What is environment?
The sum total of all surroundings of a living organism, including natural forces and other living things, which provide conditions for development and growth as well as of danger and damage is called environment. What happens when we add our waste to the environment or throw ? When we add our waste to the environment some of them are broken down by the biological processes but rest persists for a long time. What are the different types of waste materials? Waste that are broken down by the biological processes are said to be biodegradable. These wastes are decomposed through the actions of fungi, bacteria and other living organisms and enrich soil fertility. Examples: Food refuse, tree leaves urine and faecal matter, ewage agricultural residue, paper, wood, cloth, cow-dung, etc Waste that are not broken down by the biological processes are said to be non biodegradable. These substances are inert and simply persist in the environment for a long time or may harm the various members of the ecosystem. Example ; these includes DDT, insecticides, pesticides, mercury, lead, arsenic, aluminimum, plastics, polythene bags, glass, radioactive wastes. What happens after we throw waste away them away? Fungi, bacteria and other living organisms in the presence of temperature and sunlight act on waste and try to break down. Why are some substances biodegradable and some non-biodegradable? Some substances are biodegradable and some are non bio-degradable. This is because of the specific action of the enzymes produced by bacteria or decomposers. The enzymes can break down natural substances into non poisonous simpler substances but cannot act on man-made substances like plastics What are the harmful effects of biodegradable substance? 1. This waste destroyed the natural beauty and surroundings become dirty. 2. Decomposition of these wastes results in the production of foul smell, which spreads to surroundings areas. 3. These wastes may also block the drains creating pools of waste which becomes the breeding sites of mosquitoes. The letter is carriers of diseases like malaria and dengue. What are the harmful effects of non- biodegradable substance? 1. These wastes are very harmful. They enter the food chains and their concentration goes on increasing from one trophic level to the next. This leads to biological magnification and result in harmful effects in human beings and other animals. 2. Dumping these wastes affects the soil fertility and subsequently reduces the crop yield. 3. Non-biodegradable chock out the sewage system and pollute the soil. 4. Some of the non-biodegradable substances may toxic for the humans and produce various diseases. Name some of the biodegradable plastics. Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) like the poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB), polyhydroxyvalerate (PHV) and polyhydroxyhexanoate (PHH) . What are the differences between biodegradable and non-biodegradable wastes. Biodegradable Wastes 1. The wastes are broken down naturally by microbial action 2. Biodegradation forms harmless and nonpoisonous products. 3. They release raw materials back to nature. 4. They pollute the environment only when they are produced in quantity beyond the capacity of environment to degrade them. 5. Recycling is possible either naturally or through human efforts. Non-biodegradable 1. The wastes are not broken down by the microbes. 2. No such action is possible. 3. They do not release raw materials. 4. Non-biodegradable wastes pollute the environment even in small quantity. 5. Recycling is possible only through human efforts. What is echo system? Ecosystem is a structural and functional unit of the biosphere consisting of a community of living beings and the physical environment. For example: forests, ponds and lakes are natural ecosystems while gardens and crop-fields and aquarium are human made (Artificial) ecosystems. What are the different types of echo system? Natural ecosystems are grass land, a forest, a sea, a river, a desert, a mountain, a pond, a lake etc. The desert, grass land and mountain represent the terrestrial ecosystem (land based ecosystem). The ponds, rivers, lakes and sea represent the aquatic ecosystem (water- based ecosystem). Man – made or artificial ecosystems are garden, crop fields, park aquarium, etc. Why does aquarium have to be cleaned once in a while? To remove fish wastes from the water because there are no bacteria and fungi to break-down the dead remains and waste products of organisms. --------------==================================--------------------- 10th Science - Our Environment: Summative assignments View/Read 10th Chapter: Our Environment Questions Paper for FA-III View/Read 10th Science: Chapter: Our Environment HOTS Questions View/Read 10th Chapter: Our Environment: Gist of Lesson View/Read 10th Our Environment CBSE SOLVED GUESS PAPER Download Gist of Lesson for Quick Revision (By JSUNIL)
