Sometimes we get painful cramps in our leg muscles after running for a long time due to the accumulation of:
a)
Lactic acid
b)
Carbon dioxide
c)
Hydrochloric acid
d)
Fat
|
Vikram Kapoor answered |
- During heavy exercise, the demand for energy is high but the supply of oxygen to produce energy is limited. Therefore, anaerobic respiration takes place in the muscle cells to fulfil the demand for energy.
- This anaerobic breakdown of glucose leads to the formation of lactic acid in muscles.
- The accumulation of lactic acid in muscles leads to muscle cramps.
Thus option A is correct.

Raghav Bansal answered |
2. Alimentary Canal
Explanation: The movement of food through the esophagus is primarily due to a process called peristalsis. Peristalsis is a series of wave-like muscle contractions that move food through the digestive tract, including the esophagus, which is a part of the alimentary canal. While lubrication by saliva helps in swallowing, the actual movement of food down the esophagus is due to the coordinated contractions of the muscles in the walls of the alimentary canal.

Parth Basu answered |
- When a pair of guard cells surrounding a stoma receives the signal to open the stomatal pore, it is filled with water, thus changing the cell's shape and opening the pore.
- When guard cells receive a signal to close the stoma, this initiates a loss of water and causes them to shrink and the pore closes.
Thus, option C is correct.

**Transpiration Organ in Plants:**
The correct answer to the question is option 'A' - Epidermis.
**Explanation:**
The transpiration organ in plants is the epidermis. The epidermis is the outermost layer of cells covering the leaves, stems, and roots of plants. It serves as a protective barrier against mechanical injury, pathogens, and excessive water loss. It also plays a crucial role in the process of transpiration.
**Transpiration:**
Transpiration is the process by which plants lose water in the form of water vapor through the stomata, which are tiny openings present on the epidermis of leaves and stems. It is an essential process for plants as it helps in the absorption and transport of water and nutrients, cooling the plant, and maintaining turgidity.
**Role of Epidermis in Transpiration:**
The epidermis of leaves and stems contains specialized cells called guard cells, which surround and control the opening and closing of the stomata. When the plant needs to release excess water vapor, the guard cells open the stomata, allowing water to evaporate from the leaf surface. This process is known as transpiration.
**Structure of Epidermis:**
The epidermis is made up of tightly packed cells with a waxy layer called the cuticle on the outer surface. The cuticle helps in reducing water loss by acting as a waterproof barrier. However, the majority of transpiration occurs through the stomata.
**Importance of Transpiration:**
Transpiration is essential for several reasons:
1. Water and nutrient absorption: Transpiration creates a continuous flow of water and nutrients from the roots to the leaves, allowing plants to receive the necessary resources for growth and development.
2. Cooling effect: Transpiration helps in cooling the plant by releasing water vapor, similar to how sweating cools our bodies.
3. Maintaining turgidity: Transpiration maintains turgidity in plant cells, preventing wilting and maintaining the overall health and structure of the plant.
In conclusion, the epidermis of plants serves as the transpiration organ because it contains the stomata, which are responsible for the release of water vapor during the process of transpiration.

Hb found in Red Blood Cells (RBCs) combines with Dioxygen (O2) to form Oxyhaemoglobin, which is transported throughout the body by Blood. A Hb molecule can hold 4 oxygen molecules. When this complex comes to its destination (any cell), it is broken into former forms of Hb and Dioxygen.

Photosynthesis takes place in the green leaves of plants and other green parts of plants like stem etc. The most active photosynthetic tissue in higher plants is the mesophyll of leaves. Mesophyll cells have many chloroplasts, which contain the specialized light-absorbing green pigments, the chlorophylls. When chlorophyll absorbs light, it gets excited and emits electrons. These chlorophylls are found in photosynthetic units called Photosystem I and Photosystem II. Each unit has a specific reaction centre which contains pigment molecules. These molecules absorb light of different wavelengths and emit electrons. Due to the photon of light, electrons of chlorophyll get excited. These electrons are picked up by an electron acceptor which passes them to an electron transport system of cytochromes. The excitement of electrons of chlorophyll b photon of light is the first step of photosynthesis.

Heterotrophic nutrition is a mode of nutrition in which organisms depend upon other organisms for food to survive. Heterotrophic organisms have to take in all the organic substances they need to survive. All animals, certain types of fungi, and non-photosynthesizing plants are heterotrophic.

Nk Classes answered |
The counter-current mechanism in the nephron primarily functions to concentrate urine by creating a concentration gradient in the medulla of the kidney. This gradient is established by the counter-current flow of fluids in the ascending and descending limbs of the loop of Henle, which facilitates the reabsorption of water and concentrates the urine.

Understanding Hemodialysis
Hemodialysis is a medical procedure used to treat kidney failure. It plays a crucial role in filtering and purifying the blood when the kidneys can no longer perform this function effectively.
How Hemodialysis Works
- Blood Filtration: Hemodialysis involves the use of a machine called a dialyzer, commonly referred to as an artificial kidney.
- Mimicking Kidney Function: The dialyzer filters waste products, excess fluid, and toxins from the blood, simulating the natural filtration process of healthy kidneys.
- Blood Circulation: During the procedure, blood is drawn from the body, circulated through the dialyzer, and then returned to the body, effectively cleansing the blood of harmful substances.
Why Other Options are Incorrect
- Option B: Storing excess water from the blood is not a function of hemodialysis; rather, the process removes excess water.
- Option C: Hemodialysis does not absorb waste directly from the urine; it cleanses the blood by filtering it.
- Option D: Reabsorbing glucose and amino acids into the blood is a function of the kidneys, not hemodialysis.
Conclusion
In summary, option 'A' accurately describes hemodialysis as it effectively filters blood using a device that mimics kidney function, addressing the critical need for patients with impaired kidney performance.
