- Biodiversity describes the richness and variety of life on earth. It is the most complex and important feature of our planet. Without biodiversity, life would not sustain.
- The term biodiversity was coined in 1985. It is important in natural as well as artificial ecosystems. It deals with nature’s variety, the biosphere. It refers to variabilities among plants, animals and microorganism species.
- Biodiversity includes the number of different organisms and their relative frequencies in an ecosystem. It also reflects the organization of organisms at different levels.
- Biodiversity holds ecological and economic significance. It provides us with nourishment, housing, fuel, clothing and several other resources. It also extracts monetary benefits through tourism. Therefore, it is very important to have a good knowledge of biodiversity for a sustainable livelihood.

The variety of animals and plants living in a given geographical area is called biodiversity of that geographical area.
“Biodiversity is the variation among living organisms from different sources including terrestrial, marine and desert ecosystems, and the ecological complexes of which they are a part.

Homogeneous Mixture
Mixtures which have uniform composition throughout are called Homogeneous Mixture. For example – mixture of salt and water, mixture of sugar and water, air, lemonade, soda water, etc.
Mixture of salt in water is an example of homogeneous mixture. In this mixture, the boundary of salt and water cannot be differentiated. When a ray of light is passed through the mixture of salt and water, the path of light is not seen.

Some noise pollution preventive measures are provided in the points below.
- Honking in public places like teaching institutes, hospital, etc. should be banned.
- In commercial, hospital, and industrial buildings, adequate soundproof systems should be installed.
- Musical instruments sound should be controlled to desirable limits.
Prevention of water pollution
It is important to dispose-off waste carefully and not to dump them directly into water bodies, without proper waste treatment. Using natural fertilisers and pesticides as substitutes for chemical ones are good for plants and water. Industries should treat their wastes carefully before disposing of chemicals and other materials into water bodies directly.

Molar mass of Na=23g/mol
no. of moles = weight/molar mass
n = 11.5/23
no. of moles = 0.5
no. of moles = no. of atoms/avogadro’s number
0.5 = no. of atoms/6.022*10^23
0.5*6.022*10^23 atoms = no. of atoms
3.011*10^23 atoms.
So there are 3.011*10^23 atoms present in 11.5g of sodium sample.

Explanation:
Molar mass of Na=23g/mol
no. of moles = weight/molar mass
n = 11.5/23
no. of moles = 0.5
no. of moles = no. of atoms/avogadro’s number
0.5 = no. of atoms/6.022*10^23
0.5*6.022*10^23 atoms = no. of atoms
3.011*10^23 atoms.
So there are 3.011*10^23 atoms present in 11.5g of sodium sample

If velocity is doubled, Kinetic Energy increases by 4 times.
Kinetic energy of a body is the energy possessed by it, by virtue of its motion, i.e. if the body is moving it will always have kinetic energy.
so kinetic energy is directly proportional to v^2
coz mass is constant
so new kinetic energy changes as (2v)^2 =4v^2
so kinetic energy increases 4 times

ANSWER
Division of labour is differentiation of certain components or parts to perform different functions for increased efficiency and higher survival. Multicellular organisms often possess millions of cells. All the cells are not similar. The cell present on the surface is dead and impermeable to protect the internal cells from the harsh external environment. They also form structures for offence and defence of the organism.
Every cell of a multicellular organism cannot obtain food from outside. The organism requires a system for obtaining requires a system for obtaining food. Its digestion and distribution. Therefore, a digestive system and system of transport are also required.
Certain cells of the body take over the function of reproduction. Others take part in repair and replacement of worn out or injured portions.
For optimum functioning of cells, a multicellular organism also comes to have an internal favourable environment.

A cell is the structural and fundamental unit of life. The study of cells from its basic structure to the functions of every cell organelle is called Cell Biology. Robert Hooke was the first Biologist who discovered cells.
All organisms are made up of cells. They may be made up of a single cell (unicellular), or many cells (multicellular). Mycoplasmas are the smallest known cells. Cells are the building blocks of all living beings. They provide structure to the body and convert the nutrients taken from the food into energy.
Cells are complex and their components perform various functions in an organism. They are of different shapes and sizes, pretty much like bricks of the buildings. Our body is made up of cells of different shapes and sizes.

WBC – White Blood Cells
Other details:
| White Blood Cells are called Leucocytes or Leukocytes. |
| WBCs have an irregular shape. |
| Size varies from 12 – 17 µm in diameter. |
| The lifespan of WBC is around 12-20 days after which, they are destroyed in the lymphatic system |
| WBCs are characterized by the presence of a large central nucleus. |
| These cells are colourless, as they do not have any pigment. |
| Different types of WBCs are found in the blood such as neutrophils, B lymphocytes, T lymphocytes, monocytes, basophils, eosinophils. |

After the discovery of electrons and protons,it was noticed that all mass of an atom cannot be accounted for on the basis of only protons and electrons.Then the neutrons were discovered.
Chadwick in 1932 discovered another subatomic particle called neutron.
Neutron is present inside the nucleus.
Hydrogen atom does not contain any nucleus.
Characteristics of neutron
1)The mass of neutron is equal to mass of proton.The relative mass of neutron is 1 u and absolute mass is 1.6749 x 10-27 kg.
2)Neutron has no charge.

Connective tissues, as the name implies, support and connect different tissues and organs of the body. They are widely distributed in every part of the body. They originate from the mesoderm (the middle germinal layer of the embryo).
Connective tissues contain three types of fibres: collagen, elastic and reticular
Collagen fibres are the most widespread and made up of fibrous protein, collagen. Collagen fibres are flexible and have high tensile strength (comparable to steel).
Elastic fibres form a network and can be stretched like a rubber band. They are made up of protein elastin. They retain their original shape and size once the force is removed.
Reticulate fibres consist of collagen and glycoproteins. They are thin and form a delicate network. They join connective tissues to neighbouring tissues.

Inertia can be defined as any physical object with resistance of its change, and state of its motion.
It is also concerned with the change in its velocity, and continues to maintain its velocity.
The physical quantity that measures Inertia is known as mass.
The S.I. unit of inertia is kg.

Law of Chemical Combination
(1) Law of Conservation of Mass
In a chemical change, total mass remains conserved. i.e. mass before the reaction is equal to mass after the reaction
H2(g)+Cl2(g)⟶2HCl
Mass before reaction=2+71=73g
Mass after reaction=2x36.5=73g
(2) Law of constant or Definite Proportions
All Chemical compounds are found to have constant composition irrespective of their method of preparation or source.
For g. in water (H2O), hydrogen and oxygen combine in 2:1 molar ratio, this ratio remains constant whether it is tap water or river water.
(3) Law of Multiple Proportions
When one element combines with the other elements to form two or more different compounds, the mass of one element which combines with a constant mass of the other, bear a simple ratio to one another.
For eg. C and O2 reacts together to form CO and CO2. Here, fixed mass of carbon (12g) reacting with different masses of oxygen (16g and 32g) . Therefore, ratio of the masses of oxygen has ratio 16:32 or 1:2
