taxonomy is the science of naming, defining and classifying groups of biological organisms on the basis of shared characteristics. Key: is a device used by biologists for identifying unknown organisms. classification is the arrangement of animals and plants in taxonomic groups according to their observed similarities (including at least kingdom and phylum in animals, division in plants, and class, order, family, genus, and species. The meaning of hierarchy is the arrangement of the categories in an increasing order from species to the kingdom or in a decreasing order from kingdom to species. Answer : (c)

Cellular Metabolism is defining character of living beings. Reproduction is the action or process of copying something. cell division cycles are used in the process of sexual/asexual reproduction at some point in their life cycle. Growth and movement :- even non living things do move like sand dunes and even mountain show growth i.e increase in size Responsiveness to touch :- person in coma does not respond to stimuli, A touch screen panel is a clear glass panel with a touch responsive surface. Evolution need not be always progressive. So reproduction is correct option Answer : (a)

Common characters increases from kingdom to species is true as a result field biologists as they often need more detailed observation to point out differences so Complexity of classification increases from kingdom to species. So Reason is true but not correct explanation Answer : (b)

Biothermic : Process using heat from biomass Oligothermic : Species tolerating or confined to relatively low temperatures Poikilothermics: Species can survive with their internal body temperature varying over a wide range. They are able to withstand a much larger variation in external temperature that affects the internal body temperature. Examples of poikilotherms are fish and reptile Homeothermic : Species that maintains a constant body temperature despite fluctuating environmental temperatures; a warm-blooded animal such as humans. Or they have built in thermostat Answer : (d)

Answer : (d)

Answer : (b)

Species are groups of interbreeding natural populations that are reproductively isolated from other such groups Answer : (d)
