More than one-fifth of reptile species across the globe are threatened with extinction, with those living in forests

found to be in far greater danger than those inhabiting arid areas, a new study reports. In the most comprehensive

extinction-risk assessment ever carried out on reptiles, researchers discovered that as many as 21.1% of all known

species were at risk. The researchers published their findings on April 27 in the journal Nature. Prior to this new

research, there had been no formal attempt to determine how many reptiles were at risk of extinction. Instead,

conservationists relied on the International Union for Conservation of Nature's (IUCN) Red List of Threatened

Species, which provides the risk status of birds, mammals and amphibians.

By using the Red List's criteria, the study researchers discovered 1,829 out of 10,196 reptile species were vulnerable,

endangered or critically endangered — a total of 21.1% of the known species. They also found that 57.9% of turtles

and 50% of crocodiles are threatened; overall, 40.7% of amphibians, 25.4% of mammals and 13.6% of birds are

considered threatened by the IUCN, according to the Red List. The global study was carried out over 15 years with

the help of 961 researchers representing 24 countries across six continents. For the study, researchers assessed

preexisting surveys and datasets of turtles, crocodiles, lizards, snakes and tuatara in Africa, the Americas, Asia,

Australia, the Caribbean, Europe and Oceania. Tuatara are endemic to New Zealand and are considered to be the

last survivors of an order of reptiles that can be "traced back to the Triassic period, according to the New Zealand

Department of Conservation.

The authors said reptiles were being threatened globally by agriculture, logging, urban development and invasive

species. This would explain why the researchers found that 30% of reptiles living in forests were at risk of extinction
RBI Assistant Mains 2022 Previous Year Paper

compared to 14% of reptiles living in arid habitats. The researchers also found that threatened reptiles were

concentrated in Southeast Asia, West Africa, northern Madagascar, the Northern Andes and the Caribbean — a

finding that will enable conservationists to concentrate their efforts in places with the greatest need.

The study authors also narrowed down the primary threats for different groups of reptiles. For instance, lizards that

live on islands are threatened by predators that have been introduced there by people. By comparison hunting and

poaching are the main threats to turtles and crocodiles, the IUCN said. How climate change is threatening reptiles is

not known for certain due to a lack of long-term studies, the authors said. However, they wrote in the paper that

climate change is a "looming threat" because it reduces the window when temperatures are right for the cold-

blooded animals to forage, and it can also alter the sex ratios of offspring in species where that is determined by

temperature.

Question No. 41

Which of the following statements is true, according to the report mentioned in the passage?

(i)                  More than one-fifth of all animal species on the earth face the threat of extinction.

(ii)                Those animals living in forest are more vulnerable than those living in arid regions.

concentrated in Southeast Asia, West Africa, northern Madagascar, the Northern Andes and the Caribbean — a

finding that will enable conservationists to concentrate their efforts in places with the greatest need.

The study authors also narrowed down the primary threats for different groups of reptiles. For instance, lizards that

live on islands are threatened by predators that have been introduced there by people. By comparison hunting and

poaching are the main threats to turtles and crocodiles, the IUCN said. How climate change is threatening reptiles is

not known for certain due to a lack of long-term studies, the authors said. However, they wrote in the paper that

climate change is a "looming threat" because it reduces the window when temperatures are right for the cold-

blooded animals to forage, and it can also alter the sex ratios of offspring in species where that is determined by

temperature.

RBI Assistant Mains 2022 Previous Year Paper

million hectare under bamboo cultivation.

China has better productivity with only six million hectares under bamboo cultivation. In view of the China’s leap in

bamboo growing, the headquarters of the International Network for Bamboo and Rattan was shifted to Beijing

from Delhi a few years ago. Though 44 countries report growing bamboo, three - China, India and Myanmar -

account for 80% of bamboo resources. Though bamboo comes from the grass family (Poaceae), it is considered a

woody grass and qualifies as a structural material far superior in strength than timber yielded by several species of

trees. In fact, it excels over steel when it comes to volume versus strength ratio. This has led China to deploy wings

made out of bamboo for wind turbines as they provide 14% advantage over steel. In fact, in view of its immense

tensile strength (resistance against being pulled apart), China is using the material for tunnels, ducts and pipes

(after normally required treatment). This has been in evidence along the Belt and Road Initiative being built across

Central Asia.

Due to its fast-growing property, bamboo is treated as a cash crop as some varieties even report a metre’s growth

in 24 hours in the initial stages. It can attain a height of 40 to 60 feet in four to five years. The elastic nature of the

bamboo plant allows it to withstand stormy winds. Besides, bamboo cultivation yields enormous environmental

dividends. It is known to produce 35% more oxygen than trees. It yields enormous amount of biomass ideal for pulp

industry. Though its role in purifying the air is well known, the plantation owners would like more economic uses of

the material for expanding the area under its cultivation.

Question No. 75

Which of the following is true regarding India’s bamboo cultivation?

Options :

1. In terms of total area under bamboo cultivation, India stands first and China comes only after India.

in 24 hours in the initial stages. It can attain a height of 40 to 60 feet in four to five years. The elastic nature of the

bamboo plant allows it to withstand stormy winds. Besides, bamboo cultivation yields enormous environmental

dividends. It is known to produce 35% more oxygen than trees. It yields enormous amount of biomass ideal for pulp

industry. Though its role in purifying the air is well known, the plantation owners would like more economic uses of

the material for expanding the area under its cultivation.

Question No. 78
RBI Assistant Mains 2022 Previous Year Paper

According to the passage, why is China using bamboo to make wings for wind turbines?

Options :

1. It is cheaper compared to steel.

2. Although they have less durability, they are available easily.

3. Bamboo has high tensile strength and has an advantage over steel.

4. Bamboo is light weight and can be transported easily.

5. All of these

Answer : Bamboo has high tensile strength and has an advantage over steel.

Direction:
Read the passage and answer the questions that follow.

India is the second largest bamboo-growing nation after China. Although the area under bamboo cultivation in

India is larger than China, the latter dominates the global market supplying 83% of bamboo products. India’s share

stands at a measly $4.5 billion despite it being the largest repository of the bamboo resources with almost 14

million hectare under bamboo cultivation.

China has better productivity with only six million hectares under bamboo cultivation. In view of the China’s leap in

bamboo growing, the headquarters of the International Network for Bamboo and Rattan was shifted to Beijing

from Delhi a few years ago. Though 44 countries report growing bamboo, three - China, India and Myanmar -

account for 80% of bamboo resources. Though bamboo comes from the grass family (Poaceae), it is considered a

woody grass and qualifies as a structural material far superior in strength than timber yielded by several species of

trees. In fact, it excels over steel when it comes to volume versus strength ratio. This has led China to deploy wings

made out of bamboo for wind turbines as they provide 14% advantage over steel. In fact, in view of its immense

tensile strength (resistance against being pulled apart), China is using the material for tunnels, ducts and pipes

(after normally required treatment). This has been in evidence along the Belt and Road Initiative being built across

Central Asia.
