Cytology (cell, its structure and functions) The structural and functional unit of all the organisms or living beings is called cell and the shape and size of the cell are different. The shape and size of the cells are not only differen ¢ for various organisms but the cells ate of the different organs. Also unicellular The cell was firstly invented by i ienti: Hook in Y an English Scientist Robert 1665 and he asserted that cell has boon meng from a life saving substance.

To synthesise rRNA in the nucleolus. 2. To assist in the synthesis of rRNA and in transportation of it from nucleolus to another place. 3. To collect ribosome inside the nucleolus. Nuclear network : The main body of the nucleolus is like a network structure in which thick particles are found which is called chromatin, According to modern Geneticists chromatin is a genetic substance found in the cell and it is basically composed of Histone (a type of protein), DNA (Deoxy ribo Nucleic Acid) and RNA (Ribo Nucleic Acid). In chromatin the main component is DNA which causes the genetic characters in the organism, During cell division chromatin is shrinked (compressed) and divided into various smaller thick and consolidated form, and these are called chromosomes, In the cells of almost all species of various organisms (creatures) nucleus has a definite number of chromosomes. Various organisms and number of chromosomes in their cells Organisms No. of pairs of{Organisms No. of pairs of chromosomes chromosomes Human 23 (= 46) Monkey 21 (= 42) Housefly 6 (= 12) Chimpanzee 24 (= 48) Mosquitoe 3(=6) Horse 32 (= 64) Bee 8 (= 16), 16 (= 32) [Wheat ~ 21 (= 42) Dog 39 (= 78) ‘Onion 8 (= 16) Chromosomes : Chromosomes are the basic constituents of a genetic substance chromatin and in every chromosome there exists a dence jelly like substance called matrix and in it two mutually thin interconnected coiled shapestructureseemsto appear which iscalled chromonemata.Every chromonemata is called chromatid, thus every chromosome is composed of two chromatids. Also two chromatids mutually meet at a point (place) which is called centromere, On chromosomes various genes are located and this gene is a functional unit of DNA, Thus genetic characteristics of the DNA are caused by the gene. The characteristics which transmit from generation to generation is transported by the genes and these genes are carried out by the chromosomes, Thus chromosomes are called the vehicles of the heredity. Structure of DNA and RNA : DNA is a polynucleotide and almost all amount of it is confined in the nucleus of the cell but a very small amount is also present in the mitochondria and green plastids. In 1953 Watson and Crick propounded a comprehensive Double Helix Model. Both stands of this double helix are in the opposite parallel direction and each helix has a diameter of nearly 20A, Thus, the structure of DNA is a double helix.

The r- RNA is nearly 80% of the total RNA. (ii) Transfer RNA (t-RNA) : It brings all types of amino acids on the ribosome where protein is formed. It is 10-15% of the total RNA and itis the smallest among all. It has. two dimensional structure like clove leaf. ie (iii) Messenger RNA (m-RNA): It carries the information of the protein synthesis from DNA of the nucleus to ribosome.

The as in diversity of the blood takes place because of presence of glicoprotei hich is a special type of protein existing i ed antigen, which is a spe: pe of protein existing in RBC and it is called antigen. ‘This antigen is of two types— (i) Antigen A (ii) Antigen B Two English letters A and B are the symbolical representation of two types of antigens. Each and every person's blood possesses certain inherent character which distinguish it from the blood of every other person. On the basis of these characteristics blood has been divided into various groups and the scientist came to understand the groups when they studied blood transfusion. There are four types of blood groups— perature and an osmatic pressure Blood Group Antigen (in RBC) ‘Antibody (In plasma) A only A only b 5 only B salva both A and B absen! o ° absent both aand b Jement (organism) enters en any foreign nism) radivectly orindirectiy some Prot ineous bil i Jraracteristics: of its hibits the speci ae the body fo#™ ‘and its appearance Antigen and Antibody + Whi inside thebody of human beings th compound is produced which ex! ‘ uunds entere own species.

