Solved questions to excel in examination: Chapter Adaptation

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: 1.Hhaving streamline body shape that protect from wind

2. 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

16. Q.What types of adaptation seen in desert habitat?

Ans: (i) store water in body (ii) Use less water to survive

(iii) Keep away from hot place (iv) live in deep borrow

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

Ans: Plants depends on sunlight and air for food. Animal depends on air and water for to live. Decompose dead part of living organism and convert into organic matter that develop soil fertility. Plants also maintain purity of atmosphere.

18. Q. What is the difference between a predator and a prey?

Ans: A predator is an animal that eats other animal, whereas a prey is an animal that is eaten by a predator.

19. Q.How is a cactus adapted to survive in a desert?

Ans: cactus has a waxy surface to store water. It also has thorns to reduce loss of water. It also have thick, fleshy stem.

20. Q. What is acclimisation?

Ans: Small changes that take place in body of single organism over short period to overcome the small problems due to change in surrounding is called acclimisation.

21. Q. Give reasons: Why are deep sea worms blind?

Ans: As we move deep into seas and oceans the amount of light or the visibility decreases. Deep sea worms are blind because of the lack of requirement. Some worms have large eyes but those are not for the purpose of seeing . These worms have developed strong sense of smell to encounter these problems.

22. Q. Give reasons: Why are some marine creatures living in the deep sea give out light of thereof own?

Ans: Since there is lack of light in deep seas, some organisms can give out light to assist them in finding their way in the dark.This also helps them in finding prey to feed on and can also be used to find a mating partner.

23. Q. Give reasons: Why the upper surface of the leaves of lotus have a thick cuticle ?

Ans: Lotus is an aquatic plant. The leaves of the lotus plant have a thick waxy cuticle that helps in repelling water and keeps the stomata open so that water transport occurs effectively in plant.

24. Q. why do cockroaches hide as soon as the light is switched on?

Ans: Cockroaches cannot tolerate the high intensity light as they have some light receptors in their eyes.

25. Q. Give two examples of non-living things which show any two characteristics of living things.

Ans: Non-living things such as clouds grow in size and also move from one place to another. Another non-living thing that shows two of the characteristics of living things is a car which needs fuel (food) to function and also moves from one place

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 dissolved in it

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

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
