Q.1	In a water quality testing experiment, you're examining a water sample. Upon adding a specific reagent to the sample, it turns blue. What does the colour change of the water sample indicate about its quality in this experiment?
	a) Presence of CO2		b) Neutral pH
	c) High chlorine content		d) Presence of ammonia

Q.2	Deep in the Amazon rainforest, a group of scientists are studying the impact of deforestation on jaguars. They discover that the once continuous forest is now fragmented into smaller, isolated patches. How will this fragmentation MOST likely affect the jaguar population?
	a) Jaguars will have more food available due to increased edge habitat.		b) Jaguars will adapt to smaller territories and maintain stable populations.
	c) Jaguars will be more vulnerable to predators due to reduced cover.		d) Jaguars will migrate to new, untouched areas of the rainforest.

Q.3	A town located near a geothermal hotspot is exploring various uses for geothermal energy. Considering the town's needs and available resources, where could geothermal energy be most efficiently utilised?
	a) Heating residential buildings in cold climates		b) Powering portable electronic devices
	c) Fuelling vehicles for long-distance travel		d) Illuminating streetlights in urban areas

Q.4	A restaurant implements some new practices in their kitchen, such as using a dishwasher efficiently and fixing leaks promptly. What impact does this have on their overall sustainability?
	a) It has no effect on sustainability.		b) It reduces water consumption and contributes positively to sustainability.
	c) It increases water wastage and negatively affects sustainability.		d) It solely improves the restaurant's kitchen hygiene but doesn't impact sustainability.

Q.5	Lisa and Michael are environmental consultants advising a town's energy committee on renewable energy options. The committee is debating between hydroelectric, solar, and wind power for their region's future energy needs. Why might hydroelectric power be considered more versatile than solar or wind power?
	a) Hydroelectric power generates electricity consistently, regardless of weather conditions.		b) Hydroelectric power works in many different regions, unlike solar and wind limited by location.
	c) Hydroelectric power requires larger land areas than solar or wind farms.		d) Solar and wind power have higher energy conversion efficiencies than hydroelectric power.

Q.6	At Greenfield Middle School, an initiative to reduce energy consumption was implemented by installing energy-saving devices. The table given illustrates the electricity and gas consumption before and after the installation of these devices. What is the percentage reduction in electricity consumption after the installation of energy-saving devices?

Investing in public transportation and green spaces can alleviate the problem.		b) Carbon dioxide, the main greenhouse gas from fossil fuels, directly contributes to smog, and the solution lies solely in switching to renewable energy sources like solar and wind.
	c) Nitrogen dioxide and sulphur dioxide from vehicle exhausts and factory emissions combine with sunlight to form harmful smog, which can be tackled by promoting electric vehicles and stricter emission regulations.		d) Smog is primarily caused by natural phenomena like dust storms and forest fires, and the city should focus on preparing for these events rather than blaming fossil fuels.
