Introduction Different animals have different respiratory organs and they are different from that human. Insects, as well as worms, are the most important components in the environment. The respiration processes of cockroaches and earthworms are different from each other. Earthworms are able to respire through the help of their moist body. On the other hand, cockroaches can respire through spiracles which are present on the lateral surface of the main body. What is Respiration? Respiration is a process which is metabolic in nature and all organisms having life, go through this process. In this process, the first matter of ... Read More

Introduction In order to understand the plasmolysis in epidermal peels of rhoeo leaves, it can be stated that two experiments have been conducted by using the solution of NaCl salt. The study involves the epidermal peelings or layering where the cells of the plants are placed in a hypertonic and hypotonic solution of sugar or salt. What is Plasmolysis? The process through which the cells lose water when they are kept in a hypertonic solution which has a higher rate of concentration of solutes is determined as plasmolysis. Figure 1: Osmosis in a plant cell The phenomenon involves ... Read More

Introduction A French naturalist named Julien Joseph Vesque first discovered stomata. He developed a model of stoma formation. Later, two other scientists named Metcalfe and Chalk further developed it. In land plants, scientists have stated that the stomata appear in the middle of the Silurian period, however, the evolution process has very little proof in terms of the fossil records. They are the results of the plants’ algae evolution. What are Stomata? Figure 1: Stomata Stomata can be defined as the most crucial part of the plants that can help in the gaseous exchange between ... Read More

Introduction Imbibition is the most important part that takes place before germination. It helps the seeds or more specifically plant's absorption of the water. It is a process of diffusion, which only takes place when the solids or colloids absorb the water and increases in volume. It causes swelling in the seeds which causes the breaking of the seed coat. What is Imbibition? Imbibition can be defined as a phenomenon, where the solids or the colloids absorb the water and it occurs without any kind of solution formation. In the case of seeds, the imbibition is the first ... Read More

Introduction Natural resource consists of both resources that are renewable and non-renewable, that support and provide service to the ecosystem. These resources provide humans, animals and plants to sustain on the planet through the utilisation of its resources. Naturally occurring resources serve as the real wealth of the nation, as these are associated with the factors like improvement of fiscal revenue, reduction of the poverty level, and generation of income. Researchers say that if there would have been no natural resources, then animals and humans would suffocate and starve. Overview of Earth’s Resources It is understood that without ... Read More

Introduction Reptilia are the class of animals which is regarded as the first animal class that adopted life on the globe. The ancestors of the reptilia were amphibians and from there reptiles evolved millions of years ago. It’s vital to understand the life cycle of the reptilia to comprehend adequate knowledge. Reptiles are cold-blooded animals belonging to the phylum Chordata of Animal kingdom. Definition of Reptiles and Reptilia Reptiles are described as vertebrate animals of a category that contains snakes, crocodiles, lizards, turtles, and tortoises. Reptilia are the class of available reptile animals on Earth. As of now, scientists have ... Read More

Introduction Harvesting the water from rain is very relevant in the current situation. Initially, in rural areas, harvesting rainwater was very common and it is mostly used for agricultural purposes. In the current situation, different advanced technology and innovative tools are used to harvest the water rain. It is also used in the process of horticulture. In the current situation, rainwater is used for different housekeeping activities like washing clothes as well as cleaning purposes. What is Rainwater Harvesting? Harvesting water from rain generally is the system of rainwater collection where the collected rainwater is used for different ... Read More

Introduction Red algae can be witnessed in abundance in seaside atmospheres. However, they can also be witnessed in freshwater. It can be found both in the freshwater and marine which is one of the unique characteristics of red algae. Moreover, the visible growth pattern of the red algae is a diffuse pattern which includes apical growth and complex oogamy. Figure 1: Red Algae Red Algae Morphology The morphology of the red algae varies in different forms due to the unicellular complexity found in the parenchymatous and non-parenchymatous thallus. Cellulose builds up the strength of the inside walls. In the ... Read More

Introduction Rain is water droplets that are formed due to condensation from the water vapour present in the atmosphere that falls down on earth due to the impact of gravity. Rain is the primary part and outcome of the water cycle. The course of rain is associated with the precipitation of the water drops on earth. This phenomenon begins with the stages of the water cycle that in turn lead to the rainfall on earth and the cycle continues further on. Rainfall occurs when the clouds up in the sky become too heavy to float in the sky and then ... Read More

Introduction Production of goods requires resources. The recycling process of resources directly or indirectly contributes to the resource demand for producing new goods. Production of goods can be beneficial by using fewer resources while they are recycled in proper ways. Paper is one of the most used things in today’s world thus paper recycling is necessary. Used paper can be reused in different forms and by recycling, a constant supply of paper is possible. What is Recycling of Paper? In the waste paper recycling process, used papers are mixed with chemicals or water and broken down. With some additional steps, ... Read More
