An organism X having breathing organs A lives on land. When organism X goes under water, it cannot survive for a long time unless carrying an oxygen cylinder. On the other hand, the organism Y having breathing organs B always lives in water and if taken out of water, it dies after a short while. A third organism Z having breathing organs C and D which lives on the banks of ponds, lakes and rivers can survive on land as well as in water equally well.
  1. What could organism X be? Name the breathing organs A.
  2. What could organism Y be? Name the breathing organs B.
  3. What could organism Z be? Name the breathing organs C and D.
  4. Out of X, Y and Z, which organism is.

A student has three concave mirrors A, B and C of focal lengths 20 cm, 15 cm and 10 cm, respectively. For each concave mirror, he performs the experiment of image formation for three values of object distance of 30 cm, 10 cm and 20 cm.
Give reasons for the following:
i. For the three object distances, identify the mirror which will form an image equal in size to that of object. Find at least one value of object distance.
ii. Out of the three mirrors, identify the mirror which would be preferred to be used for shaving purpose.
iii. For the mirror B, draw ray diagram for image formation for any two given values of object distance.
