Question: 17
What are heat-shock proteins?
Answer: 17
17-40
Most plants have adopted to survive in heat stress as the plants of temperate regions face the stress of 40°C and above temperature.The cells of these plants synthesize large quantities of special proteins called heat shock proteins.These proteins embrace enzymes and other proteins thus help to prevent denaturation.
Question: 18
Give adaptation of marine fish for its survival in cold environment.
Answer: 18
18-40
These fishes have a thick layer of insulting fat called blubber, which prevent excess heat loss from the body.
Question: 19
What are heterotherms?Give example.
Answer: 19
19-40
These are the animals that are capable of varying degrees of endothermic heat production but generally do not regulate their body temperature within a narrow range.For example bats and humming birds.
Question: 20
Write two types of synthesis functions of liver and effects on homeostasis.
Answer: 20
20-40
Synthesis function of liver include.
  1. Synthesis of urea, ammonia and uric acid. It assists kidney for the removal of wastes.
  2. Synthesis of plasma proteins like proteins like prothrombin and fibrinogen. it maintains osmotic balance of blood and help in blood clotting.
Question: 21
Define the process of painting with one example.
Answer: 21
21-40
It is structural adaptation for heat regulation in dogs.Panting is evaporative cooling in the respiratory tract for temperature regulation.
Question: 22
Name two hormones involved in nephron.
Answer: 22
22-40
Anti diuretic hormone and Aldosterone are involved in nephron function.
Question: 23
Write structural adaptation for regulation of heat exchange between animals and environment.
Answer: 23
