped and helps in the removal of urea (Q) which is a waste material from the blood. ‘S’ is urethra which is the small opening at the end of urinary bladder. Organ ‘B’ is heart which acts as pump. It pumps liquid blood continuously and pours into arteries, and through capillaries (D) which are fine tube-like structure, the blood is distributed to various parts of the body.

Question 19.
The major function of the arteries is to carry to oxygenated blood throughout the body and that of veins is to carry deoxygenated blood from body parts to heart for purification. There is one artery that carries deoxygenated blood and one vein that carries oxygenated blood. Name the artery and vein. [HOTS]
Answer:
The artery which carries deoxygenated blood or blood rich in CO2 is pulmonary artery while the pulmonary vein is one which carries oxygenated blood. The pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood from heart to lungs while pulmonary vein carries oxygenated blood from lungs to heart.

Question 20.
Boojho’s uncle was hospitalised and put on dialysis after a severe infection in both of his kidneys.
(a) What is dialysis?
(b) When does it become necessary to take such a treatment?
Answer:
The normal functioning of kidney is necessary for good health of a person. But sometime s the kidney may stop working due to infection or injury. This condition of kidney is called kidney failure which may lead to the accumulation of urea in the blood of a person. Since, urea is a toxic substance which must be removed from the blood. Such person having kidney failure cannot survive unless his blood is filtered periodically through the artificial kidney machine to remove urea. The process used for cleaning the blood of a person by separating the waste product urea from it is called dialysis.This machine removes urea and other waste the product periodically.

The long term solution for the patient suffering from kidney failure is kidney transplantation. In this method, the diseased or damaged kidney is removed and matching kidney is donated by a healthy person. The donated kidney is transplanted in its place by performing surgery.

Question 21.
The internal structure of heart has four chambers.
(a) Name the upper chambers of heart.
(b) Name the lower chambers of heart.
Answer:
The vertical section of heart shows that heart is divided into four compartments called as chambers.
(a) The upper two chambers of heart are called atria or atrium.
(b) The lower two chambers of heart are called ventricles.

Question 22.
Explain in brief the main functions of the structural and functional unit of kidney in excretory system.
Answer:
Kidney is the major excretory organ which consists of thousands of tiny filters called nephrons. The major functions of nephron are

  • To filter blood at high pressure which helps in the separation of nitrogenous waste such as urea from the blood.
  • It helps in selective re-absorption of some substances (from the initial filtrate which is filtered at a very high pressure). These substances include glucose, amino acid, salts ancf a major amount of water.

Question 23.
What is the special feature present in a human heart which does not allow mixing of blood when oxygen-rich and carbon dioxide-rich blood reach the heart? [NCERT Exemplar]
Answer:
In human, the heart has four chambers. The two upper chambers are called the atria and the two lower chambers are called the ventricles. The partition between the chambers helps to avoid mixing up of blood rich in oxygen with the blood rich in carbon dioxide.

(c) The blood clot is formed due to the presence of the cells called platelets in the blood.

Question 3.
Like humans and animals, transportation of water, mineral and nutrients also take place in plants. How?
Answer:
Transport of Substances in Plants
Plants take up water and dissolved minerals from the soil through their roots and transport it to their leaves. The leaves use this water and mineral for synthesising their food by the process called photosynthesis.The food produced by green plants in transported back to all the parts of plant body.
Therefore, it is clear that plants also need a transport system for carrying water, minerals and food through various parts of their body.
Transportation in Animals and Plants Class 7 Extra Questions Science Chapter 11 9
Transport of Water and Minerals
Plant root absorbs the water and mineral from the soil. The roots possess root hair which increase the surface area of the root for absorption of water and minerals nutrient that is dissolved in the water. It is moved from roots up to the stem and leaves through the tube-like tissue called as xylem.

Absorption and flow of water is a continuous process through the xylem tissue. Xylem tissues are the continuous network of channels which connect roots to the leaves through the stem and branches. It thus transports water and minerals to the leaves of the entire plant.

Transport of Food Material
The food manufactured in the leaf is transported to different parts of plants. This transportation of food material from leaves to the other parts of plants is carried out by the tissue called phloem and the process of transport of food material is called translocation. The phloem consists of vessels that are known as sieve tubes.

Question 4.
Blood from heart is carried by certain tube-like structure. What are they? Give the structure and functions of different types of blood carrying tubes.
Answer:
These are tubes or pipes that carry blood throughout the body. It runs between the heart and the rest of the body. There are three major types of blood vessels in the body, i.e. arteries, veins and capillaries.
Transportation in Animals and Plants Class 7 Extra Questions Science Chapter 11 10
1. Arteries: These carry blood from the heart to all the parts of body. These lie quite deep under our skin and cannot be seen easily. Arteries have thick elastic walls as the blood flows at high pressure due to pumping action from heart through arteries. No valves are present in the arteries. The main artery, i.e. aorta is connected to the left ventricle of the heart. It carries oxygenated blood from the left ventricle to all the parts of body except the lungs. Another artery called pulmonary artery is connected to the right ventricle of the heart and carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs.
Note: The arteries normally carry oxygenated blood from the heart but one artery called pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood from heart to lungs.

2. Veins: These are the blood vessels that carry blood from all the parts of the body back to the heart. These tube-like blood vessels are situated just under the skin and can easily be seen as greenish-blue tubes or lines below the skin. These carry deoxygenated blood from the body parts to heart. Veins have thin walls and blood flows at low pressure through the veins. Therefore, veins have valves in them which allow the blood to flow in one direction and prevent the back flow of blood in veins.
Usually veins carry deoxygenated blood but pulmonary vein that is connected to the left atrium of the heart, carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart.

Functions of Blood
Various functions of blood are

  • It transports substances like digested food from the small intestine to the other parts of the body.
  • It carries water to all the parts of the body.
  • It carries oxygen and C02 during circulation.
  • It carries waste products like urea from liver to kidney for excretion in urine.
  • It protects the body from disease.

Question 7.
(a) What are the different blood groups in human?
(b) Define blood group compatibility.
(c) Make a table to show the donor blood group and recipient blood group.
Answer:
(a) The blood group of an individual human being always remains unchanged throughout their life. Karl Landsteiner described that human blood can be divided into four groups, i.e. A, B, AB and O. These are named on the basis of substance present in the blood (RBC). Every man has one of these four groups of blood which is inherited from parents to offspring and is never changed.

If a person gets injured and heavy blood loss occurs, there is a need to give blood of other person to the patient. The person who gives the blood is called donor while the person who receives the blood is called
recipient.

(b) The process of donation of blood from one person to another is called blood transfusion. Before donation, the blood group must be matched because transfusion of different groups can be dangerous. The RBCs of the patient receiving blood will stick together and may cause death of the patient. This matching of blood group is called blood group compatibility. It can be shown as follows :
