Question :In what way anaerobic sludge digestion is important in sewage treatments ?

Answer»

Solution : Once the BOD of sewage or waste water is reduced significantly, the effluent is then passed into a settling TANK where the bacterial .flocs. are allowed to sediment. This sediment is CALLED activated sludge. A small part of the activated sludge is pumped back into the aeration tank to serve as the inoculum. The remaining major part of the sludge is pumped into large tanks called anaerobic sludge digesters. Here, other kinds of bacteria, which grow ANAEROBICALLY, digest the bacteria and the fungi in the sludge. During this digestion, bacteria produce a mixture of gases such as methane, hydrogen sulphide and carbon dioxide. These gases form BIOGAS and can be used as a source of energy as it is inflammable.

Question : In view of the current food crisis, it is said, that we need another green revolution. Highlight the major limitations of the earlier green revolution.

Answer»

Solution :Limitations of green revolution : (i) The Green Revolution succeeded increases the food supply but, yet it was not enough to feed the GROWING human population. (ii) Incrcased yields have partly been due to the use of improved crop varieties, but mainly due to the use of better management practices and use of agrochemicals (fertilisers and pesticides). (iii) HOWEVER, for farmers in the developing world, agrochemicals are often too expensive, and further increases in yield with existing varieties are not possible using conventional breeding. (iv) Use of agrochemicals causes EUTROPHICATION in aquatic ecosystems and biomagnification in terrestrial ecosystems. (v) Water logging and SOIL salinity are some of the problems that have COME in the wake of green revolution

Question : In Ulothrix/Spirogyra, reduction division (meiosis) occurs at the time of

Answer»

gamete formation
zoospore formation
zygospore germination
vegetative reproduction

Solution :(c) In Ulothrix/Spirogyra, meiosis takes place at the time of zygospore germination. It takes place when (+) and (-) plants/filaments results in the formation of diploid zygote (2x).Zygote is tetraflagellated, it SECRETES a thick wall and becomes non-MOTILE to form diploid zygospore. Under FAVOURABLECONDITIONS, zygospore undergoes zygotic meiosis to form motile tetraflagellated zoomeiospores or non-motile aplanomeiospores. Each meiospore (haploid) germinates to new filament of (+) (-) STRAIN.
