The fertility of soil depends on the number of nutrients present in it, to support the growth of plants. Fertility of soil is determined by the presence of ‘micro nutrients’ like sulphur, chlorine, copper, boron, Iron, zinc, cobalt and ‘macro nutrients’ like potassium, nitrogen, and phosphorus in it. Soil fertility increases with the increase of humus content, which is the organic material present in soils produced by the decomposition of plants and animal matter.

Question 13.

Write the importance of forest.


Answer:

Forests are a source of timber which is widely used for both domestic and commercial purposes and it is also used as a raw material for industries. Some of the important products which we get from forests are Resins, Medicines, Honey, Herbs, Gum, Spices, Lac and Tanning materials. Forest products also help the economy by earning foreign exchange. Forests also support dairy farming as they provide vast grasslands for grazing cattle. Some forest reserves have developed as a great attraction for tourists. They also control air pollution by absorbing the atmospheric carbon-di-oxides. Forests are also helpful in controlling the floods and soil erosion. Through water, percolation forests help in maintaining the underground water table. Forests are a natural habitat for various primitive tribes and animals. They act as the moderators of climate and affect rainfall, temperature, and humidity. At last but not the least forests meet around 40% of the energy needs of our nation.



Question 14.

Describe the need for the conservation of natural resources?


Answer:

It is true to say that nature provides us various resources in order to fulfill the basic needs but the irony is that we are overexploiting available resources and if we continue to follow this pattern there will be no resources available for the future generations. So there is a need to frame and implement a policy through which we can conserve the natural resources. Some of the important needs are as follows:

a. To maintain the ecological balance and this in turn supports different forms of life.


b. Helpful in the preservation of different endangered species.


c. To ensure the availability of resources for the present and future generations.


d. To guarantee the existence of human beings.
