Question 1.
What do you understand by a ‘Resource’? Give examples. (2015)
CBSE SAMPLE PAPERS LAKHMIR SINGH
Answer:
Everything available in our environment which can be used to satisfy our needs, is called a resource. It
should be technologically accessible, economically feasible and culturally acceptable. Only then, it can be
termed as a ‘Resource’. Examples are: minerals, forests, fossil fuels etc..

Question 2.
“Resources are a function of human activities.” Justify this statement.
Answer:
Mere presence of resources, as free gifts of nature, does not make them resources. Human beings are
essential components of resources because they transform material available in our environment into
resources. The utility of resources depends on the stage of cultural development of man and the tools and
technology used by him.

Question 3.
Write the classi cation of resources on four different bases. (2015)
Answer:
Resources can be classi ed in the following four ways:
(a) On the basis of Origin:

Biotic
Abiotic

(b) On the basis of exhaustibility:

Renewable
Non-renewable

(c) On the basis of ownership:

Individual (Personal)
Community
National
International

(d) On the basis of status and development:

Question 4. PAPERS LAKHMIR SINGH

Explain the classi cation of resources on the basis of origin and give one example of each.
Answer:
On the basis of origin, resources can be classi ed as Biotic and Abiotic.
Biotic Resources are obtained from the biosphere. They have life or are living resources, e.g., human beings,
sheries, forests, etc.

Abiotic Resources include all non-living things, e.g., rocks and minerals.

Question 5.
Classify the resources on the basis of exhaustibility and give two examples of each.
Answer:
On the basis of exhaustibility, resources can be classi ed as: Renewable and Non-renewable.

Renewable Resources. The resources which can be renewed or reproduced by physical, chemical and
mechanical processes are known as renewable or replenishable resources, e.g., water, wildlife, forests, solar
energy, wind energy etc.

Write two characteristics of non-renewable resources and write their two broad categories with examples.
CBSE SAMPLE PAPERS
Answer: LAKHMIR SINGH

Two characteristics of non-renewable resources:

1. They cannot be recycled and get exhausted with their use.


2. They take millions of years in their formation.

Two broad categories of non-renewable resources:

1. Recyclable resources, e.g., metals.


2. Non-recyclable resources, e.g., fossil fuels.

Question 8.
Give any two examples of non-renewable resources. (2015)
Answer:
Non-renewable resources are resources which once get exhausted, cannot be remade. They take a long
geological period of time, i.e., millions of years, in their formation, e.g., minerals, fossil fuels, etc.

Question 9.
Explain four types of resources based on ownership and give one example of each type. (2014)
Answer:
On the basis of ownership, there are four types of resources:

1. Individual Resources. Resources, which are owned privately by individuals, e.g., farmers own
pieces of land or houses. Plantation, pasture lands, water in wells are some resources owned by
individuals.
2. Community Owned Resources. These resources are accessible to all the members of the community,
e.g., village ponds, public parks, playgrounds in urban areas are accessible to all the residents of that
area.
3. National Resources. All the resources within the political boundary of a nation including the territorial
water (oceanic area upto 12 nautical miles from the coast) extending into the ocean and resources
therein belong to the nation, e.g., all minerals, forests, wildlife, water resources, land etc.
4. International Resources. There are international institutions which own and regulate some resources,
e.g., The oceanic resources beyond 200 km of the Exclusive Economic Zone belong to the open ocean
and no individual country can utilise these without the concurrence of international institutions.

Question 10.

Developed Resources. Resources which are surveyed and their quality and quantity have been determined
for utilisation. The development of resources depends on technology and level of their feasibility, e.g., water
resources used for hydel power generation or irrigation purposes.

2. Stock. Materials in the environment, which have the potential to satisfy human needs but man does not
have the appropriate technology to access them are included among stock, e.g. water is a compound of
two in ammable gases: hydrogen and oxygen, which can be used as a rich Source of energy. But we do not
have the required technical know-how to use them for this purpose. Reserves. Reserves are the subset of
the stock, which can be put into use with the help of existing technical ‘know-how’ but their full use has
been postponed for meeting the future needs, e.g., forest reserves, iron-ore reserves, water in the dams etc.

