Read the given passage and answer the following questions : Food chains and the energy flow within an ecosystem provide an important understanding of contingencies and mutual dependencies of organisms. The flow chart given below, depicts the energy flow within some members of a grassland ecosystem. The grass in the below ecosystem transduces 120,000 J of sunlight and fixes it into 12,000 J of energy. It is established that 90% of the energy of one trophic level is not passed to the next trophic level. Further assume that the energy transferred from one trophic level to the next is equally shared among the different organisms at that trophic level. Based on the information given and your knowledge, answer the following questions. The first trophic level in a food chain is always a green plant. Why?

Large quantities of sewage is generated everyday in cities and towns, which is treated in Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs) to make it less polluted. Given below is the flow diagram of one of the stages of STP. Observe the given flow diagram and answer the questions accordingly (a) Why primary effluent is passed into large aeration tanks? (b) Write the technical term used for the sediment formed? Mention its significance (c) Explain the final step that results in the formation of biogas in the large tank before the treated effluent is released into water bodies.

In Kunjpura village, located in Karnal district, Haryana, Aditya Aggarwal and his older brother Amit Aggarwal run Tee Cee Industries, a steel plant set up by their ancestors in 1984. Along with this, they also run a gaushala that houses 1,200 cows that can no longer produce milk. The cow shelter was manageable but running the steel plant was turning out to be expensive because they spent a whopping Rs 5 lakh every month on electricity The brothers struck upon an idea. Why not run the factory with the biogas produced from cow dung from the shelter and other gaushalas , along with bio and agri-waste like sewage , etc this led Aditya and Amit to start Amrit Fertilisers, a biogas project, in 2014, without any government support. Biogas is formed in the
