Control and coordination in animals is carried out by the nervous system and endocrine system. The nervous system consists of the brain, spinal cord and nerves. It detects stimuli through receptors and responds through effectors like muscles and glands. The pathways between receptors, central nervous system and effectors allow for reflex actions which occur unconsciously. In plants, coordination is carried out by plant hormones which allow for movements like phototropism in response to stimuli. The endocrine system also helps coordinate responses through hormones that regulate growth, metabolism and response to threats.

The genetic message is contained in chromosomes (which are threadlike structures found in the nucleus of every cell). Each chromosome carries many genes. Chromosomes are made of DNA (which contains the genetic blueprint for each individual). A gene is a section of a DNA.
Anatomy and physiology concerned with the structures and functions of the human body.
• Anatomy describes the structures of the body -- their scientific names, composition,
location, and associated structures. Anatomy (“a cutting open”) is a plan or map of the
body.
• Physiology studies the function of each structure, individually and in combination with
other structures.
• Anatomy and physiology always work together. As we examine each part of the body,
always consider both its structure and its function.
Physiology is the science of body functions.
It is the study of mechanical, physical and biochemical properties of living organisms.
anatomy is the science of body structures and their inter-relationships.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

1. CHAPTER - 7
CONTROL AND COORDINATION
Class :- X
Subject :- Science
Name of Teacher :- Mr. S. K. Ojha (PGT Bio)
School :- KV RRL Jorhat, Assam
2. 1a) Stimuli :-
The changes in the environment to which living
organisms respond are called stimuli.
Eg :- heat, cold, sound, smell, taste, touch, pressure,
gravity, water etc.
Living organisms respond to stimuli in the form of body
movements.
b) Coordination :-
For a proper response to a stimulus many organs in the
body should work together. The working together of
various organs in an organism to produce a proper
response to a stimulus is called coordination.
i) In animals control and co ordination is done by the
nervous system and endocrine system.
ii) In plants control and co ordination is done by chemical
substances called plant hormones or phytohormones.
3. 2) Coordination in animals :-
In animals control and co ordination is done by the nervous system
and endocrine system.
The nervous system consists of the brain, spinal cord and nerves.
a) Receptors :- are the sense organs which receive the stimuli and
pass the message to the brain or spinal cord through the sensory
nerves.
Eg :- Photoreceptors in the eyes to detect light.
Phonoreceptors in the ears to detect sound.
Olfactory receptors in the nose to detect smell.
Gustatory receptors in the tongue to detect taste.
Tangoreceptors in the skin to detect touch.
b) Effectors :- are the muscles and glands which respond to the
information from the brain and spinal cord through the motor nerves.
c) Sensory nerves :- are nerves which carry information from the
receptors (sense organs) to the brain and spinal cord.
d) Motor nerves :- are nerves which carry information from the brain
and spinal cord to the effectors (muscles and glands).
6. 3) Human nervous system :-
a) Parts of the nervous system :-
The human nervous system consists of the Central Nervous System
and Peripheral Nervous System.
i) The central nervous system :- consists of the brain, and spinal
cord.
ii) The peripheral nervous system:- consists of cranial nerves
arising from the brain and spinal nerves arising from the spinal cord.
9. b) Nerve cell (Neuron) :-
Neuron is the structural and functional unit of the nervous system. It
has a cell body called cyton containing a nucleus and cytoplasm. It has
several branched structures called dendrites. It has a long nerve fibre
called axon which is covered by a protective covering called Myelin
sheath. The junction between two neurons is called synapse.
Messages pass through the nerve cell in the form of chemical and
electrical signals called nerve impulse. The dendrites receive the
information and starts a chemical reaction which produce electrical
impulse which passes through the axon.
13. c) Brain :-
The brain is the main coordinating centre in the human body. It is
protected by the cranium. It is covered by three membranes called
meninges filled with a fluid called cerebrospinal fluid which protects
the brain from shocks.
The brain has three main parts. They are fore brain, mid brain and
hind brain.
i) Fore brain :- consists of the cerebrum and olfactory lobes. It is the
thinking part of the brain and controls voluntary actions. It controls
touch, smell, hearing, taste, sight, mental activities like thinking,
learning, memory, emotions etc.
ii) Mid brain :- controls involuntary actions and reflex movements of
head, neck, eyes etc.
iii) Hind brain :- consists of cerebellum, pons and medulla.
Cerebellum :- controls body movements, balance and posture.
Pons :- controls respiration.
Medulla :- controls heart beat, blood pressure, swallowing, coughing,
sneezing, vomitting etc.
16. d) Spinal cord :-
The spinal cord starts from the brain and extends
through the vertebral column. It has 31 pairs of spinal
nerves.
It carries messages to and from the brain. It also
controls reflex actions.
17. 4a) Reflex action :-
Reflex action is a sudden, unconcious and involuntary
response of the effectors to a stimulus.
Eg :- We suddenly withdraw our hand if we suddenly
touch a hot object.
In this reflex action, the nerves in the skin (receptor)
detects the heat and passes the message through the
sensory nerves to the spinal cord. Then the information
passes through the motor nerves to the muscles (effector)
of the hand and we withdraw our hand.
21. b) Reflex arc :-
The pathway of a reflex action is called reflex arc. In a
reflex arc the stimulus is received by the receptors (sense
organs) and it passes through the sensory nerves to the
spinal cord. From the spinal cord the information passes
through the motor nerves to the effectors (muscles/glands)
for the response.

