     (Note : Any 3 points of distinction are expected.)


    (iii) (1) Disaster : The disaster shown is gas leakage. Primary action : First and foremost,
    the windows and the doors will be opened immediately. We shall call the gas
    agency customer care department for help. The lights and the electrical

    equipment will not be turned off to avoid the accidents.


    (2) Disaster : The disaster shown is heavy rains. Primary action : If the warning of
    the heavy rains is broadcast then people staying in low lying areas should be
    taken to the safe places. Schools and colleges are kept closed. If such students
    or young children or sick persons are stranded anywhere, they should be helped

    to reach their destinations before the rain starts.

    (v) (1) 
    Fossils : Fossils offer palaeontological evidence for the evolutionary process.
    Due to some natural calamities the organisms get buried during ancient times.
    The impressions and remnants of such organisms remain preserved
    underground. The hot lava also traps some organisms or their impressions. All
    such formations form fossils.
    (2) Importance of fossils : Study of fossils help the researcher to understand the
    characteristics of the organisms that existed in the past. In this way, study of
    fossils unfold the evolutionary secrets.
    (3) Finding the age of fossil : Carbon dating method helps in finding out exact age
    of the fossil. According to the structure of earth’s crust the fossils are obtained
    at specific depths. The oldest ones are obtained at the depth while the relatively
    recent ones occupy the upper surface.
    (vi) (1) IVF means In Vitro Fertilization (IVF).
    (2) This is the technique in the modern medical field where childless couples can be
    blessed by their own child.
    (3) IVF technique is used for childless couples who are faced with problems such as
    less sperm count, obstacles in oviduct, etc.
    (4) The IVF technique is done by removing the oocyte from the mother and artificially
    fertilizing by the sperms collected from father. This fertilization is done in a test-
    tube. Thus it is also called test tube baby. The embryo formed is implanted in
    uterus of real mother or a surrogate mother at appropriate time.
    (vii) (1) All the basic needs like food, clothing and shelter should be satisfied.
    (2) There should be good opportunities for education and employment.
    (3) There should be good transport facilities.
    (4) There should be good playgrounds and gardens.
    (5) Criminals should be punished and the social safety should be enhanced.
    (6) Political conditions and views of ruling party should be helpful for the public.
    (viii) (1) Fruits are perishable food stuff. They are spoilt soon if not consumed immediately.
    Hence for storage and usage for a long term, their preservation is absolutely
    essential.
    (2) For year-long use of the fruits they are dried, salted, packed in air tight containers,
    used for preparing jams and jellies or condensed into pulps or syrups. Beverages,
    pickles, sauce, and various other products made from the fruits are largely used
    by us.
    (3) The preserved products also fetch financial benefits.
    (4) In national and international markets, Indian fruits like mangoes are in great
    demand. We can get foreign currency through exports of fruits and fruit products.
    (5) The local horticulturists get good benefit from their orchards.
    (6) Processed fruit products also give vitamins and minerals that help in maintaining
    good health. Thus fruit processing is important for human life.

    buildings.
    (2) Bacterial species such as Acidophilum sps. and Acidobacillus ferrooxidans use
    sulphuric acid as source of energy.
    (3) These bacteria control soil pollution which is caused due to acid rain.
    (4) Uranium salts are water soluble salts produced in nuclear power plants and in the
    process of electrolysis.
    (5) Geobacter bacteria prevent uranium salts from mixing with groundwater by

    (2) (a) Advantages :


      (i) While generating the power through solar radiations, no fuel is burnt.
     (ii) Solar energy generation thus does not create any type of pollution. The
    technology can be completely utilized in regions with abundant sunlight.
    (iii) Solar energy is eco-friendly, green energy.
    (b) Limitations :
      (i) Sunlight is available only during day time. Thus solar cells can generate
    power only during day.
     (ii) In rainy season and in cloudy conditions, solar power generation suffers.
    (iii) The power present in the solar cells is DC while most of the domestic
    equipments work on AC.
