5. Assign 1 mark for each correct answer.
A. Jaws like in Picture 1 are good for eating flesh while jaws like in Picture 2 are good for
eating plants.
B. Answers may vary. Sample answer:
A hen gives us eggs and meat whereas a cow gives us milk.
C. A swing shows oscillatory and periodic motion whereas the movement of the Earth
around the sun shows circular and periodic motion.
6. The plants are beneficial to us because the plants provide us food, air, rainfall, timber and other products are obtained from them. The plants help us in fighting with global warming and also provide rainfall to us. It also helps us in fighting against many harmful diseases by providing herbal plants. It also provide us timber for making furniture and other household goods and also help in providing sports equipments

7. Assign marks as per the given criteria.
CRITERIA MARKS
A. Correctly identifies the motion (0.5 marks each)
Correctly writes the difference between the two types of motion (1 mark) 2
B. Correctly identifies the motion (0.5 marks each)
Correctly writes the difference between the two types of motion (1 mark) 2
TOTAL (4 Marks) 4
A.
Examples a. A car turning at a cross
road b. A train moving on a
straight track
Type of motion (Rectilinear/Curvilinear)
Curvilinear Rectilinear
1 difference between these two types of motion
Curvilinear motion is the motion along a curved path
while rectilinear motion is the motion along a straight
path.
B.
Examples a. Motion of a fan b. Motion of the moon
around the Earth
Type of motion (Rotational/Circular)
Rotational Circular
1 difference between these two types of motion
Rotational motion is the motion around a fixed axis
while circular motion is the motion of a body in a
circular path.

A. Weight is not a fundamental quantity because it is dependent on the mass of an object.
B.
Object Mass of the object in SI unit
A 2000 grams brick
1 gram = 1
1000 grams
Mass of brick = 2000 grams
= 2000
1000 kilograms
= 2 kg
A 2 tonnes wooden log
1 tonne = 1000 kilograms
Mass of wooden log = 2 tonnes
= 2 × 1000 kilograms
= 2000 kg
A 450 quintals rice bag
1 quintal = 100 kilograms
Mass of rice bag = 450 quintals
= 450 × 100 kilograms
= 45000 kg
C. The weight of the stone will increase by 2.5 times on Jupiter.
10. Assign marks as per the given criteria.
CRITERIA MARKS
A. Correctly explains the types of nutrition (1 mark each) 4
B. Correctly writes how autotrophic nutrition happens (1 mark)
Correctly writes how heterotrophic nutrition happens (1 mark) 2
TOTAL (6 Marks) 6
A.
Type of nutrition How do the plants obtain nutrition?
Photosynthesis A green plant gets its nutrition by making its own food
using sunlight, water and carbon dioxide.
Parasitism A cuscuta plant derives its nutrition from the host plant
by attaching itself to the host with its hook-like
structures.
Saprophytic nutrition Mushrooms feed on dead organic matter by releasing

digestive juices that break it down to simpler
substances.
Insectivorous nutrition A Venus flytrap plant feeds on insects by trapping
them using its leaves.
B. A Venus flytrap shows autotrophic nutrition because it has green leaves. It also shows
heterotrophic nutrition because it feeds on other organisms like insects to obtain
nitrogen.
11. Assign marks as per the given criteria.
CRITERIA MARKS
A. a. Correctly writes the difference in the experiments (1 mark each)
b. Correctly identifies the experiment (1 mark)
Writes the correct reason (1 mark)

B. Correctly predicts the results (1 mark each)
Writes a logical reason for the prediction (1 mark each) 4
C. Correctly writes the answer 2
TOTAL (10 Marks) 10
A. a.
Experiment 1 Experiment 2
In this experiment, current is passed
through the iron nail to make it into an
artificial magnet.
In this experiment, the iron nail is
rubbed with a magnet several times to
make it into an artificial magnet.
b. Experiment 1 will result in a temporary magnet because the iron nail will lose its
magnetism as soon as the current flow stops.

B.
Experiments What will happen? Why will it happen?
The 2 magnets will repel or
move away from each
other.
This happens because like
poles of two magnets
always repel.
The iron nail will get
attracted to the magnet.
This is because iron is a
magnetic material.
C. When a magnet is freely suspended, it will spin and come to rest in a north-south
direction. This means that the north pole of the magnet points to the geographic north
and the south pole of the magnet points to the geographic south; thus, helping us to
know the directions.
