Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : a, b, c The Correct Answer is a, b, c. The Correct Sequence is Tropical rainforests > Coniferous forests > Deciduous forests. Tropical rainforests Tropical rainforests are rainforests that are found in areas in which there is no dry season. All months have an average precipitation of at least 60 mm. The Tropical rain forests are roughly located within 28° north or south of the equator, spread in Asia, Australia, Africa, South America, Central America, Mexico, and on many of the Pacific Islands. Trees that grow above the general canopy, may have heights of 45–55 m, although on occasion a few species will grow to 70–80 m tall. Coniferous forests Coniferous forests are predominantly made up of conifers which are the toughest and longest-living trees in the world. Such forests provide valuable softwood timber for commerce. The trees in coniferous forests grow straight and tall. The coniferous trees attain a height of about 30 m while the broad-leaved trees reach only 10 m. Deciduous forests The deciduous trees lose their leaves during the dry season just a few months before the advent of summer rains. The monsoon forest average 15m high with no continuous canopy of leaves.

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : Sirohi The correct answer is Sirohi. The district of Rajasthan, where the tropical dry deciduous forests are not found in Sirohi. Biodiversity of Rajasthan: Though a large percentage of the total area is desert and even though there is little forest cover, Rajasthan has rich and varied flora and fauna. The natural vegetation is classed as Northern Desert Thorn Forest (Champion 1936). These occur in small clumps scattered in more or less open forms. The density and size of patches increase from west to east following the increase in rainfall. The Northwestern thorn scrub forests lie in a band around the Thar Desert, between the desert and the Aravallis. The Aravalli and the south-eastern region is home to the dry deciduous forests, with tropical dry broadleaf forests that include teak, Acacia, and other trees. Hence Sirohi is the correct answer. The hilly ‘Vagad’ region lies in southernmost Rajasthan. Vagad is the wettest region in Rajasthan, and the most heavily forested. North of ‘Vagad’ lies the Mewar region, home to the cities of Udaipur and Chittaurgarh. All these regions have varied flora and fauna distinct to the region.

1193.	Differentiate between Viruses and Worms in context of networking and data communication threats.
Answer» The difference between a virus and a worm is that viruses must be triggered by the activation of their host; whereas worms are stand-alone malicious programs that can self-replicate and propagate independently as soon as they have breached the system.

Discussion

1194.	Differentiate between Viruses and Worms in context of networking and data communication threats.
Answer» Viruses require an active host program or an already-infected and active operating system in order for viruses to run, cause damage and infect other executable files or documents Worms are stand-alone malicious programs that can self-replicate.

Answer»

(a) George Gamow: He proposed that the Genetic code is constituted of 3 nucleotides. He provided proof that the codon is a triplet.

Hargobind Khorana: He synthesized RNA molecule with a defined combination of bases (homopolymers and copolymers).

Marshall Nirenberg: He gave Cell free system for protein synthesis and helped in the genetic code to be deciphered.

Severo Ochoa: He described enzyme (Polynucleotide phosphorylase) which polymerises RNA with defined sequence in a template independent manner (enzymatic synthesis of RNA).

कुक्कुट फार्म प्रबंधन का संक्षेप में वर्णन कीजिए।

Answer»

अधिक अंडा उत्पादन के लिए हमारे देश या विदेश में सबसे अच्छे नस्ल की सफेद मुर्गी होती है जिसे “व्हाइट लेग हार्न” कहते हैं। मांस उत्पादन के लिए कोरनिस, न्यूहेपशायर, असील, चटगाँव आदि नस्लें हैं। मुर्गीपालन के लिए हमेशा ऐसी मूर्गियां पाली जानी चाहिए और बड़े अंडे देने वाली हों। अच्छी मुर्गी का चुनाव करते समय निम्न बातों को ध्यान में रखना चाहिए। अच्छी मुर्गी के सिर चौड़े अता विस्तृत होते हैं, सकरे या गोलाकार नहीं। कलंगी लाल और चमकदार होती है। पेट बड़ा होता है तथा त्वचा कोमल लचीली होती हैं। जघनास्थी चौड़ा तथा योनिमूख अंडाकार होता है।

मुर्गी फार्म खोलने कें लिए आवश्यक वस्तूएं

क) मुर्गीपालन घर

ख) दाना, पानी देने के लिए बर्तन

ग) ब्रूडर

घ) उन्नत नस्ल के चूजे या बड़ी मुर्गियाँ

ङ) रोगों से बचाव के लिए टीका औषधि तथा दवा

च) अंडा देने का बक्सा

छ) रोशनी या बिजली का प्रबंध

ज) हाट-बाजार जहाँ व्यापार किया जायेगा

झ) आमदनी – खर्च का हिसाब- किताब

उन्नत नस्ल की मुर्गियाँ साल भर में लगभग 250-300 अंडे देती हैं जबकि देशी मुर्गियाँ केवल 50-60 अंडे। इन मुर्गियों को साल भर अंडा देने के बाद बेच देना चाहिए क्योकि इनकी अंडा देने की क्षमता घट जाती है तथा दाना खिलाने में लाभ के वनस्पति अधिक खर्च बैठता है। मुर्गीपालन में आहार पर 65-70 प्रतिशत खर्च बैठता है। इसलिए कमजोर तथा कम अंडा देने वाली मुर्गियाँ की बराबर छटाई करते रहना चाहिए।

घर बनाते समय निम्न बातों का ध्यान रखना चाहिए –

1. घर ऊँची सतह पर बनाए।

2. अधिक धुप, ठंढक तथा वर्षा से मुर्गियों का बचाव होना चाहिए।

3. घर को छरने के लिए एस्बेस्टस या घास फूस, पुवाल या ताड के पत्ते या खपड़ा का प्रयोग करना चाहिए।

4. मुर्गी घर का फर्श बाहर की जमीन से 10 इंच ऊँचा होना चाहिए तथा संभव हो तो पक्का बनाना चाहिए जिससे चूहा, सांप आदी बिल न बना सके।

5. मुर्गी घर की दिवार मजबूत, आंशिक रूप से खुली तथा तीन ओर से बंद रहे कि हवा के आने जाने की पूरी गूंजाइश रहे।
