Important Points To Remember:

Nervous co-ordination mainly comprises on highly specialized cells, called neurons.
All receptors are transducers that convert signals from one form to another form.
Schwan cells produce myelin in peripheral nervous system (PNS).
Oligodendrocytes produce myelin in central nervous system (CNS).
Nerve impulse is an electrical signal that depends on the flow of ions across the membrane of a neuron.
The voltage measured across the plasma membrane is called membrane potential and it is typically in the range from -50mv to -100mv in an animal cell.
Action potential is a sudden reversal of the electrical charge across the membrane, triggered by a temporary, localized increase in its permeability to sodium.
Depolarization makes the membrane potential less negative.
Hyperpolarization makes the membrane potential more negative.
The level of depolarization needed to produce an action potential is called threshold potential.
Velocity of conduction is greater if the diameter of the axon is larger or if the axon is myelinated.
Synapse is junction that control communication between a neuron and another cell.
The movement of impulse across the synapse is called a synaptic transmission.
Electrical synapse involves direct cytoplasmic connections formed by gap junctions between the presynaptic neuron and postsynaptic neurons.
Biogenic amines are neurotransmitters derived from amino acids most commonly function as transmitters within the CNS.
Human nervous system consists of central nervous system and peripheral nervous system.
Central nervous system is integrating portion of the nervous system.
CNS stands for central nervous system.

The study of human bones is called osteology.
Bone has distinct regions called epiphysis, diaphysis and metaphysis and covered by different layers.
Bones and cartilage are composed of numerous cells.
Different types of cartilages are located in skeleton and plays vital role in protecting joints.
Human skeleton is formed by numerous bones and has two major divisions called axial and appendicular skeleton which include separate bones.
Bones are joined to form different joints.
The major groups of joints are called fibrous, synovial and cartilaginous joints.
The common disorders of the skeletal system are disc slip, spondylosis, sciatica, and arthritis.
Repair of several types of bone fracture takes place m different steps in sequence i.e., hematoma formation, internal and external callus formation, replacement of cartilage by trabecular bone and remodeling.
First-aid treatment is also used for the injuries in joints like dislocation and sprain.
There are three types of muscles in the body that perform movement.
Skeletal muscles are present in organs that work voluntarily.
Non-skeletal muscles are present in organs that work in involuntary organs.
Cardiac muscles are present in heart.
Skeletal muscle fiber contains numerous myofibril.
Myofibril contain two kinds of protein filaments namely actin and myosin.
Actin and myosin filaments are cross linked and perform muscles contraction.

Important Points To Remember:

Homeostasis is process by which biological systems maintain stability while adjusting to the changing conditions.
Feedback, in biology, is a response within a system.
There are two types of feedback mechanisms that counter act upon each other called positive and negative feedback.
Freshwater and marine water animals adjust their osmotic internal environment according to the changing external environment primarily by excretion.
Animals produce different types of excretory waste to regulate their internal homeostatic environment.
Urinary system is not only used for removing waste from the body, but also maintains the acid base balance of the body.
Urinary system formed by mainly a pair of kidneys and associated organs.
Kidney performs different functions including ultra filtration, selective reabsorption and counter current mechanism.
Diseases of urinary tract are caused by bacteria and viruses that invade or enters through anus or urethral opening and by other means.
Urine contains many dissolved mineral and salts that form different compounds.
Kidney failure is treated by are hemodialysis, continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), peritoneal dialysis and in severe case kidney transplant.
Thermoregulation is a homeostatic mechanism that keeps the body temperature of an organism up to suitable limits independent of external environmental temperature.
Thermoregulation is all about keeping the stability of thermal energy expense in the body.
Humans are endotherms means they maintain their body temperature at suitable limit that is 370C.
Humans have adapted some behavioral and physiological strategies to adjust thermogenesis in cold and hot environment.
ADH stands for anti-diuretic hormone.
BUN stands for Blood nitrogen test.
CRRT stands for Continuous renal replacement theraoy.
DCT stands for Distal convoluted tubule.

CELL CYCLE
Botany And Zoology
For HSC Part 2 (XII) Science Group

Q.5: Define Meiosis. Explain the various stages of Prophase -I of meiosis.
Ans: MEIOSIS:
Meiosis is a cell division in which one cell divides into four cells and the number of the chromosomes is reduced to half. Meiosis occurs in diploid cells during gametogenesis. Meiosis consists of two successive divisions, Division I and Division II.
Division I is reduction division, during which the chromosomes number (2n) in both daughter cells is reduced to half (n).
Division II is simple mitotic in nature.
Each division passes through four phases, as:

1^st Meiotic Division

Prophase I
Metaphase I
Anaphase I
Telophase I

2^nd Meiotic Division

Prophase II
Metaphase II
Anaphase II
Telophase II

PROPHASE I:
Prophase of first meiotic division is longer in duration and complicated. It passes through five sub-stages.

Leptotene
Zygotene
Pachytene
Diplotene
Diakinesis

Leptotene = (Slender):

This is the first stage of meiosis.
The chromatin material condenses to from thread like structures called chromosomes.
Before meiosis starts, the chromosomes become duplicated which is DNA replication, but the two chromosomes are so close that they look like a thread.
The identical pairs, Maternal and Paternal chromosomes remain unevenly distributed.
The centrioles move to the opposite poles.

Zygotene = (Joining):

The chromosomes shorten and thicken.
The homologous (maternal and paternal) chromosomes attracts each other and start pairing, the process is called SYNAPSIS.
The pairing is very exact and is point to point and gene to gene.
The two synapped chromosomes are called BIVALENTS.

Pachytene = (Thick):

After pairing, the chromosomes become thick and short.
The homologous chromosomes twine around each other and each starts splitting into two sister chromatids by a longitudinal splitting except in the centromere region.
Due to this splitting, the bivalent becomes tetravalent (with four chromatids).

Diplotene = (Double):

The synaptic force of attraction between each bivalent consisting of four chromatids decrease.
The homologous chromosomes start repelling each other but mostly uncoiled i.e. overlapping areas remain contact in one or more points.
This point of contact is called chiasma (Plural: Chiasmata).
The overlapping occurs at non-sister chromatids.
At chiasmata the chromatids breaks. This breakage is accompanied by reunion in such a way that corresponding fragments are interchanged between the two non-homologous chromosomes, this physical change is called crossing over.
Crossing over is significant in heredity.

Diakinesis = (Through movement):

Diakinesis is characterized by the disappearing of the nuclear membrane, nucleolus and completion of spindle apparatus.
The separation of bivalent is completed by the process called terminalization.
The movement of the chiasmata from the centromere towards the ends of the chromosome arms take place like a zipper.
At the end of stage, the two chromatids held together at their ends and the bivalent become more thickened, contracted and prominently visible.
