Write a short note on the difference mode of occurrence of minerals . Explain with example |
| Answer» Minerals are found in ores. Ore is defined as the accumulation of any mineral mixed with other elements. Minerals are found in various types. The types of minerals found are as follows:• In metamorphic and igneous rocks, minerals are found in cracks, crevices and joints. Depending on the concentration they are classified into two types. The smaller one is called the veins and the larger one is called the lodes. They are formed when minerals in molten state/liquid state are forced upwards through the earth’s cavities. They solidify and form hard minerals. Example of this type is zinc, copper, lead etc.• In sedimentary rocks, a number of minerals are found in bed or layers. They have been formed as a result of deposition, accumulation, and concentration in horizontal strata. Coal and some forms of iron ore are formed in this way. A group of sedimentary rocks like gypsum, potash salt and sodium salt are formed as a result of evaporation especially in the arid regions.• Minerals like Bauxite are formed by weathering. It involves the decomposition of surface rocks and removal of soluble constituents leaving a residual mass.• Minerals like alluvial deposits are found in the valley floor and base of the hills and are not corroded by water. Gold, silver, platinum are found in this way.• The ocean floor is home to a large amount of magnesium nodules. | |

Define nationalism and stages of indian nationalism |
|
Answer» Indian nationalism developed as a concept during the Indian independence movement which campaigned for independence from British rule. Indian nationalism is an instance of territorial nationalism, which is inclusive of all of the people of India, despite their diverse ethnic, linguistic and religious backgrounds. It continues to strongly influence the politics of India and reflects an opposition to the sectarian strands of Hindu nationalism and Muslim nationalism.\xa0India has been unified under many emperors and governments in history. Ancient texts mention India under emperor Bharata and Akhand Bharat, these regions roughly form the entities of modern-day greater India. The Mauryan Empire was the first to unite all of India, and South Asia (including much of Afghanistan).\xa0In addition, much of India has also been unified under a central government by empires, such as the Gupta Empire, Rashtrakuta Empire, Pala Empire, Mughal Empire, Vijayanagara Empire, Maratha Empire, British Indian Empire, etc. Nationalism spreads when people begin to believe that they are all part of the same nation, when they discover some unity that binds them together. The united struggles for independence helped in building the sense of collective belonging. Additionally, a variety of cultural processes also captured the spirit of nationalism.Nation Depicted in Images:\xa0The identity of the nation is most often symbolised in a figure or image; with which people can identify the nation. The image of Bharat Mata was the pictorial representation of the mother land. ‘Vande Mataram’ the national song was written by Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay in 1870s. This was sung during the Swadeshi movement in Bengal. Different artists projected their own version of Bharat Mata.Folklores:\xa0Many nationalist leaders took help of folk tales to spread the idea of nationalism. It was believed that the folk tales revealed the true picture of traditional culture.National Flag:\xa0The national flag which we see today has evolved through various stages. A tricolor (red, green and yellow) was used during the Swadeshi movement. There were eight lotuses on it which depicted the eight provinces of British India. There was a crescent moon on the flag which represented Hindus and Muslims. Gandhji had designed the Swaraj flag by 1921. It was also a tricolor (red, green and white) and there was a spinning wheel in the centre.Reinterpretation of History:\xa0Many Indians felt that the British had given a different interpretation of the Indian history. They felt that it was important to interpret the history from an Indian perspective. They wanted to glorify the rich past of India so that the Indians could feel proud of their history. |

