In the central nervous system, axons are myelinated by oligodendrocytes, thus lack neurilemma. The myelin sheaths of oligodendrocytes do not have neurilemma because excess cytoplasm is directed centrally toward the oligodendrocyte cell body. Neurilemma serves a protective function for peripheral nerve fibers. The central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord. It is referred to as “central” because it combines information from the entire body and coordinates activity across the whole organism.

Fission means division. During asexual reproduction, the parent cell divides into two or more cells. Unicellular organisms show different patterns of cell division according to their cell structure. For example, an amoeba can divide itself into two at any plane but the division in euglena is longitudinal.
Fission can be of two types, namely, binary fission and multiple fission. In binary fission, parent cell divides into two equal halves called daughter cells. Daughter cells are identical to each other and to their parent cell. Organisms like the amoeba, bacteria, euglena, etc., exhibit binary fission.
During multiple fission, organism divides itself into numerous daughter cells. Examples of multiple fission are sporozoans and algae.

The plants obtained by micropropagation are called somaclones because they are genetically identical to each other as well as to parent plant.

Mendel selected garden pea for his experiment for the following reasons-
Easy to Cultivate: Pea plant (Pisum sativum) was easy to cultivate. It grew well in his garden.
Hermaphrodite: Its flowers were hermaphrodite I.e. pea plant have both male and female sexual organs.
Cross-fertilization (Cross-Pollination) Easily Controlled: It was normally self-fertilizing (self-pollinating) that is the fertilization of plants and some invertebrate animals by their own pollen or sperm rather than that of another individual, but could also be cross fertilized (cross-pollinated) that is the transfer of pollen grains from an anther of a flower of one plant to a stigma of a flower of another plant of the same species.
Short Generation Time: As the time gap between generations was short, Mendel could raise many generations of pea within a short time. This is one of the main reason for choosing Pea plant (Pisum sativum).
Many Distinct Traits: Pea had many sharply distinct. its each trait had two clear cut alternative forms or varieties: e.g. seed shape had a round or wrinkled phenotype, plant height was either tall or short, seed color could be yellow or green etc. Mendel called them pair of contrasting traits. He focused on seven such contrasting pair of traits.

Some molecules produced by a certain living organisms perform functions in the body of other organisms and modify the metabolism.
Hence, they are called bioactive molecules. Statins, and cyclosporin-A are bioactive molecules.

Question: Why do algae and fungi shift to sexual mode of reproduction just before the onset of adverse conditions?
Answer
Organisms such as fungi and algae switch to sexual mode of reproduction during adverse conditions because sexual reproduction brings variation into the individuals, some of which might help the individuals to adapt to the changed conditions and survive. This ensures the continuity of species.

Monocarpic plants are those that flower only once in their lifetime. Once they flower, they produce seeds, and then die off. Examples - thouch-me-not pant, ragweed, winter wheat, etc.

(ii) Temperature rises up to 106°F and patient feels burning hot, inter headache, faster breathing rate and heart beat.
(iii) 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.
(iv) Enlargement of spleen and anaemia occurs.
