8th Science Chapter Earthquake:Some natural Phenomenon Q. What is an Earthquake? Ans: An earthquake is a sudden shaking or trembling of the earth lasting for a very short time. Q. What Causes an Earthquake? Ans: Earthquake   is caused by a disturbance deep inside the earth’s crust created by  motion of tectonic plate. Q. What could cause a disturbance inside the earth? Ans: Some time moving tectonic plate goes under another due to collision and cause a  disturbance inside the earth. Q. What are seismic waves? Ans: Waves produce by earth quake on the surface of earth is called seismic waves. Q. Where does the greatest number of earthquakes occur? Ans: The boundaries of the tectonic plates are the weak zones where earthquakes are  more likely to occur. The weak zones are also known as seismic or fault zones. Q. What are different cases of tremors? Ans: Tremors on the earth can be caused when a volcano erupts, or a me...

Activity based Questions with answer: X Chapter: Carbon and Its Compounds 1. Q. What happen when few drops of alkaline KmNO 4   added to Ethanol? Ans: In the begging color of KmNO4 disappear. When excess KmNO 4   is dissolved in solution colour cannot disappear because whole Ethanol gets oxidized into Ethanoic acid. CH3CH2OH ----- KmNO 4 ------Heat------->CH3COOH Hence, alkaline KmNO 4 or Acidified K2Cr2O7 oxidized alcohol into ethanoic acid 2. Q. How can we convert unsaturated hydrocarbon into saturated hydrocarbon? Ans: By the addition reaction of unsaturated hydrocarbon with halo atom in the presence of catalyst. HC=CH    +H2 -------------Ni--------570 0   K------> Ch3-CH3 R2C=CR2 + H2    ------------Ni---------> R2HC-CHR2 (Vegetable Gee) This reaction is known as Hydrogenation reaction. 3. Q. How can you test that given hydrocarbon is unsaturated? Ans: When few drops of...

7 th Reproduction in plants solved Questions,MCQ,For  Summative   assessments 1.What is meant by reproduction? Ans: The process of producing new individuals of same kind of the same species is called reproduction. 2. Why reproduction is a essential life process? Ans: Reproduction is essential for continuation of the species from generation to generation. 3. What are the different modes of unisexual reproduction? Ans: modes of reproduction evolve only one parent is called unisexual reproduction. (a) Fission: The mode of reproduction in which unicellular organism split into two equal halves and produce new ones is called binary fission. For example amoeba and bacteria (b) Fragmentation: The mode of reproduction in which body of plant breaks up into smaller fragments and each fragment grows into a new individual is known as Fragmentation e.g. Spirogyra , algae (c) Budding: The mode of reproduction in which small buds when develop get separated and mature ...
