Concept of Biodiversity : Definition of Biodiversity ; Genetic diversity; Species diversity and Ecosystem diversity. Five kingdom classification (only distinct characters).Salient features of major animal phyla with common examples, classification of Chordates (up to Sub Class) with distinctive characters only.
Parabola :Standard equation. Reduction of the form x = ay²+by+c or y = ax²+bx+c to the standard form y² = 4ax or x² = 4ay respectively. Elementary properties and parametric equation of a parabola.
Ellipse and Hyperbola : Reduction to standard form of general equation of second degree when xy term is absent. Conjugate hyperbola. Simple properties. Parametric equations. Location of a point with respect to a conic.
Straight line : Slope of a line. Equation of lines in different forms, angle between two lines. Condition of perpendicularity and parallelism of two lines. Distance of a point from a line. Distance between two parallel lines.
