00:003. Sensitivity in Living Organisms
00:04a. How do single-celled organisms respond to changes in their environment?
00:13Single-celled i.e. unicellular organisms respond to changes in their environment.
00:19In single-celled organisms, the whole cytoplasm is sensitive to changes in the environment.
00:26b. What is sensitivity?
00:40The ability of an organism to respond to a stimulus is called sensitivity.
00:45c. What are tropic movements?
01:06The movement of plants towards light and gravity are called tropic movements.
01:30d. How does auxin control tropic responses in plants?
01:39Auxin is a chemical substance which is made in the cells at the tips of the roots and
01:46shoots.
01:47Auxin speeds up the growth in stems and slows down the growth in roots.
01:59e. How do higher animals respond to changes in their environment?
02:11Higher animals respond to changes in their environment by taking appropriate action.
02:16f. What is coordination?
02:32Coordination is how it is brought about in our bodies.
02:35The working together of all the organs and systems of a body is called coordination.
02:52Coordination in the body is brought about by two systems, the nervous system and endocrine system.
