Q1Who is considered the father of ecology in India?
Explanation
Ramdeo Misra is widely referred to as the father of ecology in India because of his pioneering work in plant ecology and the development of ecological studies in the country. C. V. Raman was a Nobel-winning physicist, known for the Raman effect, not Indian ecology. Panchanan Maheshwari made major contributions to botany, especially embryology of angiosperms, but he is not given this title. Lalji Singh is remembered for work in genetics and DNA fingerprinting, so he does not fit the ecology-specific designation.
