Answers
Answer:
1) Great philosopher considered as the first zoologist.
Ans:Aristotle
2) The bear like mammal which feeds only on bamboo leaves.
Ans:giant pandas
3) An animal which can swallow objects larger than their heads.
Ans:Snakes have flexible skulls that permit them to swallow large, bulky prey. Contrary to popular perception, snakes do not dislocate their jaws to eat large prey, they just have more complex jaw joints than typical vertebrates do.
4) A jelly like material found in long bones of the body.
Ans:Bone marrow – the jelly-like substance found inside the cavities of some bones (including the pelvis) that produces blood cells. Bone marrow is where blood cells are made. The three different types of blood cell made by bone marrow include: Red blood cells – carry oxygen around the body.
5) The joint found in the neck which lets us turn our head.
Ans:Between C1 and C2, there two synovial joints called the atlanto-axial joint. These joints facilitate rotation at this level. The axis has a superior extension (upward), which is a peg-like bone called the dens. The dens fits within the ring of the atlas and with the axis, allows your head to rotate.
6) Substance that connects skeletal muscles with the bones.
Ans:Tendons
7) The most important and delicate organ in the body.
Ans:The brain
8) Disease caused by the deficiency of Iodine.
Ans:Worldwide, iodine deficiency is the most common cause of thyroid enlargement and goiter (see goiter brochure). Within a goiter, nodules can develop. Patients with a large goiter may experience symptoms of choking, especially when lying down, and difficulty swallowing and breathing.
9) The part of brain which controls the voluntary muscles.
Ans:cerebrum
10) The bottom part of the brain that connects the brain to the spinal cord.
Ans:The brain stem, at the bottom of the brain, connects the cerebrum with the spinal cord. It includes the midbrain, the pons, and the medulla. It controls fundamental body functions such as breathing, eye movements, blood pressure, heartbeat, and swallowing.
