GRAMMAR
SENTENCES

There are four types of sentences in the English language: declarative, exclamatory, imperative, and
interrogatory. Each sentence type serves a different purpose. Understanding the different sentence types and
how to use them will help improve your writing skills.

What is a sentence?

A set of words that is complete in itself, typically containing a subject and predicate, conveying a statement,
question, exclamation, or command.

Types of sentences:

1. Declarative Sentence - A declarative sentence simply makes a statement or expresses an opinion. In

other words, it makes a declaration. This kind of sentence ends with a period.

Examples of this sentence type:

“I want to be a good writer.” (makes a statement)

“My friend is a really good writer.” (expresses an opinion)

2. Imperative Sentence - An imperative sentence gives a command or makes a request. It usually ends with
a period but can, under certain circumstances, end with an exclamation point.

Examples of this sentence type:

“Please sit down.”

“I need you to sit down now!”

3. Interrogative Sentence - An interrogative sentence asks a question. This type of sentence often begins
with who, what, where, when, why, how, or do, and it ends with a question mark.

Examples of this sentence type:

“When are you going to turn in your writing assignment?”

“Do you know what the weather will be tomorrow?”

4. Exclamatory Sentence- An exclamatory sentence is a sentence that expresses great emotion such as
excitement, surprise, happiness and anger, and ends with an exclamation point.

Examples of this sentence type:

“It is too dangerous to climb that mountain!”

“I got an A on my book report!”

C. Answer the following

Q1. What is a seed coat? What is its function?

A1. The outer covering of the seed is called seed coat. It protects the baby plant inside the seed.

Q2. What is germination? List the conditions necessary for germination to take place.
A2. The process by which a seed produces a new plant is called germination. All seeds need air, water, and
warmth to germinate into seedlings. If a seed does not receive any one of the three, it will not germinate.

Q3. Mention the different ways in which seeds get dispersed.

A3. The different ways by which the seeds can be dispersed are –
1. Dispersal by wind – Seeds of certain plants are light in weight and have wing like structures or
hair on them. These seeds are easily carried away by the wind from one place to another.
Ex: Maple and dandelion seeds.
2. Dispersal by water – Seeds of certain plants are spongy or have a fibrous covering which help
them to float on water. So, water carries these seeds from one place to another.
Ex: Coconut and lotus.
3. Dispersal by animals – Some seeds have hooks or spines. These seeds stick to the bodies of the
animals and birds, and are thus carried away from the mother plant.
Ex: Cocklebur.
4. Dispersal by explosion – Fruits of some plants burst open when they are ripe and scatter the
seeds in all directions.
Ex: Peas and beans.

Q4. How can we grow new plants from stem cuttings?

A4. Some plants like rose, hibiscus and money plant can grow as a new plant with their stem cutting of the
parent plant.
Steps to grow a new plant from stem cuttings are-
1. The stem is cut at an appropriate place
2. The cut portion of the stem is planted in soil.
3. The stem cutting grows into a new plant if watered regularly.

Q5. Explain the different stages of agriculture?

A5. The practice of growing plants on a large scale for food or other purposes is called agriculture.
The different stages of agriculture are-
1. Ploughing the field
2. Adding the manure or fertilizers to the soil
3. Sowing the seeds
4. The crops are irrigated (watered)
5. The crops are sprayed with chemicals.
6. The crops are harvested.

D. HOTS (High Order Thinking Skills)

Q1. Maya threw some seeds out of the window. Some of those seeds fell on the road. She was
surprised to see that they all germinated. How did the seed germinate without soil?
A1. Yes, seeds can germinate without soil. All seeds need water, oxygen, and proper temperature in
order to germinate. Some germinate better in full light while others require darkness to
germinate. When a seed is exposed to the proper conditions, water and oxygen are taken
in through the seed coat.

Q2. Last year, there was not enough rainfall. Mohanlal’s crop did not do well but his neighbor
Shyamlas’s crop grew very well. What did Shyamlal do that Mohanlal did not do?
A2. Shyamlal grew rabi crops. These crops do not depend on the monsoon, so it grew well. On the other
hand Mohanlal grew kharif crop which is largely depends on monsoon and due to less rain fall it did not
grow well. A particular crop may grow well in one season and may not grow well in another season. That
is why farmers grow different crops in different seasons.

Q3. How does step farming help in controlling floods on the mountains?
A3. Step farming prevents soil erosion and flooding as it does not allow free flow of water and prevents
collection of water.

E. Scientific Skills

Q1. Describe the process of germination with a well labelled diagram.

A1. The process by which a seed grows into a new plant is called germination.
1. When the seeds get all the necessary things like air, water, warmth, space and nutrients from the soil
the process of germination starts.
2. During the early stages the seeds will get food from the cotyledons.
3. The seed coat will break, and a new plant will emerge out of the seed.
4. When the plant will develop a root system it will absorb water and nutrients from the soil.
5. The shoot system of the plant will develop and now the leaves will start preparing food for the plant
therefore the cotyledons will shrink and disappear.

