Choose the correct statements regarding infra red waves from the following.
(A) Infra red waves produced by hot bodies and molecules.
(B) This radiation is trapped by greenhouse gases such as \( CO_2 \) and water vapour.
(C) These waves are used in earth satellites.
(D) Exposure to these radiation induces the production of more melanin.
(E) These radiations are used in eye surgery.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
- A (A), (D) and (E) only
- B (A), (B) and (C) only
- C (B), (C) and (D) only
- D (C), (D) and (E) only
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) (A), (B) and (C) only
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
(A) Correct: Infrared (IR) waves are often called "heat waves" because they are emitted by the thermal vibrations of hot bodies and molecules. (B) Correct: Greenhouse gases like \(CO _2\) and water vapor absorb longwavelength IR radiation reflected from the Earth, which helps…

Biofertilisers
Biofertilisers are organisms that enrich the nutrient quality of the soil and their main sources are bacteria, fungi and cyanobacteria. You have studied about the nodules on the roots of leguminous plants formed by the symbiotic association of Rhizobium. These bacteria can fix atmospheric nitrogen into organic forms. Other bacteria can also fix atmospheric nitrogen while free-living in the soil (examples Azospirillum and Azotobacter). Fungi are also known to form symbiotic associations with plants (mycorrhiza). Many members of the genus Glomus form mycorrhiza. Plants having such associations show other benefits also, such as resistance to root-borne pathogens, tolerance to salinity and drought, and an overall increase in plant growth and development. Cyanobacteria are autotrophic microbes widely distributed in aquatic and terrestrial environments many of which can fix atmospheric nitrogen, e.g. Anabaena, Nostoc, Oscillatoria, etc. In paddy fields, cyanobacteria serve as an important biofertiliser. Blue green algae also add organic matter in to the soil and increase its fertility. Currently, in our country, a number of biofertilisers are available commercially in the market and farmers use these regularly in their fields to replenish soil nutrients and to reduce dependence on chemical fertilisers.