Project report on sustainable development class 10 maximum 10 pages |
| Answer» Sustainable\xa0development\xa0is the\xa0organizing principle\xa0for\xa0economic development\xa0while simultaneously\xa0sustaining\xa0the ability of natural systems to provide the\xa0natural resources\xa0and\xa0ecosystem services\xa0on which the economy and society depend. The desired result is a state of society where living conditions and resources are used to continue to meet human needs without undermining the\xa0integrity\xa0and stability of the natural system.\xa0Sustainable development\xa0can be defined as development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Sustainability goals, such as the current UN-level\xa0Sustainable Development Goals, address the global challenges, including poverty, inequality, climate change, environmental degradation, peace and justice.While the modern concept of sustainable development is yet derived mostly from the 1987\xa0Brundtland Report, it is also rooted in earlier ideas about\xa0sustainable forest management\xa0and twentieth-century environmental concerns. As the concept of sustainable development developed, it has shifted its focus more towards the\xa0economic development,\xa0social development\xa0and environmental protection for future generations. It has been suggested that the term \'sustainability\' should be viewed as humanity\'s target goal of human-ecosystem equilibrium, while \'sustainable development\' refers to the\xa0holistic approach\xa0and temporal processes that lead us to the endpoint of sustainability".[1]\xa0Modern economies are endeavouring to reconcile ambitious economic development and obligations of preserving\xa0natural resources\xa0and\xa0ecosystems, as the two are usually seen as of conflicting nature. Instead of holding\xa0climate changecommitments and other sustainability measures as a remedy to economic development, turning and leveraging them into market opportunities will do greater good.[unbalanced opinion?]\xa0The economic development brought by such organized principles and practices in an economy is called Managed Sustainable Development (MSD).[attribution needed]The concept of sustainable development has been, and still is, subject to criticism, including the question of what is to be sustained in sustainable development. It has been argued that there is no such thing as a sustainable use of a\xa0non-renewable resource, since any positive rate of exploitation will eventually lead to the exhaustion of earth\'s finite stock;[2]:13\xa0this perspective renders theIndustrial Revolution\xa0as a whole unsustainable.[3]:20f[4]:61–67[5]:22f\xa0It has also been argued that the meaning of the concept has opportunistically been stretched from \'conservation management\' to \'economic development\', and that the\xa0Brundtland Reportpromoted nothing but a business as usual strategy for world development, with an ambiguous and insubstantial concept attached as a public relations slogan. | |

what is the effect of chinese toys in the indian markets? |
| Answer» Globalisation has resulted in the trade of foreign commodities in domestic countries. Globalisation is the interconnection between counties through the expansion of foreign trade and foreign investment. It is the process of integrating the home country with foreign countries through the movement of goods, services, investment, technology and people. With the growing globalisation, Chinese manufacturers are exporting Chinese toys to the Indian economy. In India, toys are sold at a high price. Because of this high price for toys, the Chinese manufacturers have started to export plastic toys to India. It will give a lot of opportunities and openings for domestic consumers to reach out beyond the domestic market. The consumers can choose between Indian and Chinese toys. Chinese toys have become more popular in the Indian markets due to its low price and attractive designs. Thus a large proportion of Indian toys have been substituted with much cheaper Chinese toys. This has also reduced the price of toys in the Indian market. But the producers are at a loss because of the import of Chinese toys. Producers in India has to compete with the Chinese producers. Even though this greater competition has resulted in the improved standards of the products produced at a lower price, Indian producers are having a tough time competing in the market. The Chinese toys are far better in terms of cost of production and designs. Thus the excessive import of toys has enabled the Indian buyers to have a wider choice at lower prices. The Chinese toy makers also acquire an opportunity to expand their production and profits. But the Indian producers face losses and many are shutting down their production.\xa0 | |

