The range has many of Earth\'s highest peaks, including the highest, Mount Everest in (Nepal-China)border. The Himalayas include over fifty mountains exceeding 7,200 m (23,600 ft) in elevation, including ten of the fourteen 8,000-metre peaks. By contrast, the highest peak outside Asia (Aconcagua, in the Andes) is 6,961 m (22,838 ft) tall.[1]Lifted by the subduction of the Indian tectonic plate under the Eurasian Plate, the Himalayan mountain range runs west-northwest to east-southeast in an arc 2,400 km (1,500 mi) long.[2] Its western anchor, Nanga Parbat, lies just south of the northernmost bend of the Indus river. Its eastern anchor, Namcha Barwa, is just west of the great bend of the Yarlung Tsangpo River (upper stream of the Brahmaputra River). The Himalayan range is bordered on the northwest by the Karakoram and the Hindu Kush ranges. To the north, the chain is separated from the Tibetan Plateau by a 50–60 km (31–37 mi) wide tectonic valley called the Indus-Tsangpo Suture.[3] Towards the south the arc of the Himalaya is ringed by the very low Indo-Gangetic Plain.[4] The range varies in width from 350 km (220 mi) in the west (Pakistan) to 150 km (93 mi) in the east (Arunachal Pradesh).[5]The Himalayas are inhabited by 52.7 million people,[5] and are spread across five countries: Bhutan, China, India, Nepal and Pakistan. The Hindu Kush range in Afghanistan[6] and Hkakabo Razi in Myanmar are normally not included, but they are both (with the addition of Bangladesh) part of the greater Hindu Kush Himalayan (HKH) river system.[7][full citation needed | |

| Answer» All man-made goods which are used for further production of wealth are included in capital. Thus, it is man-made material source of production. Alternatively, all man-made aids to production, which are not consumed/or their own sake, are termed as capital.It is the produced means of production. Examples are—machines, tools, buildings, roads, bridges, raw material, trucks, factories, etc. An increase in the capital of an economy means an increase in the productive capacity of the economy.

Why it is difficult to repay the loan by small farmers? |
|
Answer» They have to take loan from large landowners for seeds and other implements.Sometimes,there are subsistence crisis or bad harvest . That\'s why they are not able to pay loans Small farmers have no capital and have to arrange for capital by taking loans from large farmers on a very high interest rate. In addition, the banks do not provide them with loans because they lack proper documents and collaterals such as house, livestock or nay other property to guarantee to obtain a loan.So the repayment of loan is crucially dependent on the income from farming. If there is failure in crop production then the repayment of the loan will become impossible. Hence, the small farmers have to sell part of the land to repay the loan. Credit instead of helping the small farmers made the situation still more worst and pushed the borrower into debt trap. |

