The habitat of an animal is disturbed

  1. Migration

  2. Extinction of that animal

C Correct answer
Explanation

The habitat of an animal provides it with necessities such as shelter, food, and protection. If the habitat of an animal is disturbed, then it will be forced to go to other places in search of food and shelter. The animal could get killed by other animals in this process and may become extinct in future.

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The correct answer is 'warm climate and food'

Birds from Siberia such as the Siberian cranes come to India during winter months as they are cold-blooded animals and cannot survive in the extreme winters of their country. Food production and availability also reduces during winters making these the prime reasons for their migration to India.

 .............. species are the species which face the danger of extinction due to the hard conditions to survive.

  1. Threatened

  2. Extinct

  3. Migratory species

  4. All of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Threatened species are the species which face the danger of extinction due to the hard survival conditions. Giant tortoise, African elephant, polar bear are some examples of threatened species. Extinct species are species who has died out. Extinction means no more individuals of that species is alive anywhere in the world. Passenger pigeon, black soft-shell turtle, Guam kingfisher are examples of extinct species. Migratory species are those animals that migrate to Australia or pass over Australian waters during their annual migrations. Whales, turtles, Monarch butterfly are some examples of migratory species. 

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

  3. Rhinos

  4. All of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Endangered species are those species which are at very high risk of extinction. Due to loss of polar bears' habitat which has resulted from climate change, they are considered as an endangered species. Due to habitat destruction and food shortage, giant pandas are also considered as endangered species. Rhinos are considered as endangered species because of rising demand for the horn of rhinos. 

Thus, the correct answer is option D.

  1. Lack of food

  2. Lack of rainfall

  3. Lack of natural resources

  4. All of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation
Destruction of natural resources like forest may result in lack or removal of natural habitat for many species. Lack of food and rainfall affects the health of the species and may increase in the disease condition. All these pose a threat to the species and can result in extinction of species. 
Thus, the correct answer is option D.
