Answer for one mark questions

1. The place in which living organisms grow is called habitat.

2. The variety observed in living organisms, their habitat and ecosystems.

3. Total number of individuals of a species in a particular place is called population.

4. Different population in a particular habitat.

5. It is the condition of the organisms which is characterized by metabolisms, has the ability to self-replicate, self-organize and interact is called living.

6. The sum total of all the chemical reactions occurring in our body is metabolism.

7. Living organisms grow by cell division. In unicellular organisms it leads to reproduction. Cell division helps to replace the lost cell in the tissues.

8. Growth in living organisms is from inside, accompanied by increase in cell number, body length and body mass.

9. Production of progeny possessing features of parents by living organisms.

10. Cell division or Fission. Growth and reproduction takes place by cell division.

11. Cell is the structural and functional unit of body of an organism.

12. Naming of living organisms by the same name throughout the world is called nomenclature and practice

of calling one organism by two name,

13. Carolus Linnaeus.

14. Species is the basic unit of classification.

15. Characteristics, identification, classification and nomenclature is called Taxonomy.

16. Classification unit in Linnaean hierarchy is called Taxon.

17. Each step or rank in hierarchy is called Taxonomic category.

18. All successive taxonomic categories are Taxonomic hierarchy.

19. Group of individual organisms with fundamental similarities capable of breeding among themselves is called species.

20. Genes comprises a group of related species.

21. Family is a group of related genera.

22. Group of closely related orders.

23. Group of closely related classes.

24. Phylum is the higher category to class consists of different classes with few similar characters. In animals closely related classes from phylum.

25. Division is the higher category consists of different phylum with few similar characters. In plant closely related phylum form division.

26. Kingdom is the highest category in hierarchy. Animal kingdom comprises all animal phyla.

27. These are the places where wild animals are kept in a protected environment.
