The founder of taxonomy is Aristotle. The father of modern Taxonomy who wrote Species Plantarum and provided a basis for classification of plants, is

Assertion. Hierarchial system of classification is useful in that it reduces the volume of description in a catatogue of animals and plants. Reason. Characters given for a larger category (say a phylum) need not be repeated for smaller categories (say classes, orders, etc.)

Who was first to classify plants and also wrote maximum on plants ?

Who has divided the whole world into six major biogeographical regions or realms for the distribution of animals and plants ?

An open vessel at 37^(@)C is heated until 3//5 of the air in it has been expelled. Assuming that the volume of the vessel remains constant, the temperature to which the vessel is heated is

A certain vessel X has water and nitrogen gas at a total pressure of 2 atm and 300 K . All the contents of vessel and transferred to another vessel Y having half the capacity of the vessel X . The pressure of N_(2) in this vessel was 3.8 atm at 300 K . The vessel Y is heated to 320 K and the total pressure observed was 4.32 atm. Assume that the volume occupied by the gases in vessel is equal to the volume of the vessel. Calculate the following: Enthalpy of vapourization.

Rachel, an engineering student, was asked to make a model shaped like a cylinder with two cones attached at its two ends by using a thin aluminum sheet. The diameter of the model is 3 cm and its length is 12 cm . If each cone has a height of 2cm , find the volume of air contained in the model that Rachel made . ( Assume of outer and inner dimensions of the model to be nearly the same .
