• Living organisms have different needs. 
• They usually stay in the places where most of their needs are met, that is they get sufficient food, shelter and other conditions necessary for life.

The plants and animals that live in different places on the land is called Terrestrial habitat. 

Ex: – Mango, Guava, Sapota, Birds, Man, Snakes, Ants etc.

We often find some insects like a leech on the skin of a buffalo. So buffalo skin is the habitat for that insect.

• If we encroach the habitat of animals, they may fall in danger. 
• Animals are partners of our Habitat. 
• They also have a right to live.
• We people are encroaching their habitats. 
• If we cut a tree, birds that live on it lose their nests and fall in danger. 
• We often see dogs, cows, monkeys suffering from lack of food and shelter. 
• There are some voluntary organizations that work for animal rights and protection. 
• We have to provide food and protect them, it is our responsibility.

• In all ponds we can see both plants and animals.
• The plants that we see in water are called aquatic plants. 
• Animals are called aquatic animals.

• Collect water samples from a pond, well, and bore well. Keep them separately. 
• Put a water drop on a slide keep a coverslip on it.
• Observe under a microscope. 
• We can see different types of micro-organisms in the above three.

Coffee or any medicine has no effect on alcohol level in blood. So, taking coffee or some medicine cannot help in reducing the alcohol level in blood. Even exercise does not help.

A person who uses the road / footpath is called a pedestrain.

Birds, Monkeys, Squirrels, Snakes, Ants, Spiders, Caterpillars, Moths, Bees, Wasps, Small plants (mosses), mosquitoes are some organisms that I find on a tree.

• Cactus, acacia, aloe vera, plants do not need water. 
• They are called desert plants. We can see camels frequently in the desert. 
• Desert plants and animals are suited to dry conditions and vast temperature differences.

Road safety education explained about important safety measures should followed by the vehicle drivers.

The dead things are an intermediate stage between living and non-living things.

Seed is also a living thing but it does not have all characteristics of the living world.

Yes, different places in the pond can also be called habitat. Why because. Ex : Plant. The plant in a pond habitat provide food oxygen and shelter for the animals. There are different places where plants and animals live. A pond is a habitat too.

a) No. The seed doesn’t take in food. Seed itself carry the food that helps the new plant begin to grow. 

b) Yes if we preserve it carefully we can store the food for a long time. 

c) It starts to germinate. 

d) Seeds germinate and turn into a whole plant. So we can say that seed is a living thing.

i) When we touch the mimosa, it closes its leaves.

ii) It takes nearly 15 to 20 minutes.

Correct option is  D) All the above

Dog – it takes a breath 

Tree – it has growth 

Buffalo – moves with legs

B) Give birth to young ones

The microscope is an instrument using for observing minute organisms that we cannot see with our naked eye.

The organisms which give birth to 3’oung ones are called viviparous organisms. 

Ex: – Man, Cat, Dog, Elephant.

The organisms which lay eggs are oviparous and which give birth to young ones are called viviparous.

The surface of pond:

• Dragonfly, mayfly, snail, kingfisher whirling beetle and pond skater, etc. are found on the surface of the pond. 
• However there is plenty of food and air and this is why fish usually come to the surface for feed.

Mid water:

• In mid-water great water boatman, leech and mosquito, larvae fish, and crab are found.

Pond margins:

• In the pond margins animals like frogs, cranes, crabs are found. 
• Fish usually lay eggs here

Bottom of the pond:

• At the bottom plants like hydrilla, and animals like mussels and flatworms live here. Because of their habitat and adaptation, the organisms’ make them to stay at different regions in the pond. 
• Light is minimum here but food in the form of dead and decaying matter is in plenty.

C) growth of population

Increase of population, industrialisation, urbanisation, and globalisation.

There are so many causes for road accidents in rural and urban areas.

• Different kinds of birds come from long distances to Kolleru and Pulicat lakes of our state. 
• During the months of October to March, Pelican birds appear on those lakes. 
• Generally we can see birds flying over long distances to find suitable conditions for reproduction. 
• Animals like turtles move away from coasts of West Bengal and Odisha to the coasts of Vishakhapatnam.

7. Non-adherence to lane driving and overtaking in a wrong manner.

Correct option is  A) Reproduction

Yes, all living beings possess the characteristic feature of response to stimulus

Habitat is a place where many kinds of species that are diversified in nature stays together. When a habitat is being destroyed or destructed due to the less availability of food and other resources they either die or shift to some place else. This results in the instability of the balance in ecosystem.

We can’t see microorganisms with our naked eyes. They can see only with a microscope.