Question 11.
Name the categories under which natural resources can be grouped on the basis of state of development.
Answer:

1. Potential Resources
2. Developed Resources
3. Stock
4. Reserves.

Question 12.
How are natural resources important for man? Give ve points.
Answer:
Importance of resources for man:

1. Resources are vital for human survival.


2. They are important for maintaining the quality of life as man has been using the bio-physical
environment to satisfy his needs.
3. Natural resources form the backbone of the economy of a nation.
4. These are the bases for economic strength and prosperity of the people.
5. They provide material, energy and favourable conditions for development.

Question 14.
“Resource planning is essential for sustainable existence.” Discuss.
Answer:
Sustainable existence is a component of sustainable development which aims at development without
damaging the environment and at the same time conserving for future generation. Therefore, resource
planning is necessary for judicious, rational and equitable distribution and proper utilisation of resources. It
has become essential for a sustained quality of life and global peace.

Question 15.
What do you understand by ‘sustainable economic development’?
Answer:
Sustainable economic development means that ‘development should take place without damaging the
environment and development in the present should not compromise with the needs of future generation.’

Question 16.
Why is ‘Resource Planning’ necessary? Give reasons.
Answer:
Planning is necessary for proper and judicious utilisation of resources.
Reasons for resource planning:

1. Resource availability is not the same in all parts of the country.


2. Resources, especially non-renewable resources, need extra care as they Cannot be renewed.
3. There is acute shortage or de ciency of some resources.
4. Resource planning helps in proper utilisation of resources by reducing wastage. It takes care of future
needs and may sustain the environment.

Question 17.
“India has enormous diversity in the availability of resources.” Name four varied regions to justify this
statement.
Answer:
There are regions which are rich or self-su cient in certain types of resources and there are areas that are
de cient or have acute shortage of some vital resources.
For example:

1. The states of Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh are rich in minerals and coal deposits.
2. Arunachal Pradesh has abundance of water resources but lacks in infrastructural development.

Question 18. PAPERS LAKHMIR SINGH

Explain three stages of ‘resource planning.’ (2015)


Answer:
Three stages of resource planning:

1. Identi cation and inventory of resources across the regions of the country. This involves surveying,
mapping and the qualitative and quantitative estimation and measurement of the resources.
2. Evolving a planning structure endowed with appropriate technology, skill and institutional set up for
implementing resource development plAnswer:
3. Matching the resource development plans with overall national development plAnswer:

Question 19.
“Planning is the widely accepted strategy for judicious use of resources in a country like India”. Justify this
statement with two relevant points and an example. (2013)
Answer:
India has enormous diversity in the availability of resources. Through planning, regions which have shortage
of vital resources and those having adequate quantities, receive equal attention.

1. There are regions which are rich in certain types of resources but are de cient in some other
resources.
For example: Arunachal has abundance of water but lacks in infrastructural development.
2. There are some regions which can be considered self su cient in terms of availability of resources.
For example: The states of Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh are rich in minerals and
coal deposits.
3. There are some regions which have acute shortage of some vital resources.
For example: The state of Rajasthan is well endowed with solar and wind energy but lacks in water
resources.

Question 20.
Write four factors which determine resource development in a region.
Answer:
Four factors involved in the development of resources are:

1. Availability of resources
2. Level of technology
3. Quality of human resources
4. Historical experiences of the people

generation. It alsoPAPERS

potential SINGH
to meet the needs and aspirations of future generations.
Three reasons for conservation:

1. Our resources are limited in nature, therefore they have to be frugally used.
2. Many of the resources are non-renewable in nature, therefore extra care has to be taken.
3. Their conservation is necessary for our own sustenance and for the ongoing economic
developmental processes.