In thy human blood groups there is no agglutination because: ot Me of antibod to the corresponding antigen in any blood group, IF the Blond of a grog of a person is mixed up in the blood of a group of another person is such @ way that corresponding antigens and antibodies are present then REC agglutinats and blood of groups Aand B cannotbe cots | Because inthe process of agglutination RBCsticks to each other and sudden death can takes place. Thus in the blood transfusion a combination of antigen and antibody is accommodated in such a way that there must be no agglutination. In emergency the blood of group O can be donated to any body of any blood group because it lacks antigen but antibody exists and that's wh it is called Universal Donar. Similarly in the blood of group AB there is complete lack of antibody but antigen exists that's why it is called Universal Recipient, Thus normally in the blood transfusion the donor and recipient must belong to the same blood group. In many cases human plasmais utilised for the transfusions, specially to replenish deficiencies in blood proteins, to maintain the blood volumeand for the treatment of shock. The great advantage of such type of transfusion is that plasma from any donor may be used. The plasma can be safely stored up for a longer period and easily transported. The plasma fraction serum albumin has been proved its effectiveness in shock. Blood Group Antigen (in RBC) Antibody (In plasma) A Aand AB AandO B Band AB BandO AB ABonly All groups ° Alll groups O only Rhesus Factor (Rh—factor) : In 1940 Landsteiner and Wiener discovered and detected another type of antigen in the human blood. In fact this antigen was extracted from a monkey namely Rhesus and that's why it (antigen) is called Rh-factor. Thus thereare certain blood 8roupsin which agglutinogen is found during blood transfusion. The occurrence of agglutination takes Place in the red blood cells of many persons which is same as that of found ih he ied blood cells of rhesus monkey.

The same Phenomenon occurs when an Rh- womal becomes Pregnant with an Rh* baby whose inherent Rh factor comes from father. Also during pregnancy some RBC. of the foetus may pass into the mother's blood and cause her body to produce antibodies against the Rh factor. These antibodies can then pass into the foetal blood stream and cause the destruction of red blood cellsand this condition is called crythroblastots i By Hemra: ees SY Boned by CamScanner ionias-net by means of a highly successfy} treatment ang lem: whichcanbersngt Miscellaneous an be cured.

System of Human body () Digestive system of Human beings : i : 1 ae cued ome beings : The human digestive system (A) Alimentary canal : There are various parts of the alimentary canal in the human body— 1. Buccal Cavity : The buccal (mouth) of the human beings is like a fissure which passes through both the jaws and opens in a cavity, called buccal cavity. The uppermost part of the buccal cavity is called palate. In the upper and lower jaws of the buccal cavity two separate sequences of the teeth exist and usually three types of teeth are found in the human beings— thecodont, diphyodont and heterodont. (a) Thecodont : These are the teeth which are embrodily trapped in the bones of the jaw. —_ (©) Diphyodont: These are the teeth which born two times in the whole eee th which are of four types.

There exists various little nodes on the tongue and these nodes are called taste villi, Due to the appearance of these taste villi the taste and the nature of the food like sour, sweet, salt ete are realised. Through the apex part, rear part (the portion near to the throat) and the side part of the tongue, the tastes of the sweet, bitter and soure flavours are detected respectively. The tongue also helps in eating and masticating the food by mixing the saliva in the food stuffs. 2. Oesophagus : This is basically a longer tube which opens in stomach and by the help of which food stuffs proceeds forward and in the wall of it various mucous glands coexist. The secretion of fluid makes the oesophagus oily (smooth) and moist and due to these appearance food stuffs easily move forward. 3. Stomach ; The stomach is a bilobed sac like muscular bag in which meal (food) is temporarily stored and it is nearly 30 cm long. The width of thestomach is decreased or increased according to the quantity of food taken inside the human body. The rear part of the stomach is extremely narrow and it opens in the form of thick hole in the duodenum. In the wall of the stomach various secretion glands exist and these are called gastric glands through which gastric juices are secreted. The gastric ae paceally digestive juices and in these HCI, renin and pepsin like = aes fond nd: Themuscles ofthe wall of the stomach crushes smoothly tanstora ta ee the gastricjuices, consequently the food stus and along wit thee ashe Partial digestion and storation of food ocsus ‘ater, it acid (HC) present in gastricjutse Pee tee absorbed.

Thus small intestine basically has two parts duodenum (25 cm) and ileum (30 cm). In the inner layer of the wall of the ileum finger shaped structures are found which is called Intestinal Villi. This intestinal Vili abruptly increases the absorption layerofthewall of the intestine. The organ pancreas exists between the organ duodenum and stomach. Two ducts—bile duct and pancreatic duct compose a common duct whichopensinduodenum. The small intestine opens behind the large intestine x towards the rear side. The SY smal intestine helps in ‘Appendix Ay Anus eine Human digestive system (Cross sectional view) (b) Large Intestine : : This intestine comprises wall of two parts—colon and rectum. The colon : i the form of swellen smaller bag towards the exterior. The wall of “ rectum is also swellen at the small distance and opens through the annus. A thick tube is developed through the outlet of the small and large intestine and it is called caecum. At the end of caecum a narrow and small , : vermiform appendix exists. At the joint of ileum and colon a valve exists \ which is called ileocical valve which prevents the food-stuffs to go back to the small intestine.

Thus the absorption activities of the chyme is completed in small intestine. The cells of the Villi which are located in the small intestine absorb the suitable fluid chyme and transport these fluid chyme in the blood and lymph, Thus the glucose and amino acid of the digestive chyme are absorbed through the blood cells and transfused in the blood, but fatty acids and glycerin are absorbed throughthelymph.Laterthrough theblood circulatory mechaniern these fluid chyme (micronutrients) are transported to various organs of the body.

(ii) Lungs : In the chest cavity of the human body there exists a paiz ‘of cylindrical shaped fungs which are connected to the trachea and throat (pharyrrx) and from the structural point of view lungs are spongy. In every arly 300 crore tiny alveolar ducts filled with capillariesor small blood, vessels and whose surface is nearly 90 square metre. The right lung is longer while the left lung is smaller and flattened. The right lung is made from three lobs, while the left lung is made from two lobs and each lung is surrounded by a membrane which is called pleural membrane. This membrane protects the lungs and inside the membrane some fluid is filled up. The process of expansion and contraction takes place in the lungs and even if we pump out the trachea the lungs appear like an inflate balloon, Due to the expansion and contraction of the ribs of the chest cavity, its volume increases and decreases by means of air inhalation and exhalation, (iv) Diaphragm : The lower most floor of the chest cavity which is closed through a thin screen shaped structure is called diaphragm. Animals Respiratory organs Fish, Prawn, Sheep Chiome Lizard, Bird, Human, Snail Pulmonary skin Grass-hopper, Fly, Cockroach Trachea Miscellaneous During breathing nearly 400 ml water comes out everyday from the human body. The colour of the haemoglobin is violet, while the colour of the oxyhaemoglobin is shiny red. The amount of the oxygen which combines with the haemoglobin, depends on the partial osmatic pressure and the pH value of the blood. The normal breathing rate of human beings is 12-15 times per minute. During normal breathing nearly 1500 ml air are filled up inside the lungs and it is called functional residual capacity. Anaerobic respiration is also called sugar fermentation. lungr 3. Exceretory System The biological process through which the toxic residual substances formed inside the human body is pumped out is called excertion. To maintain a balance between the suitable amount of water and ions in the human body is called osmoregulation. The process of excertion and osmoregulation proceed simultaneously and various organs of the human body like kidney, lungs, skin, liver, intestine etc are the core components of the human excretory system. Various organs of the human excretory system 1.

The nephron is assumed to be the functional unit of kidney and it is also called excretory unit, The nephron is the rea] controller of the chemical composition of the blood. Structure of Nephrons : In every nephron e small conical shaped structure exists which is called Bowman's capsule and it is located in the cortex region. Through the Bowman's capsule a micro coiled tubule onginates which enters directly by erecting into the renal pelvis. Now this tubule by being filaten forms a loop which is called Loop of Henle. Now this tubule after entering into cortex portion again being coiled and then it opens in larger duct which is calied collecting duct. The collecting duct isa straight thick tube in which a number of nephrons tubules open and soesite Al collecting ducts open in renal pelvis and through it ureter originates, whic opens in urinary bladder.

In theadult these threebonesare mutually connected to each other, On the planar base of the pubis, another pubis is connected, while ilius is attached towards the forward by the Sacrum and towards the planar surface of the ischium another ischium is connected At the joint place of ilium, ischium and pubis there exists a narrows ditch which is called Acetabulum, in which the end of the femur bone is attached. The pelvic girdle provides the joints to connect the bones of leg with itself. In the leg of human. beings various bones like femur, tibia fibula, tarsals, meta tarsals ete. are found. In these bones tibia fibula is free and at the joint of femur and tibia fibula a round bone is found which is the knee-bone and it is called petla, At this joint the human leg only turns one time. The tarsals which is longer forms heel and the bones of the sole are called meta tarsals. In the thumb only two bones while in the other fingers three bones are jointly found. Joints: The place where the bones meet mutually to each other in such a way that there exists a smooth and easy movement (locomotion) is called joint. At the end of every joint composition of the bone there exists a layer Of cartilage and between both the bones a cavity is found which is called sinovial membrane. Also both bones are attached to each other through the elastic ligaments and which helps in smooth turning of these bones. .__. 1YPeS of joint : On the basis of movement (locomotion) the joint is divided into rfect joint, Imperfect joint and Fixed = three categories— Pe, A.

Calcitonin : When the amount of the calcium is excessively increased 7 inthe blood then calcitonin hormone is secreted which is used in controlling the amount of the calcium in the blood of the human body.

In these factors the character of onciacvs issuppressed the character of the another and thesuppressing factoris called dominant character while other factor is called recessive character In the generation only the dominant character is visible, while the recessive character is hidden and it appears in the next generation.

