List of Important pH values
Definition of pH scale: The unit for measuring the level of acid or
alkali in a substance is called PH. And the one by which it is
measured is called PH scale.
Hydrogen molecules determine the acidic and basic nature of a
substance. If a liquid or object has a pH of 1 or 2, it is acidic, and if it
has a pH of 13 or 14 , it is alkaline. If the PH is 7 then it is neutral .
1.
PH is a type of unit that shows the acidity or alkalinity of
any solution .
2. The acidity, basicity or neutrality of a solution can be seen
from the pH value.
3. It can be easily measured as the positive, negative
property of the number of hydrogen ions present in a
solution .
PH Full Form: “ Potential of Hydrogen” or “Power of Hydrogen”
The strength of hydrogen in any solution is called pH.

Concave and Convex Mirrors
What are Mirrors?
A mirror is a reflective surface that reflects light and creates a real or
imaginary image.
When an object is placed in front of a mirror, the mirror reflects the
image of the same object. The incident rays are coming from the
object, and the reflected rays are what produce the image. The
classification of the images as real or virtual depends on where the
light rays intersect.
The two types of mirrors that are most commonly used are:
❖ Spherical Mirrors, and
❖ Plane Mirrors
Plane Mirrors
The most typical mirrors are flat and are referred to as “plane
mirrors.” A fine layer of silver nitrate or aluminum is deposited
behind a flat piece of glass to construct plane mirrors.
When a light beam strikes a plane mirror, the light ray is reflected in
such a way that it makes an equal angle with the incident ray
that is, the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence.
Spherical Mirrors
The curved surface we see of a shining spoon can be considered a curved
mirror. The most widely used type of curved mirror is the spherical mirror.
Important Terms used in Spherical Mirrors :
● Pole: The midpoint or the center point of the spherical mirror. It is
represented by capital P. All the measurements are made from it only.
● Aperture: An aperture of a mirror is a point from which the reflection of light
actually takes place or happens. It also gives an idea about the size of the
mirror.
● Principal axis: An imaginary line that passes through the optical center and
from the center of curvature of a spherical mirror. All the measurements are
based on this line.
● Centre of Curvature: The point in the center of the mirror surface that passes
through the curve of the mirror and has the same tangent and curvature at
that point. It is represented by the capital letter C.
● Radius of Curvature: It is considered as the linear distance between the pole
and the center of curvature. It is represented by the capital letter R,
● Principal Focus: Principal Focus can be called the Focal Point also. It is
present on the axis of a mirror where the rays of light parallel to the principal
axis converge or appear to converge or diverge after reflection.
● Focus: It is any given point on the principal axis where light rays parallel to
the principal axis will converge or appear to converge after getting reflected
from the mirror.
Types of Spherical Mirrors
Spherical Mirrors are categorized into two types:
● Concave Mirrors
● Convex Mirrors
Concave Mirror
If a hollow sphere is cut into some parts and the outer surface of the cut
part is painted, then it turns out to be a mirror with its inner surface as the
reflecting surface. This makes a concave mirror.
Applications of Concave Mirrors:
●
●
●
●
●
Used in shaving mirrors
The concave mirror used in the ophthalmoscope
Uses of the concave mirrors in astronomical telescopes:

Convex Mirror:
If the cut part of the hollow sphere is painted from the inside, then its outer
surface becomes the reflecting surface. This mirror is known as a convex
mirror. A spherical mirror having its reflecting surface curved outwards is
known to be a convex mirror.
Application of Convex Mirror:

BLOOD
Blood Facts:
• Blood is a fluid connective tissue.
• The quantity of blood in the human body is 7% of the total weight.
• pH value of blood is 7.4.
• There is an average of 5-6 liters of blood in the human body.
• Female contains half a liter of bloodless in comparison to male.
• It also fights infection and regulates temperature.
Blood cells are produced in BONE MARROW
Components of Blood
1. Plasma
2. Red blood cells
3. White blood cells
4. Platelets
PLASMA
It contains 92 percent water, constitutes 55 percent of blood volume.
FUNCTION:
• maintaining a satisfactory blood pressure
• volume to supplying critical proteins for blood clotting and immunity.
• medium for the exchange of vital minerals such as sodium and potassium
• helps to maintain a proper pH (acid-base) balance in the body, which is
critical to cell function.
RED BLOOD CELLS
•Red blood cells are disc-shaped cells containing hemoglobin,
• hemoglobin (haem=iron-containing)
•Haemoglobin enables the cells to pick up and deliver oxygen to all parts of
the body, then pick up carbon dioxide and remove it from tissues.
•Its life span is from 20 days to 120 days and is then broken down into
pigments called bilirubin and biliverdin in the liver.
•Its destruction takes place in the liver & spleen. Therefore, the liver is
called the grave of RBC.
•they are made in the bone marrow,
•they have no nucleus,
•N.B. oxyhemoglobin =oxygen rich hemoglobin,
•deoxyhaemoglobin=low oxygen hemoglobin
WHITE BLOOD CELLS
•White blood cells also called leukocytes
•White cells are the body’s primary defense against infection.
•They can move out of the bloodstream and reach tissues to fight infection.
•They are essential for good health.
•Its life span is from 1 to 2 days.
•White blood cells have nuclei and are also made in the bone marrow.
PLATELETS
Platelets are the cells that circulate within our blood and bind together
when they recognize damaged blood vessels.

