HINTS AND SOLUTIONS
1. (C) : The given letters on unscrambling gives 7. (C) : Humming birds are known as the
SQUIRREL. Squirrels have very sharp front helicopters of the bird world because they can
teeth and gnaw their food i.e. they bite their hover in the air at the same spot without
food items like nuts, fruits and seeds, etc moving backward or forward. They are the only
repeatedly. birds who can also fly backward.
2. (D) : The correct labelling of the given figure 8. (B) : All birds cannot fly. Birds like ostrich and
is as follows: penguin are flightless birds. All birds lay eggs.
Flower Most birds build nests to lay eggs and protect
their babies from enemies. Birds do not have
Bud teeth. They use their beaks to eat food.

energy-giving food. Butter contains fats which
provide energy to body.
10. (C) : Six food items are hidden in the grid:
Root
sugar, ghee, meat, egg, milk, banana.
11. (D) : Nylon is not a natural fibre but a man-
made fibre manufactured in factories while wool
is a natural fibre obtained from sheep etc.

17. (A) : Option (A) on unscrambling forms the
word TONGUE. Tongue helps us to taste
various food items.
18. (A) : When there is an eclipse of Moon, Earth 28. (B) : The things slide when the force of friction
is in the middle of Moon and Sun. The Earth
casts a shadow on the Moon.
19. (B) : On watching a ship sailing in the sea
Rohan found that the ship gets disappeared in
parts. This proves that the Earth is spherical
in shape. If the Earth was flat, the whole ship
would have gone out of the sight at the same
time.
20. (B) : Constellation given in the figure X is the 31. (D) : Water fall on the Earth in the form of
Big dipper or Saptarishi. It has seven stars.
21. (D)
22. (C) : The given figure C is a sundial clock.
23. (A)
24. (D) : When a cup full of ice is placed on a
table, the air surrounding it cools down. As we
know, air also contains water vapours. So,
when the air touches the cold surface of the
cup, the water vapour condenses. The
condensation of air results in the formation of
water droplets outside the cup.
25. (C) : The set-up shows that light travels only
in a straight line. Rohan is not able to see light
from the torch because the pipe is zig-zag in
shape and light cannot travel through it.
26. (A) : Sound needs a medium to travel. It travels
fastest in solids, slower in liquids and slowest
in gases. It cannot travel through a vacuum.
Since, space has no air therefore astronauts

need microphones or walkie talkies to talk to
each other in space.
27. (D)
is lesser than the force of push/pull.
29. (C) : Animals breathe in oxygen and give out
carbon dioxide. Plants also take in oxygen and
give out carbon dioxide during night.
30. (D) : Raincoats and gumboots are waterproof.
They are used in rainy season and during
snowfall.
rain. This rainwater flows into the river, ponds,
lakes and oceans. Water gets heated by the
Sun and evaporates from the water bodies in
the form of water vapours. Some of the
rainwater also seeps into the ground.
32. (A)
33. (A) : Soil contains humus, gravel, sand and
clay. Humus makes soil fertile and more
productive.
34. (D) : Figure a shows potato which is an
underground stem. Figure b is onion in which
food is stored in the stem. Figure c shows
ginger stem, a food storage organ of the plant.
d is radish in which food is stored in root.
35. (A) : a is small intestine and digests the food.
b is bone and is a part of skeletal system. It
gives shape to the body and helps in
movement. c represents blood vessels that
transports blood from heart to various parts of
the body. d represents skin.
