The following graph shows the change in temperature. Answer according to the reading of graph.
(a) Draw a table and fill the temperature change of each day.
(b) Which day show the highest temperature?
(c) Which day shows the minimum temperature?

22.
In a class, the teacher was explaining a concept from weather and climate chapter. Anand got confused and slowly asked his teacher to repeat again. She smiled and started again. In equatorial belt the climate is hot and wet. It has evergreen rainforest and variety of plants. Similarly the vegetation of tropical region also has variations. The forest located between two tropics is called tropical forest. Desert shows arid region and only xerophytes are observed. These plants show specific modification for their survival in this arid region.
(a) Which type of forest is formed in equatorial region?
(b) What are the variation in vegetation seen in tropical forest?
(c) Give some adaptations of plants that are formed in desert.
(d) Some places conifers are seen. What are these places?
(e) What values do we observe in the teacher and Anand?
23.
Tropical rainforests are cool and humid throughout the year because of heavy rains all the time.
24.
It is easy to predict weather rather than climate.
25.
Penguins huddles together to keep themselves warm.
26.
Toucan can change the colour of its feather.
27.
Sun rays fall direct on equator line.
1.
The animals that live in tropical rainforests are herbivorous that are able to eat the vegetation, rich in rainforest.
Most of the tropical rainforest animals walk on the land or are adapted to live on trees. The animals living in rainforest have good eyesight and hearing capacity to catch their prey as well as to protect themselves from predators.
2.
Adaptive features of a polar bear that help in keeping it warm are as follows
(i) They have two thick layers of white fur.
(ii) They have layer of fat under their skin.
3.
Polar regions Polar bear/penguin/ reindeer/musk oxen.
Tropical rainforests Red-eyed frog /elephants lion-tailed macaque/ lion and tiger.
4.
Climate has a profound effect on all living organisms. Animals are adapted to survive in the conditions in which they live. Animals living in very cold and hot climate must possess special features to protect themselves against the extreme cold or heat, e.g. animals living in polar regions have adaptations such as white fur, strong sense of smell, thick skin, lot of fats to protect it from cold, wide, large paws for swimming, etc.
5.

20.
Adaptation is the term used to describe such ability. Animals are adapted to survive in the conditions in which they live. So, fish dies when taken out of water while wall lizard dies if kept under water.
21.
