7.RESPIRATION – Notes for Students What is Respiration? Respiration is the process by which cells release energy from food (mainly glucose) with the help of oxygen. It is a biochemical process that happens inside the cells (cellular respiration) . Why is Respiration Important? After digestion and absorption, food is assimilated into the body. The assimilated food is used for: Energy production – to perform various life processes (movement, growth, repair, etc.). Growth and repair – to build new cells and tissues. Respiration helps to release energy stored in food to keep the organism alive. How Energy is Released? Food acts as the fuel . Oxygen reacts with glucose (a simple sugar) in the cells. This reaction is like a slow burning of glucose. Energy is released and stored in ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) molecules. ATP is the energy currency of the cell – energy can be used whenever needed. Waste products: Carbon dioxide (CO₂) and Water (H₂O) are formed....

  Forebrain, Midbrain and Hindbrain – Easy NEET Notes 18.4.1 Forebrain Forebrain consists of: Cerebrum Thalamus Hypothalamus These are the major parts of the forebrain. Cerebrum Cerebrum is the largest part of the human brain . It controls: Thinking Intelligence Memory Learning Speech Voluntary actions Cerebral Hemispheres A deep groove divides the cerebrum into: Left cerebral hemisphere Right cerebral hemisphere Corpus Callosum Both hemispheres are connected by nerve fibres called: Corpus callosum It allows communication between the two hemispheres. Cerebral Cortex Outer layer of cerebrum is called the cerebral cortex . It is highly folded to increase surface area. It appears grey due to presence of neuron cell bodies. Therefore, it is called Grey Matter . Functions of Cerebral Cortex It contains: Motor areas → control voluntary movements. Sensory areas → receive sensory impulses. Association areas → involved in: Memory Inte...

  NEET-Level MCQs (Hard) Chapter: Neural Control and Coordination  By- Dr.Sanjaykumar pawar 1. Homeostasis is best defined as: A. Coordination between muscles and bones B. Maintenance of constant internal environment C. Production of hormones by glands D. Transmission of impulses through neurons ✅ Answer: B Explanation: Homeostasis means maintaining stable internal body conditions like temperature, pH, oxygen level, etc. 2. Which of the following systems provides point-to-point rapid coordination? A. Endocrine system B. Circulatory system C. Neural system D. Excretory system ✅ Answer: C Explanation: Neural system uses electrical impulses for fast and precise communication. 3. During physical exercise, increased oxygen demand directly causes: A. Decrease in heartbeat B. Reduced respiration rate C. Increase in respiration rate D. Kidney failure ✅ Answer: C Explanation: More oxygen is needed during exercise, so breathing rate increases. 4. Which s...
