Diversity of living organisms
Classification of the living organisms (five kingdom classification, major groups and principles of classification within each kingdom).

Systematic and binominal System of nomenclature
Salient features of animal (non-chordates up to phylum level and chordates up to class level) and plant (major groups: Angiosperms up to class) classification, viruses, viroids, lichens Botanical gardens, herbaria, zoological parks and museums.

II. Structural Organisation in Animals and Plants
Tissues in animals and plants.
Morphology, anatomy and functions of different parts of flowering plant: Root, stem, leaf, inflorescence, flower, fruit and seed.

Morphology, anatomy and functions of different systems of an annelid (earthworm), an insect (cockroach) and an amphibian (frog).

III. Cell: Structure and Function
Cell: Cell theory: Prokaryotic and eucaryotic cell, cell well, cell membrane and cell organelles’ (plastids, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi bodies/dictyosomes, ribosome’s, lysosomes, vacuoles, centrioles) and nuclear organization.
