In Greek, echinos means hedgehog, and derma means skin. Thus, echinodermates are spiny
skinned organisms.

OR
(a) Because it would be difficult for people speaking or writing in different languages to know when they are talking about the same organism. This problem was resolved by agreeing upon a ’scientific’ name for organisms which is unique and can be used to identify an organism anywhere in the world. The system of scientific naming or nomenclature was introduced by Carious Linnaeus in the eighteenth century.

Question 10:
What is velocity-time graph ? State how it can be used to find:
(i) the acceleration of a body,
(ii) the displacement of the body,
(iii) the distance travelled in a given time.
Answer:
In the velocity-time graph, time is taken on the x-axis velocity is taken along the y – axis.
(i) Since acceleration = change in velocity/time, therefore, the slope of the velocity¬time graph gives the acceleration. If the slope is positive, it is accelerated motion and if the slope is negative, the motion is retarded.
(ii) Since velocity x time = displacement. The area enclosed above the time axis represents positive displacement and the area enclosed below the time axis represents negative displacement. The total displacement is obtained by adding them numerically with proper sign.
(iii) The total distance travelled by the body is their arithmetic sum (without sign).