23. 5) Coordination in plants :-
In plants control and coordination is done by chemical
substances called plant hormones or phytohormones.
There are five main types of plant hormones. They are :-
Auxins, Gibberillins, Cytokinins, Abscisic acid and
Ethylene.
i) Auxins :- help in cell division, cell elongation and
growth.
ii) Gibberillins :- help in growth of stem and branches.
iii) Cytokinins:- help in cell division, formation of fruits and
seeds.
iv) Abscisic acid :- inhibits growth and affects wilting of
leaves.
vi) Ethylene :- helps in flowering and ripening of fruits.
24. 6) Movements in plants :-
Movements in plants are of two main types. They are :-Tropic
movements and Nastic movements.
a) Tropic movements :- are directional movements towards or
away from the stimulus and it depends on growth. They are of
different types like Phototropism, Geotropism, Chemotropism,
Hydrotropism etc.
i) Phototropism :- is movement of plants in response to light. If it is
towards light, it is called positive phototropism. Eg:- Bending of
shoot towards light. If it is away from light, it is called negative
phototropism. Eg:- Bending of root away from light.
ii) Geotropism :- is the movement of plants in response to gravity. If it is
towards gravity it is called positive geotropism. Eg:- Downward
growth of roots. If it is away from gravity it is called negative
geotropism. Eg:- Upward growth of shoot.
iii) Chemotropism :- is movement of plant in response to chemical
stimuli. Eg:- Growth of pollen tube towards the ovule.
iv) Hydrotropism :- is the movement of plants in response to water.
27. b) Nastic movements :- are non directional movements which
are neither towards or away from the stimulus and it does not
depend on growth.
Eg :- If we touch the leaves of touch me not plant, its leaves fold up
and droops down immediately due to the change in the amount of
water in the leaves. Depending upon the amount of water in the
leaves, it swells or shrinks.
28. 7) Endocrine glands in human beings :-
The endocrine glands also help in control and coordination. The endocrine
glands produce chemical substances which help to control and coordinate
various activities in the body.
The endocrine glands in our body are :- pineal, hypothalamus, pituitary,
thyroid, parathyroid, thymus, adrenal, pancreas, testes and ovary.
Examples of coordination by endocrine glands :-
i) When we are frightened or angry, the adrenal glands produce more
adrenalin hormone which is sent through the blood to the heart, rib muscles
and diaphragm. This increases breathing rate to supply more oxygen to the
muscles to prepare the body to either run away or fight with the enemy.
ii) Iodine is needed by the thyroid gland to produce the hormone thyroxin.
Thyroxin controls the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and proteins and helps
in proper growth. If the diet is deficient in iodine it causes goitre.
iii) The pituitary gland produce growth hormones. Deficiency of this hormone in
childhood causes dwarfism. Excess of this hormone causes tall growth.
iv) The pancreas produces the hormone insulin which controls the blood sugar
level. Increase in blood sugar level causes diabetes. A diabetic patient has to
take insulin injections to control his blood sugar level.
v) The testes in males produces the hormone testosterone which controls the
production of sperms and changes during puberty.
The ovary in females produces the hormone oestrogen which controls the
