  • Wastewater Treatment Plant:

 

The process of wastewater treatment includes the following steps:

  1. Screening: This is the first step in which wastewater is passed through bar screens to remove large objects like rags, wood pieces, sticks, stones, etc.
  2. Grit and sand removal tanks: Water is then allowed to go into a grit and sand removal tank. This allows the grit, sand, stones and heavy objects to settle at the bottom.
  3. Sedimentation tanks: Water is now allowed to pass through large tanks called sedimentation tanks. These tanks are large enough so that organic solid matter like faeces sinks slowly to the bottom and materials like grease and oil float at the surface and skimmed off. The organic solid matter collected at the bottom of the sedimentation tank is called sludge which is continuously removed by scrapers. The sludge collected is sent to separate tanks called digesters where it is broken down by anaerobic bacteria and biogas is released.
  4. Aeration: The clarified water is passed into an aeration tank which contains aerobic bacteria. This bacteria rapidly grows and consume organic matter like human and animal wastes and convert it into carbon dioxide. The suspended microbes settle down at the bottom as activated sludge. Water is removed from the top and safely discharged into the rivers or lakes. Sometimes, before discharging into water bodies, water is disinfected with chlorine and ozone to reduce the number of harmful microorganisms that may cause various diseases.

There are two types of reproduction : Sexual and asexual. Vegetative propagation is a kind of asexual reproduction. In vegetative propagation vegetative parts of plants like , root, stem, buds are involved is called as vegetative propagation. In vegetative propagation only a single parent is involved. The offspring produced is the exact copy of the parent plant as it is produced from a single parent.

The water found below the water table is called groundwater. A large amount of unseen water is hidden as groundwater. Many people in cities and villages use groundwater which they draw from wells, handpumps, tubewells, etc. The level of water under the ground is known as watertable. The water table varies from place to place and may change at a given place.

Groundwater mainly comes from rainwater that seeps through the soil to reach the bedrock. Sometimes, water from lakes, rivers and ponds may also seep into the ground. The process of seeping of water into the ground is called infiltration. The seeped water collects between layers of hard rocks known as aquifers. Aquifers are like huge underground lakes filled with gravel and rocks from which water can be pumped out. Water in the aquifers can be usually pumped out with the help of tube wells or handpumps.

Algal bloom is the rapid increase of algae population in aquatic ecosystems, both in fresh and marine waters where it is known as either water bloom or marine bloom respectively. Algal bloom is mostly caused by the presence of large amounts of nitrogen and phosphorus present in water. These nutrients are washed away from lands and farms that are heavily riddled with nitrogenous and phosphatic fertilizers.

Insects do not have lungs or any pulmonary system like most vertebrates. Instead, they have a series of holes along the sides of their thorax (middle section) that branch off into many smaller and smaller tunnels, much like veins branch off into capillaries to carry oxygenated blood all over the body. These holes are called spiracles.

Storms are severe atmospheric disturbances accompanied by very strong, high-speed winds. Thunderstorms are whether conditions characterised by thunder, lightning and heavy rain. They occur due to the convection of air in hot and humid tropical areas. As the air near the earth's surface warms up, it rises. This results in strong upward rising winds which carry moisture with them. The moisture condenses into water droplets in the cooler, upper regions of the atmosphere. The water droplets fall down as rain or freeze and fall as hail. The rising air and the rapidly falling water droplets and ice crystals collide with each other and produce static electric charges. As a result the clouds get charged. When electric discharge occurs between the clouds or between a cloud and the ground, lightning occurs. The lightning heats up the air in its path very quickly and this results in a loud sound which we hear as thunder.

(ii) Complete breakdown of food occurs in aerobic respiration.

(iii) The end products in aerobic respiration are carbon dioxide and water.

(iv) Aerobic respiration produces a considerable amount of energy.

Example: Human Beings.
(i) Anaerobic respiration takes place in the absence of oxygen.

(ii) Partial breakdown of food occurs in anaerobic respiration.

(iii) The end products in anaerobic respiration are ethanol and carbon dioxide (in yeast) and lactic acid (in animal muscles).

(iv) Much less energy is produced in anaerobic respiration.

Example: Yeast.

Cutting down of trees on a large scale is called deforestation

Yogita Ingle 6 years, 11 months ago

Large scale cutting of trees to clear land for human use is called deforestation. Due to growing human population, vast tracts of forest have been removed. Deforestation comes in many forms, including forest fires, ranching and development, unsustainable logging for timber, clear-cutting for agriculture, and degradation due to climate change. Some 46 to 58 thousand square miles of forest are lost each year due to deforestation.

Deforastation refers to the removal of forest cover

Yogita Ingle 6 years, 11 months ago
