Modification of Stem

Science > Biology > Botany> Morphology of Plants > Modification of Stem In this article, we shall study the modification in stem in some plants for performing the functions other than its primary function. Primary functions of the stem are To support and orient the leaves in a manner that they are exposed to maximum sunlight […]

The Stem

Science > Biology > Botany> Morphology of Plants > The Stem and Buds The body of a typical flowering plant can be divided into the underground root system and aerial shoot system. The shoot system is heterogeneous. The shoot system (stem) is an aerial and erect part of the plant body that grows upwards. It is usually […]

Modification of Roots

Science > Biology > Botany> Morphology of Plants > Modification of Roots In this article, we shall study the modification of roots for the purpose of food storage, respiration, support, etc. Roots in some plants change their shape and structure and become modified to perform functions other than absorption and conduction of water and minerals. […]

Botany

The Root

Science > Biology > Botany > Morphology of Plants > The Root In this article, we shall study morphology of root, different regions of root, and different types of roots. Morphology: Morphology is a branch of biology dealing with the study of the form and structure of organisms and their specific structural features Importance of Morphology: […]

1.2.1.2 System of Units

Science > Physics > Introduction to Measurements > System of Units There are as many units as there are independent quantities. We consider length, mass, and time three quantities which are independent of each other. Hence they have three separate units for their measurements. Hence it is required to define systems of units. LIST OF […]

1.1.2 Scientific Methods

Science > Physics > Scientific Methods At the core, all sciences lie a problem-solving approach called the scientific method. It is a set of procedures that scientists follow in order to gain knowledge about the world. It is a process for experimentation that is used to explore observations and answer questions. It doesn’t mean that every scientist […]