NOTEBOOK WORK

I. Key words.
1. Observatory: A building or place given over to or equipped for observation of natural phenomena (as
in astronomy).
2Parallels: If two or more lines, streets, etc. are parallel, the distance between them is the same all
along their length.

II.Answer the followings.

Q1. How is Globe useful? [MARK THE ANSWER -C. B Page no:01]
Ans: The globe is a small model of the Earth. It is useful because:
a) It shows us the shape and size of the continents, oceans and seas on a smaller scale.
b) It also shows the shape and location of countries, and locations of important cities.

Q2. Why are latitudes and longitudes drawn on the globe? [MARK THE ANSWER -C. B Page no:03]
Ans: To locate the places on the globe, horizontal and vertical lines are drawn on it.
The horizontal lines are drawn parallel to the equator, they go around the Earth. They are known as
latitudes or parallels.
 The vertical lines are semi circles that run from North Pole to South Pole. They are called longitudes or
meridians.

Q3. What is Prime Meridian? [WRITE IN N. B]

Ans: The longitude running through the Old Royal Observatory at Greenwich near London is marked 0°.It
is called the Greenwich Meridian or the Prime Meridian.

Q4. If a place has a latitude of 10°N, is it in the Northern or Southern Hemisphere? [WRITE IN N. B]
Ans: If a place has a latitude of 10° N it will be in Northern Hemisphere.

Q5. We know that the nearer a place is to the poles ,the colder it is likely to be .Which city ,in a)and b)
below, is likely to be colder?
a. City X:latitude 30° N, longitude 25° W, or City Y:latitude 60° N, longitude 20° E
b. City W: latitude 40°S, longitude 75°E, or City Z:latitude 75 °S, longitude 50 °W.
48
[WRITE IN N. B]
Ans. a) City Y
b) City Z

III. HOTS (Higher Order Thinking Skills).

Q1. Are the lengths of the latitudes equal or unequal to each other? Give reasons for your answer.
What about the longitudes? [WRITE IN N. B]
Ans: 1.The lengths of latitudes are unequal to each other because:
 Earth has a spherical shape.
 Thus, equator at the middle of the globe has the longest length
 The latitudes vary according to distance from the equator. They become shorter in length towards the
poles.
Longitudes are equal as the distance between the poles remains the same.

Q2. Can you find the exact location of a place on a globe by using only the latitude? What about the
North and South Poles? [WRITE IN N. B]
Ans: No, we need both the latitude and longitude to locate any place on the map. For finding north and
south poles too we need latitude and longitude. We find the poles at the intersection of equator and prime
meridian.

I. KEY WORDS.
1. Geographer: an expert in the study of the physical features of the earth and its atmosphere, and of human
activity as it affects and is affected by these.
2. Elements: an essential or characteristic part of something abstract.

II. ANSWER THE FOLLOWINGS.

Q1.A globe is the most accurate way to represent the Earth. However, we generally use a map rather
than a globe to study the Earth. Why is this? [MARK THE ANSWER -C. B Page no: 09]
Ans: We generally use a map rather than the globe to study Earth because:
 It is difficult to carry a globe around.
 It is not possible to see all places.
 It cannot show detailed information.

51
Q2. A map of the Earth will have errors in the shape and size of places shown on the map. Why is that
so? [MARK THE ANSWER -C. B Page no: 10]
Ans: The surface cannot be flattened in actual. Thus, there are some errors in the shapes and sizes of land
masses in the maps.

Q3. How is direction usually shown in maps? [WRITE IN N. B]

Ans: To show directions, usually maps are drawn with north at the top. Most maps indicate north with an
arrow marked N. If we know north, it is easy to find other directions.

Q4. What do you understand by the term ‘scale of a map’? [WRITE IN N. B]

Ans: The scale of a map is the ratio between distance shown on the map and the actual distance on the
ground.
Q5. Which standard colours are used in maps? [MARK THE ANSWER -C. B Page no: 13]
Ans: Certain standard colours are used in maps to show physical features of the Earth.
 Water bodies are always shown in blue colour. Deep blue for deep water and light blue
for shallow water.
 Mountains and highlands are shown in brown and yellow colours. Dark brown shows
mountains, light brown shows lower mountains and hills and yellow shows plateau.
 Plains and lowlands are shown in green.

Q6. What are symbols? [WRITE IN N. B]

Ans: To make it easier to show features and places on the map, certain standard symbols are
used in maps. A symbol is a shape or sign that is used to represent something on the Earth
surface.

III. HOTS(High Order Thinking skills).

Q1. A wall map of the Earth has errors because the Earth’s surface is shown as flat. Do you think a
wall map of your neighbourhood will also have similar errors? Why? [WRITE IN N. B]
Ans:Yes. The reason is the map of my neighbourhood also represents a part of the earth drawn on a flat
surface.
Q2. Which map of India will be bigger-one drawn to scale of 1 centimetre: 100 kilometres or one to a
scale of 1centimetre:50 kilometres? Why? [WRITE IN N. B]
Ans: The map drawn to the scale of 1cm: 50km will be bigger. The smaller the scale the
bigger will be the map.
