Name the three important components of biodiversity. Ans. Different type of living forms like plants animals insects microbes etc together form biodiversity. Biodiversity can have 3 components - (i) Species diversity (ii) Genetic diversity (iii) Ecosystem diversity 2. How do ecologists estimate the total number of species present in the world ? Ans. Since there is very large number of organisms present on earth, it is impossible to count every Organism. Also many Organisms are present in very harsh habitats which are very hard to explore. So, Ecologists try to estimate the total number of species by looking for patterns in biodiversity. For example space is diversity decreases when we move from equator to poles. This pattern in diversity gives an estimate number of different...

PDF of the Mind Map if given at end of this page 👇👇 NCERT Solutions for Class 11 Chapter Transport in plants - Question 1- What are the factors affecting the rate of diffusion? Answer: Factors affecting diffusion are -  Concentration gradient, Permeability of membrane; separating the substance, Temperature and Pressure. Question 2 - What are porins? What role do they play in diffusion? Answer: Special type of protein called Carrier proteins form porin channels in the outer membranes of plastids, mitochondria and some bacteria. The porin channels allow the molecules to pass through membrane. Molecules stick to the transport protein and are transported by facilitated diffusion. Question 3 - Describe the role played by protein pumps during active transport in plants. Answer: Protein pumps are used to transport substances against a concentrations gradient. This is a type of active transport. Active transport is carried out by membrane proteins. Pumps are proteins which use energy to ...