Differentiate between organised znd unorganized sector |
|
Answer» \xa0 Following are the differences between the organised and unorganised sector: \xa0 \tOrganised sectorUnorganised sectorComprises enterprises where the term of employment is regular and the job is assured.Comprises small units where jobs are not regular and hence the job is not assured.Companies are registered by the government and have to follow rules and regulations.Companies are outside the control of the government. They have rules and regulations, but these are not followed.Employees in the organised sector have fixed working hours and they are paid if they work overtime.Workers in the unorganised sector are paid low wages which are not regular. There is no provision of payment if they work overtime.Employees in the organised sector get social security benefits such pension, provident fund, paid leave, sick leave etc.Workers in the unorganised sector do not get benefits such as pension and provident fund. There are no paid leaves and no leaves due to sickness.Workers in the organised sector are paid a fixed salary.Workers in the unorganised sector are not paid a fixed salary.\tThe sector, which is registered with the government is called an organised sector. In this sector, people get assured work, and the employment terms are\xa0fixed and regular. A number of acts apply to the enterprises, schools and hospitals covered under the organised sector. Entry into the organised sector is very difficult as proper registration of the entity is required. The sector is regulated and taxed by the government.There are some benefits provided to the employees working under organised sector like they get the advantage of job security, add on benefits are provided like various allowances and perquisites. They get a fixed monthly payment, working hours and hike on salary at regular intervals.Definition of Unorganised SectorThe sector which is not registered with the government and whose terms of employment are not fixed and regular is considered as unorganised sector.\xa0In this sector, no government rules and regulations are followed. Entry to such sector is quite easy as it does not require any affiliation or registration. The government does not regulate the\xa0unorganised sector, and hence taxes are not levied. This sector includes those small size enterprises, workshops where there are low skill and unproductive employment.The working hours of workers are not fixed. Moreover, sometimes they have to work on Sundays and holidays. They get daily wages for their work, which is comparatively less than the pay prescribed by the government.Key Differences Between Organised and Unorganised SectorThe difference between organised and unorganised sector can be drawn clearly on the following grounds:Organised Sector is a sector where the employment terms are fixed and regular, and the employees get assured work. Unorganised sector is one where\xa0the employment terms are not fixed and regular, as well as the enterprises, are not registered with the government.A number of acts apply to an organised sector like Factories Act, Bonus Act, PF Act, Minimum Wages Act, etc. whereas unorganised sector is not governed by any such act.The government rules are strictly followed in the organised sector, which is not in the case of unorganised sector.In organised sector, the employees draw regular monthly salaries. On the other hand, in the unorganised sector, the workers are paid on a daily basis.Job security exists in the organised sector, but not in the unorganised sector.The organised sector, provide additional remuneration to employees for overtime. Conversely, there is no such provision for overtime in case of the unorganised sector.In organised sector, the salaries of employees are as per government norms. In contrast to an unorganised sector where wages are below, what is\xa0prescribed by the government.In organised sectors, workers get a hike on salary, once in a while. As opposed to an Unorganised sector where the salaries or workers are rarely hiked.Employees get add-on benefits like medical facilities, pension, leave travel compensation, etc. in the organised sector, which is not provided to the\xa0employees working in unorganised sector |

Who were considered as active citizens in in France during French revolutions |
|
Answer» Only men above 25 years old who payed the taxes equal to atleast 3 days of labourer\'s wages were given the status of active citizens. (that time their population was 4 million) Only men above 25 years old who payed the taxes equal to atleast 3 days of labourer\'s wages were given the status of active citizens. (that time their population was 4 million) Only men above 25 years old who payed the taxes equal to atleast 3 days of labourer\'s wages were given the status of active citizens. (that time their population was 4 million) In 1791, the Legislative Assembly was chosen by a process of indirect\xa0election; the Electors of the Assembly were themselves elected by "active" citizens, male citizens whose annual taxes equalled the local wages paid for three days of labour. This disenfranchised about half of the male citizens of France. |

Write a note on Directory |
| Answer» After the fall of Robespierre\'s government, the wealthier middle classes came forward to seize power. A new constitution was introduced which denied the vote to non-propertied sections of the society. It provided for two elected legislative councils. These then appointed a Directory, an executive made up of five members. This was meant as a safeguard against the concentration of power in a one man executive as under the Jacobins. However, the Directors often clashed with the legislative councils, who then sought to dismiss them. Thus, the Directory became the victim of political instability which paved the way for the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. | |

What factors are responsible the distribution of plants and animals in India |
| Answer» Relief (Land and soil) and Climate (Temperature, humidity, photoperiod and precipitation) are the factors which are responsible for the distribution of plants and animals in India.(i)\xa0Land:. Land affects the natural vegetation directly and indirectly. The nature of land influences the type of vegetation. The fertile level is generally devoted to agriculture. The undulating and rough terrains are areas where grassland and woodland develop and give shelter to a variety of wildlife,(ii)\xa0Soil: Different types of soil provide basis for different types of vegetation. The sandy soils of the desert support cactus and thorny bushes while wet marshy, deltaic soils support mangroves and deltaic vegetation. The hill slopes with some depth of soil have conical trees..(iii)\xa0Temperature: Temperature along with humidity in the air, precipitation and soil determine the character and extent of vegetation. On the slopes of the Himalayas and the hills of the peninsula above the height of 915 metres, the fall in temperature affects the types of vegetation and its growth and changes it from tropical to subtropical temperature and alpine vegetation.(iv)\xa0Sunlight: The variation in duration of sunlight at different places also affect the growth of trees. Due to longer duration in sunlight, trees grow faster in summers..(v)\xa0Precipitation: In India almost the entire rainfall is brought in by the advancing southwest monsoon (from June to September) and retreating north-east monsoons. Areas of heavy rainfall have more dense vegetation as compared to other areas of less rainfall. | |

