What is the term for Dilute & Non-Dilute Solutions ?
Very Dilute → Hypotonic
Very Concentrated → Hypertonic
What is the formula of Carbohydrate ?
C6H12O6
What does ORS Contain ?
Water and Electrolytes ( NaCl and Other Chlorides too)
Concept of Diffusion
Diffusion is movement of particle from High Concentration of Salt to Low Concentration
For Example :
when we mix salt and water
Exchange of O2 and CO2 in Lungs in Blood is due to Diffusion
Breathe In - Oxygen && Hamari Nas Bring in De Oxygenated Blood from the Body
Concept of Osmosis
It is a Special Case of Diffusion only in case of Liquids
Hence Diffusion of Liquid is Osmosis
Diffusion is a Generic Term and Osmosis is a Specific Terms
In Osmosis, Water from Higher Concentration moves to Water from Lower Concentration
Here Having a Membrane is a must
Example:
Bloating in fingers when bathes for too much time or when immersed in water
Bloating of Raisins when immersed in water
Movement of Water from Soil to Roots of Plants
Concept of Osmoregulation
Osmoregulation is the process by which organisms regulate water or electrolyte level in the body.
Electrolytic Balance in its body to maintain Homeostasis Balance
Osmoregulation in Animals is carried out by well developed excretory system
In Human Kidney is the Principal Organ to Maintain Water and Electrolyte Balance in the Body
Osmoregulation in Plants is carried out by Vacuoles
Dry / Arid Environment →Store More Water in Vacuoles
Wet Environment→ More Transpiration
Concept of Transpiration
Transpiration of Evaporation of Water from Leaves. Some times also called Evapotranspiration
the process of water passing out from the surface of a plant or leaf
Concept of Homeostasis
the process by which the body reacts to changes in order to keep conditions inside the body, for example temperature; the same
Homeostasis is the response to keep the condition inside the body same
Homeostasis Balance is a Biological Equilibrium State
Examples
When we feel heat we perspire
In Winter We Shiver due to Contraction of muscles for maintaining heat
What is Xylem & Phloems
They are Tissues and NOT Cells
Concept of Steroid
Steroids are medicines that quickly fight Inflamation in body by slowing down the immune system.
There are two main types of Steroids
Cortico Steroids derived from Cortisol Hormone which is produced in Adrenal Gland
Anabolics help in building muscles so they mimic Testtesterone
Why should Gym Goers not take Steroids
Gym Goes generally take Steroids in order to Build Muscles Easily and in a more Flaunting way. These Steroids contain testerone, when given from outside like this steroid, after a specific time the body thinks that it does not need to produce testestorne and the body stops producing it thus leading to a case of Muscle Atrophy
Meaning of Zoonotic
From Animals to Humans
Living Being, Plants & Animals
What is a Living Being ?
G - Growth
R - Reproduce
R - Respire
M - Metabolism
Cells - Animals Cells and Plant Cells
Cell is Fundamental Unit of Life. The Term was coined by Robert Hook in 1665. Human Body is composed of Trillions of Cells. They provide Structure to Body, take in Nutrients from food and converts nutrients into energy
These cells can make copies of themselves. Cells have many parts, each with different functions. Some are called as Organelles. They are specialised structure that perform certain tasks
Structure of Animal Cell
Plasma Membrane
Provides Structure to Cell
Helps in Transportation of Materials in and out of cell (generally by Osmosis)
Nucleus
It is the Brain or Control Centre of the Cell
It also has DNA or Chromosomes
DNA is De Oxy Ribose Nucleic Acid
Liquid in Cell
Inside Nucleus - Nucleoplasm
Outside Nucleus - Cytoplasm
Endoplasmic Reticulum
Provides Skeletal Support to Cells
It helps in distribution of material
Also Helps in Membrane Genesis
There are two types of ER
Smooth ER
Synthesis of Lipids
Rough ER - Contains Ribosomes on the Surface
Ribosomes could be present in free state in Cytoplasm also
Ribosomes
They are called as Protein Factories of the Cell. They Synthesise Protein
Proteins are chain of Amino Acids
Proteins are Essentially Macro Molecules
Proteins that are
Taken from Outside - Essential Proteins
Taken from Inside - Non Essential Proteins
Mitochondria
Power House of Cell
Helps in Synthesising Energy from food that cells can use
Mitochondria also contains some DNA and this is known as Mitochondrial DNA. It is different from what is found inside the Nucleus.
