41) Considering the impact of climate change on global ecosystems, which of the 
following statements accurately reflects the challenges faced by species in adapting to 
changing environmental conditions, particularly in relation to habitat loss and 
fragmentation? 
A) Climate change has no impact on ecosystems and species adaptation. 
B) Climate change poses significant challenges for species adaptation due to habitat loss 
and fragmentation, leading to increased extinction risks and reduced genetic diversity. 
C) Species can easily adapt to climate change without any intervention. 
D) The effects of climate change on ecosystems are temporary and will resolve over time. 
E) Biodiversity loss is unrelated to climate change and is solely caused by human 
activities. 
Correct option: B) 
Explanation: Climate change significantly challenges species adaptation due to habitat 
loss and fragmentation, increasing extinction risks and reducing genetic diversity, 
highlighting the need for conservation efforts. 
 
42) In the context of sustainable agriculture, which of the following practices is most 
effective in promoting soil health, reducing chemical inputs, and enhancing food security, 
particularly in the face of climate change and resource scarcity? 
A) Monocropping with synthetic fertilizers and pesticides to maximize yields. 
B) Implementing crop rotation, cover cropping, and organic farming practices to improve 
soil health and resilience. 
C) Relying solely on genetically modified organisms (GMOs) to increase crop productivity. 
D) Using chemical herbicides and pesticides without considering their long-term effects 
on soil and water quality. 
E) Focusing on large-scale industrial farming without integrating sustainable practices. 
Correct option: B) 
Explanation: Sustainable agricultural practices such as crop rotation and cover cropping 
enhance soil health, reduce reliance on chemical inputs, and contribute to long-term food 
security in the face of climate challenges. 
 
43) Which of the following best describes the significance of wetlands in environmental 
protection, particularly in relation to flood mitigation, water quality improvement, and 
habitat provision for diverse species? 
A) Wetlands are unproductive areas that should be drained for agricultural use. 
B) Wetlands play a critical role in flood mitigation, improving water quality by filtering 
pollutants, and providing essential habitats for a wide range of species. 
C) Wetlands have no significant ecological functions and are primarily recreational 
spaces. 
D) The destruction of wetlands has no impact on local biodiversity or water quality. 
E) Wetlands are only important for their aesthetic value and have no practical 
environmental benefits. 
Correct option: B) 
Explanation: Wetlands are vital ecosystems that provide numerous environmental 
benefits, including flood mitigation, water quality improvement, and habitat for diverse 
species, making them crucial for ecological health. 
 
44) In the context of international environmental agreements, which of the following 
treaties is most significant in addressing global climate change, particularly in terms of 
binding commitments and mechanisms for reducing greenhouse gas emissions among 
participating countries? 
A) The Kyoto Protocol, which established legally binding targets for developed countries to 
reduce emissions. 
B) The Montreal Protocol, which focused on phasing out ozone-depleting substances but 
did not address climate change directly. 
C) The Basel Convention, which regulates hazardous waste but is not focused on climate 
change. 
D) The Convention on Biological Diversity, which addresses biodiversity loss but not 
greenhouse gas emissions. 
E) The Ramsar Convention, which focuses on wetland conservation without direct 
implications for climate change. 
Correct option: A) 
Explanation: The Kyoto Protocol is significant for its legally binding commitments for 
developed countries to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, making it a key international 
agreement in the fight against climate change. 
 
45) In the context of air pollution and public health, which of the following statements 
accurately reflects the relationship between air quality, respiratory diseases, and 
socioeconomic factors, particularly in urban environments? 
A) Air pollution affects all populations equally, regardless of socioeconomic status. 
B) Poor air quality is linked to increased respiratory diseases, with marginalized 
communities often facing higher exposure and health risks due to socioeconomic factors 
and proximity to pollution sources. 
C) Air quality has no impact on public health and is primarily an environmental issue. 
D) The effects of air pollution are temporary and do not have long-term health 
implications. 
E) Air pollution is only a concern in industrialized nations and does not affect developing 
countries. 
Correct option: B) 
Explanation: Poor air quality is closely linked to respiratory diseases, with marginalized 
communities often experiencing higher exposure and health risks due to socioeconomic 
factors and proximity to pollution sources. 
 
46) Considering the role of education in promoting environmental sustainability, which of 
the following approaches is most effective in fostering environmental awareness and 
action among students and communities? 
A) Traditional education that focuses solely on theoretical knowledge without practical 
applications. 
B) Experiential learning opportunities that engage students in hands-on environmental 
projects and community initiatives to foster awareness and action. 
C) Education that prioritizes standardized testing over environmental topics. 
D) Environmental education that is limited to high school curricula and does not extend to 
younger students. 
E) Relying on digital resources alone without incorporating real-world experiences. 
Correct option: B) 
Explanation: Experiential learning that involves hands-on projects and community 
initiatives is highly effective in fostering environmental awareness and encouraging action 
among students and communities. 
 
47) In the context of ocean conservation, which of the following strategies is most 
effective in protecting marine biodiversity and ensuring sustainable fisheries, particularly 
in light of overfishing and habitat destruction? 
A) Expanding fishing quotas to meet increasing demand without regard for sustainability. 
B) Implementing marine protected areas (MPAs) and sustainable fishing practices to 
conserve marine biodiversity and restore fish populations. 
C) Relying solely on technological advancements to increase fish catch without 
addressing ecological impacts. 
D) Ignoring the role of local communities in managing marine resources. 
E) Promoting aquaculture without considering its environmental impacts. 
Correct option: B)
