[NCERT Exemplar]\nAnswer:<br \/>\nEdward Jenner discovered vaccine for the first time. Small pox and polio can be prevented by using vaccines.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Do_we_Fall_Ill_Class_9_Extra_Questions_Short_Answer_Questions-I\"><\/span>Why Do we Fall Ill Class 9 Extra Questions Short Answer Questions-I<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Question 1.<br \/>\nWhat is a balanced diet?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nA balanced diet is the one which contains a variety of foods in such quantities and proportions that the need for energy, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, water and roughage is adequately met for maintaining health, vitality and general well being.<\/p>\n<p>Question 2.<br \/>\nWhy is immune system essential for our health? [NCERT Exemplar]\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe immune system of our body is a defence mechanism to fight against pathogenic microbes. It has cells that are specialised to kill infecting microbes and keep our body healthy. If the body\u2019s immune system is strong, it can easily fight pathogens, keeping us healthy.<\/p>\n<p>Question 3.<br \/>\nWhy is mother\u2019s milk best for babies?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nMother\u2019s milk is rich in proteins and other nutrients. It provides a complete diet to the baby. Intake of mother\u2019s milk increases body weight, body muscles and subcutaneous fat.<\/p>\n<p>Question 4.<br \/>\nWhat are the two basic principles of prevention of infectious diseases?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe two basic principles of prevention of infectious diseases are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Prevention from exposure to infectious microbes.<\/li>\n<li>Provision of proper nutrition to keep the immune system in a healthy state.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Question 5.<br \/>\nWhat is the mechanism of action of antibiotics?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nAntibiotics are chemical substances obtained from some microbes, which stop the growth of specific kind of pathogens. They block certain biochemical pathways important for the lifecycle of pathogen. For example, penicillin does not allow cell wall formation in some bacteria. It blocks chemical reaction required for cell wall formation.<\/p>\n<p>Question 6.<br \/>\n\u2018Public cleanliness is important for individual health\u2019. Comment.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe garbage thrown in open places, overflowing drains or sewer water, stagnant water, etc. are the places where disease-causing microbes multiply and mosquitoes and flies breed. These mosquitoes and flies act as carriers of disease-causing microbes. As a result, diseases may spread in the community and affect individual health. Thus, public cleanliness is important for individual health.<\/p>\n<p>Question 7.<br \/>\nWhy is vaccination considered a prevention of diseases?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nVaccines induce a specific immune response in the body. This response also produce memory cells which persist in the body even in the absence of pathogen. If the pathogen attacks the body again, the immune system with the help of memory cells recognise it and destroy it before it causes the disease.<\/p>\n<p>Question 8.<br \/>\nWhy is social equality necessary for individual health?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nIf the mind is cheerful and happy, people are not prone to tensions. Moreover, as they are not disturbed, they will take care about doing anything which affects their health. On the other hand, if people are socially disturbed and unsafe, they cannot be happy and healthy. So, social equality is necessary for individual health.<\/p>\n<p>Question 9.<br \/>\nWhy are good economic conditions needed for individual health?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nFirst of all, for good health, proper and sufficient food is necessary. This food can be obtained only by spending money, for which the individual has to earned. So, opportunity to work and earn have to be made available for which there must be good economic conditions in the society.<\/p>\n<p>Question 10.<br \/>\nDescribe congenital disease.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nCongenital disease is the one that is present in an individual from birth. This may be due to genetic abnormality, metabolic disorders or malfunctioning of any body organ. These are permanent and are generally not easily curable. These are passed to the children from parents.<\/p>\n<p>Question 11.<br \/>\nDescribe deficiency diseases.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nDeficiency diseases are caused due to deficiency of certain nutrients in our diet like proteins, minerals and vitamins. It is a type of non-communicable disease. Examples: Kwashiorkor, marasmus, anaemia, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Question 12.<br \/>\nDescribe degenerative diseases.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nDegenerative diseases are caused due to malfunctioning of body organs or degeneration of tissues in old age. It is a type of non-communicable disease. Example: Kidney failure is due to improper functioning of kidneys, cancer is due to uncontrolled growth of tissues in any part of the body, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Question 13.<br \/>\nWhy is it considered important to study the different categories of infectious agents?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe infectious agents have been categorised, as these categories are important factors in deciding the kind of treatment to be used to treat the diseases caused by them.