CHAPTER 1 - THE LIVING WORLD
Points to Remember
1. Organism (Microorganism, plant and animals) who posseses life is living.
2. Life is a complex organisation expressing itself through chemical reactions and exhibit characteristics of living organisms.
3. Characteristics of Living Organisms : Growth, reproduction, metabolism, cellular organisation, consciousness, self-replicating and self regulation.
  Reproduction and growth are NOT defining properties.
  Metabolism (Catabolic + Anabolic), cellular organisation and consciousness are defining properties.
  Living organisms are self-replicating, evolving, self-regulating and interactive systems capable of responding to external stimuli.
4. Biodiversity : The term used to refer to the variety of microorganisms, plant and animals on earth.
5. Need for classification : To organise the vast number of microorganisms, plants and animals into categories that could be named, remembered, studied and understood.
6. Three Domains of Life : Proposed by Carl Woese in 1990, who also proposed the six kingdom classification for living organisms. The three Domains of life are Archaea, Bacteria and Eukarya.
7. Taxonomy : Study of principles and procedures of identification, nomenclature and classification.
8. Systematics : It deals with classification of organisms based on their diversities and relationships among them. The term was proposed by Carolus Linnaeus who wrote ‘Systema Naturae’.
9. Concept of Species : All the members that can interbreed among themselves and can produce fertile offsprings are the members of same species. This is the biological concept of species proposed by Mayr.
10. Taxa : Each category (i.e., unit) of classification is called as a taxon.
11. Taxonomic Hierarchy : Classification of organisms in a definite sequence of taxon or category or rank in a descending order.
 Kingdom → Phylum /Division → Class → Order → Family → Genus → Species.
12. Binomial Nomenclature : Given by Carolus Linnaeus. Each scientific name has two components-Generic name + Specific epithet.
13. ICBN : International Code for Botanical Nomenclature (for giving scientific name to plants.)
14. ICZN : International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (for giving scientific name to animals.)
15. Rule for Nomenclature :
  Latinised names are used.
  First word is genus, second word is species name.
  Printed in italics; if handwritten then underlined separately.
  First word starts with capital letter while species name written in small letter.
16.  Scientific names of some organisms :
 Man — Homo sapiens
 Housefly — Musca domestica
 Mango — Mangifera indica
 Wheat — Triticum aestivum
17. Taxonomical Aids are the tools for study of taxonomy.
18. Museums in educational institutes (school and colleges) have collection of skeletons of animals, stuffed and preserved specimens of organisms for study and reference.
19. Zoological Parks (Places where wild animals are kept in protected environment under human care) Example : National Zoological Park, Delhi.
20. Herbarium : Store house of dried, pressed and preserved plant specimen on sheets, kept systematically according to a widely accepted system of classification, for future use

CHAPTER 2 - BIOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATIONS
Points to Remember
Systems of Classification :
 Earliest classification was given by Aristotle. Divided plants into herbs,
shrubs and trees.
 Animals into those with red blood and those who do not have it.
 Two kingdom classification : Given by Carolus Linneaeus–Kingdom– plantae and kingdom–Animalia.
 Five kingdom classification : By R.H. Whittaker, Monera, Protista, Fungi, Plantae and Animalia are the five kingdoms.
 The main criteria for classification of organisms into five kingdoms include cell structure, thallus organisation, mode of nutrition, reproduction and phylogenetic relationships.
Kingdom Monera :
 Has bacteria as sole members.
 Cell wall made up of peptidoglycan.
 Bacteria can have shapes like : Coccus (spherical), Bacillus (rod-shaped), Vibrium (comma shaped) and spirillum (spiral shaped).
 Bacteria found almost everywhere and can be Photosynthetic autotrophs,Archaebacteria
 Halophiles (salt-loving)
 Thermoacidophiles (in hot springs)
 Methanogens (in marsh and in gut of ruminant animals. Produce methane gas.)
 Eubacteria
 Photosynthetic autotrophs like Cyanobacteria (Blue-green algae BGA). Some like Anabaena and Nostoc have specialized cells called heterocysts for nitrogen fixation.
 Algae bloom is rich growth of blue green algae over the surface of polluted water bodies.
 Algae bloom releases neurotoxins, deplete oxygen and makes water unfit for use.
 Chemosynthetic autotrophs : Oxidise various inorganic substances like nitrates/nitrites, ammonia and use released energy for their ATP production.
They helps in nutrients recycling of N, P, Fe and S.
 Heterotrophic bacteria : Decomposers help in making curd, production of antibiotic, N2 fixation, casuse diseases like cholera, typhoid, tetanus and citrus canker. Mycoplasmas : Completely lack cell wall. Smallest living cells. Can survive without oxygen. Pathogenic in animals and plants.
1. Artificial System of Classification
1. It utilise one or two morphological trail.
2. Homology is never standard.
3. The system does not employ characters from anatomy cytology, biochemistry, genetics etc. for grouping of organisms.
2. Natural System of Classification

CHAPTER - 3  PLANT KINGDOM
Points to Remember
Classification :
 Artificial System of Classification
  By Carolus Linnaeus, based on androecium structure and vegetative characters.
 Natural System of Classification
  Based on natural affinities among organisms
  Included external as well as internal features
  By Geroge Bentham and J.D. Hooker
 Phylogenetic System of Classification
  Based on evolutionary relationships between the various organisms
  By Engler and Prantl
  Later on By Hutchinson
Numerical Taxonomy :
 Carried out using computers
 Based on all observable characteristics
 Data processed after assigning number and codes to all the characters.
 Advantages : Each character gets equal importance and a number of
characters can be considered.
Cytotaxonomy :
 Based on cytological informations.
 Gives importance to chromosome number, structure and behaviour. Chemotaxonomy :
 Based on Chemical constituents of the plants. Algae :
 Chlorophyll bearing, simple, thalloid, autotrophic and largely aquatic
organisms.
Importance of Algae :
 Help in carbon dioxide fixation by carrying out photosynthesis and have
immense economic importance.
 At least half of the total carbon dioxide fixation on earth carried out by them.
 Increases dissolved oxygen level in their environment.
 Many species like Laminaria, Sargassum, Porphyra etc. are used as food.
 Agar obtained from Gelidium and Gracilaria which is used in ice-creams
and jellies and to grow microbes.
 Algin obtained from brown algae and carrageen from red algae used
commercially as hydrocolloids.
 Chlorella and Spirullina are unicellular algae, rich in protein and used even
by space travellers.
 Algae are unicellular like Chlamydomonas, colonial like Volvox or or
filamentous like spirogyra and Ulothrix. Occur in water, soil, wood moist
stones etc.
 Algae are divided into 3 classes.
(i) Chlorophyceae
  Green algae, Main pigment is chlorophyll ‘a’ and ‘b’.
  Cell wall has inner layer of cellulose and outer layer of pectose.
  Has pyrenoids made up of starch and proteins.
  Pigment and pyrenoids are located in Chloroplast.

Reproduction in Bryophytes
 Vegetative reproduction by fragmentation.
 Asexual reproduction by gemmae formed in gemma cups.
 Sexual reproduction : Main plant body is haploid, produces gametes and so
called Gametophyte. By fusion of antherozoids produced in antheridium
and egg cell produced in archegonium, results in formation of zygote which
develops into sporophytic structure differentiated into foot, seta and capsule.
Spores produced in a capsule germinate to from free-living gametophyte
(Protonema). Sporophyte is not free living but attached to photosynthetic
gametophyte from which it derives nutrition.
Pteridophytes :
 First terrestrial plants.
 Prefer cool, damp and shady places to grow.
 Grown as ornamentals.
 Used for medicinal purpose, as soil binder.
 Main plant body is sporophyte which is differentiated into true root, stem
and leaves.
 Leaves may be small as in Selaginella or large as in ferms.
 Sporangia having spores are subtended by leaf-like appendages called
sporophylls. (Sporphylls may be arranged to form strobili or cones.)
 In Sporangia, the spore mother cells give to spores after meiosis.
 Spores germinate to form haploid gametophytic structure called prothallus
which is free living, small, unicellular and photosynthetic.
 Prothallus bears antheridia and archegonia which bear antherozoids and
egg cell respectively which on fertilisation from zygote. Zygote produces
multicellular, well differentiated sporophyte
Gymnosperms :
 Have naked seeds as the ovules are not enclosed by any ovary wall and
remain exposed.
 Includes shrubs and trees (medium and tall sized).
 Have generally tap roots, stem may be unbranched (Cycas) or branched
(Pinus, Cedrus), leaves–needle like (Pinus) and pinnate (Cycas).
 Roots of Pinus have fungal association in the form of mycorrhiza.
 Cycas have small specialized roots called coralloid root which are associated
with N2 fixing cyanobacteria.
 Heterosporous–Produce haploid microspores and megaspores.
 Male cone has microsporophylls which bear microsporangia having
microspores which develop into reduced gametophyte called pollengrain.
 Female cone has megasporophylls which bear megasporongia having
megaspores which are enclosed within the megasporangium (Nucellus).
One megaspore develops into female gametophyte bearing two or more
archegonia.
 Pollen grains carried in air currents reach ovules, form pollen tube which
reach archegonia and release male gametes which fertilise egg cell and form
zygote which produce embryos. Ovules develop into seeds which are not
covered.

