Answer:
Option (2)
Explanation:
Strato-volcanoes are the steep, conical shaped, formed by the alternative beds of ash and lava. The magma in this type of volcano contains high silica content and are comprised of bubbles. When the gases are released from these bubbles, then a greater force is exerted from the bottom towards the surface. Due to this, they are very explosive and ejects a huge amount of materials during eruption. For example, Mount St. Helens
.
Cinder cones are the simplest volcanoes with steep sides. They are made of the materials and semi solidified lava that are ejected from the vents of the volcano. Eruptions are often explosive due to the force exerted by the gas and the molten lava and are accumulated near the vent. For example, Paricutin.
<u>These two types of volcanoes are similar in terms of its eruption that is violent and explosive in nature. In addition to that, they both have steep sides.
</u>
Hence, the correct answer is option (2).

Answer:
Insulin is the key hormone of carbohydrate metabolism, it also influences the metabolism of fat and proteins. It lowers blood glucose by increasing glucose transport in muscle and adipose tissue and stimulates the synthesis of glycogen, fat, and protein
Explanation:
DDT stands for dichloro-diphenyl-trichloroethane. The first kind of synthetic/artificial insecticides came into use in the 1940s. The earlier usage of DDT include: a) Killing of malarial vectors, b) Combatting Typhus and other insect borne human diseases, c) As a pest control in crops d) as a pest control in garden, live stock production and even at homes.
The negative impact of DDT could be felt for the first time when the pests that were earlier killed by use of DDT have now become pesticides resistant. In the 1950s in USA, the regulatory measures were adopted to reduce the usage of DDTs as its effects as a pesticides were no more long significant and also it was creating detrimental physical and psychological impacts on the human and environment.
It was in 1972 that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency cancelled the order for banning the usage of DDT based on the adverse impact it produced on the environment, human and other life forms. Since then continuous studies are being conducted to analyse the impact of DDTs. In some later years it was established that DDT is the cause of producing tumors in liver.
Some of the common negative impacts produced by DDT as per the U.S. Department of Agriculture :
a) The non destructive nature – DDT can not be destroyed and thus it remains persistent in the atmosphere
b) It attacks the tissues of living organisms especially the animals and humans ( fatty tissue)
c) It can penetrate the atmosphere to deeper extent.
Now as per the current stuation, The use of DDT is controlled and other alternatives of pest control organisms is being deduced. As per the treaty of Stockholm Convention on POPs (Persistent organic pollutants) , usage of DDT for malarial control is justified but it puts a restrictive use of DDT as pesticides in other areas.
