A
Increase the risk of floods and droughts

B
Global warming

C
Both A and B

D
Fuel shortage

Solution

Effects of deforestation on the Earth:
As a result of deforestation, chances of desertification, droughts, floods, etc. increase. Deforestation can increase the level of CO$$_2$$ in the atmosphere also, it will lead to an increase in temperature i.e. global warming. As a result, the entire natural water cycle will get disrupted. This again increases the risk of natural calamities.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
Question 4
1 / -0

Which of the following defines the effect of deforestation on wild animals?

A
Habitat of wild animals is developed, then their numbers would automatically decline.

B
Habitat of wild animals is destroyed, then their numbers would automatically decline.

C
Habitat of wild animals is destroyed, then their numbers would increase.

D
All of the above.

Solution

Deforestation is the clearing of forest which causes loss of habitat. If the habitat of wild animals is destroyed, then their numbers would automatically decline as they start moving towards urban and rural areas to meet their requirement and search a better option for their survival.
So, the correct answer is option B.
Question 5
1 / -0

What is Red Data Book?

A
Red coloured book

B
Book that maintains an international list of all endangered animal and plant species

C
Book that maintains an international list of all endangered animal species

D
All of the above

Solution

A Red Data Book contains lists of species whose continued existence is threatened. Species are classified into different categories of perceived risk. Each Red Data Book usually deals with a specific group of animals or plants (reptiles, insects, mosses). They are now being published in many different countries and provide useful information on the threat status of the species.
The red-listing assessment is a simple logical process to determine the status of the threat to a species based on available information.

Thus, Option "B" is correct.
Question 6
1 / -0

The habitat of an animal is disturbed due to

A
Migration

B
Extinction of that animal

C
Both A and B

D
None of the above

Solution

The habitat of an animal provides it with necessities such as shelter, food, and protection. If the habitat of an animal is disturbed, then it will be forced to go to other places in search of food and shelter. The animal could get killed by other animals in this process and may become extinct in future.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
Question 7
1 / -0

The 'Red Data Book' provides information of:

A
Endangered species

B
Species of Red Sea

C
Organisms that are red in colour

D
Living species

Solution

The Red Data Book is a document created for documenting and recording rare and endangered species of plants, animals, fungi, and also some local species of a particular state or country. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), established in the year 1964, maintains the Red Data Book.
So, the correct option is A.
Question 8
1 / -0

A
Sanctuaries

B

National parks are large areas where the plant and animals are conserved in their own habitat. As they are conserved in their own habitat, they are best protected in the national parks.
Sanctuary - A wildlife reservation where animals or birds are conserved.
Botanical garden - An establishment where plants are grown for scientific study and display to the public.
Zoo - An establishment that maintains a collection of wild animals in a different habitat.
Thus, the correct answer is option D.
