The food mixes thoroughly with the acidic gastric juice of the stomach by the churning movements of its muscular wall. What do we call the food them?

What do we do with such spoilt food? Why?

If we observe a sleeping dog. What movement of its belly do we see ?

Answer the given question in short : What would happen if: Food enters the stomach and the stomach muscles do not move.

Metals get attacked by substances around it such as moisture, acids, etc. Metal is said to 'corrode' due to this attack and the process is called corrosion. Many metals like iron, copper, silver, etc. get corroded. When iron is exposed to moist air, it undergoes corrosion and a reddish brown coloured solid layer is formed on its surface. Corrosion of iron, which is known as rusting, is a serious problem as enormous amount of money is spent every year to replace damaged iron. Similarly, copper reacts with moisture and. CO_(2) in air to form a green coloured coating of basic copper carbonate on its surface. Silver acquires a black colour when exposed to air containing H_(2)S due to the formation of silver sulphide on its surface. Based on the above paragraph, answer the following question. Why do we apply paint on iron articles?

Paragraph based question Read the following paragraphs and answer the questions based on it. After the death of apex consumers, their energy becomes available to the decomposers. Fungi and other micro-organisms decompose the bodies of dead animals. They are called decomposers. In the process of obtaining food from the remains of organisms, decomposers convert them into simple carbon compounds. These substances easily mix with air, water and soil from where they are again absorbed by plants and incorporated into the food chain. Which susbtances are transferred in the food chain?

Read the paragraph and answer the questions given below : Our atmosphere is getting hotter. more turbulent, and more unpredictable because of the “boiling and churning” effect caused by the heat-trapping greenhouse gases within the upper layers of atmosphere. With increase of carbon, methane, or other greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere, our local weather and global climate is further agitated, heated, and “boiled”. The green house gases such as water vapour, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone are causing great impact on life on earth. Due to global warming, the glaciers are melting, causing sea level rise, coastal submergence and frequent natural disasters. We have to rethink while taking the development projects and help to protect the existing life forms on the earth before its too late because climate change can exterminate us. What can we do to reverse effects climate change?
