CAT 2018 Question: The conceptualization of landscape as a geometric object first occurred in Europe and is historically related to the European conceptualization of the organism, particularly the human body, as a geometric object with parts having a rational, three-dimensional organization and integration. The European idea of landscape appeared before the science of landscape emerged, and it is no coincidence that Renaissance artists such as Leonardo da Vinci, who studied the structure of the human body, also facilitated an understanding of the structure of landscape. Landscape which had been a subordinate background to religious or historical narratives, became an independent genre or subject of art by the end of sixteenth century or the beginning of the seventeenth century.
1. Landscape became a major subject of art at the turn of the sixteenth century.
2. The three-dimensional understanding of the organism in Europe led to a similar approach towards the understanding of landscape.
3. The study of landscape as an independent genre was aided by the Renaissance artists.
4. The Renaissance artists were responsible for the study of landscape as a subject of art.
My usual strategy for summary questions is to note the Introduction, subsequent idea & lastly conclusion. But in the options given, option 2 states introduction and option 3 states the conclusion. There is no single statement which covers all the points. In such cases, what to do? Coclusion gets the higher weightage?
A keystone species is a species that has a disproportionately large effect on its natural environment relative to its abundance. It is a strongly interacting species whose top-down effect on species diversity and competition is large relative to its biomass dominance within a functional group. A classic keystone species is a predator that prevents a particular herbivorous species from eliminating dominant plant species. If prey numbers are low, keystone predators can be even less abundant and still be effective. Yet without the predators, the herbivorous prey would explode in numbers, wipe out the dominant plants, and dramatically alter the character of the ecosystem.
1) A keystoner predator needs to be in abundance to save an ecosystem
2) In the presence of herbivorous prey, keystone species face the extintion threat.
3) An ecosystem without keystone predators is likely to become unstable
4) A keystone predator helps conserve the ecosystem it dwells in
