Description

It concerned with discovering psychological processes that make it possible for human beings to acquire and use language. We want to remember, in earlier years (at age five) whether there was nobody who taught on syntactic, phonological, morphological and semantic rules of grammar of language. It is obvious that children do not learn a language by memorizing the sentences of language and storing them rather they have acquired a system of rules that enable them to construct and understand sentences they have never heard or produced before. How do children acquire such intricate system so quickly and effortlessly

EXCHANGE OF RESPIRATORY GASES
Active body cells require lots of oxygen for energy production in aerobic respiration as we learnt in Lecture IV. A major by product of aerobic respiration is carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide dissolves in water to form carbonic acid and hence disturbs acid base balance in the body. Accumulation of carbon dioxide is therefore toxic to the cells as it may cause acidosis. Living cells have mechanisms of intake of oxygen and elimination of carbon dioxide. The two gases are known as respiratory gases. In small organisms such as protozoans the body surface provides an adequate surface area for the exchange of respiratory gases by diffusion. In mammals and other higher animals there are specialized systems for exchange of respiratory gases.

EMBRYONIC GROWTH AND METAMORPHOSES IN INSECTS Trending!
Once an insect hatches from the egg it is usually able to survive on its own, but it is small, wingless, and sexually immature. Its primary role in life is to eat and grow. If it survives, it will periodically outgrow and replace its exoskeleton (a process known as moulting). • In many species, there are other physical changes that also occur as the insect gets older (e.g., growth of wings and development of external genitalia)

Subphylum Uniramia Trending!
Five classes of Uniramia are recognized: 1. Class Diplopoda (millipedes) 2. Class Chilopoda (centipedes) 3. Class Symphyla (sympylids) 4. Class Pauropoda (pauropods) 5. Class Insecta (insects) Centipedes, millipedes, symphylids and pauropods are collectively called myriapodous arthropods (Myriapods). All have long trunks with many segments and appendages, most of which are walking legs.

Insect Hormones Trending!
Insect Hormones • A hormone is a chemical signal sent from cells in one part of an organism to cells in another part (or parts) of the same individual. They are often regarded as chemical messengers. • Typically produced in very small quantities, but cause profound changes in their target cells • Their effect may be stimulatory or inhibitory • In some cases, a single hormone may have multiple targets and cause different effects in each target • Examples of processes controlled by hormones include moulting, metamorphosis, oocyte development (vitellogenesis), colour change and diurnal rhythms of activity
