Vegetative propagation The syllabus for Biology in the AIIMS entrance exam may vary slightly from year to year, but generally, it covers topics from the CBSE (Central Board of Secondary Education) curriculum for Class 11 and Class 12. One of the topics included in the syllabus is vegetative propagation. Here’s an overview of the concept:…
Fragmentation Fragmentation is a process of asexual reproduction commonly observed in plants, certain animals, and even some fungi. It involves the breaking up of the parent organism into several fragments, each of which can develop into a new individual. In the context of the AIIMS (All India Institute of Medical Sciences) Biology syllabus, fragmentation is…
Gemmule Gemmules, in a different context, are reproductive structures found in certain organisms. Gemmules are asexual reproductive structures produced by some invertebrates, such as sponges (phylum Porifera). In sponges, gemmules serve as a means of survival during unfavorable environmental conditions. They are typically formed by specialized cells called archaeocytes. Gemmules are composed of a cluster…
Budding The Biology syllabus for AIIMS generally covers a wide range of topics from various subdisciplines of Biology. Here is a brief outline of the key topics that are typically included: This is just a broad overview of the Biology syllabus for AIIMS. It’s essential to consult the official AIIMS website or the specific resources…
Sporulation In the biology syllabus of AIIMS (All India Institute of Medical Sciences), the topic of sporulation is not explicitly mentioned. However, sporulation is a process that occurs in certain organisms, particularly bacteria and fungi, where they produce spores as a means of reproduction or survival under unfavorable conditions. Here’s a general overview of sporulation…
Binary fission Binary fission is a form of asexual reproduction commonly observed in single-celled organisms such as bacteria. It is a simple and rapid process through which a single parent cell divides into two daughter cells, each having an identical genetic material as the parent cell. Binary fission involves several steps, as described below: Binary…
Reproduction in organisms which is sexual and asexual Here is a crash course on the Biology syllabus topic “Reproduction in Organisms,” covering both sexual and asexual modes of reproduction. Reproduction: Reproduction is the biological process by which new individuals of the same species are produced. It ensures the continuation of a species from one generation…
Iron The AIIMS (All India Institute of Medical Sciences) entrance exam syllabus for Chemistry does not specifically mention an in-depth study of iron. However, the subject of iron and its compounds is an important topic in chemistry. Here is a brief overview of the relevant aspects of iron that you might come across in your…
Extraction of aluminum The extraction of aluminum is an important topic in chemistry, particularly in the field of metallurgy. It involves the process of obtaining pure aluminum metal from its ore, which is primarily bauxite. The extraction of aluminum is typically carried out through the Bayer process followed by the Hall-Héroult process. Here is a…
Oxidation The Chemistry syllabus for AIIMS (All India Institute of Medical Sciences) includes various topics, and one of them is oxidation. Oxidation is a chemical process that involves the loss of electrons or an increase in oxidation state of an atom, ion, or molecule. In the context of organic chemistry, oxidation refers to the addition…
