What is the primary biological process that ensures continuity of life among living organisms? | Card: 1 / 64 |
Reproduction is the primary biological process that ensures continuity of life among living organisms. | Card: 2 / 64 |
Vegetative propagation enhances agricultural practices.
| Card: 6 / 64 |
Meiosis reduces the chromosome number by half, producing haploid gametes and allowing for genetic variation in offspring. | Card: 8 / 64 |
Self-pollination vs Cross-pollination
| Card: 12 / 64 |
True or False: Budding is a method of asexual reproduction observed in yeast and hydra. | Card: 13 / 64 |
How does pollination contribute to the process of fertilisation in flowering plants? | Card: 17 / 64 |
Pollination aids fertilization in plants.
| Card: 18 / 64 |
Genetic variation is vital for evolution.
| Card: 20 / 64 |
Gametogenesis produces sperm and eggs.
| Card: 22 / 64 |
Riddle: I am produced in large numbers, yet many do not survive. I carry genetic material and help create new life. What am I? | Card: 23 / 64 |
What happens to the uterine lining if an egg is not fertilised during the menstrual cycle? | Card: 25 / 64 |
The uterine lining sheds along with some blood, a process known as menstruation. | Card: 26 / 64 |
The ovary produces eggs and hormones that regulate the menstrual cycle and reproductive functions. | Card: 28 / 64 |
False - External fertilisation is typical in fish and amphibians, while internal fertilisation occurs in mammals. | Card: 30 / 64 |
Grafting helps propagate plants with desirable traits, enhancing yield and resistance to diseases. | Card: 32 / 64 |

Fill in the blank: The process by which a fertilised egg develops into a foetus occurs in the ___. | Card: 33 / 64 |
The menstrual cycle prepares the uterus for possible pregnancy by thickening its lining and releasing a mature egg during ovulation. | Card: 36 / 64 |
The male reproductive system produces sperm and hormones, facilitating reproduction. | Card: 38 / 64 |
Riddle: I am a protective structure that supports the growth of a new organism before birth. What am I? | Card: 39 / 64 |
Using contraceptives prevents unwanted pregnancies.
| Card: 42 / 64 |
During the first trimester, the fertilised egg develops into an embryo, and major organs begin to form. | Card: 44 / 64 |
The sperm has a long tail that propels it forward, allowing it to swim towards the egg. | Card: 46 / 64 |
Removing stamens from a flower and manually transferring pollen to the stigma of another flower. | Card: 48 / 64 |
True or False: All reproductive methods in animals ensure the survival of offspring equally. | Card: 49 / 64 |
False - Different methods like external and internal fertilisation have varying survival rates for the offspring. | Card: 50 / 64 |
ASHA workers provide guidance on maternal health, hygiene, immunisation, and safe deliveries, particularly in rural areas. | Card: 52 / 64 |
Fill in the blank: The process of cell division that produces genetically identical cells during asexual reproduction is called ___. | Card: 53 / 64 |
Meiosis creates genetic diversity by shuffling chromosomes and producing unique combinations in gametes. | Card: 56 / 64 |
Riddle: I am a cycle that repeats every month, marking a woman's readiness for reproduction. What am I? | Card: 57 / 64 |
Maternal health is crucial as it directly affects the baby's development; adequate nutrition, rest, and medical care are essential. | Card: 60 / 64 |
The zygote is the first cell formed after fertilisation, which will eventually develop into a new organism. | Card: 62 / 64 |
How does sexual reproduction differ from asexual reproduction in terms of genetic outcome? | Card: 63 / 64 |
Sexual reproduction creates genetic diversity.
| Card: 64 / 64 |
