Correct answer: Community18742. Living part of ecosystem is:
- A. Lithosphere
- B. Hydrosphere
- C. Community
- D. Biosphere
Explanation: The biosphere is the part of an ecosystem which integrates all living organisms and their relationship with one another.
Correct answer: Biosphere- A. Commensalism
- B. Parasitism
- C. Mutualism
- D. Predation
Explanation: A symbiotic relationship, or symbiosis, is a close and long-term biological interaction between two different species.
Correct answer: Mutualism- A. Primary successions
- B. Secondary successions
- C. Seres
- D. Xeroses
Explanation: The term specifically used for each individual succession in animal or plant is called seres. Therefore this is the right option here.
Correct answer: Seres- A. Niche
- B. Biome
- C. Ecosystem
- D. Habitat
Explanation: The given statement is the definition of Niche given by Grinnell. Therefore opt A is the right choice here.
Correct answer: Niche- A. T1
- B. T2

Correct answer: T2- A. 5
- B. 3
- C. 6
- D. 4
Explanation: A series of organisms each dependent on the next as a source of food is called a food chain.
Correct answer: 4- A. Mutualism
- B. Commensalism
- C. Predation
- D. Parasitism
Explanation: The relationship in which one organism gets benefit and the other is not affected is called commensalism.
Correct answer: Commensalism- A. Lichens
- B. Shrubs

Correct answer: Succession- A. Bacterial reduction of NO3- ions to N2 gas.
- B. Active uptake of Nitrate ions by plant roots
- C. Drainage of manure from fields
- D. Leaching of nitrate ions
Explanation: Denitrification is a natural soil microbial process where nitrate ions are converted to nitrogen gas which is then lost to the atmosphere.
