al Reproduction in Flowering Plants:
development of male and female gametophytes; pollination - types, agencies and examples; out breeding devices; pollen-pistil interaction; d
ents- development of endosperm and embryo, development of seed and formation of fruit; special modes- apomixis, parthenocarpy, polyemb
d dispersal and fruit formation.
 n Reproduction:
 productive systems; microscopic anatomy of testis and ovary; gametogenesis-spermatogenesis and oogenesis; menstrual cycle; fertilisation
 blastocyst formation, implantation; pregnancy and placenta formation (elementary idea);
ntary idea); lactation (elementary idea).
oductive Health:
ive health and prevention of Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs); birth control - need and methods, contraception and medical termination
sis; infertility and assisted reproductive technologies - IVF, ZIFT, GIFT (elementary idea for general awareness).
orary mount to observe pollen germination.
  to pollination by different agencies (wind, insects, birds).
 on on stigma through a permanent slide or scanning electron micrograph
f stages of gamete development, i.e., T.S. of testis and T.S. of ovary through permanent slides (from grasshopper/mice).
hrough permanent slides (Mammalian).
 ation - emasculation, tagging andbagging.
iples of Inheritance and Variation:
 ion: Mendelian inheritance; deviations from Mendelism – incomplete dominance, co-dominance, multiple alleles and inheritance of blood gro
 polygenic inheritance; chromosome theory of inheritance; chromosomes and genes; Sex determination - in humans, birds and honey bee; li
 inked inheritance - haemophilia, colour blindness; Mendelian disorders in humans - thalassemia; chromosomal disorders in humans; Down's
elter's syndromes.
ular Basis of Inheritance:
 material and DNA as genetic material; Structure of DNA and RNA; DNA packaging; DNA replication; Central Dogma; transcription, genetic co
nd regulation - lac operon; Genome, Human and rice genome projects; DNA fingerprinting.
ion:
gical evolution and evidences for biological evolution (paleontology, comparative anatomy, embryology and molecular evidences); Darwin's c
 heory of evolution; mechanism of evolution - variation (mutation and recombination) and natural selection with examples, types of natural se
 ift; Hardy
ple; adaptive radiation; human evolution.

bud cell or grasshopper testis through permanent slides.
an Health and Disease:
es causing human diseases (malaria, dengue, chikungunya, filariasis, ascariasis, typhoid, pneumonia, common cold, amoebiasis, ring worm)
mmunology - vaccines; cancer, HIV and AIDS; Adolescence - drug and alcohol abuse.
robes in Human Welfare:
