Forests and their types
A forest is a highly complex and constantly changing environment. It is made up of a variety of living things like wildlife, trees, shrubs, wildflowers, ferns, mosses, lichens, fungi and microscopic soil organisms; and non-living things such as water, nutrients, rocks, sunlight and air. Trees are the biggest part of this complex community.
Vegetative Propagation of Plants
When a new plant is developed or caused to develop through stem, root or leaf the method is called as vegetative reproduction. In other words, vegetative reproduction means- reproduction through anyone of the vegetative parts of the plant.
Our Natural Resources- Let’s Conserve
The conservation of environment implies the sustainable use as well as management of natural resources including wildlife, water, air, and soils of the earth.
Processes of Life
All those processes that maintain the body of an organism collectively are called as life processes. These processes principally include Nutrition, Respiration, Internal Transport, and Excretion. Some other processes of life like control and coordination, Reproduction, Heredity and Evolution etc. are essentially found in living beings but they are not directly related to processes of life. Hence, these may or may not be regarded as life processes
Landfilling and Incineration
Land-filling is the process of disposing solid waste in low lands or into trenches through proper sanitary methods. It involves- collection, transport, compaction, etc. processes along with proper management for gas-outlet etc. For land filling, the important thing to be taken into account is the distance of waste collection site to the waste dumping site, because it involves cost of transportation.
Urban and Rural Waste and their Management
Different activities may generate waste which may be solid or liquid. The quality of both solid and liquid wastes is increasing and if the wastes are disposed in an uncontrolled manner these may cause adverse impact on public health and environment. Hence these wastes need to be managed efficiently so as to safeguard public health and environment. In definitional terms, solid and liquid waste management is the collection, transportation, processing, recycling, treatment and disposal of waste materials.
Our Food Resources
The resources that provide food to living organisms are called as food resources.
