Explanation:
- A larval is a developmental stage in many animals that occurs after birth and before the animal reaches adulthood.
- A larva differs in living habits from the adults.
- In some species the larva is aquatic and the adult stays on land for example tadpole, which is the larval stage of a frog. These tadpoles hatch from the eggs laid by the frog in ponds, lakes and streams.
- While in some species the larva is free living and the adult is non mobile. For example Nymph is a free living larva of Mayfly (family Ephemeridae)
- A caterpillar is the larval stage of a butterfly which comes under the category of terrestrial larva.
- Wriggler is the larval stage of a mosquito, which is free living and aquatic. These develop in water bodies like ponds, swamps, marshes and rainwater barrels.

- Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.
Assertion A : The potential (V) at any axial point, at 2 m distance(r) from the centre of the dipole of dipole moment vector \(\vec{P}\) of magnitude, 4 × 10-6 C m, is ± 9 × 103 V.
(Take \(\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}=9\times10^9\) SI units)
Reason R : \(V=±\frac{2P}{4\pi \epsilon_0r^2}\), where r is the distance of any axial point, situated at 2 m from the centre of the dipole.

Animal Kingdom
Animals are eukaryotic, multicellular species that belong to the Kingdom Animalia. Every animal has a distinct characteristic. They get energy either by feeding on plants or on other animals. There are millions of species that have been recognized, few shares similar characteristics while others vary drastically.
Kingdom Animalia comprises all animals. In the midst of the five kingdoms, the largest kingdom is the animal kingdom. Animals are multicellular eukaryotes. Though, like plants, they do not possess chlorophyll or a cell wall. Therefore, members of the animal kingdom indicate a heterotrophic mode of nutrition. Kingdom Animalia is further classified into ten different subphyla based on their body designs or differentiations.
The different phyla of the Kingdom Animalia are as follows:
- Porifera
- Coelenterata (Cnidaria)
- Platyhelminthes
- Nematoda
- Annelida
- Arthropoda
- Mollusca
- Echinodermata
- Hemichordata
- Chordata