<\/p>\n<p>Question 14.<br \/>\nWhy there is no use of giving vaccine of hepatitis A virus?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nAs the majority of children in many parts of India are exposed to the virus causing hepatitis A, they are already immune to hepatitis A by the time they are five years old. So, there is no use of giving vaccines.<\/p>\n<p>Question 15.<br \/>\nWhy are antibiotics not effective for viral disease? [NCERT Exemplar]\nAnswer:<br \/>\nAntibiotics act by inhibiting the biosynthetic pathways. This way they eventually die. However, viruses do not have components for the biosynthetic pathways. Instead, they utilise the components of the host body to complete their life cycles. Therefore, antibiotics are not effective against viruses.<\/p>\n<p>Question 16.<br \/>\n(i) Which bacterium causes peptic ulcers?<br \/>\n(ii) Who discovered the above pathogen for the first time? [NCERTExemplar]\nAnswer:<br \/>\n(i) Helicobacter pylori.<br \/>\n(ii) Marshall and Warren.<\/p>\n<p>Question 17.<br \/>\nWhat do you mean by disease symptoms? Explain giving two examples. [NCERTExemplar]\nAnswer:<br \/>\nWhen the functioning or the appearance of one or more systems of the body will change for the worse, it gives certain abnormal signs of the disease. These visual changes in human beings are called symptoms. Symptoms give indication of the presence of a particular disease.<br \/>\nExamples:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cough is the symptom of lung infection.<\/li>\n<li>Lesions on the skin are the symptoms of chicken pox.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Question 18.<br \/>\nBecoming exposed to or infected with an infectious microbe does not necessarily mean developing noticeable disease. Explain. [NCERT Exemplar]\nAnswer:<br \/>\nBecause of strong immune system, our body is normally fighting off microbes. We have cells which are specialised to kill the pathogenic microbes. These cells are active when infecting microbes enter the body and if they are successful in removing the pathogen, we remain disease-free. So even if we are exposed to infectious microbes, it is not necessary that we suffer from diseases.<\/p>\n<p>Question 19.<br \/>\n(i) Name two diseases caused by Protozoa.<br \/>\n(ii) What are their causal organisms? [NCERT Exemplar]\nAnswer:<br \/>\n(i) Sleeping sickness caused by Trypanosoma and malaria by Plasmodium.<br \/>\n(ii) Kala-azar caused by Leishmania.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Do_we_Fall_Ill_Class_9_Extra_Questions_Short_Answer_Questions-II\"><\/span>Why Do we Fall Ill Class 9 Extra Questions Short Answer Questions-II<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Question 1.<br \/>\nWhat are the constituents of a balanced diet?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nConstituents of a balanced diet are as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Carbohydrate: It provides 50-70% of total energy intake.<\/li>\n<li>Fat: For an adult, fat should provide 20% of total energy intake. Children require more fat so as to suffice 50% of the total energy intake.<\/li>\n<li>Proteins: Protein intake should be about 15-20% of the total daily energy intake.<\/li>\n<li>Vitamins and minerals<\/li>\n<li>Water<\/li>\n<li>Roughage<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Question 2.<br \/>\nWrite four common symptoms of malaria.<br \/>\nAnswer:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Sudden appearance of fever with pain and sensation of cold shivering.<\/li>\n<li>Body temperature rises up to 106\u00b0F and patient becomes burning hot. He or she experiences intense headache, faster breathing rate and heart beat.<\/li>\n<li>Fever later comes down with profuse sweating. This occurs either daily at a particular time or is repeated every third or fourth day depending upon the species of the parasite.<\/li>\n<li>Enlargement of spleen and anaemia occurs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Question 3.<br \/>\nWrite the distinct species of malarial parasite in man.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nMalaria in man is caused by four distinct species of malarial parasites:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Plasmodium vivax: incubation period in human is 8-17 days.<\/li>\n<li>P. falciparum: incubation period in human is 9-14 days.<\/li>\n<li>P. malariae: incubation period in human is 18-40 days.<\/li>\n<li>P. ovale: incubation period in human is 16-18 days.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Question 4.<br \/>\nWhat is the difference between being \u2018healthy\u2019 and \u2018disease-free\u2019?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nA person is said to be healthy when:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>All the organs and systems of the body are intact and working well.<\/li>\n<li>One is mentally balanced, free from anxieties and tensions.<\/li>\n<li>One is socially well-adjusted in the family, friends and society.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Whereas being \u2018disease-free\u2019 means absence of any body discomfort. Thus, being healthy is not just freedom from disease.<\/p>\n<p>Question 5.<br \/>\nWhat are the immediate and contributory causes of diseases? Explain it with the example of a child suffering from diarrhoea.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nImmediate cause of a disease is the primary factor causing a disease. Contributory causes are factors, which do not cause the disease themselves but provide conditions for the disease to occur. Virus causing diarrhoea is the immediate cause. Contaminated drinking water and lack of resistance due to under-nourishment are the contributory causes.