During leptotene stage the chromosomes become
gradually visible under the light microscope. The
compaction of chromosomes continues throughout
leptotene. This is followed by the second stage of
prophase I called zygotene. During this stage
chromosomes start pairing together and this process
of association is called synapsis. During pachytene,
the four chromatids of each bivalent chromosomes
becomes distinct and clearly appears as tetrads. This
stage is characterised by the appearance of
recombination nodules, the sites at which crossing
over occurs between non-sister chromatids of the
homologous chromosomes. The beginning of
diplotene is recognised by the dissolution of the
synaptonemal complex and the tendency of the
recombined homologous chromosomes of the
bivalents to separate from each other except at the

During cardiac cycle, the ventricular systole starts
about 0.1sec after the atrial systole, allowing the
atria to empty their blood into ventricles. The reason
for this delay is that the speed of conduction of
action potential is the slowest in AV node. The SAN
can generate the maximum number of action
potentials, i.e., 70-75 min–1, and is responsible for
initiating and maintaining the rhythmic contractile
activity of the heart. Therefore, it is called the

The oxygenated blood entering the aorta is carried
by a network of arteries, arterioles and capillaries to
the tissues from where the deoxygenated blood is
collected by a system of venules, veins and vena
cava and emptied into the right atrium. This is the
systemic circulation.
(NCERT; Class11th; Page No.-286)

Neural signals through the sympathetic nerves (part
of ANS) can increase the rate of heart beat, the
strength of ventricular contraction and thereby the
cardiac output. Adrenal medullary hormones can
also increase the cardiac output.

A bundle of nodal fibres, atrioventricular bundle
(AV bundle) continues from the AVN which passes
through the atrio-ventricular septa to emerge on the
top of the inter-ventricular septum and immediately
divides into a right and left bundle.

As the blood passes through the capillaries in
tissues, some water along with many small water-
soluble substances move out into the spaces between
the cells of tissues leaving the larger proteins and
most of the formed elements in the blood vessels.
This is called lymph. Coagulation of lymph is
slower than blood, because of small amount of
clotting factors.

The first heart sound (lub) is associated with the
closure of the tricuspid and bicuspid valves whereas
the second heart sound (dub) is associated with the
closure of the semilunar valves. This happens during
ventricular systole when blood from ventricles is
drained into aorta and pulmonary artery. The time
interval between the closure of these two valves is
approx. 0.3 sec.

Three types of cell junctions are found in the
epithelium and other tissues. These are called as
tight, adhering and gap junctions. Tight junctions
help to stop substances from leaking across a tissue.
Adhering junctions perform cementing to keep
neighbouring cells together. Gap junctions facilitate
the cells to communicate with each other by
connecting the cytoplasm of adjoining cells, for
rapid transfer of ions, small molecules and
sometimes big molecules.

Loose connective tissue has cells and fibres loosely
arranged in a semi-fluid ground substance, for
example, areolar tissue present beneath the skin.
Often it serves as a support framework for
epithelium. It contains fibroblasts (cells that produce
and secrete fibres), macrophages and mast cells.
Adipose tissue is another type of loose connective
tissue located mainly beneath the skin.

Each muscle is made of many long, cylindrical
fibres arranged in parallel arrays. These fibres are
composed of numerous fine fibrils, called
[16]
 myofibrils. Biceps are example of skeletal muscle.
Smooth muscle cells are bundled together in a
connective tissue sheath.
(NCERT; Class11th; Page No.-104, 105)
172. (2)
Communication junctions (intercalated discs) are
present in cardiac muscle cells at some fusion points
and allow the cells to contract as a unit, i.e., when
one cell receives a signal to contract, its neighbours
are also stimulated to contract. No communication
junction is present in skeletal muscles.
(NCERT; Class11th; Page No.-104,105)

Tendons, which attach skeletal muscles to bones is
example of dense regular connective tissue.
(NCERT; Class11th; Page No.-103)

Fibres and fibroblasts are compactly packed in the
dense connective tissues. Orientation of fibres show
a regular or irregular pattern and are called dense
regular and dense irregular tissues. In the dense
regular connective tissues, the collagen fibres are
present in rows between many parallel bundles of
fibres. Tendons, which attach skeletal muscles to
bones and ligaments which attach one bone to
another are examples of this tissue.
(NCERT; Class11th; Page No.- 103)

Some of the columnar or cuboidal cells get
specialised for secretion and are called glandular
epithelium. They are mainly of two types:
unicellular, consisting of isolated glandular cells
(goblet cells of the alimentary canal), and
multicellular, consisting of cluster of cells (salivary
gland). Compound epithelium is made of more than
one layer (multi-layered) of cells and thus has a
limited role in secretion and absorption. Their main
function is to provide protection against chemical
and mechanical stresses. They cover the dry surface
of the skin, the moist surface of buccal cavity,
pharynx, inner lining of ducts of salivary glands and
of pancreatic ducts.