. Why is sustainable development essential for economicgrowth? |
|
Answer» Sustainability can be defined as the practice of maintaining world processes of productivity indefinitely—natural or human-made—by replacing resources used with resources of equal or greater value without degrading or endangering natural biotic systems.[9]\xa0Sustainable development ties together concern for the\xa0carrying capacity\xa0ofnatural systems\xa0with the social, political, and economic challenges faced by humanity.Sustainability Science\xa0is the study of the concepts of sustainable development and environmental science. There is an additional focus on the present generations\' responsibility to regenerate, maintain and improve planetary resources for use by future generations.[10]:3–8Sustainable development has its roots in ideas about\xa0sustainable forest managementwhich were developed in Europe during the 17th and 18th centuries.[11][8]:6–16\xa0In response to a growing awareness of the depletion of timber resources in England,\xa0John Evelynargued that "sowing and planting of trees had to be regarded as a national duty of every landowner, in order to stop the destructiveover-\xa0exploitation of natural resources" in his 1662 essay\xa0Sylva. In 1713\xa0Hans Carl von Carlowitz, a senior mining administrator in the service of Elector\xa0Frederick Augustus I of Saxony\xa0published\xa0Sylvicultura economics, a 400-page work on forestry. Building upon the ideas of Evelyn and French minister\xa0Jean-Baptiste Colbert, von Carlowitz developed the concept of managing forests for\xa0sustained yield.[11]\xa0His work influenced others, includingAlexander von Humboldt\xa0and\xa0Georg Ludwig Hartig, eventually leading to the development of a science of forestry. This, in turn, influenced people like\xa0Gifford Pinchot, the first head of the\xa0US Forest Service, whose approach to forest management was driven by the idea of wise use of resources, and\xa0Aldo Leopold\xa0whose\xa0land ethic\xa0was influential in the development of the\xa0environmental movement\xa0in the 1960s.[11][8]Following the publication of\xa0Rachel Carson\'sSilent Spring\xa0in 1962, the developing environmental movement drew attention to the relationship between economic growth and development and\xa0environmental degradation.\xa0Kenneth E. Boulding\xa0in his influential 1966 essay\xa0The Economics of the Coming\xa0Spaceship Earth\xa0identified the need for the economic system to fit itself to the ecological system with its limited pools of resources.[8]\xa0Another milestone was the 1968 article by\xa0Garrett Hardin\xa0that popularized the term "tragedy of the commons".[12]\xa0One of the first uses of the term sustainable in the contemporary sense was by the\xa0Club of Romein 1972 in its classic report on the\xa0Limits to Growth, written by a group of scientists led byDennis\xa0and\xa0Donella Meadows\xa0of theMassachusetts Institute of Technology. Describing the desirable "state of global equilibrium", the authors wrote: "We are searching for a model output that represents a world system that is sustainable without sudden and uncontrolled collapse and capable of satisfying the basic material requirements of all of its people."[10]\xa0That year also saw the publication of the influential\xa0A Blueprint for Survival\xa0book.[13][14]Following the Club of Rome report, an\xa0MITresearch group prepared ten days of hearings on "Growth and Its Implication for the Future" (Roundtable Press, 1973)[15]\xa0for the US Congress, the first hearings ever held on sustainable development.\xa0William Flynn Martin, David Dodson Gray, and Elizabeth Gray prepared the hearings under the Chairmanship of Congressman\xa0John Dingell.[16]In 1980 the\xa0International Union for the Conservation of Nature\xa0published a world conservation strategy that included one of the first references to sustainable development as a global priority[17]\xa0and introduced the term "sustainable development".[18]:4\xa0Two years later, the United Nations\xa0World Charter for Nature\xa0raised five principles of\xa0conservationby which human conduct affecting nature is to be guided and judged.[19]\xa0In 1987 the United Nations\xa0World Commission on Environment and Development\xa0released the report\xa0Our Common Future, commonly called the Brundtland Report. The report included what is now one of the most widely recognised definitions of sustainable development Sustainable development is the prudent and judicious use of resources in such a way that even future generations are able to use it.Sustainable development is essential for economic development as we have limited quantity of resources. Firstly, the development and growth of the country will be hampered if the present limited resources are totally exhausted.Secondly, the exhaustion of natural resources will endanger the lives of humans and many species if we do not follow the principle of sustainable development. For example, if water is\xa0overutilised\xa0and wasted, then it will not be replenished by the rains. We need to keep the stock of natural resources for future use too. |

Explain two major method to control prose rise |
| Answer» The following steps have been taken to control price rise.(i) Monetary Measures: The Reserve Bank of India takes the following monetary measures to control price rise:It increases the Bank rate; i.e, the rate at which it lends money to the commercial banks. As a corollary, the commercial banks increase the rate of interest while lending money to their customers. The increase in the interest rate curbs the tendency to borrow money and invest the same in speculative ventures.The increase in the rate of interest on the deposits encourages the consumers to invest their surplus funds. Thereby surplus funds go out of circulation. The tendency to make unnecessary purchases is curbed. This reduces the demand for the goods. The Reserve Bank withdraws surplus funds from the market by selling the government securities. It increases the Cash Reserve Ration and reduces the availability of funds with the commercial banks.(ii) Fiscal Measures are taken by the government to control price rise. These are: The government reduces the public expenditure, postpones plans involving heavy expenditure and curbs wasteful expenditure. It increases the level of existing taxes and imposes new taxes and thereby reduces spending capacity of the people. It borrows money from the market, private individuals and institutions. Thereby, it curtails excess purchasing power and demand for goods and services.(iii) Control on investment is a direct step to curb price rise. It encourages productive investments in agricultural and consumer goods industries. Thereby the supply of food grains and consumer goods in increased. At the same time, it discourages speculative investments.(iv) Price Regulation and Rationing was introduced in India for the first time during the Second World War and continued till 1972, when India became self-sufficient in production of food grains.

