NCERT Solutions Intext Questions Page No.143


Question 1. If a trait A exists in 10% of a population of an asexually reproducing species and a trait B exists in 60% of the same population, which trait is likely to have arisen earlier?


Question 2. How does the creation of variations in a species promote survival?


NCERT Solutions Intext Questions Page No.147


Question 1. How do Mendel’s experiments show that traits may be dominant or recessive?


Question 2. How do Mendel’s experiments show that traits are inherited independently?

Question 1. What factors could lead to the rise of a new species?


Question 2. Will geographical isolation be a major factor in the speciation of a selfpollinating plant species? Why or why not?

Question 1. Give an example of characteristics being used to determine how close two species are in evolutionary terms.


Question 2. Can the wing of a butterfly and the wing of a bat be considered homologous organs? Why or why not?

Question 2. In evolutionary terms, can we say which among bacteria, spiders, fish and chimpanzees have a ‘better’ body design? Why or why not?


NCERT Solutions Exercises Questions


Question 1. A Mendelian experiment consisted of breeding tall pea plants bearing violet flowers with short pea plants bearing white flowers. The progeny all bore violet flowers, but almost half of them were short. This suggests that the genetic make-up of the tall parent can be depicted as
(a) TTWW
(b) TTww
(c) TtWW
(d) TtWw


Question 2. An example of homologous organs is
(a) our arm and a dog’s fore-leg.
(b) our teeth and an elephant’s tusks.
(c) potato and runners of grass.
(d) all of the above.


Question 3. In evolutionary terms, we have more in common with
(a) a Chinese school-boy.
(b) a chimpanzee.
(c) a spider.
(d) a bacterium.


Question 4. A study found that children with light-coloured eyes are likely to have parents with light-coloured eyes. On this basis, can we say anything about whether the light eye colour trait is dominant or recessive? Why or why not?


Question 5. How are the areas of study – evolution and classification – interlinked?


Question 6. Explain the terms analogous and homologous organs with examples.


Question 7. Outline a project which aims to find the dominant coat colour in dogs.


Question 8. Explain the importance of fossils in deciding evolutionary relationships.


Question 9. What evidence do we have for the origin of life from inanimate matter?


Question 10. Explain how sexual reproduction gives rise to more viable variations than asexual reproduction. How does this affect the evolution of those organisms that reproduce sexually?


Question 11. How is the equal genetic contribution of male and female parents ensured in the progeny?


Question 12. Only variations that confer an advantage to an individual organism will survive in a population. Do you agree with this statement? Why or why not?
