Thank you!
Here's a brief introduction to control and coordination class 10 science:
"Control and coordination are fundamental processes in living organisms that ensure proper functioning and response to stimuli. In simpler terms, control refers to the regulation of various activities within an organism, while coordination involves the harmonious integration of these activities. In humans and many other animals, control and coordination are primarily carried out by the nervous system and the endocrine system. The nervous system allows for rapid responses to stimuli through nerve impulses, while the endocrine system regulates physiological processes using chemical messengers called hormones. Together, these systems ensure that organisms can adapt to changes in their environment, maintain internal balance (homeostasis), and carry out essential functions for survival and well-being."

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.
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.

hillock.
• Short fibers project out of the cell body are
called dendrites
• Dendrites passes information as electrical impulse through axon
5. • Axon is a long tail like structure joins with
cell body at a junction called axon hillock.
• Axon is covered by a protective covering
called Myelin sheath.
• The gaps between two adjacent myelin
sheaths are called nodes of Ranvier.

Draw the structure of a neuron and explain its function.
Dendrite: Detects information's & transfer it to cell body
Cell Body: Maintains growth of cells
Axon: Conduct impulses away from cell body to next neuron.
51. What is the function of receptors in our body? Think of
situations where receptors do not work properly. What
problems are likely to arise?
How does phototropism occur in plants?
Receptors are present mainly in sense organs and they collect
information's and send it to the brain.
When receptors do not work properly, the environmental stimuli
are not able to create nerve impulses and body does not respond.
Tropic movement and growth of plant in response to light is called as
phototropism. Phototropism occurs due to increased auxin on the dark
side and decreased auxin on the illuminated side. Because of presence
of more auxin, stem in the darker side grows faster causing it to bend
towards the source of light.
52. What happens at the synapse between two neurons?
At the synapse between two neurons electric signals are transmitted
through chemical (neurotransmitter) and cross 200-300 A0 gap and
transfer messenger to next neuron.
How does chemical coordination occur in plants?
Growth, development and responses of plant to the environment is
controlled and coordinated by a chemical substances known as
phytohormone. Phytohormones are produced in one part of the plant
and are transported to all the needy parts of the plant. Both natural
and artificial phytohormone either acts as growth promoters (such as
auxins, gibberellins, cytokinins, and ethylene) or growth inhibitors
such as abscisic acid.
53. Why are some patients of diabetes treated by giving injections
of insulin?
Insulin regulates blood glucose by converting extra glucose to glycogen.
Diabetes is a condition when production of insulin is stopped or
decreased in human body. Thus, inadequate production of insulin leads to
adverse effect in human body. In order to maintain this situation diabetes
patients are treated with injections of insulin.
Which part of the brain maintains posture and equilibrium of
the body?
Cerebellum which is a part of Hind brain is responsible for
Controls the motor functioning and maintenance of posture,
equilibrium of the body.
Which body organ is surrounded by meninges. (CCE 2013)
Brain and spinal cord
54. Which signals will get disrupted in case of a spinal cord injury?
In case of a spinal cord injury Reflex action will be disrupted. Thus,
impulses from various body parts will not be conducted to brain and
message from brain will not be conducted to various organs of the
body.
Why is the use of iodized salt advisable?
Usage of Iodized salt is advisable to avoid the deficiency of Iodine. If
the intake of iodine is low, the release of thyroxine from the thyroid
gland will be decreased. This affects fat, carbohydrate and protein
metabolism. Thus a person may have goitre problem in case if the
intake of iodine is lowered.
55. How are involuntary actions and reflex actions different from each other?
Reflex actions Involuntary actions
• Rapid automatic responses to a
stimulus without the conscious
involvement of the brain
• Occurs without the
consciousness of an organism
• Controlled by spinal cord • Controlled by mid brain or
medulla oblongata
• Very quick and instantaneous • Relatively slower
• May involve any muscle or a
gland
• Involves only smooth muscles
• Can be conditioned • Cannot be influenced by
external conditioning
Examples: Blinking of eyes,
salivation
Examples: Beating of heart, blood
circulation
56. Nervous Control Hormonal Control
1 It is consist of nerve impulses
between PNS, CNS and
Brain.
1 It consists of endocrine
system which secretes
hormones directly into blood.
2 Here response time is very
short.
2 Here response time is very
long.
3 Nerve impulses are not
specific in their action.
3 Each hormone has specific
actions.
4 The flow of information is
rapid.
4 The flow of information is
very slow.
Compare and contrast nervous and hormonal mechanisms
for control and coordination in animals.
57. What is the difference between the manner in which movement
takes place in a sensitive plant and the movement in our legs?
Sl.
no
Sensitive Plants Movement Sl.
no
Our Legs Movement
1 The movement in a
sensitive plant is a response
to stimulus (touch) which is
an involuntary action.
1 Movement in our legs is a
voluntary action.
2 No special tissue is there
for the transfer of
information
2 A complete system CNS
and PNS is there for the
information exchange.
3 Plant cells do not have
specialized protein for
movements.
3 Animal cells have
specialized protein which
help muscles to contract.
58. Multicellular organism consists of a number of components and sub-
components to perform different specialized functions. So, it is necessary that
various organs of the body of an organism work together in a proper manner for
proper functioning to a stimulus.
In humans, control and coordination are carried out by nervous system and
endocrine system. Same role is plants are exhibited through various
phytohormones. Similarly, secretion of hormones from endocrine gland in
animal, regulate proper growth, development & functioning of different organs.
Whereas, nervous system helps to respond to our surroundings and to perform
daily activities. It does so by sensing stimuli (external and internal) followed by
a relay of sensory information to CNS (Central Nervous System) for processing
and generation of motor output in terms of involuntary or voluntary actions.
What is the need for a system of control and coordination in an
organism?
59. What is the role of the brain in reflex action?
Reflex actions are formed instantaneously in response to the stimulus
that has no time to think. Here the sensory nerves detect the external
stimuli are connected to the nerves that move the muscles of the hand
for action. Such a connection of detecting the signal from the nerves
(input) and responding to it quickly (output) is known as reflex arc.
Reflex action are generated in spinal cord and the information also
reaches to brain. This helps the brain to record this event and remember
it for future use. Brain helps the person to remember & aware regarding
similar stimuli. By identifying same types of stimuli, brain prevent
himself from similar situation.
How do we detect the smell of an agarbatti ?
Smell of an agarbatti is detected by Nose, which is consist of olfactory
receptors. These olfactory receptors send electrical signal to the fore
brain to interprets this signal. Thus the smell of agarbatti are detected.
