About half of the paper consists of questions from Biology, as the NEET exam essentially focuses on capacitating students to go for seats in medical courses. One of the most significant and crucial sections in the NEET exam is of Biology. It comprises of theories, descriptions, discoveries, diagrams, definitions, explanations of differences, and relations. The majority of the topics covered in the NEET syllabus are from the NCERT syllabus of Class 11 & 12 and other related sources become part of the rest of the syllabus.

E.coli resides in the large intestine of human. Therefore, if these are present in water supply, it can be guessed that water supply has been contaminated by sewage.
Catalytic converters are filled into automobiles for reducing emission of poisonous gases like and CO. They have expensive metals like platinum-palladium and rhodium as catalyst. As the exhaust emission passes through catalytic converter, nitric oxide splits into nitrogen and oxygen; carbon monoxide is oxidised to carbon dioxide and unburnt hydrocarbons get burnt completely into and . Motor vehicles filled with catalytic converter should use unleaded petrol as leaded petrol inactivates the catalyst
Effect of pollution is observed first on green vegetation.
Q4. Which of the following problem is not created by noise pollution?
Prolonged and continuous high intensity noise not only causes partial hearing loss but may cause a permanent loss of hearing. A sudden loud noise such as an explosion can damage the tympanic membrane. Noise also causes sleeplessness, increased heart beating, altered breathing pattern, thus considerably stressing humans. Silicosis and asbestosis are the common occupational lung disease. These diseases are caused due to chronic exposure of silica and asbestos death
Nuclear waste should be pre-treated and stored in shielded containers and then buried about 500 m deep with in rocks
Primary pollutants are the pollutants which enter the air directly from the source, e.g., etc. Secondary pollutants develop from the interaction of primary pollutants and atmosphere constituents, e.g., oxides of nitrogen react with atmospheric moisture (water vapour) and from HNO3 which results in acid rain.
Organic farming is a form of agriculture that relies on techniques such as crop rotation, green manure, compost, resistant varieties and biologicals pest control
Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) is the amount of oxygen used for biochemical oxidation by microorganisms in a unit volume of water. Polluted water has high BOD. Thus when sewage gets mixed with river water, BOD will increase.
Bhopal gas tragedy occurred (3 Dec, 1984) when MIC (Methyl Isocyanate) reacted with water in tank, an exothermic chemical reaction started and producing a lot of heat. As a result, the safety valve of tank burst because of increasing in pressure. It gave rise to a heavy gas leak which rapidly rank to the ground.
CO2 is opaque to infra-red rays, which allow entry of radiations in atmosphere but prevents return of heat to space from earth.