1. An eye is the most important organ of the human body. It is associated with vision and acts as a vital optical instrument. 2. An eye is spherical in shape of about 2.3 cm diameter and is covered externally by a hard thick and opaque layer called Sclerotica. The outermost layer of the eye is sclerotic that prtects and holds the eye. 3. Cornea is transparent part bulging out of eye and allows the light to enter in the eye. Cornea is also known as the window or aperture of the eye. 4. Iris is a circular diaphragm having a hole in its center .this hole is called pupil 5. Iris has muscles and coloured pigments that provide different colour y eyes 6. Iris controls the amount of light entering the eye through the pupil. 7. The pupil becomes small when bright light falls on the eye. However, it becomes wide when there is dim light. 8. The eye lens is a crystalline convex lens made up of transparent and flexible tissues behind the pupil and held by the muscles called ciliary muscles. It focuses inverted the images of objects on the retina of the eye. 9. Ciliary muscles control the focal length of the eye lens by contracting and relaxing. This ability 10. When ciliary muscles contract lens become thin thus the focal length of the lens increases. 11. When ciliary muscles expand lens become thick, and decrease the focal length of the lens. This helps us to see nearby objects clearly. 12. The ability of the eye lens to adjust its focal length is called accommodation. 13. The focal length of the eye lens cannot be decreased below a certain minimum limit this is why a normal eye not able to see clearly the objects placed closer than 25 cm. 14. The image distance in the eye remains same when we increase the distance of an object from the eye as distance between eye lens and retina is constant. 15. The least distance of distinct vision for a young adult with normal vision is about 25 m. it is called near point 16. The furthest distance of distinct vision for a young adult with normal vision is at infinity. it is called far point. 17. The human eye can focus objects at different distances by adjusting the focal length of the eye lens. This is due to accommodation. 18. A normal eye can see objects clearly that are between 25 cm and infinity. 19. In old age eye lens of people becomes milky and cloudy. This condition is called cataract. This causes partial or complete loss of vision. It is possible to restore vision through a cataract surgery. 20. One eyes of human being has a horizontal field of view of about 150° So for a horizontal field of view of about 150° 180° We have two eyes. Read more » SUMMATIVE ASSESSMENT – II

Periodic table: The table which classifies all the known elements on the basis of their properties in such a way that elements with similar properties are grouped together.
The first classification of elements was as metals and non-metals. This served only limited purpose mainly because of two reasons: (i). All the elements were grouped in to these two classes only. The groupcontaining metals was very big. (ii) Some elements showed properties of both-metals and non-metals and they could not be placed in any of the two classes. 2. All earlier attempts on the classification of the elements were based on their atomic weights. 3. The first attempt towards the classification of elements was made by Johann Dobereiner, a German chemist in 1829. He made sets of three elements which showed similar chemical properties and he called it triads. 4. The Triad was approximately the mean of the atomic weights of the other two members and the properties of the middle element were in between those of the other two members. 5. The average of the atomic masses of Li and K =1/2(7+39 )= 23 (Na) 5. The major drawback of Dobereiner classification was that the concept of triads could be applied to limited number of elements. It was also possible to group quite dissimilar elements into triads. 6. Lithium, Sodium, Potassium are called Alkalies metal as they react with metal and form alkalies (Caustic solution) 7. Calcium, Strontium, Bromine are called Alkalies Earth metal as they react with metal and form salt . as their oxide are alkalies in nature and exist in the Earth 8. Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine are called Halogen as their oxide are alkalies in nature and existin the Earth 9. In 1864 John Alexander Newland, an English chemist noticed that “when elements are arranged in the increasing order of their atomic masses. He found that "every eighth element had properties similar to the first element.” 10. Newland called this as the Law of Octaves due to its similarity with musical notes .For Solved CBSE Exam questions Visit JSUNILTUTORIAL Blog post by CBSE ADA 10th Chemistry Term 02 10th Periodic Classification of Elements (13 posts by Chemistry adda) |
