Question: what is the difference between biodiversity and ecosysterm?

Answer:   Biodiversity refers to the variety in the number and type of organisms found in a given habitat.
Ecosystem is a group of organisms which not only interact with each other but also with their physical environment.

Question:  What are the difference between national park and wildlife sanctuary?

Answer:

National Park
Wildlife sanctuary
it protect both plants and animals
it protect only animals
Tickets or permissions are required to enter into a national park.
Tickets or permissions are not required to visit a wildlife sanctuary
A national park has a definite boundary.
A wildlife sanctuary does not have a specific boundary
Example: Jim Corbett national park (Gujarat)
Example: Krishna wildlife sanctuary (Andhra Pradesh)

Question:  What is the difference between biosphere reserves sanctuaries national parks and zoos?

Answer:  Biosphere Reserves are large areas for conservation of biodiversity, which include both wildlife and plants. 

Wildlife Sanctuary is an area which is free from disturbances from human activities, and is devoted for the conservation and protection of only wildlife. 

National Parks are those reserved areas where no human activity is allowed at all and the purpose of a national park is to preserve the plants, animals, landscape, and the historic objects of that area. 

A zoo or zoological park is a facility in which animals are confined within enclosures, displayed to the public, and in which they may also be bred.

Question:  What is conservation? How is it different from preservation?

Answer:  Conservation means controlled and sustainable use of natural resources whether they are renewable or non renewable. On the other hand preservation refers to the, attempts made to maintain in their present condition and protect them from any harm or decay.

Question:  How does deforestation reduce rainfall on the one hand and lead to floods on the other?

Answer:  When we cut trees, the water that was going to the atmosphere through transpiration is no more making clouds. so, rainfall does not occur.
The roots of the trees are able to hold water. When we cut trees, the flow of water cannot be avoided. Therefore, in this way deforestation leads to floods.

Question:  What are the possible causes of extinction of animal species?

Answer:  Causes for the extinction of species are:-
1. Sudden change in the climatic conditions due to deforestation.
2. Acid rain.
3. Diseases/epidemic.
4. Changes in the sea levels and currents.
5. Exposure to Cosmic radiations.

Question:  On what basis rare animals classified on the basis of IUCN?

Answer:  IUCN (The International Union for Conservation of Nature) is a global environmental organisation that works to conserve natural environment.
Rare species (R) of animals are classified as rare on the basis of their present and past distribution, decline in the population with course of time, abundance and quality of their natural habitat and their potential to reproduce.  Rare species have small population and are scattered in the world. For example- Golden cat.
Question:  What is flora and fauna?

Answer: The term flora is used to denote plants of a particular region or period. Similarly, the species of animals are referred to as fauna. It includes trees in the forests and grasslands as well as trees grown by humans. It includes amphibians, reptiles, mammals, small insects and worms

Class 10 Metal and Non MetalsChapter 03 NCERT Activity Solutions

X Class 10 NCERT Activity Explanation Class 10 Metals and Non Metals Activity 3.1 Page No. 37 Take samples of iron, copper, aluminium and magnesium. Note the appearance of each sample. They have a shining surface. Clean the surface of each sample by rubbing them with sand paper and note their appearance again. They become more shiny. => Freshly cut Metal have shiny surface Activity 3.2 Page No. 37 Take small pieces of iron, copper, aluminium, and magnesium. Try to cut these metals with a sharp knife and note your observations. They are very hard to cut. Hold a piece of sodium metal with a pair of tongs and try to cut it with a knife. Sodium can be cut easily with knife. Hence K and Na are soft metal cut with knife Activity 3.3 Page No. 38 Take pieces of iron, zinc, lead and copper try to strike it four or five times with a hammer. These metals are beaten into thin sheet on hammering. This property of metal is called malleability and metals are called malleable. Activity 3.4 Page

CBSE I NCERT 10th Numerical Problem solved Reflection and reflection of light

Q. 1. A concave mirror of focal length 20cm is placed 50 cm from a wall. How far from the wall an object be placed to form its real image on the wall?  Solution: V= -50 cm F= -20cm From mirror formula 1/u = 1/f – 1/v = -1/20+ 1/50 = - 3/100  U = - 33.3 cm Therefore, the distance of the object from the wall x =  50 – u X = 50 – 33.3 = 16.7 cm. Q.2. An object is placed at a distance of 40cm from a concave mirror of focal length 15cm. If the object is displaced through a distance of 20 cm towards the mirror, By how much distance is the image displaced? Answer: Here f = - 15 cm, u = - 40 cm Now 1/f = 1/u + 1/v Then 1/v = 1/f – 1/u Or V= uf/u-f =( - 40 x -15)/25 = -24 cm Then object is displaced towards the mirror let u1 be the distance object from the Mirror in its new position. Then u1 = -(40-20) = -20cm If the image is formed at a distance u1 from the mirror then v1 = u1f/u1-f = -20X-15/-20+15 = -60 cm. = - 20 x-15/-20+15 = -60 cm. Therefor
