Practice Questions
| Number | Name | Type | Difficulty | Marks | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1. | Reproduction and continuity of life | Other | easy | 1 m. | A multiple choice question which explains how reproduction prevents the disappearance of life and ensures the continuation of species across generations. |
| 2. | Meaning and importance of reproduction | Other | easy | 2 m. | This descriptive based long answer type question describes the definition of reproduction and why it is essential for survival, population balance, variations, and evolution. |
| 3. | Genetic material: Genes, DNA, and chromosomes | Other | easy | 3 m. | This exercise explains what genes are, where they are located, their functions, and how they control traits and heredity. |
| 4. | Variations and their role in adaptation | Other | easy | 2 m. | A true or false exercise describes how variations arise through mixing or mutation and how they help organisms survive in different environments. |
| 5. | Types of reproduction | Other | medium | 4 m. | This exercise introduces the two major modes of reproduction: asexual and sexual reproduction. |
| 6. | Asexual reproduction and its methods | Other | hard | 5 m. | This question explains characteristics of asexual reproduction and describes binary fission, budding, fragmentation, spore formation, regeneration, and vegetative propagation. |
| 7. | Vegetative propagation | Other | medium | 1 m. | A multiple select question describes specific type of asexual reproduction especially Vegetative propagation and its examples. |
| 8. | Advantages and disadvantages of asexual reproduction | Other | medium | 6 m. | This question covers the benefits and drawbacks of reproducing without gametes, including rapid multiplication and lack of genetic variation. |
| 9. | Sexual reproduction and formation of gametes | Other | medium | 3 m. | This question explains how two parents contribute gametes, fertilisation occurs, and genetic variations arise. |
| 10. | Reproduction in flowering plants | Other | hard | 5 m. | This question explains flower parts, types of flowers, pollination, fertilisation, seed formation, fruit formation, seed dispersal, and germination. |
| 11. | Reproduction in animals | Other | hard | 2 m. | This statement based question covers male and female gametes, fertilisation, zygote formation, internal vs external fertilisation, and development. |
| 12. | Viviparous and oviparous animals | Other | hard | 2 m. | This question explains differences between giving birth to young ones and laying eggs, including reasons mammals do not lay eggs. |
| 13. | Role of placenta in mammals | Other | hard | 1 m. | Assertion and reasoning type of exercise describes the structure and function of the placenta and how it supports protected internal development. |
