These are formed mainly due to deposition, commentating and consolidation of sane grains e. g. Sand stone.

An organism having more than 2 sets of chromosomes is called polyploid. It can be induced by physical events such as heat or cold treatment, X – rays and chemical agents like colchicine. Polyploid cell or organism has three or more times the haploid chromosomal number.

Polyploid has a major role in the evolution of both wild and cultivated plants. Polyploid has a key role in plant breeding. There are increase and increased woodiness which has been observed in some insular plants. So polyploids are characterized by gigantism.

These rocks are formed largely by fine clay particles e.g. Shale or mudstone these are impermeable.

The rocks which are formed due to aggregation and compactness of sediments are known as “Sedimentary rocks.”

Sedimentary rocks are also known as Stratified rocks and Secondary rocks.

Syndicate was the term given to a group of powerful leaders in the Congress Party. The group was led by K. Kamraj, S. K. Patil, S. Nijalingappa, N. Sanjeeva Reddy and Atulya Ghosh. Lal Bahadur Shastri and later Indira Gandhi were made Prime Minister with the support received from the Syndicate. This group had a decisive say in Indira Gandhi’s first cabinet and in policy formulation and implementation of the government. After the split in Congress, the leaders of the Syndicate stayed with the Congress (O) but were defeated in the subsequent General elections.

Congress Syndicate was a group of Congress leaders who had a control over the organization of the Congress Party.

These rocks are formed by the decay and decompositions of plants, trees and vegetation, which are rich in carbon e.g. Coal. 

Calcareous rocks are formed mostly from the remains of living organisms. These rocks contain calcium carbonate or lime. They include limestone and chalk. They are porous and soluble.

(b) Make cuts at specific positions within the DNA molecule.

The chief characteristics of igneous rocks are.

• Igneous rocks are associated with volcanic activities. 
• They are compare and massive 
• They do not have stratas and are not porous. 
• They are crystalline and do not contain any fossils. 
• They are quite hard and resistant to weathering and erosion. 
• They contains metallic minerals 
• Suitable for construction purpose 
• They re very valuable minerals in recent years

Green revolution is the process of increasing food production through high yielding crop varieties and modem agricultural techniques. Organic farming is a method of crop production in an ecofriendly and pollution free environment to release nutrients to crop. As organic farming is an ecofriendly and pollution free, it is better than green revolution.

The opening of the volcano through which materials are throughout is known as a crater. It is a funnel shaped hollow at the top. Sometimes in the explosive volcanoes the peak of the volcano is blown up to form a caldera.

Arenaceous rocks are formed when grains of coarse or fine sand are cemented together. They are porous, and can hold water, e.g. Sand stone Argillaceous rocks are consist mostly of fine clay which gets hardened and forms shale or mudstone, e.g. Shale.

Coal and Petroleum reserves are found in Sedimentary rocks.

The rocks that have been changes either in form or compositions without disintegration are called metamorphic rocks. 

The process of transformation of rocks from one type to another under conditions of high temperature and pressure is known as Metamorphism.

• Rocks are one of the most valuable resources to mankind. 
• The sedimentary rocks are the chief sources of petroleum and coal 
• The metallic minerals are associated with the igneous rocks. The minerals of great economic value are iron ore, nickel, copper, lead, zinc, chromate, manganese, and rare materials like gold, silver and platinum. 
• Under tropical conditions the sedimentary rocks also contain reserves of Bauxite, tin and manganese. 
• Even metamorphic rocks like marble and precious minerals like gems, rubies, Graphite are most valuable. 
• Rocks are also essentially required as a raw material for construction works. 
• Further decaying of rocks forms soils. 
• The chemical composition as well as physical properties of soil is directly related to the parental rocks. The fertility of the soils is much determined by the rocks. As such rocks also influence agricultural activities of man.

• However, the League failed to stop aggression by the Nazi and Fascist parties or to eliminate conflicts in Europe eventually leading to the Second World War.
