The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to evaluate each statement individually and determine whether it is true (T) or false (F).
**Step 1: Evaluate Statement (i)**
- Statement: "Crop rotation is the practice of growing two or more different kinds of crops on a piece of land in a pre-planned succession."
- Analysis: Crop rotation indeed involves growing different types of crops in a planned sequence to improve soil health and reduce pests.
- Conclusion: This statement is **True (T)**.
**Step 2: Evaluate Statement (ii)**
- Statement: "Catla and Silver carp are column feeders whereas Rohu and Grass carp are surface feeders in a composite fish culture system."
- Analysis: In reality, Catla and Silver carp are surface feeders, while Rohu is a column feeder and Grass carp is a bottom feeder.
- Conclusion: This statement is **False (F)**.
**Step 3: Evaluate Statement (iii)**
- Statement: "Apis mellifera is an exotic variety of honey bee whereas Apis dorsata is an indigenous variety of honey bee."
- Analysis: Apis mellifera is indeed an exotic species introduced from other regions, while Apis dorsata is native to the region.
- Conclusion: This statement is **True (T)**.
**Step 4: Evaluate Statement (iv)**
- Statement: "Manganese, boron and zinc are macronutrients required by plants whereas molybdenum, chlorine and sulphur are micronutrients required by plants."
- Analysis: Manganese, boron, and zinc are actually classified as micronutrients, while molybdenum, chlorine, and sulfur are also micronutrients. Thus, the classification in the statement is incorrect.
- Conclusion: This statement is **False (F)**.
**Final Summary of Statements:**
1. (i) True (T)
2. (ii) False (F)
