Photometry and Sources of Light

Science > Physics > Wave Theory of Light >Photometry and Sources of Light In this article, we shall study brief history of study of light, sources of light, andterminology of optics. History of Study of Light: Light is a form of that energy which simulates our vision. Around 400 B.C., it was proposed that particles […]

Introduction to Static Electricity

Science > Physics > Electrostatics > Introduction to Static Electricity Electricity is a very important form of energy which can be easily converted into other forms of energy. Electricity can be produced at one place and can be transmitted to long distances. Electricity is a branch of Physics which deals with charges, stationary and moving. […]

Change of Phase

Science > Physics > Themodynamics > Change of Phase In this article, we should study the concept of phase, change of phase anfd the triple point of water. Phase: The phase of a substance is defined as its form which is homogeneous, physically distinct and mechanically separable from other forms of the substance. The term […]

Introduction to Thermodynamics

Science > Physics > Themodynamics > Introduction In this article, we shall study the concept of thermodynamics and thermodynamic state. Thermodynamics is a branch of physics that deals with the inter-conversion between heat energy and any other form of energy. Thermodynamic State: The simplest example of a system to which thermodynamics can be applied is […]

Epithelium or Epithelial Tissue

Science > Biology > Zoology > Histology > Epithelium or Epithelial Tissue In this article, we shall study about the epithelium or epithelial tissue. Higher-level organisms have multicellular structure. The cells differ from one another in their shape, size. Cells arise from pre-existing cells by the process of cell division. In multicellular organisms, cells are […]

Criteria for Animal Classification

Science > Biology > Zoology > Criteria for Animal Classification In this article, we shall study the criteria for animal classification. Animals are classified as follows: On the Basis of Number of Germ Layers: Animals in which the cells are arranged in two embryonic layers, an external ectoderm, and an internal endoderm, are called diploblastic […]

Types of Endosperm and Fruit Formation

Science > Biology > Botany > Reproduction in Plants > Types of Endosperm and Fruit Formation In the last article, we have studied fertilization and the formation of the endosperm. In this article, we shall study types of the endosperm. Types of endosperm Nuclear Endosperm: The primary endosperm nucleus divides repeatedly to form a large […]

Fertilization

Science > Biology > Botany > Reproduction in Plants > Fertilization In last article, we have studied about pollination and its types. In this article, we shall study the process of fertilization. Out Breeding Devices: Most angiosperms produce bisexual flowers (hermaphrodite). But most of them avoid self-pollination naturally or we can say that in plants […]

Pollination and its Types

Science > Biology > Botany > Reproduction in Plants > Pollination and its Types In this article, we are going to study important step in sexual reproduction in plants i.e. pollination. We shall also study its types. Transfer of pollen grains (shed from the anther) to the stigma of a pistil is termed pollination. Depending […]
