Statemet (S): Species are groups of potentially interbreeding natural populations that are isolated from other such groups Reason (R): Reproductive isolation brings about distinctive morphological characters

Assertion : Species are groups of potentially interbreeding natural populations which are isolated from other such groups. Reason : Distinctive morphological characters are displayed due to reproductive isolation.

read the statements w.r.t species. (a) on the basis of taxonomic studies, species is the group of individuals with fundamental similarities. (b) each species have distinct morphological characters than other species. (c) species are group of organisms capable of interbreeding and producing fertile offspring. (d) all species with similarities in morphological features are kept in the same genus and assign to same species epithet

Recently, there has been a concern over the short supply of a group of elements called 'rare earth metals'. Why? 1. China, which is the largest produceroftheseelements, has imposed some restrictions on their export. 2. Other than China, Australia, Canada and Chile, these elements are not found in any country, 3. Rare earth metals are essential for the manufacture of various kinds of electronic items and there is a growing demand for these elements. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

Read the given statements and select the correct option Statement 1 : Physiological capacity of organisms to produce off spring under natural conditions is called as reproductive potential Statement 2 : Minimum number of individuals which an environment can sustin is referred to as its carrying capacity

Read the passage given below and answer the question: The d block elements are the 40 elements contained in the four rows of ten columns (3-12) in the periodic table. As all the d block elements are metallic, the term d-block metals is synonymous. This set of d-block elements is also often identified as the transition metals, but sometimes the group 12 elements (zinc, cadmium, mercury) are excluded from the transition metals as the transition elements are defined as those with partly filled d or f shells in their compounds. Inclusion of the elements zinc, cadmium and mercury is necessary as some properties of the group 12 elements are appropriate logically to include with a discussion of transition metal chemistry. The term transition element or transition metal appeared to derive from early studies of periodicity such as the Mendeleev periodic table of the elements. His horizontal table of the elements was an attempt to group the elements together so that the chemistry of elements might be explained and predicted. In this table there are eight groups labeled I-VIII with each subdivided into A and B subgroups. Mendeleev recognized that certain properties of elements in Group VIII are related to those of some of the elements in Group VII and those at the start of the next row Group I. In that sense, these elements might be described as possessing properties transitional from one row of the table to the next. (source: Winter, M. J. (2015). D- block Chemistry (Vol. 27). Oxford University Press, USA.) In the following question, a statement of assertion followed by a statement of reason is given. Choose the correct answer out of the choices on the basis of the above passage. Assertion: All d block elements are metallic in nature. Reason: The d-block elements belong to Group 3 -12 of the periodic table.
