\g a particular A permanent aggregation of individuals of the same species inhabitin, geographical area at a particular time is called Population. Quadrate Method A square area (standard size is one metre square) taken at random is called quadrat ‘vithin which the composition of organisms is observed and mentioned. The quadrate sampling technique is mostly used in plant ecology to study plant communities. Permanent quadrats can be established and examined at given intervals for assessing changes in species composition in an area over a time period. EXPERIMENT 5A | ee ee Aim To study population density of plants by quadrate method. Requirements Field, metre scale, string or wire, nails, paper, etc. Method 1, Select a field to study the population density of the plants. 2, Measure 1 metre 1 metre area with the help of the metre scale in the field to make a quadrat. 3, Fix four nails at the corners of the quadrat and tie a string to it. To make the counting easy, divide the quadrat further to make smaller squares. 5, Count and mention the number of plants of a particular species in a square and similarly mention the number of plants of another species if present. 6. Now, count and add the total number of a particular plant species of all the equares to get the total number of a particular plant species of the quadrat. 7, Repeat the same experiment for the other quadrats also. 8.

EXPERIMENT 6A Aim to study the seeds of pea plant to calculate the mendelian ratio. Requirements sample of pea pods, petri dish, lamp Method 1. Take out the pea seeds by opening the pea pods. 2. Make different sets of seeds based upon seed colour (Yellow/Green) and shape (Round/Wrinkled). 3. Count the seeds in each set and calculate the Mendelian ratio based upon the given observations. @ scanned with OKEN Scanner Observations 1.
