Q1) Bacteria are capable of converting atmospheric N in the form of N2 gas to NH3. this process is known as nitrogen fixation. N2 in the atmospheric form is not usable by other organisms, therefore specialised bacteria such as Azetobacter species are capable of carrying out this conversion from N2 gas into NH3 form that can be used by other organisms
Q2) Condensation.
Water in the gaseous state or known as vapour state converted to liquid state, process is known as condensation. in condensation the particles in water become more tightly packed and heat energy is removed from these particles reducing their kinetic energy thus becoming liquid state
Q3)
Transpiration declines
Deforestation is when the number of trees and plants have been cut down therefore numbers have reduced drastically, transpiration is the process in which water is transported through the plant and lost to the environment through evaporation. When the trees and plants have reduced the water lost by way of transpiration is also reduced. This impacts the water cycle as the number of water being cycled in the environment is lesser now.
Q4) the sun
sun is the major source of energy that facilitates the recycling of water in the water cycle. The sun causes water to be evaporated from water bodies and converted to water vapour. This water vapour is then recycled.
Q5) Plants can’t use Nitrogen in the form of N2
N is an essential element needed by plants, however plants cannot use up the atmospheric N2 gas. therefore bacteria are capable of nitrogen fixation that converts N2 gas into forms that can be used up and absorbed by the plants from soil.
The over-harvesting is one of the biggest threats to endangered species.
<u>Option: B</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
- An organism or group of organism or species that is expected to reach extinction in the immediate future, either internationally or under a limited political authority, is understood as an endangered species.
- This may be at threat because of factors including habitat loss and poaching or over-exploitation.
- There are many species which are getting vanished day by day due to pollution or poaching, for an instance, pangolins, who have been hunted beyond he limits for their skin, scales, meat, and some body parts are utilized by people in making traditional medicine.
- The Indian and Philippine pangolin are listed as endangered while the Sunda and the Chinese pangolin are rated as critically endangered by the IUCN, which contributed to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) prohibiting global trade that had something to do with pangolins or their components.
When the ocean produces oxygen through the plants (phytoplankton, kelp, and algal plankton) that live in it. These plants then produce oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis, which is a process that converts carbon dioxide and sunlight into sugars that the organisms can use for energy then and later on.
Explanation:
The amoeba is made of one cell.
Answer:
- <u>Option:(D)-</u> Cushing's syndrome.
<em>"The disorder is formed inside the body due to having a higher level of cortisol hormones in the blood."</em>
Explanation:
- <u>Drug Induced hormonal imbalance:</u>
Exogenous Cushing's syndrome is mainly caused by the intake of a man made synthetic drug named as <u>glucocorticoid medicines.</u> As the drug causes the imbalance in the level of hormone cortisol inside the blood plasma, which lead us to having severe case of having more cortisol produced by the adrenal glands.
