Water passes through the plasma membrane both inwardly as well as outwardly. Net movement. Occurs along its concentration gradient, from the side of pure water or dilute solution (high water concentration) to cell side of concentrated solution (low water concentration). A cell placed in dilute solution (hypotonic solution) will show endosmosis because the external solution has higher concentration of water’ A cell placed in hypertonic solution (i.e., concentrated solution) will show exosmosis because cell sap has higher concentration of water.

(a) At present there is about 130 million hectares of degraded land in India as mentioned below:
(i) Forest’ degraded area – 28%
(ii) Water eroded area – 56%
(iii) Wind eroded area – 10%
(iv) Saline and Alkaline land – 6%
(b) Following factors/human factors are responsible for land degradation in India:
(l) Mining: Mining sites are abandoned after excavation work is complete leaving deep scars and traces of over burdening. In states of Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh and
Orissa deforestation due to mining have caused severe land degradation.
(ii) Overgrazing: In states like Gujarat, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra overgrazing is the main reason for land degradation.
(iii) Over-irrigation: In the states of Punjab, Haryana, Western Uttar Pradesh, over irrigation is responsible for land degradation due to water logging leading to increase in salinity and alkalinity in the soil.
(iv) The mineral processing like grinding of limestone for cement industry generate dust in the atmosphere. It retards the process of infiltration of water into soil after it settles down on the land. Thus industrial effluents as waste have become a major source of land and water pollution in many parts of the country.
Why was cricket codified?
Cricket gave itself rules and regulations so that it could be played in a uniform and standardised way well before team games like soccer and hockey.

The length of the pitch is 22 yards but the size or shape of the ground is not specified.

The ball was bowled underarms, along the ground and the curve at the end of the bat gave the batsman the best chance of making contact.

The ink slowly moves in all directions and ultimately makes the water uniformly coloured. This happens due to diffusion.