<\/p>\n<p>Question 6.<br \/>\nWrite the symptoms when following organs are targeted by microbes.<br \/>\n(a) Lungs<br \/>\n(b) Liver<br \/>\n(c) Brain<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\n(a) Lungs \u2014 cough, breathlessness<br \/>\n(b) Liver \u2014jaundice<br \/>\n(c) Brain \u2014 headache, vomiting, fits.<\/p>\n<p>Question 7.<br \/>\nEnlist the cause of diseases.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nDisease may be caused due to any of the following reasons:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>infection<\/li>\n<li>Lack of nutritive and sufficient food<\/li>\n<li>Poor health<\/li>\n<li>Lack of public services<\/li>\n<li>Hereditary reasons.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Question 8.<br \/>\nDescribe health care.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nHealth care is provided to vast majority of poor, rural and urban people through effective health care centres. Health care services provide different types of care at primary health care centre and \u2018 secondary health care centers.<br \/>\nPrimary health care is provided by the primary health centres established in small towns and villages, through the agency of health workers, village health guide and trained dhayas.<br \/>\nSecondary health care deals with more complex problems. It is generally provided in district hospitals and community health centers.<\/p>\n<p>Question 9.<br \/>\nWhat determines the severity of disease manifestation?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe number of disease-causing microbes in the body decide the severity of disease manifestation. If the number of microbes is very small, the disease manifestations may be minor and even go unnoticed. But if the number of microbes is large, the disease can be severe. In fact if the number of microbes is very large, the disease can even be fatal. Our immune system is a major factor that determines the number of microbes surviving in the body.<\/p>\n<p>Question 10.<br \/>\nDifferentiate between communicable and non-communicable diseases.<br \/>\nAnswer:<\/p>\n<table border=\"2\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"288\"><strong>Communicable Diseases<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"288\"><strong>Non-communicable Diseases<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"288\">1.

It is caused by Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). HIV attacks helper T-lymphocytes, thus causing cell-mediated immunodeficiency, which makes the body more prone to various infections.<\/p>\n<p>Question 12.<br \/>\nName fat-soluble vitamins and diseases caused by them.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nFat-soluble vitamins include vitamin A, D, E and K.<\/p>\n<table border=\"2\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"139\"><strong>Vitamin<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"438\"><strong>Deficiency Diseases<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"139\">A<\/td>\n<td width=\"438\">Xerophthalmia, night-blindness, keratomalacia<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"139\">D<\/td>\n<td width=\"438\">Rickets in children, osteomalacia in adults<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"139\">E<\/td>\n<td width=\"438\">Anaemia<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"139\">K<\/td>\n<td width=\"438\">Bleeding disease<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Question 13.<br \/>\nWhat are the causes and symptoms of goitre?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nGoitre is caused due to deficiency of iodine in the diet.<br \/>\nSymptoms of goitre are as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Abnormal growth of thyroid gland situated in the front part of the neck.<\/li>\n<li>Increase in body weight due to accumulation of fat and retention of water in the body.<\/li>\n<li>Increased rate of spontaneous abortion and still birth.<\/li>\n<li>Disorder in nervous system. Iodine deficiency in childhood causes reduced functioning of the thyroid gland resulting in retarded growth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Question 14.<br \/>\nWhat are the sources of iodine? What are the prevention and control methods of goitre.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nSources of iodine: T he best sources of iodine are sea foods and cod liver oil. A smaller amount of iodine occurs in milk, leafy vegetables, cereals and meat, etc. Iodised salt contains sufficient amount of iodine.<\/p>\n<p>Prevention and control of goitre: It can be prevented by providing iodine in the diet in the form of iodised salts, such as potassium iodate and potassium iodide. These can be added in drinking water or in common salt used daily. Intra-muscular injection of iodised oil or sodium iodide tablets developed by Indian Council of Medical Research is quite effective in curing goitre.<\/p>\n<p>Question 15.<br \/>\nWhat are the indirect modes of transmission of infectious diseases?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nIndirect transmission occurs through flies, food and fluid, etc. Infectious agents are transmitted through water and food including vegetable, fruits, milk, milk products, ice, blood serum, plasma, etc. Their transmission is vehicle-borne. Some examples are as follows:<\/p>\n<table border=\"2\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"248\">1. Hepatitis A virus<\/td>\n<td width=\"307\">Multiplies in water<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"248\">2.