Power sharing chapter important points where will get plzz if anyone know any links means send plzz |
| Answer» Chapter 1 Power Sharing\tWith this chapter, we resume the tour of democracy that we started last year.\tAn intelligent sharing of power among a legislature, executive and judiciary is very important to the design of a democracy.\tWe start with two stories from Belgium and Sri Lanka.\tBoth these stories are about how democracies handle demands for power sharing.Belgium and Sri Lanka:\tBelgium is a small country in Europe.\tIt has borders with Netherlands, France and Germany.\t59% in the Flemish region speaks Dutch.\tAnother 40% people live in Wallonia region and speaks French.\tRemaining 1% of the Belgians speak Germany.\tn the capital city Brussels, 80% people speak French while 20% are Dutch – speaking.\tThe minority French – speaking community was relatively rich and powerful.\tThis was resented by the Dutch-speaking community who got the benefit of the economic development and education much later.\tThe tension between two communities was acuter in Brussels.\tLike other nations in the south Asia region, Sri Lanka has a diverse population.\tThe Sinhala speaks are 74% and Tamil speakers are 18%\tAmong Tamils, there are two sub groups, Tamil natives of the country are called “Sri Lankan Tamils”; the rest whose forefathers came from India as a population workers during the colonial period, is called ‘Indian Tamils’.Majoritarianism in Sri Lanka:\tSri Lankan emerged as an independent country in 1948.\tThe leaders of the Sinhala community sought to secure dominance over the government by virtue of their majority.\tIn 1956, an Act was passed to recognize Sinhala as the only official language, thus disregarding Tamil.\tA new constitution stipulated that the state shall protect and foster Buddhism.\tAll these coming measures, coming one after the other, gradually increased the feeling of alienation among the Sri Lankan Tamils.\tAs a result, the relations between the Sinhala and Tamil communities strained over time.\tThe Sri Lankan Tamils launched parties and struggles.\tBut their demand for more autonomy to provinces populated by the Tamils was repeatedly denied.\tThe distrust between the two communities turned into widespread conflict. It soon turned into CIVIL WAR.\tThe civil war caused a terrible setback to the social, cultural and economic life of the country.Accommodation in Belgium:\tBelgium recognized the existence of regional differences and cultural diversities.\tBetween 1970 and 1993, they amended their constitution four times so as to work out an arrangement that would enable everyone to live together within the same country.\tHere are some of the elements of the Belgian model:\ta. Constitution prescribes that the number of Dutch and French-speaking ministers shall be equal in the central government.\tb. Many powers of the central government have been given to states government of the two of the regions of the country.\tc. Brussels has separated government in which both the communities have equal representation.\td. Apart from the central and state government, there is a third kind of government. This is community government.\tIn Belgium, the leaders have realized that the unity of the country is possible only by respecting the feelings and interests of different communities and regions.\tSri Lanka shows us a contrasting example. It shows us that if a majority community wants to force its dominance over others and refuses to share power, it can undermine the unity of the country.Why is power sharing desirable?\tThus, two different sets of reasons can be given in favor of power sharing.\tFirstly, power sharing is good because it helps to reduce the possibility of conflict between social groups.\tThere is a second, deeper reason why power sharing is good for democracy. Power sharing is very spirit of democracy. A democratic rule involves sharing power with those affected by its exercise, and who have to live with it effects.\tLet us call the first set of reasons PRUDENTIAL and the second moral.\tWhile prudential reasons stress that power sharing will bring out better outcomes, moral reasons emphasizes the very act of the power sharing as valuable.Forms of power sharing:\tThe idea of power sharing has emerged in opposition to the notions of undivided political power.\tFor a long time, it was believed that all power of a government must reside in one person or group of a person located at one place.\tOne basic principle of power sharing is that people are the source of all political power.\tIn a good democratic government, due respect is given to diverse groups and views that exist in a society.\tEveryone has a voice in the shaping of public politics.\tTherefore, it follows that in a democracy political power should be distributed among as many citizens as possible.Let us look at some of the most common arrangements that we have or will come across.\tPower is shared among different organs of the government, such as the legislature, executive, and judiciary. Let us call this horizontal distribution of power because it allows different organs of the government placed at the same level to exercise different powers.\tPower can be shared among governments at different levels – a general government for the entire country and governments at the provincial or regional level. The division of higher and lower levels of government is called the vertical division of power.\tPower may also be shared among different social groups, such as the religious and linguistic groups. ‘Community government’ is a good example of this arrangement.\tPower sharing arrangement can also be seen in the way political parties, pressure groups and movements control or influence those in power. | |

Why. Did. India. adopt. Multi party system |
| Answer» Multi-party System:\xa0If several parties compete for power and more than two parties have a reasonable chance of coming in power either on their own strength or in alliance with others we call it a multi-party system.Party system is not something, any country can choose. It evolves over a long time, depending on the nature of society, its social and regional divisions, its history of politics and its system of elections.\tThese cannot be changed very quickly.\tIndia has evolved a multi-party system because the social and geographical diversity in such a large country is not easily absorbed by two or even three parties.\tThis system allows for a variety of interests and opinions to enjoy political representation.\tSuch representation strengthens democracy. | |
