Question Discussion & Solution

​The correct answer is Sirohi.

• The district of Rajasthan, where the tropical dry deciduous forests are not found in Sirohi.

Key Points

• Biodiversity of Rajasthan:
  • Though a large percentage of the total area is desert and even though there is little forest cover, Rajasthan has rich and varied flora and fauna.
  • The natural vegetation is classed as Northern Desert Thorn Forest (Champion 1936).
  • These occur in small clumps scattered in more or less open forms.
  • The density and size of patches increase from west to east following the increase in rainfall.
  • The Northwestern thorn scrub forests lie in a band around the Thar Desert, between the desert and the Aravallis.
  • The Aravalli and the south-eastern region is home to the dry deciduous forests, with tropical dry broadleaf forests that include teak, Acacia, and other trees. Hence Sirohi is the correct answer.
  • The hilly ‘Vagad’ region lies in southernmost Rajasthan.
  • Vagad is the wettest region in Rajasthan, and the most heavily forested.
  • North of ‘Vagad’ lies the Mewar region, home to the cities of Udaipur and Chittaurgarh.
  • All these regions have varied flora and fauna distinct to the region.

 The correct answer is Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory.

Key Points

• EEPROM stands for Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory.
• It is a non-volatile memory in which the information stored Is retained even after the power goes off.
• A special type of PROM in which the information stored in it can be erased by exposing it to an electrical charge at one byte at a time. 
• EEPROM generally offers excellent capabilities and performance.
• EEPROMs are constructed as arrays of floating-gate transistors.

Key Points 

• The biosphere reserves are the areas meant for the conservation of biodiversity.
• These are large areas of protected land for the conservation of wildlife, plant and animal resources and traditional life of the tribals living in the area.
• The biosphere reserves help to maintain the biodiversity and culture of that area.
• A biosphere reserve may also contain other protected areas.
• The Pachmarhi Biosphere Reserve consists of one national park named Satpura and two wildlife sanctuaries named Bori and Pachmarhi
