Earlier, the green belt of rainforests covered about 12-14% of earth's land surface. Today, the rainforests cover only about 2-6% of the earth's land surface. Now, a large number of rainforests have been depleted because of: 

• Large-scale developmental and industrial activities 
• Clearing of land for farming and mining 
• The use of trees in industrial processes 
• The need for wood for industrial processes 

Due to deforestation, the top soil gets further washed away. As a result, there is no scope for growth of trees. Hence, rainforests are depleting.

Answer is (A) (3, 0, 0)

On the x-axis, y = 0 and z = 0.

Hence, the required coordinates are (3, 0,0).

Yes, ALL retains all the duplicate values of a field.

%, it replaces a string but _ replaces only one character at a time.LIKE ‘a%’ retrieve all strings of any length that start with letter ‘a’ while LIKE ‘a_’ retrieve all two letter strings that start with letter ‘a’.

Yes, ALL retains all the duplicate values of a eld

In those days there were the dramas of epic stories. Nowadays social dramas are popular. The stage decoration is also changed. Now it is in modern ways. The artists were selected on the basis of voice and its modulation, but now it is based on physique and other things. Mikes are also useful to those who have small voices. But there is no encouragement for these dramas.

1. Boys and girls ratio in a class.

2. Number of matches won and lost by India at World Cup. 

3. Number of students come by bycycle and on foot.

(A) Rukmini Devi

Nazar performed may Burrakathas during the Telangana movement.

Immunity: Resistance developed against chemicals or things or animals.

Sunkara Satyanarayana’s ‘Telangana’ was written in 1944.

Irrigation plays an important role in increasing crop production.

A plant uses only 0.1 percent of the water it absorbs to form carbohydrates.

Fertilizers: Substance that ¡s applied to increase soil fertility and plant growth. May be organic or inorganic.

Stomata: Microscopic holes present in the epidermis of the leaf, helps in transpiration.

Weeds: Other plants grow in afield along with the crop. These plants are called weeds

Carbohydrate: It is an organic compound that consists only of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. A major food source.

In organic farming, farmers use natural manures and natural pest-controlling methods.

Ingredients: A component part, constituent.

Unirrigated farming: A farming that does not supply water to land or crops is called unirrigated forming.

Friendly insects control harmful insects.

Biofertilizers synthesise nutrients from the environment or from soil to plants.

(D) Bharata Natya

Bacterial culture: the initial step in studying morphology and identification of bacteria in the disease process.

Soil testing centres give us knowledge about the soil

(D) All the above

Humus and water holding capacity are increased in the soil by applying natural manure.

Green manure crops are grown so that they can be ploughed back into the soil.

Green leaf manure can be prepared by using any plant leaves.

Vermicompost: It is the product or process of composting using worms usually earthworms.

Watershed: A ridge of land that separates two adjacent river systems. A watershed is a basin-like landform defined by high points and ridgelines that descend into lower elevations and stream valleys.

(B) Theosophical movement

49 (concatenation).

(A) Anna Pavlova

Answer is (B) 1935

Only the nutrient that dissolves in water is absorbed by the roots of the plant.

Hybridization methods and genetic engineering methods enables us to bring desirable characters in seeds.

Under this method, a series of questions to be asked by the interviewer are pre-prepared by the interviewer and only these questions are asked in the interview.

Macronutrients are required in large quantities by plants.

e.g.: Nitrogen, Phosphorous and Potassium.

Using management principles decisions can be made appropriately and timely in an unbiased manner. These decisions are reality based and effective.

Transpiration and absorption of water occur through stomata.

Decisions of business are based on facts, thoughtfulness, objectives, and justifiable factors.

The chemical potential of water is called water potential. It is denoted by Ψ_W (Psi) and measured in pascals (Pa). The water potential of a cell is affected by solute potential (Ψ_s) and pressure potential (Ψ_p ).

Ψ_W = Ψ_s + Ψ_p 

Water potential of pure water at standard temperature which is not under any pressure is taken to be zero (by convention).

Osmosis is movement of solvent or water molecules from the region of their higher diffusion pressure or free energy to the region of their lower diffusion pressure or free energy across a semi-permeable membrane. Water molecules move from higher water potential to lower water potential until equilibrium is reached.

Process of shrinkage of protoplasm in a cell due to exosmosis in hypertonic solution.

Active transport is carried by the movable carrier proteins (pumps) of membrane. Active transport uses energy to pump molecules against a concentration gradient from a low concentration to high concentration (uphill-transport). It is faster than passive transport.

Methods of Facilitated Diffusion :

(a) Symport : Two molecules cross the membrane in the same direction at the same time.

(b) Antiport : Two molecules move in opposite direction at the same time.

(c) Uniport : Single molecule moves across membrane independent of other molecules.

It is the tangential as well as radial walls of endodermal cells having the deposition of water impermeable suberin.

The loss of water through stomata of leaves and other aerial parts of plants in form of water vapour.