Thus the structural, eegulatoral and operational genes coexist. ~Mutation : The process through which the structure or the number of genes or chromosomes are altered immediately in which the hereditary changes take place is called Mutation. Thus due to it new hereditary characters appear and are carried forward generation to generation. Thus the mutation isnot sustained continuous affair but it appearsimmediately and abruptly and itis of two types— 1, Chromosome Mutation : Under it the number of present gene or location of the gene isaltered and sometimes innovative changes occur in the number of chromosomes or the structure of the chromosome is changed, 2, Gene Mutation : Under it a change in one or more of the bases in DNA takes place which results the formation of an abnormal protein. The gene mutations are inherited only if they occur in the cells that give rise to the gametes and then somatic mutations may give rise to chemaeras and cancers. The natural rate of mutation is extremely low but its frequency (occurrence probability) is increased abruptly if the invisible radiations of X-rays, U/V rays or y-rays directly affect the cells during the meiosis cell division. 10. Human Diseases The word disease implies that dis-ease (not easy). Thus by the means of disease we simply say that any disorder (irregularities) found in the body of the human beings comes into existence and through which the metabolic activities, body functioning like all the parameters which are necessarily needed for the good health and physical appearance are disrupted. ‘Types of disease : On the basis of its nature, character and causes of its spreadiness the disease is of two types— A. Congenital disease : The congenital diseases are those defects or disorders which are present by birth and it occurs from the errors of metabolism or from a defective body development. Such diseases attack during the pregnancy on the mother womb (uterus) in which the fertilized ovums of the female reside and due to the defect in the choromosonal Structure or any external physical hammering disease prevails. The diseases like Harelip, Cleft Palate, Club foot ete are the examples of Congenital diseases. Also because of the imbalance in the chromosomes the appearance of Mongalism, to born the blue baby due to a cardial disorder, pin ee of temporary blindness due to an abnormality present it nerves etc are the examples of congenital diseases, B. Acquired disease : The acquired diseases are those defects oF disorders which are not present by birth b ious factors. The acquired disease is of two types tt CatSeS by various factors. . 1 Infectious orCommunicabledisease:Theinfectiousorcommunicable diseases, are caused by the harmful micro organisms (microbes) like bacteria, virus, fungi, protozoa etc. These vectors (microbes) transmit through the ait water, food and by the physical touch of one body to another.

In almost all mammals the albinism is commonly caused by an autosomal recessive gene. & Phenylketonuria : The phenylketonuria is one of the amino acids of the proteins and it causes the inability to metabolise the amino acid. Also this gives rise to the accumulation of poison in the embryonic body which es the disruption in the growth of the body and mind. Such defect may Sometimes induce the micro or macro muta tion, B. Deficiency diseases 1. Protein deficiency diseases (2) Kwashiorkar : This disease is caused by the deficiency of amino- acids which are needed for the protein synthesis. In it the body growth ceased and sometimes the bone growth is delayed. Oedema, muscle wasting, dermatosis, hair changes (the hair of the head becomes rough and tough), enlarged liver (which leads to cirthosis), diarrhoea, mental laziness, decreased pigmentation, sadness Of expression etcare the common Symptoms of this disease.

The common symptoms of the influenza are inflammation in respiratory tract with fever, chill and muscular aches etc. The preventive measures of it are to use attenuated live virus vaccines like teramycine, tetracycline antibiotics. Also by doing the mouth wash through the solution of potassium permangnate the patient of the influenza get relaxed (b) AIDS (Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome): This isa Sexually ‘Transmitted Disease (STD) which is caused by the HIV virus via the blood and sperm through the sexual contact, directly into the blood by the intravenous drug use or through the transfusion of the infected blood. ‘The immune power of the AIDS infected person is completely damaged and any external attack of the virus and bacteria due to which a number of diseases appear which do not cure and ultimately patients die. The common symptoms of the AIDS are loss of 10% or more weight of the body, fever of unknown origin, pneumonia, brain tumours, haemorrhages, swelling of lymph glands, mouth ulcers etc. Under remedial measures the medicines like Suramin, Cychlosporin, revavaerin, ultra-interferon etc are used. Recently medicine Azidothymidine (AZT) is used frequently which is directly effective in stopping the abudent multiplication of the HIV virus, (©) Small pox : This is a highly infectious disease spread by the virus and which transmits directly through the air borne droplets or indirectly through the infected articles. The common symptoms of it are high fever, headache, backache, skin rashes on the third day passing through bright red spots, papules vesicles and pustules and scabs which fall on leaving pitted pock marks. Under the remedial measures vaccination is done and the patient should remain isolated from the other people. _(d) Dengue fever (Break bone fever): This disease is caused by the virus which transmits through the mosquitoes aedes aegypti, aedes albopictus and culex fatignsus. The common symptoms of this disease are sudden high fever, appearance of the rashes on the face and head, occurrence of severe pain in eyes, muscles and joints etc. Almost all time this disease spreads like an epidemic and it is confined up to a very large area. The remedial measure of it is to kill (eliminate) such mosquitoes which specially reside and accumulate in various dewellings and moist atmosphere in rainy days- The dengue is also called break bone fever.
