Q1. Malaria, caused by Plasmodium is often characterised by a high fever recurring every three to four days. Explain why this happens.
Q2. Rural energy shortage has been largely mitigated by biogas plants.
(a) What is the primary flammable gas present in biogas?

(b) For cancer caused by the inheritance of genetic mutations, how will the malignancy spread internally?
Q5. Eicchornia crassipes (commonly known as water hyacinth) is an aquatic plant, native to the Amazon basin. It was introduced to the water bodies of India and other SouthEast Asian countries for industrial use of its fibres in making bags and footwear, as a substrate for biogas production and for its ability to uptake heavy metals from the water bodies. However, Eicchornia has been named the 'terror of Bengal' due to its prolific, invasive growth.
(a) How does the growth of water hyacinth affect the growth of other native species?
(b) There are a host of algae and fungi that form lichens in freshwater lakes. What would be the fate of freshwater snails that feed on such lichens if the algae and fungi are destroyed by the growth of water hyacinth? Mention the scientific term used to denote such threats to biodiversity