How is malaria transmitted?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Answer:<br \/>\nThe diseases caused by various microorganisms are as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Protozoa: Malaria, amoebiosis, dysentery, giardiasis, kala-azar, etc.<\/li>\n<li>Virus: AIDS, polio, dengue, rabies, chicken pox, influenza, etc.<\/li>\n<li>Bacteria: Pneumonia, diphtheria, tuberculosis, meningitis, leprosy, typhoid, tetanus, syphilis, etc.<\/li>\n<li>Fungi: Fungi mainly causes skin diseases and food poisoning.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Malaria is caused by a parasite found in female Anopheles mosquitoes. When the mosquitoes carrying the malarial parasite bite a person, the parasite enters the blood stream and the person suffers from malaria.<\/p>\n<p>Question 18.<br \/>\nWhat are the three limitations which one has to face while dealing with an infectious disease?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe three limitations which one has to face while dealing with an infectious disease are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The body functions are damaged drastically and may never recover completely if not cared.<\/li>\n<li>The treatment will take time, which means that someone suffering from a disease is likely to be bed-ridden for sometime.<\/li>\n<li>The person suffering from an infectious disease can serve as a source from where the infection may further spread to other people.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Question 19.<br \/>\nWhat is immunity? Explain natural and acquired immunity.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nImmunity means the resistance of the body to a disease. It is due to the presence of antibodies in our body against the disease-causing microorganisms known as antigens. When these antigens enter our body, antibodies are formed which prevent the disease.<\/p>\n<p>Natural immunity means that a person has these antibodies since birth, e.g., whenever antigens, say of cholera enter the body, the person will not suffer from the disease.<\/p>\n<p>Acquired immunity means when a person suffers from a disease once, antibodies for these particular disease-causing antigens will be formed in the body and he will not get the same disease again.<\/p>\n<p>Question 20.<br \/>\nGive an example where tissue specificity of the infection leads to very general seeming effects.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nWe can see the tissue specificity of the infection leading to very general seeming effects in case of HIV infection. The HIV attacks the immune system via the lymph nodes. From here it spreads all over the body and damages its functions. Because of this, the body becomes prone to various diseases as it cannot fight off even the minor infections which otherwise would not have lasted longer.<\/p>\n<p>For example, even a small cold can become pneumonia and a minor gut infection may lead to a severe case of diarrhoea with blood loss.<br \/>\nIn the same way, other infections kill people that are suffering from, e.g., HIV-AIDS.<br \/>\nThe tissue specificity of the infection (HIV-AIDS) is lymph nodes. General seeming effects are loss of immunity even to minor diseases or infections that ultimately lead to the death of the patient.<\/p>\n<p>Question 21.<br \/>\nWhat precautions will you take to justify \u201cprevention is better than cure\u201d? [NCERT Exemplar]\nAnswer:<br \/>\nFollowing precautions should be taken for prevention of diseases:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Maintaining hygienic conditions.<\/li>\n<li>Awareness about the disease and its causal organism.<\/li>\n<li>Intake of a balanced diet.<\/li>\n<li>Regular medical check-up.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Question 22.<br \/>\nGive any four factors necessary for a healthy person.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nFor a healthy person it is necessary that<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>the surrounding environment should be clean. Air and water-borne diseases should not spread.<\/li>\n<li>personal hygiene is maintained to prevent infectious diseases.<\/li>\n<li>proper, sufficient nourishment and food is available for good immune system of our body.<\/li>\n<li>body is immunised against severe diseases.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Do_we_Fall_Ill_Class_9_Extra_Questions_Long_Answer_Questions\"><\/span>Why Do we Fall Ill Class 9 Extra Questions Long Answer Questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Question 1.<br \/>\nDiscuss the causes, symptoms, preventive measures and treatment of AIDS.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nAIDS is caused by a retrovirus, HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus). It is transmitted from an infected to a healthy person through sexual contact, blood transfusion, use of infected needle or blade. Also, it may get transmitted from infected mother to her foetus.<br \/>\n<strong>Symptoms:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Inflammation in lymph glands.<\/li>\n<li>Loss of weight and sweating during night.<\/li>\n<li>Bleeding and fever.<\/li>\n<li>Severe damage to the brain which may even lead to loss of memory.