About
Hematoma
A collection of blood inside the body tissues. Internal bleeding
often causes a hematoma.
Leukemia
A form of blood cancer, in which white blood cells multiply
abnormally and circulate through the blood. The excessive
large numbers of white cells deposit in the body’s tissues,
causing damage
Multiple
myeloma
A form of blood cancer of plasma cells similar to leukemia.
Anemia, kidney failure, and high blood calcium levels are
common in multiple myeloma.
Lymphoma
A form of blood cancer, in which white blood cells multiply
abnormally inside lymph nodes and other tissues. The
enlarging tissues, and disruption of blood’s functions, can
eventually cause organ failure.
Anemia
An abnormally low number of red blood cells in the blood.
Fatigue and breathlessness can result, although anemia often
causes no noticeable symptoms.
Hemochrom A disorder causing excessive levels of iron in the blood. The
atosis
iron deposits in the liver, pancreas, and other organs, causing
liver problems and diabetes.
Sickle cell
disease
A genetic condition in which red blood cells periodically lose
their proper shape (appearing like sickles, rather than discs).
The deformed blood cells deposit in tissues, causing pain and
organ damage.
Bacteremia
Bacterial infection of the blood. Blood infections are serious,
and often require hospitalization and continuous antibiotic
infusion into the veins.
Malaria
Infection of red blood cells by Plasmodium, a parasite
transmitted by mosquitos. Malaria causes episodic fevers,
chills, and potentially organ damage.
Thrombocyt Abnormally low numbers of platelets in the blood. Severe
openia
thrombocytopenia may lead to bleeding.
Leukopenia Abnormally low numbers of white blood cells in the blood.
Leukopenia can result in difficulty fighting infections.
Hormones
Important Hormones and their Functions:

Pituitary (The
master gland)
Growth
Hormone
Regulates tissue and bone
growth.
ACTH
(AdrenoCorticotrophi
c Hormone)
Controls structure and
functioning of the adrenal
cortex, especially secretions of
gluco-corticoids and sexcorticoids.
FSH (Follicle
Stimulating
Hormone) or
Gametokineti
c Factor
Stimulates spermatogenesis in
testes of male, maturation of
Graafian or ovarian follicles in
ovaries and secretion of
estrogen in females.
TSH (Thyroid
Stimulating
Hormone)
Stimulates thyroid to make
thyroxine.
Oxytocin
(Pitocin)
Helps the uterus to contract
during the childbirth.
Thyroid
Adrenal
Pancreas (islets of
Langerhans)
Ovary
Testis
ADH (Anti
Diuretic
Hormone) or
Vasopressin
or Pitressin
Controls the amount of water
reabsorbed by the kidney
(Osmoregulation).
Thyroxine
Regulates the rate of growth and
metabolism. Production of too
little of this hormone causes
overweight and sluggishness.
Too much of it leads to thinness
and overactivity.
Cortisone
Produced by cortex of this
gland. Aids in the conversion of
proteins to sugar. The adrenal
cortex itself is stimulated by the
pituitary.
Insulin
Regulates sugar metabolism.
Too little insulin leads to a high
sugar level in blood and
weakness- a condition called
diabetes.
Estrogen
Development of secondary
sexual characters such as the
development of breasts in
females.
Testosterone
Development of many masculine
features such as the growth of
moustaches and beard.

