Class 7 AI: AI in Industries – Questions and Answers

The Class 7 AI in Industries chapter shows how AI is used in agriculture, healthcare, banking, retail, manufacturing and transport across India, and what people still need to decide. Students break each use into input data, what the AI predicts, and who acts on it.

[ WORKED EXAMPLE ]

A farmer photographs crop leaves and an app says which disease they may have. What input does the AI use?

Answer: Photos of leaves.

  1. The farmer uploads leaf photos.
  2. The app uses computer vision to compare them with patterns from labelled diseased and healthy leaves.
  3. So the input is photos of leaves.

What this chapter is about

Students study real uses of AI: crop-disease detection from photos, X-ray screening, fraud alerts, product recommendations, factory quality checks and traffic prediction.

For each one they decompose the system: what data goes in, what the AI predicts, and which person makes the final decision.

They also consider benefits and risks: speed and scale versus errors, privacy and jobs.

Q1A farmer photographs crop leaves and an app says which disease they may have. What input does the AI use?
  • Photos of leaves
  • The farmer’s phone number
  • The weather forecast only
  • Nothing

Answer: A. Photos of leaves

Hint: What does the farmer give the app?

  1. The farmer uploads leaf photos.
  2. The app uses computer vision to compare them with patterns from labelled diseased and healthy leaves.
  3. So the input is photos of leaves.

Q2An AI tool highlights possible problems on chest X-rays. Who should make the final diagnosis?
  • A qualified doctor
  • The AI alone
  • The patient’s neighbour
  • Nobody

Answer: A. A qualified doctor

Hint: High-stakes decisions need a responsible human.

  1. The AI can help by flagging areas to look at.
  2. It can still be wrong, and medical decisions affect lives.
  3. A doctor reviews the result and makes the diagnosis.

Q3A bank’s AI sends an alert when a card is suddenly used in another country at 3 a.m. What is this called?
  • Fraud detection
  • Weather prediction
  • Translation
  • Face filters

Answer: A. Fraud detection

Hint: The AI spots something unusual compared with normal behaviour.

  1. The AI learns each customer’s usual spending pattern.
  2. A payment far from that pattern is flagged.
  3. This is fraud detection.

Q4An online shop shows “Customers who bought this also bought…”. What is the AI doing?
  • Recommending products from patterns in shopping data
  • Reading your mind
  • Printing receipts
  • Checking spelling

Answer: A. Recommending products from patterns in shopping data

Hint: Where does the suggestion come from?

  1. The shop records what many customers buy together.
  2. The AI finds products that are often bought together.
  3. It uses that pattern to recommend items.

Q5Why do factories use AI cameras to check products on a fast assembly line?
  • They can inspect thousands of items quickly and consistently
  • They never make any mistakes
  • They make products cheaper to design
  • They replace the need for electricity

Answer: A. They can inspect thousands of items quickly and consistently

Hint: Think about speed and tiredness.

  1. A camera can check every item without getting tired.
  2. It applies the same standard every time.
  3. It can still make errors, so results are monitored by people.

Q6How can a maps app predict a traffic jam on your route?
  • By using location and speed data from many phones on the road
  • By guessing randomly
  • By asking every driver
  • By using only a paper map

Answer: A. By using location and speed data from many phones on the road

Hint: Where could real-time information about road speed come from?

  1. Many phones share anonymous location and speed data.
  2. Slow-moving phones on a road suggest heavy traffic.
  3. The app combines this with past patterns to predict jams.
