Every cell, whether it is prokaryotic or eukaryotic, is enclosed in a thin covering called cell membrane . It is also called as plasma membrane or plasma lemma . The cell membrane can only be seen through the electron microscope since its thickness is well below the resolving power of human eye. fi..

The right and the left auricles are separated by a fibrous partition called interauricular septum. Both the auricles have very thin walls because they have to push the blood only into the ventricles. The inner surface of the auricles is very smooth except for a network of low ridges calle..

The nephron or uriniferous tubule is the functional unit of the kidney. A nephron consists of a twisted tubule closed at one end, open at the other with a network of associated blood vessels. Each kidney of man is formed of about one million nephrons. Each nephron has a length of about 3 ..

Empirical formula is defined as the simplest formula of the substance, which gives the relative number of atoms of each element present in the molecule of that substance. Substances which have no discrete molecules such as ionic and network covalent compounds are described by this empiri..

In diamond, the carbon atoms are arranged tetrahedrally (sp 3 hybridisation of C): each C atom is linked to its neighbors by four single covalent bonds. This leads to a three-dimensional network of covalent bonds...

Silicate is the general term given to solids with silicon-oxygen bonds. A large percentage of the earth's crust consists of silicate minerals. Some of the important silicate minerals are quartz, asbestos (calcium magnesium silicate, CaMgSi 2 O 6 ), feldspar (potassium aluminium silicate, KAlSi 3 O ..

A coaxial cable consists of an inner conductor and an outer conductor, separated by a dielectric insulating material. The inner conductor is made of a copper wire encased inside the dielectric material. As for the outer conductor, it is made of copper, tinned copper, or copper-coated steel. Typica..

Consider the following two circuits. Neither can be solved by series-parallel combination..

Introduction - Every cell, whether it is prokaryotic or eukaryotic, is enclosed in a thin covering called cell membrane . It is also called as plasma membrane or plasma lemma . The cell membrane can only be seen through the electron microscope since its thickness is well below the resolving power o..

Summary - The biotic and abiotic components form an interacting system called 'ecosystem'. Producers, consumers and decomposers are the various trophic levels, which are linked by their food relationship forming a 'food chain'. Several food chains are interrelated and interconnected to form a ..
