Causes for forest depletion in India are:
- Depletion of forests on an extensive scale was carried out in the colonial period. The beginning and the expansion of railways during this period led to the destruction of huge chunks of forests.
- In independent India, clearing of forest land for the purpose of cultivation has also led to the depletion of forest cover in the country.
- Timber has become an important commercial resource. It is used for building and making furniture. The felling of the trees for the purpose of obtaining timber is an important cause of reduced forest cover in India.
- Many forests have been cleared for the purpose of building large scale dams in the country. For example, the building of Sardar Sarovar Dam in Gujarat and the Narmada Valley Project has resulted in the loss of forest lands in India.
- Rapid Industrialization, urbanisation and expansion of cities has also led to the destruction of forest cover in the country.
- Animal grazing, mining, collection of fire wood in rural areas are some other reasons of forest depletion in the country. Many people regard the practice of shifting cultivation also as a reason of destruction of forest cover in India. However it has to be noted that tribals practice it for satisfying their minimum basic needs. Depletion of forest is caused mainly due to the commercial use of timber, expansion of agriculture and the construction of large dams.

In 1834, the customs union of Zollverein was formed at the initiative of Prussia and was joined by most of the German states.
- The union abolished tariff barriers and reduced the number of currencies from over thirty to two.
- The creation of a network of railways further stimulated mobility, harnessing economic interests to national unification.
- A wave of economic nationalism strengthened the wider nationalist sentiments growing at the time.
- Varied currencies and weights and measures were obstacles to economic growth, so the creation of a unified economic territory allowing the unhindered movement of goods, people and capital was needed. So, Zollverein was formed.

पदबंध- जब दो या अधिक (शब्द) पद नियत क्रम और निश्र्चित अर्थ में किसी पद का कार्य करते हैं तो उन्हें पदबंध कहते हैं।
दूसरे शब्दों में- कई पदों के योग से बने वाक्यांशो को, जो एक ही पद का काम करता है, 'पदबंध' कहते है।
डॉ० हरदेव बाहरी ने 'पदबन्ध' की परिभाषा इस प्रकार दी है- वाक्य के उस भाग को, जिसमें एक से अधिक पद परस्पर सम्बद्ध होकर अर्थ तो देते हैं, किन्तु पूरा अर्थ नहीं देते- पदबन्ध या वाक्यांश कहते हैं।
जैसे-
(1) सबसे तेज दौड़ने वाला छात्र जीत गया।
(2) यह लड़की अत्यंत सुशील और परिश्रमी है।
(3) नदी बहती चली जा रही है।
(4) नदी कल-कल करती हुई बह रही थी।

Amphoteric oxides and hydroxides share the property of being able to behave as acids. An amphoteric oxide is one that can act as either an acid or a base. Generally, non-metallic oxides are acidic and metallic oxides are basic. Metallic oxides, which show the basic as well as acidic nature, are known as amphoteric oxides. Elements that form amphoteric oxides have some characteristics of metals and some of the non-metals.
