Adaptation & Evolution
Solution
one of the adaptation of life on trees by a monkey is its possession of digits which are
A
extensible
B
big
C
opposable
D
long
medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option C
Biological Concept & Syllabus Guide
The correct answer is C. Opposable.
Monkeys have opposable thumbs (or digits), which means they can rotate their thumbs to touch their other fingers. This adaptation allows them to:
- Grasp branches and climb through trees
- Hold onto food or objects
- Perform various manipulative tasks
Opposable thumbs are a key adaptation for arboreal (tree-dwelling) primates like monkeys!

Population Ecology, Habitats & Conservation
Solution
In a field experiment, the frequency of water leaf was observed to be 48 after 20 tosses of a 2m\(^2\) quadrat. What is the density of the plants in the field?
A
1.2 per m2
B
2.4 per m2
C
4.8 per m2
D
9.6 per m2
medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option A
Biological Concept & Syllabus Guide
The formula for plant population density is plant population = density \times area. You can also calculate plant population density by dividing the number of plants by the area they cover.
Given:
Plant population(Frequency of water leaf) = 48
Total area sampled = 20 tosses x 2m\(^2\) = 40 m\(^2\)
Density = \(\frac{frequency}{total area sampled}\)
= \(\frac{48}{40}\)
= 1.2 per m\(^2\)
