Answers

SECTION – A

1.The molecular formula of ‘A’ is C10H18 and ‘B’ is C18H36. Name the homologous series to which they belong.
Ans. ‘A’ belongs to alkyne as general formula of alkyne is C2nH2n_2.
‘B’ belongs to alkene as general formula of alkene is C„H2„.[CBSE Marking Scheme, 2012]

2.What is heredity ?
Ans. The transmission of characteristics from one generation to another is known as heredity. 1

3.List two items which can be easily recycled, but we generally throw them in the dust-bins.
Ans. Steel cans and paper can be easily recycled, but we generally throw them in dustbins.

4.Why is Government of India imposing a ban on the use of polythene bags ? Suggest two alternatives to these bags and explain how this ban is likely to improve the environment.
Ans. Government of India is imposing a ban on the use of polythene bags because they cannot be degraded naturally by the action of microorganisms. Because of their non-biodegradability, they stay in the soil for a long time and continue to poison it with toxic by-products that keep leaching from them. Also, they do not allow water to seep in, as they are waterproof. These polythene bags, when accidentally eaten by stray animals, can harm them and can even lead to their death.
Jute and cloth bags can be used in place of polythene bags.
They are environment-friendly as they are biodegradable.
They are renewable and can be easily recycled.
Thus, using jute and cloth bags will help to reduce pollution.                                                 2

5.”The chromosome number of the sexually reproducing parents and their offspring is the same.” Justify this statement.
Ans. Male individual have 46 chromosomes but because the gametes are always haploid i.e., they have half the number of chromosomes; sperms will be haploid (23 chromosomes). Female individual also contains only 23 chromosomes in egg. It is the fusion of the sperm and egg which leads to an offspring’s with 46 chromosomes.2

6.(a) With the help of a diagram demonstrate the process of regeneration as seen in planaria.
(b)Which type of cells are used by such multi-cellular organisms to regenerate ? (HOTS)
Ans.(a) Planaria is a type of flatworm. It has the amazing capacity to regenerate its lost bodypart. When the flatworm is cut horizontally, separating the head from the tail, the tail will regenerate the lost head and the head will regenerate the lost tail. This process is known as regeneration. The diagram illustrating the process of regeneration in Planaria is given below.

8.What is meant by Isomers ? Draw the structure of two isomers of butane, C4H10. Explain why we cannot have isomers of first three members of alkane series.
Ans. Isomers are the compounds which have the same molecular formula but different structural formula
cbse-sample-papers-for-class-10-sa2-science-solved-2016-set-5-a8
We cannot have isomers of the first three members of the alkane series because of the following laws of isomers :
(i) The parent chain should have the most number of carbon atoms.
(ii) The branching cannot be done from the first on the last atom carbon atom of the structure.
[CBSE Marking Scheme, 2015] 1 + 1 + 1

9.List two tests for experimentally distinguishing between an alcohol and a carboxylic acid and describe how these tests are performed.
Ans. ->Test 1 (Litmus Test) : Take two strips of blue litmus paper. Place a drop each of the alcohol and carboxylic acid on these strips separately. The blue litmus paper turns red in the case of carboxylic acid and remains unaffected in the case of alcohol.
-> Test 2 (Sodium hydrogen carbonate test/sodium carbonate test): A pinch of sodium hydrogen carbonate or sodium carbonate is added, to both separately. If brisk effervescence with the evolution of a colorless gas is observed, it indicates the presence of carboxylic acid.
If no change is observed then it confirms the presence of the alcohol. [CBSE Marking Scheme, 2015] 3

