Ans: See Fig. 2.26, below: 2. List the different nutritional categories of bacteria and protoctists. Ans: Four nutritional categories of Bacteria and Protoctists:
Q. 3. Draw the labelled diagrams to show binary fission in bacteria. Ans: See Fig. Fig. 2.27. Binary Fission in Bacteria. 4. How does amoeba normally reproduce? Draw diagrams to represent the process. Ans: Reproduction in Amoeba: It repro-duces by binary fission normally. A cell divides into two daughter cells. Fig. 2.28. Asexual Reproduction in Amoeba 5. Draw a labelled diagram of Euglena. Ans: See the figure. Fig. 2.29. Euglena. 6. What are the common features of diatoms which justify their inclusion in protoctists? Ans: (i) Diatoms are eukaryotic and unicellular organisms. (ii) These occur in fresh water, marine water and soil. (iii) Diatoms have nucleus and chloroplasts. (iv) They have membrane bound cell organelles. 7. Write a paragraph on economic importance of the protoctists? Ans. Economic importance of the protoctists: (i) Some protozoan protists cause diseases in man, e.g., Plasmodium causes malaria. Entamoeba histolytica causes amoebic dysentery in man. (ii) Diatoms form phytoplankton of the oceans which are producers. (iii) Diatoms are used as food by aquatic animals. (iv) Diatoms form diatomaceous earth. 8. List any three characteristics of fungi. Ans: Three characteristics of fungi: (i) Plant body made up of hyphae which may be septate or aseptate. (ii) All fungi are eukaryotic. (iii) All fungi are heterotrophs. 9. What are mycorrhizae? Ans: Mycorrhizae: It is symbiotic association of fungus with the roots of higher plants. There are two types of mycorrhizae-endomycorrhizae growing within the root surface and ectomycorrhizae growing around the root surface. The epiphytic orchid roots are related with mycorrhizae. The fungus helps in the absorption of water, nitrogen and other minerals from the soil. Fig. 2.30. Showing Pinus roots bearing (A) Mycorrhizae, (B) Coralloid type of mycorrhizal root, (C) Tuberous mycorrhizae bearing root. 10. Name three harmful fungi mentioning their harmful effects. Ans: Three Harmful Fungi: (a) Rhizopus: It spoils the breads. Fig. 2.31. Rhizopus spoiling bread. (b) Penicillium: It spoils the leather goods. Fig. 2.32. Penicillium spoiling leather goods. (c) Puccinia graminis tritici: It causes black rust of smut. It decrease crop yield. Fig. 2.33. Life cycle of Puccinia graminis. 11. Write a note on beneficial fungi. Ans: Beneficial Fungi: (i) Some fungi are used as food, e.g., Agaricus campestres. (ii) Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) is used in making bread. (iii) Aspergillus niger is used in making alcohol. (iv) Penicillium camembertii is used in making cheese. (v) Fungi also Produce amylase and zymase enzymes. (vi) Fungi used in the formation of antibio-tics. Penicillin is extracted from Peni-cillium notatum and P. chrysogenum. (vii) Fungi are used in research e.g., Neurospora crassa. 12.
