1. Q. What is habitat?

JSUNIL TUTORIL, PUNJABI COLONY SAMASTIPUR

CBSE CLASS FROM 6^thTO 10+2 Science and Mathematics

Ans: A place where living things live naturally is known as habitat (Home). For example:

(i)Aquatic habitat refers to the water where plants and animals survive like pond, river, sea (in water),

(ii) Terrestrial habitat: It refers to the land where all plants and animals survive. It includes deserts, forests and grasslands, as well as coastal and mountain regions

2. Q. What are the Components (Parts) of Habitat?

Ans: There are two main components of habitat

(a) Biotic Components: Living things present in a habitat are called biotic component like plants , animals and micro organism.

(b) Abiotic Components: All the non-living things present in a habitat is called abiotic components like air water soil rocks, sunlight and heat etc.

3.Q. How biotic and abiotic components depend on each other?

Ans: Biotic and abiotic components in a habitat depend on each other for survival for example plants need sunlight and for photo synthesis and animal need oxygen for respiration.

4.Q. Why are green plants called producers?

Ans: Because plants provide food to all animal and non- green plants

5.Q. Why are non-green plants animals are called consumers?

Ans: Because non-green plants animals are directly or indirectly eat food prepared by plants.

6.Q. How do scavengers help to clean environments?

Ans: Scavengers are those animals that feed (eat) on dead animals or plants and help to keep environment clean.

7.Q. Why micro organisms are called decomposers?

Ans: A very tiny living organism that cannot be seen by necked eyes is called micro organisms like bacteria and fungi.

Micro organisms feed on dead and decaying organic matter and break them into nutrients that are used by plants so they are called decomposers.

8. Q. what is photo tropism?

Ans: Plants and animals show movements towards light is called photo tropism. Shot move towards light called positive photo tropism and root move against light called negative photo tropism.

9. Q. What we call animal that are active during night ?

Ans: Nocturnal like owl, bat, cockroach etc.

10.Q. Which bacteria help to use nitrogen fixed in soil to plants?

Ans: Rizobium

11.Q.What is adaptations?

Ans: Living organism modifies themselves according to different types of habitat called adaptations.

12. Q. Distinguish between herbivores and carnivores?

Ans: Herbivores feed on plants where as carnivores feed on flesh of other animals.

13. Q. State any two flight adaptation in aerial animals?

Ans: (i) Having streamline body shape that protect from wind

(Ii) Having hollow bones called pneumatic bones

14.Q. How does temperature affect plants and animals?

Ans. (i) Leaves and stem of plants wither (ii) Skin change into dark colour (iii) Affect size of animals

15.Q. What is the role of light on plants?

Ans: (i) Help in photosynthesis (ii) Help in fruit and flower developments (iii) Help in growth of plants

Class 10 Chapter 02 Acid Bases and Salts NCERT Activity Explanation

NCERT Activity Chapter 02 Acid Bases and Salt Class 10 Chemistry Activity 2.1 Indicator Acid Base Red litmus No Change Blue Blue Litmus Red No change Phenolphthalein Colourless Pink Methyl Orange Pink Yellow Indictors are substance which change colour in acidic or basic media. Activity 2.2 There are some substances whose odour changes in in acidic or basic media. These are called olfactory indicators. Like onion vanilla, onion and clove. These changes smell in basic solution. Activity 2.3 Take about 5 mL of dilute sulphuric acid in a test tube and add few pieces of zinc granules to it. => You will observe bubbles of hydrogen gas on the surface of zinc granules. Zn + H2SO4 --> ZnSO4 + H2 => Pass the Hydrogen gas through the soap solution. Bubbles formed in the soap solution as Hydrogen gas it does not get d...

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 ...

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 ...

Class 09 Atoms and Molecules Numerical Problem based on Law of chemical Combination(Solved)

Class 09 Atoms and Molecules Numerical Problem based on Law of chemical Combination Law of conservation of mass Law of constant proportion Empirical formula 1. If 10 grams of CaCO 3 on heating gave 4.4g of CO 2 and 5.6g of CaO, show that these observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass.(Based on Law of conservation of mass) Solution: Mass of the reactants = 10g ; Mass of the products = 4.4 + 6.6g = 10g Since the mass of the reactants is equal to the mass of the products, the observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass. 2. 1.375 g of cupric oxide was reduced by heating and the weight of copper that remained was 1.098g. In another experiment 1.179 g of copper was dissolved in nitric acid and the resulting copper nitrate was converted into cupric oxide by ignition . The weight of cupric oxide formed was 1.476 g. which law of chemical combinations does this data state? Solution: in first experiment: Copper oxide = 1....