DNA is passed from both parents to child. Human have 23 Sets of Chromosomes or total 46 chromosomes. 23 Chromosomes from Mother and 23 from Father
But this Mitochondrial DNA is inherited by Child only from the Mother
Golgi Body
Golgi Bodies are Packaging Bodies.
They store, process and package material to be transported out of the cell
They also help in combining sugar and protein to form GlycoProteins
Lysosomes
They are called as Suicidal Bags of the cell
They contain enzymes which can digest parts of cells
In case of lysosome rupture. The Enzyme can kill the whole cell itself. Hence called Suicidal Bags
Vacuoles
Animal Cells also have Vacuoles. They are smaller in size and many in number wrt to
Structure of Plant Cell
Cell Walls
Cell walls are made up of Cellulose
Cellulose : in the most complex from of Carbohydrate
To Give Structure, Rigidity & Shape to the cell
It permits the cells of Plants Fungi and Bacteria to withstand very dilute external media from Bursting
Fission offsprings are born using a single parent, the DNA Splits or duplicates and then eventually the cell fissions to form two Daughter Cells.
These 2 daughter cells are exact copy of the parent
Eukaryotes - Human Body Cell
Types of Cells in a Human Body
Human Body has two types of cells
Sex Cells → They present in Sexual Organs
Somatic Cells → Every Cell which is not a Sex Cell is a Somatic Cells
Difference Between Mitosis and Meiosis
Mitosis
Meiosis
When Somatic Cells Multiply it is called as Mitosis. It is needed for a Normal Growth
Formation of
Eggs in Women
Sperm in Men
is called as Meiosis
It is cell division for normal growth and development
It Happens during formation of Egg Cells or Sperm Cells. They are also called Gametes
The Number of Chromosomes in Mitosis in Daughter Cell Remains Same
The Number of Chromosomes in Meiosis Reduces to Half
From Unicellular to Multicellular - Including Meiosis and Mitosis
Until Formation of Zygote → Meiosis
From Zygote to Foetus → Mitosis
Prokaryotes - Bacteria
Structure of Bacteria
Bacteria has been derived from a Greek word which means “Rod”
Outer Covering of Bacteria has three Layers ( In Sequence from Outside to Inside it is)
Part 1 : Cell Capsule
To Protect the Bacteria from Harsh Condition and provides it protection mechanism to survive in harsh conditions
Part 2 : Cell Wall
Made up of Unique Combination of Peptidoglycan (Combination of Sugar and Protein)
Part 3 : Cell Membrane
Part 4 : Flagellum: Helps in Movement
Part 5 : Pilus: Hair Like Structure in Bacteria which sticks to the host and transfers the genetic material causing disease
Part 6 : DNA is Scattered in the Cytoplasm
Part 7 : Plasmids
Some DNA Ends Could Join, looking in a circular shape called Circular DNA called Plasmid
DNA whose ends are joined are called as Plasmids
Bacteria does not have Mitochondria
Types of Bacteria on the Basis of Shape Are

What Are AntiBiotics ?
They are chemicals which help to kill bacteria
First Anti Biotic Developed was by Alexander Fleming called Penicillin
Causes of Anti Biotic Resistance
Bacteria Develop Resistance Against Medicines Meant to kill them. Bacterias Evolve Naturally and in due to course of time they become resistant to AntiBiotics but human actions is increasing the rate of this resistance
More the Bacteria is exposed to AntiBiotics, More they will evolve and become resistant
Causes of Anti-Biotic Resistance
Over Prescription by Doctors
Not finishing the entire course
Use of Antibiotics in Fish Farming and Livestock like Chicken
Nexus Between Pharma Companies and Doctors to Prescribe AntiBiotics
Affluents from Pharma Companies if not treated can lead to Antibiotics Resistance
Chola Chaap Doctors are called as Quacks. Giving Medicine without Knowledge
Poor Health and Hygiene Conditions
Over the Counter Sale of Antibiotics without the Prescription of Doctors
New Inventions in Antibiotics has slowed down as Pharma companies believe that return on investments will be less
FDC : Fix Dose Combination (Combining Two Drugs Together Like)
This is being misused by pharma companies for brandin and selling
Example : Cheston Cold etc
GM Crops can sometimes be reasons like BT Brinjal can be cause of Anti Biotic Resistance
Use of Sanitisers and Disinfectants is also becoming a cause of Anti Biotic Resistance
Example of Anti Biotics Resistance
Klebsiella Penumonia is a major cause of Hospital Acquired Infection. It infects the blood stream and it also infects new borns. Carbapenum is an Anti Biotic used to treat this Pneumonia, but this bacteria has now become resistant to Carbapenum. Hence Collestin is now the last resort
