Which of the following is best suited with the abiotic factor temperature, playing role in changes in physico-chemical environment of different habitats?

1. Average temperature of land is approximately 50 throughout year
2. The temperature of temperate countries is very much favourable for mango trees
3. Temperature affects kinetics of enzyme and hence basal metabolic activity of the body
4. Both A and B

Aquatic organisms face problems when water quality gets disturbed. Here water quality includes

The percolation property of soil is controlled by which of the following parameters?

1. Composition and Aggregation
2. Composition and pH
3. Composition, Aggregation and grain size
4. Grain size, topography and pH

In aquatic habitats, the type of benthic animals is determined by

1. Grain size of soil at bottom
2. Sediment characteristics
3. Percolating property of soil

Plants are

1. Regulators
2. Conformers
3. Partial Regulators
4. Partial Conformers

Shrews and Humming Birds are not capable of regulating body temperature because

2. Higher surface area to volume ratio
3. Both A and B
4. Thermoregulation is not a function of energy