Question 22.
Explain the concept of resource conservation as voiced by Gandhiji. (2012)
Or
Whom did Gandhiji make responsible for the depletion of resources at the global level?
Answer:
Gandhiji voiced his concern about resource conservation in these Words: “There is enough far everybody’s
need and not for anybody’s greed.” He placed the greedy and sel sh individuals as the root cause for
resource depletion at the global level. He was against ‘mass production’ and wanted to replace it with
‘production by the masses’.

1. Indiscriminate use of resources by human beings has led to the depletion of resources for satisfying
the greed of few individuals.
2. Irrational consumption and over-utilization of resources leads to socio-economic and environmental
problems.

Question 23.
Write four institutional efforts made at global level for ‘resource conservation’.
Answer:

1. At the international level, the Club of Rome advocated resource conservation for the rst time in a
more systematic way in 1968.
2. In 1974, the Gandhian Philosophy was presented once again by Schumacher in his book “Small is
Beautiful”.
3. Brundtland Commission Report in 1987, introduced the concept of ‘sustainable development’ and
advocated it as a means for resource conservation. This was subsequently published in a book
entitled “Our Common Future”.
4. In June 1992, the rst ‘International Earth Summit’ was held in Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, in which 100
heads of States met for addressing urgent problems of environmental protection and socio-economic
development at the global level.

sustainable development in the 21st century. It is an agenda to combat environmental damage,
poverty and diseases through global co-operation on common interests, mutual needs and shared
responsibilities.

Question 25.
“The future generation may not have su cient resources as compared to the present generation”. Justify
the statement by giving suitable examples. (2012)
Or
Why is the issue of sustainability relevant for development?
Answer:
Present sources of energy in India are coal, petroleum, natural gas, solar energy, wind energy, hydel power,
electricity, wood for re, cow dung etc. Most of these are non-renewable sources of energy which may get
exhausted after some time. These are available in limited quantities. The present rate of consumption is
higher than the rate at which these resources are being replenished and should be preserved for our future
generations.

In fty years’ time, India may depend largely on non-conventional sources of energy which are available in
abundance such as solar energy, hydel energy, wind energy etc. The total hydel power potential in India is
estimated at 1,50,000 MW of which only one-sixth has been developed so far.

1. Development of a country needs to be continuous. Every country would like to have the level of
development go up further.
2. Many scientists have warned that the present levels of development cannot be sustained for the
future as the present rate of consumption of both renewable and non-renewable resources is very
high. Rapid industrialisation has led to environment degradation.
3. Sustainability development aims at development without damaging the environment and at the same
time conserving for the future.
4. Sustainability of development is essential not only for the present generation but also for future
generations to ensure a good life.

Answer:
The major land-use categories and their percentage share is:

1. Net sown area, where regular agriculture is done — 43.41%.


2. Forests, 22.57% of the total land is covered by forests.
3. Barren and waste land — 6.29%.
4. Area under non-agricultural use — 7.92%.
5. Permanent pastures and grazing land — 3.45%.

each.
Answer:
Punjab and Haryana are two states, which have more than 80% of their total area as N.S.A. (Net Sown Area)
because:

1. They are agriculturally rich States because of favourable climatic conditions for the growth of crops
and levelled fertile nature of land.
2. Irrigation facilities are well-developed here.

States with low N.S.A. i.e., less than 10% are Arunachal Pradesh and Mizoram because:

1. The nature of land is hilly and forested, therefore availability of arable land is less.
2. Economic backwardness and climatic conditions also do not encourage large scale agricultural
activities.

We have 22.57% area under forests which is far lower than the desired 33% of geographical area, as
outlined by National Forest Policy.

Question 38.
What is land degradation? What is the area of degraded land in India? Name four types of waste-lands and
their percentage share respectively.
Answer:
Damage to the land, bringing down its quality is called land degradation.
Continuous use of land over a long period of time without taking appropriate measures to conserve and
manage it, results in land degradation. India has 130 million hectares of degraded land.
Four categories of waste-lands:

1. Water eroded area .. 56%


2. Forest degraded area .. 28%
3. Wind eroded area .. 10%
4. Saline and Alkaline land .. 6%

Question 39.
Write six human activities which have caused land degradation.
Answer:

1. Deforestation
2. Overgrazing
3. Mining activities — mining sites are abandoned after excavation leaving deep scars and traces of
over-burdening.
4. Mineral processing produces large quantities of dust in the atmosphere, which on settling down on
land, retards the process of in ltration of water into the soil.
5. Over-irrigation leads to waterlogging which increases salinity and alkalinity in the soil.
6. Industrial e uents — such wastes cause land and water pollution.

