When all the hydrogen gets exhausted, fusion stops and as a result the internal pressure, which keeps the star from collapsing under its high gravitational force decreases and the core contracts under its own gravity. However, the hydrogen in the outer shell fuses to helium and releases energy. Bu..

Water Cycle or Hydrological Cycle - Water is an indispensable commodity of life. Water determines the distribution, structure and function of organisms in the ecosystem. Water occurs in three phases - solid, liquid (ice/snow) and gaseous (water vapour). In liquid phase..

1) They produce food for all organisms 2) They provide beneficial substances like drugs, tannins, fibres, rubber, vegetable oils, fuel, condiments. 3) Some plants contain alkaloids which check growth of cancer cells. Example: Rosy periwinkle. 4) Plants release O 2 , cool enviro..

Earth is the source of matter for all living organisms, as they require several (about 40) elements for their growth and life processe..

The nitrogen cycle is complex as it depends on the activities of various bacteria. Nitrate in the soil is built up by plants into protein which is then passed on to animals, which eat the plants. The nitrogen from the protein is returned to the environment as ammonia (..

Oxygen is another essential element for living organisms. It is present in large quantities (20.95% v/v) in the atmosphere and is also seen in bound state in water and as oxides and carbonates in rocks. Dissolved oxygen in water is the source of oxygen for aquatic organisms. Oxygen in the Ozone lay..

Biogeochemical Cycles - Earth is the source of matter for all living organisms, as they require several (about 40) elements for their growth and life processes. Some elements and their compounds have an important role in the living protoplasm and are required in large amounts. T..

It is the movement of water between aquatic systems, air and land water vapour condenses to form clouds, and eventually rainfall. Plants play an important role in this cycle by the process of transpiration. The upper limit (maximum) of water availability of a soil is called f..
