Reason: We sweat profusely in summer, which brings down the body temperature. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is correct explanation of the assertion Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not correct explanation of the assertion (A) is true but (R) is false Both (A) and (R) are false 2 / 10 Read the assertion and reason carefully to mark the correct option out of the options given below: Assertion: Ecology is basically concerned with four levels of biological organization, organism, populations, communities and biomes. Reason: Ecology is a subject which studies the interactions among organisms and between the organism and its physical environment. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is correct explanation of the assertion Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not correct explanation of the assertion (A) is true but (R) is false Both (A) and (R) are false 3 / 10 Read the assertion and reason carefully to mark the correct option out of the options given below: Assertion: Total number is not an easily adoptable measure for population size. Reason: If the population is huge and counting is impossible and time consuming. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is correct explanation of the assertion Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not correct explanation of the assertion (A) is true but (R) is false Both (A) and (R) are false 4 / 10 Read the assertion and reason carefully to mark the correct option out of the options given below: Assertion: Photosynthesis is an essential life process of plants. Reason: Small plants growing in forest are adapted to other process than photosynthesis because they are over-shadowed by tall canopied trees. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is correct explanation of the assertion Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not correct explanation of the assertion (A) is true but (R) is false Both (A) and (R) are false 5 / 10 Read the assertion and reason carefully to mark the correct option out of the options given below: Assertion: Temperature is the most ecologically relevant environmental factor. Reason: Temperature affects the kinetics of enzyme. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is correct explanation of the assertion Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not correct explanation of the assertion (A) is true but (R) is false Both (A) and (R) are false 6 / 10 Read the assertion and reason carefully to mark the correct option out of the options given below: Assertion: Population ecology, an important area of ecology. Reason: It links ecology to population genetics and evolution. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is correct explanation of the assertion Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not correct explanation of the assertion (A) is true but (R) is false Both (A) and (R) are false 7 / 10 Read the assertion and reason carefully to mark the correct option out of the options given below: Assertion: The size of a population for any species is not a static parameter. Reason: It doesn’t depend on food availability, predation pressure and adverse and adverse weather. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is correct explanation of the assertion Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not correct explanation of the assertion (A) is true but (R) is false Both (A) and (R) are false 8 / 10 Read the assertion and reason carefully to mark the correct option out of the options given below: Assertion: Mammals from colder climates generally have shorter ears and limbs. Reason: It is to maximize the heat loss. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is correct explanation of the assertion Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not correct explanation of the assertion (A) is true but (R) is false Both (A) and (R) are false 9 / 10 Read the assertion and reason carefully to mark the correct option out of the options given below: Assertion: A particular species in nature can achieve exponential growth. Reason: Availability of unlimited resources makes it possible. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is correct explanation of the assertion Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not correct explanation of the assertion (A) is true but (R) is false Both (A) and (R) are false 10 / 10 Read the assertion and reason carefully to mark the correct option out of the options given below: Assertion: Immigration contributes to decrease in population. Reason: Emigration contributes to increase in population.
