B. A sportsman, after a long break of his routine exercise, suffered muscular cramps during a heavy
exercise session. This happened due to:

(a) lack of carbon dioxide and formation of pyruvate.

(b) presence of oxygen and formation of ethanol.

(c) lack of oxygen and formation of lactic acid.

(d) lack of oxygen and formation of carbon dioxide.

C. Oxygen liberated during photosynthesis comes from:

(a)Water (b) Chlorophyll (c) carbon dioxide (d) glucose

D. What type of chemical reactions take place when electricity is passed through water?

E. A student traces the path of a ray of light through a glass prism for different angles of incidence. He
analyses each diagram and draws the following conclusion:

(I)On entering prism, the light ray bends towards its base.

(II) Light ray suffers refraction at the point of incidence and point of emergence while passing through
the prism.

(III) Emergent ray bends at certain angle to the direction of the incident ray.

(IV) While emerging from the prism, the light ray bends towards the vertex of the prism.

Out of the above inferences, the correct ones are:

(a) (I), (II) and (III) (b) (I), (III) and (IV) (c) (II), (III) and (IV) (d) (I) and
(IV)

d) + 60cm from the pole

G. Galvanization is a method of protecting Iron from rusting by coating with a thin layer of

a) Gallium b) Aluminium c) Zinc d) Silver

H. Sphincter muscles are present at the exit of:

(a) Stomach and small intestine (b) Stomach and anus (c) Small intestine and large
intestine (d) Oesophagus and stomach

I. An object is placed at a distance of 40cm in front of a concave mirror of a focal length of 20 cm. The
image produced is:

(a) virtual and inverted (b) real and erect

(c) real, inverted and of the opposite size as that of the object (d) real, inverted and of
the same size as that of the object.

A. Write the balanced chemical equations for the following reactions and identify the type of reaction in
each case.

(b) Nitrogen gas is treated with hydrogen gas in the presence of a catalyst at 773K to form ammonia
gas.

(c) Solid calcium oxide reacts with water to form calcium hydroxide accompanied by liberation of heat.

from the mirror.

(a) Find the distance of the image from the object.

(b) What is the focal length of the mirror?

C. Draw a ray diagram to show the path of the refracted ray in each of the following cases: A ray of light
incident on a concave lens is

(i)Passing through its optical centre. (ii)Parallel to its principal

axis.

D. What is the major difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?

(ii)What are the byproducts of anaerobic respiration in muscle cells and yeast respectively?

(iii)In which part of the cell does aerobic respiration primarily occur?

E. (a) Draw a sectional view of the human heart and label these parts in the diagram – Aorta, Right
ventricle and Pulmonary veins.

(b) State the functions of the following components of our circulatory system: (i) Blood (ii) Lymph

Q3. Case based question:

Hold a concave mirror in your hand and direct its reflecting surface towards the sun. Direct the light
reflected by the mirror on to a white card-board held close to the mirror. Move the cardboard back and
forth gradually until you find a bright, sharp spot of light on the board. This spot of light is the image of
the sun on the sheet of paper; which is also termed as “Principal Focus” of the concave mirror.

(a)List two applications of concave mirror.

(b) If the distance between the mirror and the principal focus is 15 cm, find the radius of curvature of
the mirror.

(c) Draw a ray diagram to show the type of image formed when an object is placed between pole and
focus of a concave mirror.

OR

(c)An object 10 cm in size is placed at 100 cm in front of a concave mirror. If its image is formed at the
same point where the object is located, find:

(i) focal length of the mirror (ii) magnification .
