Chapter 13 - Our Environment

1 / 15

The chemicals that are non-degradable, get progressively accumulated at each trophic level, and their concentration is seen maximum in the bodies of top consumers. This phenomenon is known as:

Biomagnification

Eutrophication

Pollution

Accumulation

2 / 15

Assertion: The food chain is responsible for the entry of harmful chemicals into our bodies.

Reason: The length and complexity of food chains vary greatly.

Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of the assertion.

A is false, but R is true.

A is true, but R is false.

Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

3 / 15

What will happen if deer is missing from the food chain given below?

Grass → Deer → Tiger

The population of tigers increases

The population of tigers decreases and the population of grass increases

Tiger will start eating grass

The population of grass decreases

4 / 15

Observe the food web and answer the questions given below:

The mussel can be described as

Producers

Secondary consumer

Primary consumer

Decomposer

5 / 15

Which trophic level is incorrectly defined?

Decomposers – microbial heterotrophs

Herbivores – primary consumers

Omnivores – molds, yeast, and mushrooms

Carnivores – Secondary or tertiary consumers

6 / 15

In 1987, an agreement was formulated by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) to freeze the production of “X” to prevent the depletion of “Y”. “X” and “Y” respectively referred to here are:

CFCs; Ozone

Ozone; CFCs

CFCs; rays UV

UV rays; Diatomic oxygen

7 / 15

The given figure best represents:

Food chain in grassland, pond, and forest

Food chain in forest, grassland, and pond

Food chain in pond, forest, and grassland

Food chain in forest, pond, and grassland

8 / 15

Which of the following features relates to biodegradable substances?

Remain inert

May harm the ecosystem

Broken down by biological processes

Persist in the environment for long time

9 / 15

Assertion: Biodegradable substances result in the formation of compost and natural replenishment.

Reason: It is due to the breakdown of complex inorganic substances into simple organic substances.

A is false but R is true.

Both A and R are true, and R is not the correct explanation of A.

A is true but R is false.

Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.

10 / 15

Why do all food chains start with plants?

Because plants can produce their own energy

Because plants do not require energy

Because plants are easily grown

Because plants are nutritious

11 / 15

Which of the following organisms convert organic material to inorganic forms?

Herbivores

Carnivores

Decomposers

Producers

12 / 15

If 10,000 J solar energy falls on green plants in a terrestrial ecosystem, what percentage of solar energy will be converted into food energy?

10,000 J

100 J

It will depend on the type of the terrestrial plant

1000 J

13 / 15

If a deer is eaten by a tiger, then the energy transfer will be from

Producer to decomposer

Producer to primary consumer

Secondary consumer to environment

Primary consumer to secondary consumer

14 / 15

In the given food chain, suppose the amount of energy at the fourth trophic level is 5 kJ, what will be the energy available at the producer level?

Grass → Grasshopper → Frog → Snake → Hawk

500 kJ

5000 kJ

5 kJ

50 kJ

15 / 15

The decomposers are not included in the food chain. The correct reason for the same is because decomposers:

Do not break down organic compounds

Convert organic material to inorganic forms

Act at every trophic level of the food chain

Release enzymes outside their body to convert organic material to inorganic forms
