Q. (b) Identify any two types of condensation found in your area based on your experience. Also mention the months when these two types of condensations took place.

Ans. Two types of condensation commonly found are:

1.     Dew: Typically seen during winter months, like December and January, dew forms when the ground cools at night, causing moisture in the air to condense on surfaces like grass and leaves.

2.     Fog: Common in early winter mornings during November and December, fog forms when air near the ground cools down and water vapor condenses into tiny droplets, reducing visibility.

Both types of condensation occur due to cooler temperatures and higher humidity in the air.

3. Answer any one of the following questions in about 40 to 60 words.

Q. (a) Mention any two incidents which you heard recently and can be marked as hazard but not disaster. Give one reason for each.

Ans. Here are two incidents that could be marked as hazards but not disasters:

1. Localized Flooding in a Low-lying Area: This incident caused temporary waterlogging, but no significant property damage or loss of life occurred.
• Reason: It remained a hazard since the situation was controlled quickly and didn’t escalate into a full disaster.
2. Minor Earthquake Tremor: A tremor was felt in a region, but it didn’t result in structural damage or casualties.
• Reason: It was a hazard because the tremor posed a potential threat but didn’t cause serious harm or widespread damage.

4. Answer any one of the following questions in about 100 to 150 words.

Q. (a) ‘The Green Revolution has made India self-reliant in terms of food grain production.’ On the basis of given statement illustrate any four impact of Green Revolution in India.

Ans.  Impact of the Green Revolution

a. Increase in Agricultural Production: Food grains in India saw a great rise in output. It was a remarkable increase. The biggest beneficiary of the plan was the Wheat crop. The production of wheat increased from 11 million tons in 1960 to 55 million tons in 1990.

b. Increase in Per Acre Yield: Green Revolution not only resulted in increased agricultural output, but has also caused increase in per hectare yield. In the case of wheat, the per hectare yield increased from 850 kg/hectare in 1960 to 2281 kg/ hectare by 1990.

c. Less Dependence on Imports: After the green revolution, India was finally on its way to self-sufficiency. There was enough food production for the population and food stock for emergencies. We did not need to import grains or depend on other countries for our food supply. In fact, India was able to start exporting its agricultural produce.

d. Employment: It was feared that commercial farming would leave a lot of the labour force jobless. But on the other hand, we saw a rise in rural employment. This is because the supporting industries created employment opportunities. Irrigation, transportation, food processing, marketing all created new jobs for the workforce.

e. A Benefit to the Farmers: The Green Revolution majorly benefited the farmers. Their income saw a significant raise. Not only were they surviving, they were prospering. It enabled them to shift to commercial farming from only sustenance farming.

5. Answer any one of the following questions in about 100 to 150 words.

Q. (b) ‘Sanitation is a way of life.’ Justify the statement by giving any four arguments.

Ans. The statement "Sanitation is a way of life" can be justified with the following arguments:

1.     Promotes Health: Sanitation involves practices like clean water access, waste management, and personal hygiene, all of which prevent the transmission of diseases and promote good health, contributing to overall well-being.

2.     Environmental Protection: Proper sanitation helps control environmental factors such as waste and pollution, which are crucial for a clean and safe living environment.

3.     Improves Quality of Life: Sanitation ensures cleaner homes, communities, and surroundings, which leads to a better quality of life by reducing illness and increasing comfort.

4.     Reduces Mortality: By preventing diseases like diarrhea, which are linked to poor sanitation, mortality rates, especially in developing countries, can be significantly reduced.

Ans.                                                   

   Project Work

Two Industries in the Our Local Area

1. Industry 1: Textile Manufacturing Unit

• Location: Near the town’s outskirts.
• Raw Materials: The textile factory is located near cotton-growing regions, which ensures a steady and affordable supply of raw cotton. This proximity reduces transportation costs and ensures timely delivery.
• Market: The factory is also well-positioned near a large urban market where there is high demand for clothing and textiles. The easy access to both national and local markets allows for quick distribution.
• Transportation: Good road networks and access to railways have further strengthened the location choice, enabling efficient movement of both raw materials and finished products.

2. Industry 2: Sugar Mill

• Location: Close to sugarcane farms in the area.
• Raw Materials: The sugar mill is strategically placed in an area surrounded by sugarcane plantations, ensuring a continuous supply of raw material. Since sugarcane is perishable, proximity to the fields helps in processing the crop quickly.
• Market: There is a high local demand for sugar, and the mill also exports to nearby cities, making it a hub for regional sugar supply. The location supports both local and broader markets.
• Energy Source: The mill is located near a source of hydroelectric power, reducing energy costs, which is essential for the energy-intensive sugar refining process.

Conclusion

The locations of both industries are driven primarily by access to raw materials and proximity to markets, reducing transportation costs and ensuring efficient production. These factors not only maximize profit but also create employment opportunities in the region.
