Nature Quiz

by Arup Kumar Dutta

About the Book: Nature Quiz In the wider sense of the term, nature can be said to encompassall phenomena not created by man and over which he has no control.This would make it a board canvas that takes in its sweep allbranches of natural science, including physics, chemistry, biology,zoology, astronomy, meteorology, geology, anthropology, geography,ecology, paleontology, and genetics. Such an connotation of natureis obviously too extensive for a Nature Quiz Book of this kind. Thebook, therefore, restricts the field of survey to the popular viewof natural history as the study of living things, or livingorganisms.