Question 40.
Which factor is mainly responsible for maximum land degradation in India? (2015)
Answer:
Over-grazing is one of the main reasons for land degradation. States where over-grazing has resulted in
land degradation are Gujarat, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra.

Question 58. PAPERS LAKHMIR SINGH

Write the distribution of red and yellow soils. Give reasons for their colour.
Or
How does red soil develop and in which part of India? What makes it look red and yellow?
Answer:
In Eastern and Southern parts of Deccan plateau, red soils have developed on crystalline igneous rocks in
areas of low rainfall. They are also found in parts of Orissa, Chhattisgarh, Southern parts of the middle
Ganga Plains and along the piedmont zone of Western Ghats.

These soils develop a reddish colour due to diffusion of iron in crystalline and metamorphic rocks. It looks
yellow when it occurs in a hydrated form.

Question 59.
Write four characteristics of laterite soils. Why are they called laterite?
Answer:

1. They are highly leached soils.


2. They develop in areas of heavy rainfall and high temperature.
3. They have low ‘humus’ content, because most of the micro-organisms particularly decomposers like
bacteria get destroyed due to high temperature.
4. These soils can be cultivated with adequate doses of manure and fertilisers.
The word laterite has been derived from the Latin word ‘late/ which means brick. Since their colour is
red and resembles brick colour, these soils are called laterite soils.

Question 60.
Write six states which have laterite soils and name the important crops which grow well in these soils.
Answer:
Six states in which laterite soils are found: Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Madhya Pradesh and the hilly
areas of Orissa and Assam.
Crops which grow well in these soils are: tea, coffee and cashew-nuts.

Question 62.
Write the main features of forest soils. What are the different types of soils found in the hilly forested areas?
Answer:
Forest soils are mainly found in the hilly and mountainous areas where su cient rain forests are available.
The soil texture varies according to the mountain environment where they are formed. At least four types of
soils can be seen in the hilly forested areas:

1. They are loamy and silty in valley sides.


2. They are coarse grained in upper slopes.
3. They are highly denuded, acidic with low humus content in the snow covered areas.
4. They are very ne and fertile in lower parts of the valley and on river terraces.

Question 63.
What is soil erosion? Write the main causes of soil erosion.
Answer:
The denudation of the soil cover and subsequent washing down is described as soil erosion.

The process of soil formation and erosion goes on simultaneously and generally there is a balance between
the two. This balance is sometimes disturbed, leading to soil erosion. The main activities like deforestation,
over-grazing, construction and mining and also natural agents like wind, running water and glacier are the
main causes of soil erosion.

Question 64.
Explain three types of soil erosion mostly observed in India. Mention human activities that are responsible
for soil erosion. (2012)
Answer:

1. Gully erosion
The running water cuts through the clayey soils and makes deep channels,
called gullies. They make the land un t for cultivation. Such lands are called ‘Badlands’.
2. Sheet erosion
Sometimes water ows as a sheet over large areas down a slope. In this case top layer of the soil is
washed away.
3. Wind erosion
Wind blows off loose and dry soil from at and sloping land causing erosion.

Question 66.
Write four methods of soil conservation.
Answer:
Methods of soil conservation:

1. Contour ploughing By ploughing along the contour lines, water will not run down the slopes.
2. Terrace cultivation Steps can be cut on the slopes to make terraces. This restricts erosion.
3. Strip cropping Large elds can be divided into strips. Strips of grass are left to grow between the
crops. This breaks the force of the wind.
4. Planting of shelter belts The planting of trees in rows to create shelter also breaks the force of the
wind and restricts soil erosion.
Shelter belts have helped in the stabilisation of sand dunes and deserts.
