  • Question 1
    4 / -1

    Directions : In the following questions a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a statement of reason (R). Mark the correct choice as :

    Assertion (A) : The human population represents the logistic growth curve.

    Reason (R) : When the resources are limited leading to competition between individuals and survival of fittest, the population tends to grow in a logistic manner.

    Solution

    The human population represents the logistic growth curve as the numbers of human beings are increasing rapidly but available resources are not increasing at the same pace. Such a growth pattern is not sustainable because at one point the human population would reach a place where there would not be enough resources for everyone.

  • Question 2
    4 / -1

    Directions : In the following questions a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a statement of reason (R). Mark the correct choice as :

    Assertion (A) : Natality rate increases the population size and population density both.

    Natality increases the number of individuals in an area by birth.

    Solution

    Natality is generally expressed as the number of births per 1,000 individuals of a population per year. Crude birth rate is the number of births per 1,000 persons in the middle of a given year, i.e., on July 07, It increases the population size (total number of individuals of a population) and population density.

  • Question 3
    4 / -1

    Directions : In the following questions a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a statement of reason (R). Mark the correct choice as :

    Assertion (A) : The term interbreeding implies sexual reproduction.

    Reason (R) : Interbreeding results in variation among species.

    Solution

    Interbreeding implies sexual reproduction which involves the fusion of two gametes of different species which bring variation among the species.

  • Question 4
    4 / -1

    Directions : In the following questions a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a statement of reason (R). Mark the correct choice as :

    Assertion (A) : A community with more species is more stable than that with less species.

    Reason(R) : More the number of species, lesser the variation in the total biomass production year after year.

    Solution

    Communities with more species tend to be more stable than those with less species because they are able to resist occasional disturbance . David Tilman’s long term experiments showed the plots with more species, experience less year to year variation in total biomass.

  • Question 5
    4 / -1

    Directions : In the following questions a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a statement of reason (R). Mark the correct choice as :

    Assertion (A) : Different habitats had different physical and chemical conditions.

    Reason (R) : Physicochemical (abiotic) components characterize the habitat of an organism.

    Solution

    Habitat is governed by the both abiotic and biotic components.

  • Question 6
    4 / -1

    Directions : In the following questions a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a statement of reason (R). Mark the correct choice as :

    Assertion (A) : Ecology is concerned with four levels of biological organisation.

    Reason (R) : Organisms, populations, communities and biomes are four levels of biological organisation.

    Solution

    Ecology includes six levels of organization that are organism, population, community, ecosystem, biosphere and biome.

  • Question 7
    4 / -1

    Directions : In the following questions a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a statement of reason (R). Mark the correct choice as :

    Assertion (A) : Small animals are rarely found in polar regions.

    Reason (R) : Heat loss or heat gain is a function of surface area. Large surface area, great loss of heat.

    Solution

    Small animals have a large surface area with respect to their volume, so they lose body heat fast if it is cold outside, small animals are rarely found in polar regions.

  • Question 8
    4 / -1

    Directions : In the following questions a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a statement of reason (R). Mark the correct choice as :

    Assertion (A) : Many freshwater animals cannot live for long in sea water.

    Reason (R) : Freshwater animals face osmotic problems in sea water.

    Solution

    When freshwater animals move into sea, water continuously moves out of the animal’s body through the process of osmosis.

  • Question 9
    4 / -1

    Directions : In the following questions a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a statement of reason (R). Mark the correct choice as :

    Assertion (A) : Population has certain attributes which an individual organism does not have.

    Reason (R) : Population is a group of people living in a well defined area, at a particular time.

    Solution

    Population is a group of people therefore it's attributes are different from an individual organism.

  • Question 10
    4 / -1

    Directions : In the following questions a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a statement of reason (R). Mark the correct choice as :

    Assertion (A) : Clown fish maintains a commensalistic relation with the sea anemone.

    Reason (R) : In this interaction, one species benefits and the other is neither harmed nor benefited.

    Solution

    Clown fish maintain a commensalistic relation with the sea anemone. In this interaction, one species benefits and the other is neither harmed nor benefited. Sea anemone has stinging tentacles that provide protection to Clown fish from predators. The sea anemone does not appear to derive any benefit from the clownfish.