CHAPTER 4 - ANIMAL KINGDOM
Basis of Classification :
 Animals are classified on the basis of following few fundamental features—
1. Levels of Organisation :
 (1) Cellular level : Cells are arranged as loose cell aggregates, e.g.,sponges.
 (2) Tissue level : The cells performing the same function are arranged into
tissues, e.g., Coelenterates.
 (3) Organ level : Tissues are grouped together to form organs, each specialised for a particular function. e.g., platyhelminthes.
 (4) Organ system level : organs are associated to form functional systems e.g., Annelids, Arthropods, Molluscs, Echinoderms and Chordates.
 Example : Circulatory System.
 Open type : Blood pumped out through heart. Not confined to blood vessels. Cells and tissues are directly bathed in it.
 Closed types : Blood is circulated through blood vessels (arteries,veins and
capillaries)
2. Symmetry :
  Asymmetrical : Cannot be divided into equal halves through median plane e.g., Sponges.
  Radial symmetry : Any plane passing through central axis can divide organism
into identical halves. e.g., coelentrates,Ctenophores and echinoderms.
  Bilateral symmetry : Only one plane can divide the organism into two identical
 eft and right halves e.g., Annelids and Arthropods.
3. Germinal Layers :
 Diploblastic : Cells arranged in two embryonic layers i.e., external ectoderm and internal endoderm. (Mesoglea may be present in between ectoderm and
endoderm) e.g., porifers and Coelentrates. (Cnidarians)
 Triploblastic : Three layers present in developing embryo i.e., ectoderm,
mesoderm and endoderm. e.g., Platyhelminthes to Chordates. Coelom (Body cavity which is lined by mesoderm)
 Coelomates : Have coelom e.g., Annelids, Arthropods, molluscs, Echinoderms,
Chordates etc.
 Pseudocoelomates : No true coelem as mesoderm is present in scattered
pouches between ectoderm and endoderm. e.,g., Aschelminthes.
 Acoelomates : Body cavity is absent e.g., Platyhelminthes.
5. Segmentation (A) True Metamerism : Found Annelida,Arthropoda,
Chordata :
  Segmentation is external as well as a internal in Annelids.
 Segmentation is external in Arthropods.
  Segmentation is internal in chordates.
  Metamerism : If body is externally and internally divided into segments
(metameres) with serial repetition of atleast some organs, then phenomenon is
called metamerism e.g., Earthworm. (B) Pseudometamerism : Found in
tapeworm. The proglottids (segments of tapeworm) budded off from neck
not embryonic in origin.
6. Notochord :
  Rod-like structure formed during embryonic development on the dorsal side.
It is mesodermally derived e.g., Chordates.
  Non-chordates do not have notochord .e.g., porifera to echinoderms.
Phylum Porifera :
 Also called sponges.
 Are usually marine and asymmetrical.
 Have cellular level of organisation and diploblastic animals.
 Food gathering, respiratory exchange and removal of wastes occurs through
water canal system. Digestion intracellular.
 Ostia (minute pores on body), spongocoel (body cavity) and osculum help
in water transport. They are lined by choanocytes (collar cells).
 Body wall has skeleton of spicules or spongin fibres.
 Animals are hermaphrodite. Fertilisation internal. Development is indirect
(i.e., has a larval stage distinct from adult stage) e.g., Sycon, Euspongia.
Spongilla (Fresh water sponge)
Phylum Coelenterata :
 Also called Cnidarians.
 Are usually marine and radially symmetrical.
 Sessile or free swimming

Phylum Ctenophora :

 Show Bioluminescence (Property of living organisms to emit light).
 Hermaphrodite (sexes are not separate).
 Only sexual reproduction occurs. Exernal fertilization. Indirect development.
e.g., Ctenoplana, Pleurobrachia.
Phylum Plathyhelminthes :
 Also called as ‘flat worms’.
 Have dorsoventrally flattened body. Are mostly endoparasites in animals.
 Are bilaterally symmetrical, triploblastic, acoelomate,with organ level of
orgnisation.
 Absorb nutrients through body surface.
 Parasitic forms have hooks and suckers.
 ‘Flame cells’ help in osmoregulation and excretion