Describe the various causes of diseases.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nDisease is defined as a condition of the body or a part of it in which its normal functioning gets disturbed. The main causes of diseases are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Biological agents which are disease-causing microorganisms or pathogens like viruses, bacteria, fungi, protozoans , etc.<\/li>\n<li>Physical agents like heat, cold, radiation, humidity, pressure, electricity, sound, etc.<\/li>\n<li>Mechanical agents such as chronic friction as well as other mechanical forces that cause injuries, trauma and fractures, etc.<\/li>\n<li>Chemical agents which are of two types:\n<ul>\n<li>Endogenous chemical agents which are formed in the body, like urea, uric acid, etc.<\/li>\n<li>Exogenous chemical agents which enter the body of the individual from outside, like metals, spores and pollens, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Inherited diseases: Some diseases are because of the hereditary reasons, disturbance in chromosomes or genes.<\/li>\n<li>Social agents which may cause mental disorders.<\/li>\n<li>Deficiency diseases are caused by insufficiency, absence or excess of a nutrient necessary for health.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Question 3.<br \/>\nDiscuss types of anaemia with their symptoms.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nIron deficiency in the body results in anaemia. Nutritional anaemia is a disease syndrome caused by malnutrition. It is of two types:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Microcytic anaemia<\/li>\n<li>Pernicious anaemia<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Microcytic anaemia: It occurs due to deficiency of iron in human diet.<br \/>\nSymptoms:<br \/>\nAn anaemic person:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>becomes pale, weak and tired.<\/li>\n<li>loses appetite.<\/li>\n<li>loses body weight.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Pernicious anaemia: It is caused due to deficiency of vitamin B<sub>12<\/sub>.<br \/>\nSymptoms: Patient becomes paler, shortness of breath after slight exertion, loss of weight, weakness, etc. It may be fatal.<\/p>\n<p>Question 4.<br \/>\nWhy is AIDS considered to be a \u2018syndrome\u2019 and not a disease? [NCERT Exemplar]\nAnswer:<br \/>\nAIDS causing virus\u2014HIV that comes into the body via the sexual organs or blood transfusion will spread all over the body through lymph nodes. The virus damages the immune system of the body and due to this the body can no longer fight off many minor infections. Instead, every small disease like cold can become severe pneumonia or minor gut infection can become severe diarrhoea with blood loss. The effect of disease becomes very severe and complex, at times killing the person suffering from AIDS. Hence, there is no specific disease symptom for AIDS but it results in a complex disease. Therefore, it is known as a syndrome.<\/p>\n<p>Question 5.<br \/>\nWhat are the essential components of primary health care?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nPrimary health care includes the following essential components:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Providing education concerning prevailing health problems and methods of preventing and controlling them.<\/li>\n<li>Provision of food supply and proper nutrition.<\/li>\n<li>Adequate supply of safe and clean drinking water and basic sanitation.<\/li>\n<li>Provision of maternal and child health care.<\/li>\n<li>Immunisation against major infectious diseases.<\/li>\n<li>Prevention and control of local epidemic diseases.<\/li>\n<li>Appropriate treatment of common diseases and injuries.<\/li>\n<li>Provision of essential drugs.<\/li>\n<li>Promoting health education in schools and colleges.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Question 6.<br \/>\nDescribe influenza with its symptoms and prevention.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nInfluenza or flu is an acute respiratory tract infection caused by influenza virus. It is of three types\u2014 A, B and C. Influenza virus A and B have caused epidemics throughout the world. Influenza virus C occurs sporadically in the form of small outbreak. Major reservoirs of influenza virus are animals and wild birds. Influenza is spread mainly from person to person by droplet infection created by sneezing, coughing or talking and enters the respiratory tract. Its incubation period is 18 to 72 hours.<br \/>\n<strong>Symptoms:<\/strong> Fever, chills, aches and pain, coughing and weakness.<br \/>\n<strong>Prevention:<\/strong> Sufferers should cover their faces with handkerchief while coughing and sneezing.

