The correct Answer is:
To determine the percentage of recorded species that are animals and plants, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the number of recorded species From the information provided, we know: - Recorded species of plants in India: 45,000 - Recorded species of animals in India: 90,000 ### Step 2: Calculate the total number of recorded species To find the total number of recorded species, we add the number of plant species and animal species together: \[ \text{Total recorded species} = \text{Number of plant species} + \text{Number of animal species} \] \[ \text{Total recorded species} = 45,000 + 90,000 = 135,000 \] ### Step 3: Calculate the percentage of recorded species that are plants To find the percentage of recorded species that are plants, we use the formula: \[ \text{Percentage of plants} = \left( \frac{\text{Number of plant species}}{\text{Total recorded species}} \right) \times 100 \] \[ \text{Percentage of plants} = \left( \frac{45,000}{135,000} \right) \times 100 \] \[ \text{Percentage of plants} = \left( \frac{1}{3} \right) \times 100 \approx 33.33\% \] ### Step 4: Calculate the percentage of recorded species that are animals Similarly, to find the percentage of recorded species that are animals, we use the formula: \[ \text{Percentage of animals} = \left( \frac{\text{Number of animal species}}{\text{Total recorded species}} \right) \times 100 \] \[ \text{Percentage of animals} = \left( \frac{90,000}{135,000} \right) \times 100 \] \[ \text{Percentage of animals} = \left( \frac{2}{3} \right) \times 100 \approx 66.67\% \] ### Conclusion Thus, the percentage of recorded species that are: - Plants: **33.33%** - Animals: **66.67%**
