Q10. Which of the following is not correctly matched
निम्न में से कौन सा सही मिलान नहीं किया गया है
(a) Autotroph/स्वपोषी : producer/उत्पादक
(b) Haterotroph/परपोषी : Consumer/उपभोक्ता
(c) Saprotroph/सेप्रोट्रोफ : Decomposer/अपघटित करने वाला
(d) Herbivore/शाकाहारी : Secondary Consumer/माध्यमिक उपभोक्ता
Show Answer
Ans.(d)
Sol. Autotrophs are the producers in a food chain such as plants on land or algae in water, in contrast to heterotrophs as consumers of autotrophs. Saprotroph, a term used for organisms which obtain nutrients from dead organic matter (this term commonly applies to fungi). A herbivore is an animal anatomically and physiologically adapted to eating plant material (for example foliage) for the main component of its diet. More generally, herbivores feed on autotrophs and are known as primary consumers. Thus option (d) is not correctly matched.

Q11. Trophic level-I includes:

(a) Herbivorous animals / शाकाहारी जानवर
(b) Carnivorous animals / मांसाहारी जानवर
(c) Omnivorous animals / सर्वव्यापी जानवर
(d) Green plants / हरे पौधे
Show Answer
Ans.(d)
Sol. Trophic level-I includes all autotrophs which synthesize their food by themselves. All green plants belong to this trophic level. Organisms of trophic level-I usually utilize the radiant energy of the sun to synthesize their oganic molecules.

Q12. Fishers survive under the frozen lake, because
मछलियां जमी हुई झील के नीचे जीवित रहती हैं, क्योंकि -
(a) Fishes have hot blood / मछलियों में गर्म रक्त है
(b) Fishes are in hibernation under it / मछलियां इसके नीचे शीतनिंद्रा में होती है
(c) Water does not freeze near bottom / तल के निकट पानी जमता नहीं है
(d) Ice is the conductor of heat. / बर्फ गर्मी का कंडक्टर है
Show Answer
Ans.(c)
Sol. Lakes and rivers are frozen when the outer temperature decrease below the freezing point in winters. But only the upper layer freezes in the condition. Water remains in liquid form below the upper layer. So fishes and other aquatic creatures can survive even in frozen lake.

Q13. After bringing out of water fishes die because
मछलियां पानी से बाहर निकलने के बाद मर जाती हैं क्योंकि:  
(a) They get excess quantity of oxygen /उन्हें ऑक्सीजन की अतिरिक्त मात्रा मिलती है

(c) They cannot breathe / वे साँस नहीं ले सकते
(d) They can not move in water / वे पानी में नहीं जा सकते
Show Answer
Ans.(c)
Sol. Fish use gills to breath and gills can only bring in oxygen when moist. Out of water, a fish’s gills dries out and then the fish dies.

Q14. Redness in apple is due to

(d) Xanthophyll /जैन्थोफिल
Show Answer
Ans.(a)
Sol. Anthocyanins are the pigment compounds and responsible for red, purple and blue colours in many fruits and vegetables. Lycopene pigment is in red colour like tomato, carotene in carrot and xanthophyll pigment present in beetroot.
