Which of the following is a type of cell division that occurs during early embryonic development?

  1. Mitosis

  2. Meiosis

  3. Cytokinesis

  4. Gastrulation


Correct Option:
Explanation:

Cleavage is a type of cell division that occurs during early embryonic development, resulting in the formation of smaller cells called blastomeres.

The process by which a single-celled zygote develops into a multicellular embryo is called:

  1. Fertilization

  2. Cleavage

  3. Gastrulation

  4. Organogenesis


Correct Option:
Explanation:

Embryogenesis is the process by which a single-celled zygote develops into a multicellular embryo.

Which of the following is the process by which the three germ layers (ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm) are formed during embryonic development?

  1. Fertilization

  2. Cleavage

  3. Gastrulation

  4. Organogenesis


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Gastrulation is the process by which the three germ layers (ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm) are formed during embryonic development.

The process by which tissues and organs are formed from the three germ layers during embryonic development is called:

  1. Fertilization

  2. Cleavage

  3. Gastrulation

  4. Organogenesis


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Organogenesis is the process by which tissues and organs are formed from the three germ layers during embryonic development.

Which of the following is a type of stem cell that can differentiate into any type of cell in the body?

  1. Totipotent

  2. Pluripotent

  3. Multipotent

  4. Unipotent


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Totipotent stem cells are a type of stem cell that can differentiate into any type of cell in the body.

The process by which stem cells differentiate into specialized cells is called:

  1. Fertilization

  2. Cleavage

  3. Gastrulation

  4. Differentiation


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Differentiation is the process by which stem cells differentiate into specialized cells.

Which of the following is a type of conservation that aims to protect species and their habitats from extinction?

  1. Sustainable Development

  2. Biodiversity Conservation

  3. Ecosystem Management

  4. Habitat Restoration


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Biodiversity conservation is a type of conservation that aims to protect species and their habitats from extinction.

The process of restoring degraded habitats to their natural state is called:

  1. Sustainable Development

  2. Biodiversity Conservation

  3. Ecosystem Management

  4. Habitat Restoration


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Habitat restoration is the process of restoring degraded habitats to their natural state.

Which of the following is a type of conservation that aims to manage human activities to ensure the sustainable use of natural resources?

  1. Sustainable Development

  2. Biodiversity Conservation

  3. Ecosystem Management

  4. Habitat Restoration


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Sustainable development is a type of conservation that aims to manage human activities to ensure the sustainable use of natural resources.

The process of managing ecosystems to maintain their biodiversity and ecological functions is called:

  1. Sustainable Development

  2. Biodiversity Conservation

  3. Ecosystem Management

  4. Habitat Restoration


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Ecosystem management is the process of managing ecosystems to maintain their biodiversity and ecological functions.

Which of the following is a type of conservation that aims to protect endangered species by breeding them in captivity?

  1. Sustainable Development

  2. Biodiversity Conservation

  3. Captive Breeding

  4. Habitat Restoration


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Captive breeding is a type of conservation that aims to protect endangered species by breeding them in captivity.

The process of reintroducing captive-bred animals into their natural habitats is called:

  1. Sustainable Development

  2. Biodiversity Conservation

  3. Captive Breeding

  4. Reintroduction


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Reintroduction is the process of reintroducing captive-bred animals into their natural habitats.

Which of the following is a type of conservation that aims to protect species and their habitats by establishing protected areas?

  1. Sustainable Development

  2. Biodiversity Conservation

  3. Protected Areas

  4. Habitat Restoration


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Protected areas are a type of conservation that aims to protect species and their habitats by establishing protected areas.

The process of managing human activities to minimize their impact on the environment is called:

  1. Sustainable Development

  2. Biodiversity Conservation

  3. Ecosystem Management

  4. Environmental Impact Assessment


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Environmental impact assessment is the process of managing human activities to minimize their impact on the environment.

Which of the following is a type of conservation that aims to reduce the consumption of natural resources and promote the use of renewable energy sources?

  1. Sustainable Development

  2. Biodiversity Conservation

  3. Renewable Energy

  4. Habitat Restoration


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Sustainable development is a type of conservation that aims to reduce the consumption of natural resources and promote the use of renewable energy sources.