10.Define the following processes of asexual reproduction.
(i)Spore formation (ii) Regeneration (iii) Multiple fission
Ans. (i) Spore Formation is a common method of asexual reproduction in many lower forms of life, like bacteria, fungi etc. It occurs mostly during unfavourable conditions such as extreme heat, dryness etc. The spores are asexual reproducing bodies enclosed in a thick walled structure called sporangium. On return of favourable conditions, the sporangium wall bursts and the spores are released.
(ii) Regeneration means renewal, restoration, and growth. The process of getting back a full organism from its body parts is called regeneration. Some organism like Hydra, Planaria have the capability to develop a whole new organism from its cut body parts. Regeneration of an organism occurs by the process of growth and development. Regeneration occurs in those organisms which have relatively simple body organization consisting of a few specialized cells.
(iii) In multiple fission, the nucleus divides several times simultaneously or successively into a number of daughter nuclei and then the cytoplasm divides into as many cells as there are nuclei while each cell containing a nucleus. It is the common form of asexual reproduction in certain acellular organisms. 1 + 1 + 1

11.What is vegetative propagation ? When is it used ? List two uses.
Ans. It is an asexual method of reproduction. In this process, vegetative part of a plant body such as stem, leaves, bulbs, tubers are used for growing new plants by cutting, graftings and layering which are
identical to parents.
It is used to grow :
(a) Plants that have lost the capacity to produce seeds.
(b) Plants which are genetically similar enough to the parent plants. [CBSE Marking Scheme, 2012] 1 + 1 + 1

12.(a) With the help of a diagram, show asexual reproduction in Rhizopus?
(b) How this method is advantageous for Rhizopus ?
Ans. (a) Spore formation takes place in Rhizopus consists of fine thread like projection calledIt has a knob like structure which is involved in reproduction called sporangia, containing spores, that develop into new Rhizopus
cbse-sample-papers-for-class-10-sa2-science-solved-2016-set-5-a12
(b) More number of spores are produced which can easily help the Rhizopus to spread. [CBSE Marking Scheme, 2014] 2 + 1

13.What is the effect of DNA copying, which is not perfectly accurate, on the reproduction process ? How does the amount of DNA remain constant though each new generation in a combination of DNA copies of two individuals ?
Ans. Reproduction results in the production offspring similar to parents in body design and form. The exact blue prints of body design is inherited in the offspring due to DNA replication/DNA copying. The imperfect DNA copying results in genetic variations that can be both useful or harmful for the offspring. The useful variations gets selected in nature and helps organism to survive in the changing environment while as harmful variation gets eliminated.
If each new generation is to be the combination of the DNA copies from two pre-existing individuals, then each new generation will end up having twice the amount of DNA that the previous generation had. In sexual reproduction, the gametes usually contain half number of chromosomes compared to the chrome gametes and same numbers present in the body cells. These haploid gametes when fuse produce a new cell with double number of chromosomes than the gametes and same as the body cells. In this way organisms restrict doubling of DNA and maintain the chromosome number.

14.(a) Name any two plants that reproduce by grafting.
(b) List any two benefits to an organism that reproduces through spores ?
Ans. (a) Rose / Sugarcane, Grapes.
(b) (i) Many organisms can be produced at the same time.
(ii) Organisms are able to tide over unfavourable conditions.

15.Define absolute refractive index. Absolute refractive indices of medium A’ and medium ‘B’ are ‘na‘ and ‘nb‘, What is the refractive index of medium ‘B’ with respect to medium A’? How does the velocity of light vary with change in the optical density of the media ?
Ans. Refractive index of a medium with respect to vacuum is called the absolute refractive index.
Refractive index of B w.r.t. A = nb/ na Higher the optical density, lesser is the velocity of light in the medium.

16.(i) Ravi kept a book at a distance of 10 cm from the eyes of his friend Hari. Hari is not able to read anything written on the book. Explain why ?
(ii)A lens of focal length 5.0 cm is being used by a student in the laboratory as a magnifying glass. His least distance of distinct vision is 25 cm. What magnification is the student getting ?
Ans. (i) Because least distance of distinct vision is 25 cm, and book is kept at a distance of 10 cm.
(ii) Given that,   f = 5 cm
Let distance of distinct vision = Minimum distinct of object to clear vision = Object distance = u = -25cm,
