Management and Types of Natural Resources
Ever since the earth was inhabited, humans and other life forms have depended on things that exist freely in nature to survive. These things include water (seas and fresh water), land, soils, rocks, forests (vegetation), animals (including fish), fossil fuels and minerals. They are called Natural Resources and are the basis of life on earth.
Our Environment has a Limit of Tolerance
We have been hearing about environmental pollution, loss of biodiversity, energy crisis, and the sustainable environment since long. So many things have already been infused in school syllabi as well. But how many of us really apply in our real life the things about which we have read in our classes? If you collect yourselves and think seriously, you may find that you are still not as careful as you are supposed to be.
The Wise Owl: Let’s Protect Owl
Most of us have seen owls in our surroundings. Owls are hard to be seen in natural settings because they usually remain active during nights only.
Animal Hormones and Their Secretion
Control and Coordination in animals are performed by the activities of different types of chemical substances. These chemical substances are known as Animal Hormones.
Come! Protect Birds in Our Surroundings
A careful study and examination is necessary to understand the nesting behaviour of birds. Nests can be and should be studied only after the migration of birds. A scientific observation and careful study of nests reveals the secrets of the nesting concepts of these little architects (birds).
Define conservation. Why do we need conservation?
Conservation of the environment implies the sustainable use and management of natural resources, including wildlife, water, air, and soils.
Hunger, Famine, and Nutritional Deficiency Diseases
People who suffer from hunger remain undernourished. They don’t get enough food to eat. As such they don’t get energy, they need to live active lives. Undernourished persons remain unable to study, work or otherwise perform physical and mental activities. This condition is especially hard for women and children. Continuous hunger weakens the immune system and makes them vulnerable to diseases and infections. Mothers who suffer continuous hunger often give birth to underweight and weak babies, and they face increased risk of death.
What is Conservation? What is its need? What can be done for conservation?
The conservation of the environment implies the sustainable use and management of natural resources, including wildlife, water, air, and earth soils.
It usually focuses on human needs and interests, which include the biological, economic, cultural, and recreational values of the natural environment.
Dynamics of Population
A population is a group of individuals (all members of a single species) who live together in the same habitat and are likely to interbreed. Each population has a unique physical distribution in time and space. It may contain individuals of different ages, and its size (density) is likely to change over time. It grows or shrinks according to the reproductive success of its members.
Phases of technological developments
There are three phases of development of technology- invention, innovation and diffusion. The invention is a process which incorporates wide range of ideas, material things, and human behaviour in new systematic ways.
