35. (B) Earth’s gravity keeps us, and all other
objects on the ground.
36. (B) Sea water evaporates and rises into the
sky as water vapour (liquid  gas). The
water vapour in the clouds condenses
to form water droplets and drop on the
earth as rain (gas  liquid).
37. (B) A standing boy requires less energy.
38. (C) Liquids have definite volume and has
no definite shape.
39. (B) Dolphin is a mammal and penguin is a

are rich in proteins.
47. (A) Moon is a natural satellite the rotate on
its axis and cause high & low tides and
it reflects sunlight.
48. (A) When liquids mix together such that
they do not dissolve completely in each
other they are called immiscible liquids.
49. (C) Dew drops on the leaf is due to
condensation of water vapour in air.
50. (B) Terrace farming is usually done in hilly
mountainous regions.
51. (B) A push or a pull is called the force.
52. (B) Front legs in animals are called as
forelimbs.
53. (B) Snakes moves with the help of scales.
54. (C) Medulla controls heart beat, breathing,
swallowing and sneezing.
55. (D) Our shoulder has a ball and socket joint
which allows circular movements. For
example, when you bowl while playing
cricket, you rotate your arm in full circle.
This movement is made possible
because of the ball and socket at the
shoulder. The shoulder bone ends in a
cap-like socket and the ball like head of
the upper arm bone fits into this socket.
