Student Feedback: These answers are written for activity-style Class 6 questions. Read the comparison first, then add a local plant or animal example wherever your teacher asks for observation.

Class 6 Science Chapter 2 Solutions Overview

Chapter 2 begins with a nature walk and shows that the living world has many forms. Plants differ in stems, leaves, flowers, roots and seeds. Animals differ in habitat, movement, food habits and body parts. The chapter uses these differences to introduce grouping.

In the exercise, most answers ask students to compare features. For example, wheat and kidney bean are compared through root type and leaf venation. Ducks and pigeons are compared through feet. Mountain goats and plains goats are compared through adaptations to different surroundings.

Monocot and Dicot Clues in Chapter 2

One important pattern in the chapter is the relation between seeds, roots and leaf venation. A dicot plant usually has two cotyledons, a taproot and reticulate venation. A monocot plant usually has one cotyledon, fibrous roots and parallel venation.

Monocot and dicot plant clues for Class 6 Science Chapter 2

  • Wheat is a monocot example, so its plant has fibrous roots and parallel venation.
  • Kidney bean is a dicot example, so its plant has a taproot and reticulate venation.
  • Radish is a taproot, so its leaves generally show reticulate venation.
  • Hibiscus is used in the chapter as a shrub and as a reticulate venation example.

Habitats and Adaptations in Diversity in the Living World

Chapter 2 also explains how habitat affects body features. A fish has fins for swimming. A duck has webbed feet to push water. Camels, goats, deodar trees and rhododendrons show features that help them survive in deserts, plains or mountains.

Habitats and adaptations classification for Class 6 Science Chapter 2

For reasoning questions, students should avoid one-word answers. A strong answer names the habitat, identifies the body feature and explains how that feature helps survival. For example, webbed feet help a duck swim because the joined toes push more water backward.
