in the following ratio 1 (RR) Red: 2 (Rr) Pink:
1 (rr) White. Here the genotype ratios were
exactly as we would expect in any mendelian
monohybrid cross, but the phenotype ratios had
changed from the 3:1 dominant: recessive ratio.

During follicular phase, the primary follicles in the
ovary grow to become a fully mature Graafian
follicle and simultaneously the endometrium of
uterus regenerates through proliferation. These
changes in the ovary and the uterus are induced by
changes in the levels of pituitary and ovarian
hormones. The secretion of gonadotropins (LH and
FSH) increases gradually during the follicular
phase, and stimulates follicular development as well
as secretion of estrogens by the growing follicles.
Both LH and FSH attain a peak level in the middle
of cycle (about 14th day). Rapid secretion of LH
leading to its maximum level during the mid-cycle
called LH surge induces rupture of Graafian follicle
and thereby the release of ovum (ovulation).

Spermatogenesis starts at the age of puberty due to
significant increase in the
secretion of gonadotropin releasing hormone
(GnRH). The increased levels of GnRH then act at
the anterior pituitary gland and stimulates secretion
of two gonadotropins – luteinising hormone (LH)
and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH). LH acts at
the Leydig cells and stimulates synthesis and
secretion of androgens. Androgens, in turn,
stimulate the process of spermatogenesis. FSH acts
on the Sertoli cells and stimulates secretion of some
factors which help in the process of spermiogenesis.

introducing fishes like Gambusia in ponds that feed
on mosquito larvae, spraying of insecticides in

The signals for parturition originate from the fully
developed foetus and the placenta which induce
mild uterine contractions called foetal ejection
reflex. This triggers release of oxytocin from the
maternal pituitary. Oxytocin acts on the uterine
muscle and causes stronger uterine contractions,
which in turn stimulates further secretion of
oxytocin. The stimulatory reflex between the uterine
contraction and oxytocin secretion continues
resulting in stronger and stronger contractions. This
leads to expulsion of the baby out of the uterus
through the birth canal – parturition. The mammary
glands of the female undergo differentiation during
pregnancy and starts producing milk towards the
end of pregnancy by the process called lactation. A
hormone called prolactin helps in development of
mammary glands and production of milk.

Lactational amenorrhea (absence of menstruation)
method is based on the fact that ovulation and
therefore the cycle do not occur during the period of
intense lactation following parturition because high
levels of prolactin suppress the release of
gonadotropin in new mothers. Therefore, as long as
the mother breast-feeds the child fully, chances of
conception are almost nil. However, this method has
been reported to be effective only upto a maximum
period of six months following parturition.

Entamoeba histolytica is a protozoan parasite in the
large intestine of human which causes amoebiasis
(amoebic dysentery). Symptoms of this disease
include constipation, abdominal pain and cramps,
stools with excess mucous and blood clots.

The mitotic division starts as the zygote moves
through the isthmus of the oviduct called cleavage
towards the uterus and forms 2, 4, 8, 16 daughter
cells called blastomeres. The blastomeres in the
blastocyst are arranged into an outer layer called
trophoblast and an inner group of cells attached to
trophoblast called the inner cell mass.

The blastomeres in the blastocyst are arranged into
an outer layer called trophoblast and an inner group
of cells attached to trophoblast called the inner cell
mass. The trophoblast layer then gets attached to the
endometrium and the inner cell mass gets
differentiated as the embryo.

After getting into the body of the person, the HIV
enters into macrophages where RNA genome of the
virus replicates to form viral DNA with the help of
the enzyme reverse transcriptase. This viral DNA
gets incorporated into host cell’s DNA and directs
the infected cells to produce virus particles. The
macrophages continue to produce virus and in this
way acts like a HIV factory. Simultaneously, HIV
enters into helper T-lymphocytes (TH), replicates
and produce progeny viruses. The progeny viruses
released in the blood attack other helper T-
lymphocytes. This is repeated leading to a
progressive decrease in the number of helper TH
lymphocytes in the body of the infected person.

As per The Medical Termination of Pregnancy
(Amendment) Act, 2017, pregnancy may be
terminated on certain considered grounds within the
first 12 weeks of pregnancy on the opinion of one
registered medical practitioner. If the pregnancy has
lasted more than 12 weeks, but fewer than 24 weeks,
two registered medical practitioners can decide the
fate of pregnancy based on the health of mother and
foetus.

Malarial parasite requires two hosts – human and
mosquitoes – to complete its life cycle. Mosquito is
the primary host because sexual reproduction of
Plasmodium occurs in it and man is the secondary
host because it multiplies asexually within the
human body. The female Anopheles mosquito is the
vector (transmitting agent) too.

The malarial parasites initially multiply within the
liver cells and then attack the red blood cells (RBCs)
resulting in their rupture. The rupture of RBCs is
associated with release of a toxic substance,
haemozoin, which is responsible for the chill and
high fever recurring every three to four days.

Attack on body’s own cell by immune system is
termed as auto immunity. This results in damage to
the body and is called auto-immune disease.
Rheumatoid arthritis which affects many people in
our society is an auto-immune disease. Immune

molecules as well as foreign organisms.

In in vitro fertilization, ova from the wife/donor
(female) and sperms from the husband/donor (male)
are collected. The gametes are fertilized in the
laboratory under simulated conditions therefore
called in vitro fertilization. Zygote up to 8-16 cell
stage can be transferred to fallopian tube by ZIFT
(zygote intra fallopian transfer). IUT or intra uterine
transfer is the transfer of embryo with more than 8
blastomeres into the uterus.