[NCERT Exemplar]\nAnswer:<br \/>\n(a) Food is necessary for the growth and development of the body. Balanced diet provides raw materials and required energy in appropriate amount through nutrients like proteins,<br \/>\ncarbohydrates, fats, minerals, etc. which in turn are essential for the proper growth and functioning of a healthy body.<br \/>\n(b) Health is a state of being well enough to function physically, mentally and socially and these conditions in turn depend upon the surrounding environmental conditions, e.g., if there are unhygienic conditions in surrounding area, it is likely that we might get infected or diseased.<br \/>\n(c) This is so because many water-borne diseases and insect vectors flourish in stagnant water which cause diseases in human beings.<br \/>\n(d) Human beings live in societies and different localities like villages or cities, which determine the social and physical environment and hence both are to be kept in harmony. Public cleanliness is important for individual health. For better living conditions money is required. We need good food for healthy body and for this we have to earn. For the treatment of diseases also, one has to be in good economic condition.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Do_we_Fall_Ill_Class_9_Extra_Questions_HOTS_Higher_Order_Thinking_Skills\"><\/span>Why Do we Fall Ill Class 9 Extra Questions HOTS (Higher Order Thinking Skills)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Question 1.<br \/>\nWhy is making anti-viral drugs more difficult than making anti- bacterial medicines?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nBecause viruses have very few biochemical mechanisms of their own.<\/p>\n<p>Question 2.<br \/>\nIf you live in an overcrowded and poorly ventilated house, you may suffer from which of the following diseases?<br \/>\n(a) Cancer<br \/>\n(b) AIDS<br \/>\n(c) Air-borne diseases<br \/>\n(d) Cholera<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\n(c) Air-borne diseases<\/p>\n<p>Question 3.<br \/>\nName the target organs for the following diseases<br \/>\n(a) Hepatitis targets _________.<br \/>\n(b) Fits or unconsciousness targets _________.<br \/>\n(c) Pneumonia targets _________.<br \/>\n(d) Fungal disease targets _________.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\n(a) Liver<br \/>\n(b) Brain<br \/>\n(c) Lungs<br \/>\n(d) Skin<\/p>\n<p>Question 4.<br \/>\nClassify the following diseases as infectious or non-infectious.<br \/>\n(a) AIDS<br \/>\n(b) Tuberculosis<br \/>\n(c) Cholera<br \/>\n(d) High blood pressure<br \/>\n(e) Heart disease<br \/>\n(f) Pneumonia<br \/>\n(g) Cancer<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\n(a)Infectious<br \/>\n(b) Infectious<br \/>\n(c) Infectious<br \/>\n(d) Non-infectious<br \/>\n(e) Non-infectious<br \/>\n(f) Infectious<br \/>\n(g) Non-infectious<\/p>\n<p>Question 5.<br \/>\nWhy do some children fall ill more frequently than others living in the same locality? [NCERT Exemplar]\nAnswer:<br \/>\nFrequency of falling ill depends on the strength of the body\u2019s immune system to fight common pathogens. Due to poor immune system, some children fall ill frequently. Balanced diet and proper nutrition for healthy body is required to have a strong immune system.<\/p>\n<p>Question 6.<br \/>\nWhy should we always cover our nose while sneezing?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nMicrobes present in our lungs and respiratory tracts can spread through tiny droplets thrown out during sneezing. Anyone standing close-by can inhale air containing these droplets and get infection. Therefore, we should always cover our nose while sneezing.<\/p>\n<p>Question 7.<br \/>\nIf you go to hospital to meet your friend suffering from malaria, what are the chances of malaria spreading to you and your friends?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nMalaria is an infectious disease caused by a protozoan and is spread by Anopheles mosquito vector.