Digestive System
Digestive System Parts
The main organs of the digestive system are:
1. Mouth
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
Oesophagus or Food Pipe
Stomach
Small Intestine
Large Intestine
Liver
Gallbladder
Mouth
● Food is ingested through the mouth.
● The buccal cavity or mouth consists of the tongue, teeth, and salivary
glands.
● For Example:- Digestion of carbohydrate or starch begins in the mouth
itself.
● But the digestion of food remains incomplete in the mouth.
● The dental formula of milk teeth is 2120/2120=10.
● It means 4 incisors, 2 canines, 4 premolars and 0 molars on each side of
each jaw.
● The dental formula of milk teeth is 2123/2123=16.
● It means 4 incisors, 2 canines, 4 premolars and 6 molars on each side of
each jaw.
Oesophagus (Food Pipe)
● The slightly digested food goes to the stomach through the oesophagus.
● With the help of peristaltic movement, food is pushed inside the stomach.
● The epiglottis prevents the food from entering the windpipe. It is a small
flap that covers the windpipe.
Stomach
● In the stomach, food pieces further break into smaller pieces and form a
semi-solid paste.
● Glands that are present in the walls of the stomach secrete gastric juice
and contain three substances hydrochloric acid, enzyme pepsin and
mucus.
● The protein digestion begins in the stomach only with the help of the
pepsin enzyme.
Small Intestine
● The small intestine is a long, thin tube, about 1 inch in diameter and about
20 feet long.
● With the help of ‘sphincter muscle’ food from the stomach releases in
small amounts into the small intestine.
● Small intestine is the organ of the human body where complete digestion
of food like carbohydrates, proteins, and fats takes place.
Large Intestine
● The large intestine is a long, thick tube about 2.5 inches in diameter and
about 5 feet long.
● A part of the food that cannot be digested by our body or cannot be
absorbed by the small intestine passes into the large intestine.
● The wall of the intestine absorbs most of the water from the food and
makes it solid.
● The rectum is the last part of the large intestine where this solid food for
some time is stored and egested from our body through the anus as
faeces or stool.
Pancreas, Liver and Gallbladder
Pancreas
● It is known for blood sugar regulatory function with the production of
insulin
● Digestive enzymes are secreted by the pancreas, released into the small
intestine and help in the digestion of fats, proteins and carbohydrates.
Beta Cells
● Beta Cells are a type of cell found in the pancreatic islets of the pancreas.
● The primary function of a beta cell is to store and release insulin.
● Insulin is a hormone that brings about effects that decrease blood glucose
concentration.
● Beta cells can respond quickly to spikes in blood glucose concentrations
by secreting some of their stored insulin while simultaneously producing
more insulin.
Liver
● The liver produces bile juice which secretes enzymes and helps in the
digestion of fat.
● A human liver normally weighs 1.44–1.66 kg (3.2–3.7 lb), and a width of
about 15 cm.
● The liver is both the heaviest internal organ and the largest gland in the
human body.
● Its other roles in metabolism include the regulation of glycogen storage,
decomposition of red blood cells and the production of hormones.
Gallbladder
● When fatty food enters the small intestine, the gallbladder contracts and
releases bile which is stored in it.
Bile Juice
● There are no enzymes present in bile juice.
● Bile tends to be alkali on average.
● The pH of the common duct bile (7.50 to 8.05) is higher than that of the
corresponding gallbladder bile (6.80 to 7.65).
● The composition of gallbladder bile is 97% water,0.2% bilirubin, 0.51%
fats (cholesterol, fatty acids, and lecithin), 0.7% bile salts, and 200 meq/l
inorganic salts.

Human Brain
●
●
●
●
●
Brain is the central organ of the human nervous system.
It is located in the head and protected within the skull.
It plays a role in every major body system.
It is the most complex organ in a vertebrate’s body.
It consists of the Cerebrum (Fore Brain), the Brain-stem and the
Cerebellum.
Layers of meninges:
There are three layers of meninges:
1. Dura mater (closest to the bone),
2. Arachnoid loosely around the brain,
3. Pia mater is closely attached to the brain and spinal cord
surface.
Parts of Human Brain:
Brain is divided in main three parts:
1. Fore Brain
2. Mid Brain
3. Hind Brain
1. Fore Brain:
The forebrain is the largest brain division. It includes the Thalamus,
Hypothalamus and Cerebrum. The olfactory and optic cranial nerves are
found in the forebrain. Three main part of Fore Brain are:
1) Thalamus,
2) Hypothalamus,
3) Cerebrum
A) Thalamus:
Out of 5 sense organs, three – Nose, Tongue and Skin sensory organs
are controlled by the Thalamus of the fore Brain.
● Nose: Sense of smelling is controlled by — Olfactory
Nerve.
● Tongue: To detect taste — Gustatory Receptor Nerve.
● Skin: Largest Sensory Organ of human body.
B) Hypothalamus:
Following Works are done by the Hypothalamus of Human Brain:
●
●
●
●
●
Sleep
Hunger
ThirstBehaviour
Emotions & Feelings – Anger, Love etc.
Control of Body Temperature: That’s why it is called
Thermometer of the Human body.
C) Cerebrum:
It is the largest part of the Human Brain. Approximate 2/3 part of Human
Brain mass covered by it. It is also called Intelligence mind.
Working of Cerebrum:
● Thinking,
● Reasoning & Verbal,
● Calculations & Mathematics,
● Imagination.
2. MidBrain:
Out of 5 sense organs, functions of Two Organs à Ear (कान) and Eye (आ
ँ ख)
sensory organs are controlled by this. The midbrain helps control eye
movement and processes visual and auditory information.
3. HindBrain:
It is the lower part of the brainstem that bridges the brain with the spinal
cord. It comprise mainly three parts:
1) Pons/Pons Varolii,
2) Medulla-Oblongata,
3) Cerebellum.
A) Pons-Varolii/Pons :
It controls the respiratory System of Human Body. Amount of Oxygen
required in the human body is decided by Pons-Varolii.
B) Medulla- Oblongata:
Following reactions of human body are controlled by Medulla-oblongata of
hind brain:
Vital Reaction : Blood Circulation, Breathing (Respiration), Heartbeat ,
Digestion , Excretion.
Accessory Reaction : Hiccups , Sneezing , Brap , Salivation , Vomiting ,
Snoring), Yawn , Blinking of eyes.
C) Cerebellum:
The cerebellum is also called Little Brain &Tree of Life (जीवन का पे ड़), because
it provides balance to body. It receives information from the sensory
systems, the spinal cord, and other parts of the brain and then regulates
motor movements.
Working of Cerebellum:
The cerebellum coordinates voluntary movements such as: Body posture,
Body Balancing , Walking, Speaking), Learning and Muscular Movement.
After Drinking of Alcohol, this part of brain is effected, Hence Drinking and
Driving is Prohibited.

Newton's Laws of Motion
First Law of Motion
● The first law of motion is stated as “An object remains in a state of rest or of
uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change that state by an
applied force.”
● All objects resist a change in their state of motion. In a qualitative way, the
tendency of undisturbed objects to stay at rest or to keep moving with the
same velocity is called inertia.This is why, the first law of motion is also
known as the law of inertia.
● Inertia is the natural tendency of an object to resist a change in its state of
motion or of rest. The mass of an object is a measure of its inertia. Its SI unit
is kilogram.
Inertia:
The inherent property of a body to resist any change in its state of rest or the
state of uniform motion, unless it is influenced upon by an external
unbalanced force, is known as inertia.
Types of Inertia
1. Inertia of rest
● The resistance of a body to change its state of rest is called inertia of rest.
● Example: When you vigorously shake the branches of a tree, some of the
leaves and fruits are detached and they fall down.
2. Inertia of direction
● The resistance of a body to change its direction of motion is called inertia
of direction.
● Example: When you make a sharp turn while driving a car, you tend to
lean sideways.
3. Inertia of motion
● The resistance of a body to change its state of motion is called inertia of
motion.
● Example: An athlete runs some distance before jumping. Because, this will
help him jump longer and higher.
Second Law of Motion
● The second law of motion states that the rate of change of momentum of
an object is proportional to the applied unbalanced force in the direction of
force.
● The second law of motion gives a method to measure the force acting on
an object as a product of its mass and accelerations. F = ma
● The momentum, p of an object is defined as the product of its mass, m and
velocity, v. That is p=mv
Third Law of Motion
● The third law of motion states: “To every action, there is an equal and
opposite reaction and they act on two different bodies.”
Examples
● Real time example is when a gun is fired it exerts a forward force on the
bullet. The bullet exerts an equal and opposite force on the gun. This results
in the recoil of the gun. Since the gun has a much greater mass than the
bullet, the acceleration of the gun is much less than the acceleration of the
bullet.
● Third law of motion is another example is when a sailor jumps out of a rowing
boat. As the sailor jumps forward, the force on the boat moves it backwards.
● When birds fly, they push the air downwards with their wings (Action) and
the air pushes the bird upwards (Reaction).
● Motion of rocket.

Waves Types & Properties
Definition:
Waves can be defined as the disturbance or oscillation in a medium or a field
(electric or magnetic field used in Electromagnetic waves) from its mean
position, which carries energy from one point to another without displacing it
from its original position.
Sl. No.
Types of Waves
Definition
1.
Mechanical Waves
Propagate only in the material medium. Can’t
travel into the vacuum.
2.
Electromagnetic
Waves
EM waves are caused by an oscillating
electric and magnetic field. Unlike
mechanical, they can propagate without a
medium
3.
Matter Waves
They are caused by the motion of matter and
subatomic particles like electrons and
photons.

1.
Standing Wave
This wave does not propagate but oscillates
in a particular space with time
2.
Progressive Wave
The waves which propagate in a media are
called Progressive waves. The crest and
trough of a progressive wave does move in
space.
The progressive waves can be classified into
two types:
1. Longitudinal Waves
2. Transverse Waves
Types of Progressive Waves:
Sl. No.
Types of Waves
Definition
1.
Longitudinal
Waves
The waves in which the particle of the
medium vibrates parallel to the direction of
its propagation. Sound waves are the best
example of longitudinal waves
2.
Transverse Waves
The waves in which particle of the medium
vibrates perpendicular to the direction of its
propagation. Water ripple is an example of a
transverse wave in which water molecules
vibrate perpendicular to the surface of the
water while the wave propagates along the
surface.

Phylum
Protochordata
● The protochordate animals
are bilaterally symmetrical
and triploblastic.
● They have a coelom.
● A new body feature that is
seen in these animals is the
presence of notochord at
some stage in their life cycle.
Herdmania,
Balanoglossus.
● Due to this very presence of a
notochord, they are called as
chordates.
● However, it is sometimes
rudimentary.

animals.
Phylum Vertebrata
● These are the advanced group
of animals, showing some
really advanced features of a
proper digestive system,

● There is a complex
differentiation of body tissues
and organs.
● These animals have a true
vertebral column with an
internal skeleton.
All chordates have the following
features:
● Notochord
● Dorsal Nerve Cord
● Post-anal tail
● Pharyngeal slits

Types of Plant Tissues
Tissue type
Structure
Meristematic Tissue
● Merismatic tissues consist of a group of
cells that have the ability to divide.
● These tissues are small, cuboidal, densely
packed cells which keep dividing to form
new cells.
● These tissues are capable of stretching,
enlarging and differentiating into other
types of tissues as they mature.
● Meristematic tissues give rise to
permanent tissues.
Merismatic tissues can be of three types
depending on the region where they are
present:
● Apical meristems
● lateral meristems
● intercalary meristems
Permanent Tissue
● Permanent tissues are derived from the
merismatic tissues and have lost their
ability to divide.
● They have attained their mature form.
●
They are further classified into two types:
● Simple permanent tissues
● complex permanent tissues

Types of Simple Permanent tissues:
Types
Parenchyma
Collenchyma
Sclerenchyma
About it
● These tissues are found in the soft parts of a
plant such as the roots, stems, leaves, and
flowers.
● The cells of this tissue are loosely packed and
contain large intercellular spaces between them.
● Each cell has a vacuole at the center.
● The functions of parenchyma tissues are storage,
photosynthesis, and to help the plant float on
water.
● Collenchyma are similar to parenchyma cells with
thicker cell walls.
● They are meant to provide mechanical support to
the plant structure in parts such as petiole of the
leaf.
● The cells of this tissue are dead.
● They are rigid, contain thick and lignified
secondary walls.
● Their main function is to provide strength and
support to parts of the plant.
Complex Permanent Tissue:
● Unlike simple permanent cells which look the same and are made
up of one type of cells, complex permanent tissues are made up
of more than one type of cells.
● These different types of cells coordinate to perform a function.
● Xylem and Phloem are complex permanent tissues and are found
in the vascular bundles in the plants.
Parts Of Plants:
The main parts of a plant include:
●
●
●
●
●
Stem
Leaves
Seeds
Flowers
Root
Root:
● The growing root tip is protected by a root cap.
● Within the root tip, cells differentiate, actively divide, and increase in length,
depending on in which zone the cells are located.
● Dividing cells make up the zone of cell division in a germinating plant.
● The newly-forming root increases in size in the zone of elongation.
● Differentiating cells make up the zone of cell maturation.
Types of Root:
Root tips ultimately develop into two main types of root systems:
● tap roots
● fibrous roots
Root type
Definition
Tap roots
A taproot is a single, large
primary root that grows straight
down from the stem of a plant.
Fibrous roots
Fibrous roots are smaller,
secondary roots that spread out
in all directions from the stem.