Give economic importance of monsoon in India |
| Answer» \tAlthough the monsoon winds are irregular and uncertain, they unify the entire country. The farmers eagerly wait for the arrival of rainfall. Rainfall provides the water required to set agricultural activities in motion. Its arrival is welcomed with the celebration of festivals, singing and dancing.\tA large number of farmers depend upon monsoon-rains to meet the food requirement of their family. They engage in agricultural activities not only to sell the crops, but for their own needs.\tNormal rainfall is essential for adequate agricultural output. In a large country like India, it is essential to maintain the food prices. Food inflation may destabilize the entire nation. The food prices depend upon the agricultural output.\tIt is only through rains in the Monsoon season that water requirements of people are fulfilled. Rainfall also increases the water table in the region. | |

Describe the effect of temperature and precipitation on vegetation |
|
Answer» In the present study, the high-altitude vegetation dynamics of natural forest cover were analyzed to find the effect of local hydrology for about 10 years. Vegetation dynamics in four different topographical and climatic conditions in India were studied using normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) data from vegetation sensor of SPOT satellite, and daily temperature and precipitation data from Asian Precipitation–Highly Resolved Observational Data Integration Towards Evaluation project. The main objective was to understand how and to what extent the natural vegetation reciprocates in various climatic conditions. First, the vegetation data was denoised by using empirical mode decomposition technique. The relation between the vegetation growth and hydrological parameters was studied to find the anomalies. Then, the wavelet analysis of the hydrological data was carried out to find the frequency and extent of the anomalies. Finally, nonparametric Mann–Kendall trend analysis and Sen’s slope analysis were applied to find the trend of the vegetation, temperature, and precipitation dynamics. Results indicate that the growth of the vegetation starts when the average temperature is 10 °C or higher. Beyond that the increase in temperature may have a negligible effect on growth of vegetation. The vegetation also shows positive change in monthly NDVI with the increase in precipitation depending forest type and local climate. However, with excessive rainfall, a declining trend in vegetation growth was observed. The NDVI data show positive trend in all four sites. In northern region, the temperature showed positive trend, while precipitation had negative trend. In eastern and western regions, the temperature had negative trend and precipitation had positive trend. TemperatureTemperature affects the growth of natural vegetation. Temperature affects humidity, precipitation and the type of soil. We find the growth of conical-shaped trees at higher altitudes. At much higher altitudes, the vegetation becomes scarce because of extremely cold conditions.PrecipitationPrecipitation affects the growth of natural vegetation. Areas receiving high rainfall, such as the equatorial regions, experience rich growth of vegetation. Vegetation cover is sparse in regions such as hot and cold deserts which receive less than 25 cm of rainfall. |

Explain in detail about stalinism |
| Answer» Lenin headed the Soviet Union till his death in 1924. Joseph Stalin took over the reins from him.\xa0There was acute shortage of grain in 1927. The government had fixed the price of grain but the peasants did not want to sell to the government at these prices.Rich peasants or ‘kulaks’ were raided and grain stocks confiscated. Stalin enforced collectivization of farms as solution to grain shortage.Peasants were forced to work in collective farms called ‘kolkhoz’ sharing the profits equally.This was not entirely successful as the production of grain did not increase immediately. In 1930, the Soviet Union faced one of the worst famines in history leaving over 4 million people dead. | |

In spite of the harsh terms, the Weimar Republic accepted the humiliating treaty, thereby making it unpopular amongst the German masses.→ Economic Crisis:The German state was financially crippled due to overwhelming war debts which had to be paid in gold. Subsequently god reserves depleted and value of German mark fell. Prices of essential goods rose dramatically.→ Political defects:The Weimar Republic was weak due to inherent constitutional irregularities such as proportional representation and Article 48 (which gave the President the power to impose emergency and rule by decree). The democratic parliamentary system seemed to give the people no solutions or benefits in the times of the severe economic crisis.\xa0For more questions click here :https://mycbseguide.com/blog/ncert-solutions-for-class-9-social-science-history-nazism-and-the-rise-of-hitler/ | |
