    Study Notes

    Conservation of Environment

    • Using cleaner sources of energy like solar energy, wind energy, and hydropower to reduce pollution.
    • Treating sewage and industrial waste water before discharging it into water bodies.

    Ecosystems

    • Ecosystems are of different sizes and consist of living organisms (biotic components) and non-living things (non-biotic components).
    • Biotic components include plants, animals, and microorganisms.
    • Non-biotic components include soil, air, sunlight, and temperature.

    Food Chains

    • Producers are organisms that produce their own food.
    • Herbivores eat plants, carnivores eat other animals, and omnivores eat both plants and animals.
    • Predators feed on other animals, while scavengers and decomposers feed on dead animals and plants.

    Water Cycle

    • Water is constantly moving from one place to another and changing its form through the water cycle.

    Sustainable Practices

    • Reducing the use of chemical fertilizers and using natural substances like manure instead.
    • Reforestation involves growing trees in areas that once had forests.
