A concave mirror is a spherical mirror in which the reflecting surface and the center of curvature fall on the same side of the mirror. Concave mirrors show different type of images, depending on the distance between the mirror and the object reflected. This type of mirrors are used quite frequently in day-to-day life. Examples … Read more
Chemical Adsorption also known as chemisorptions is a kind of adsorption which involves a chemical reaction between the surface and the adsorbate whereas Physical adsorption is a kind of adsorption which attaches the target substance on a chip as a result of hydrogen bonding, van der waals forces, electrostatic forces and hydrophobic interactions. Physical adsorption … Read more
Flames burn by combining their own carbon molecules with oxygen molecules in the air to form carbon dioxide; in this regard heat flames are classified as either luminous or non-luminous flames. The terms “luminous” and “non-luminous” refer to objects based on their ability to emit light. Luminous flames do not get enough oxygen to turn … Read more
Both Acrania and Craniata belong to the phylum Chordata. Acrania are primitive chordates that lack a cranium and belong to the phylum Chordata. Craniata are higher chordates that possess a cranium and belong to the phylum Chordata. Let’s talk in details about the two. What is Acrania? Acrania is refer to a group of primitive, jawless fish … Read more
What is Total internal reflection? Total internal reflection occurs when a propagating wave strikes a medium boundary at an angle larger than a particular critical angle with respect to the normal to the surface. If the refractive index is lower on the other side of the boundary and the incident angle is greater than the … Read more
What are Intrinsic Sensors? Intrinsic sensors are devices that derive their measurements directly from the property or phenomenon being measured without relying on external references. They are designed to measure physical, chemical, or biological properties inherent to the system they are monitoring. Types of Intrinsic sensors Extrinsic Sensors Extrinsic sensors are devices used to measure … Read more
Cat5 & Cat5e Cat5 cables, short for Category 5 cables, are a type of twisted pair cable commonly used in Ethernet networks. These cables consist of four twisted pairs of copper wire, enclosed in a sheath made of PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) or other materials. The twisting of the pairs helps to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) … Read more
Ruminant and non-ruminant animals represent two groups within the animal kingdom, that are classified by their digestive systems and feeding strategies or modes. What Are Ruminant Animals? Ruminant animals possess a complex, multi-chambered stomach that enables them to efficiently digest fibrous plant material. You can also say, they are animals or mammals that regurgitate the … Read more
Learn the primary differences between Mold and Yeast. The basis of comparison include: Definition reproduction, appearance and texture, examples, growth conditions, number of species, habitat, virulence, conversion of food substances, uses, cell structure, hyphae and health problems. What is Mold? Mold refers to a type of multicellular fungus that grows in the form of multicellular … Read more
Plant and animal species depends on another plant or animal species for its existence. For example cow eating shrub leaves or lions eating the gazelle or bees taking pollen from a flower. Both food chain and food web describes how energy and nutrients flow in an ecosystem. A food chain also shows how organisms are … Read more
