Book Description
Biology is the study of life and living organisms. During the past some years, biology has shifted its focus from the structure of living organisms to looking more at how they work and function. These advances in biological knowledge raise new issues. The present book will help you to understand and in your own way contribute to the biological revolution which is taking place in our lives. This book has been revised and upgraded in accordance with the latest syllabus of Biology prescribed by the Council for Indian School Certificate Examinations, New Delhi. Unique features of this book are : • Written in a very simple, easy-to-understand language, and in a sequential manner. • Content is written in a comprehensive style with well-illustrated* properlylabelled diagrams. • Investigations (Experiments or Activities) related to the topics in each chapter have been given to cement the conceptual understanding. • Text and illustrations contribute to the basic understanding and appreciation of the field of biology. Charts and tables have been given to make the chapters more informative. • Some extra useful information has been provided within boxes to enhance the students' knowledge. • Comprehensive Self-check Questions (Test Yourself) to check the progress of the students and their retention capacity. • At the end of each chapter, Exercises have been given which comprise objective type questions, short answer type questions, long answer type questions and picture-based questions. • QR Codes have been provided at the end of each chapter to facilitate access to the Question Bank (Solved) of that chapter. • ICSE Specimen Question Paper (Solved). • Annual Examination Paper 2019 (Solved). • Five Model Test Papers (Unsolved), as per the latest specimen paper. I hope this book will prove very useful to the students and teachers. Suggestions and constructive criticism for the further improvement of the book would be gratefully acknowledged and incorporated in subsequent editions. -Author
