Starting with chapter 1 LIVING WORLD 

Metabolism, irritability/ consciousness and cellular organization are defining features of the living organism. 

GROWTH 

Increase in mass or overall size of an tissue is called growth. 

Growth is irreversible 

Increase in mass and number of cells are twin characters of growth which means if mass increases then the no. of cells will increase too and vice versa

THERE ARE SEVERAL TYPES OF GROWTH, THEY ARE.....

INDETERMINANT                                                       DETERMINANT 

(unlimited)                                                                 (limited)

e.g PLANT                                                                  e.g HUMANS 


LOCALIZED                                                               DIFFUSED

Growth of a specific part                                 All over growth 

e.g PLANTS                                                               e.g HUMANS 


INTRINSIC                                                                  EXTRINSIC 

growth is internal                                                growth is external

only by living organisms                                  may be shown by non living things

defining feature 

e.g PLANTS AND ANIMALS                                   e.g SAND DUNES

In unicellular organisms, growth and reproduction are the same thing 


REPRODUCTION  

In unicellular organisms, the chance of identical, is 100%. whereas,

Multicellular organism has 99% of chance. this is due to rariation --->sexual ---> evolution 

TYPES OF REPRODUCTION 

 ASEXUAL                                                                          SEXUAL

Only one parent                                                            Two parents  

No fusion of gametes                                                  fusion of gametes

no variation                                                                    variation is seen 

no gamete formation                                                 gamete formation takes place 

Types of Asexual reproduction                              Sexual reproduction

*Spore formation: Algae and Fungi                         { .(2n) ---->[meiosis] :  : (n)}

*Budding: Hydra and Yeast                                               .     .

*Fragmentation: Spyrogyra (plants)                               V

*True Regeneration: Planaria (animals)                    : (2n)

*Regeneration: Lizard and Starfish