The intercellular material of cartilage is solid and
pliable and resists compression. Cells of this tissue
(chondrocytes) are enclosed in small cavities within
the matrix secreted by them.
Bones have a hard and non-pliable ground substance
rich in calcium salts and collagen fibres which give
bone its strength.
(NCERT; Class11th; Page No.-104)

Exocrine glands secrete mucus, saliva, earwax, oil,
milk, digestive enzymes and other cell products.
These products are released through ducts or tubes.
In contrast, endocrine glands do not have ducts.
Their products called hormones are secreted directly
into the fluid bathing the gland.

We also notice, after some careful study that the
complexity in organ and organ systems displays
certain discernable trend. This discernable trend is
called evolutionary trend.

Arrival of the disturbance at the neuron's endings, or
output zone, triggers events that may cause
stimulation or inhibition of adjacent neurons and
other cells. When a neuron is suitably stimulated, an
electrical disturbance is generated which swiftly
travels along its plasma membrane.

Among vertebrates, fishes use gills whereas
amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals respire
through lungs. Amphibians like frogs can respire
through their moist skin (cutaneous respiration)
also.

Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV) is additional
volume of air, a person can inspire by a forcible
inspiration. This averages 2500 mL to 3000 mL.
Expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV) is the additional
volume of air, a person can expire by a forcible
expiration. This averages 1000 mL to 1100 mL.

When pCO2 is high and pO2 is low as in the tissues,
more binding of carbon dioxide occurs whereas,
when the pCO2 is low and pO2 is high as in the
[17]
 alveoli, dissociation of CO2 from carbamino-
haemoglobin takes place, i.e., CO2 which is bound
to haemoglobin from the tissues is delivered at the
alveoli

Neural signal from this centre can reduce the
duration of inspiration and thereby alter the
respiratory rate. A chemosensitive area is situated
adjacent to the rhythm centre which is highly
sensitive to CO2 and hydrogen ions. The role of
oxygen in the regulation of respiratory rhythm is
quite insignificant.
(NCERT; Class11th; Page No.-275)

Relaxation of the diaphragm and the inter-costal
muscles returns the diaphragm and sternum to their
normal positions and reduce the thoracic volume
and thereby the pulmonary volume. This leads to an
increase in intra-pulmonary pressure to slightly
above the atmospheric pressure causing the
expulsion of air from the lungs, i.e., expiration.

RBCs contain a very high concentration of the
enzyme, carbonic anhydrase and minute quantities
of the same is present in the plasma too. This
enzyme facilitates the formation of HCO3- from
CO2 and H2O and in reverse direction too.

To begin with, all the four chambers of heart are in
a relaxed state, i.e., they are in joint diastole. As the
tricuspid and bicuspid valves are open, blood from
the pulmonary veins and vena cava flows into the
left and the right ventricle respectively through the
left and right atria. The semilunar valves are closed
at this stage.

A bundle of nodal fibres, atrioventricular bundle
(AV bundle) continues from the AVN which passes
through the atrio-ventricular septa to emerge on the
top of the inter-ventricular septum and immediately
divides into a right and left bundle. These branches
give rise to minute fibres throughout the ventricular
musculature of the respective sides and are called
purkinje fibres.
The SAN can generate the maximum number of
action potentials, i.e., 70-75 min–1, and is
responsible for initiating and maintaining the
rhythmic contractile activity of the heart.

Neutrophils are the most abundant cells (60-65 per
cent) of the total WBCs and basophils are the least
(0.5-1 per cent) among them. Neutrophils and
monocytes (6-8 per cent) are phagocytic cells which
destroy foreign organisms entering the body.

Heart failure is not the same as cardiac arrest (when
the heart stops beating) or a heart attack (when the
heart muscle is suddenly damaged by an inadequate
blood supply).

The QRS complex represents the depolarisation of
the ventricles, which initiates the ventricular
[18]
 contraction. The contraction starts shortly after Q
and marks the beginning of the systole.

Hypertension is the term for blood pressure that is
higher than normal (120/80). If repeated checks of
blood pressure of an individual is 140/90 (140 over
90) or higher, it shows hypertension. High blood
pressure leads to heart diseases and also affects vital
organs like brain and kidney.
