Vapour pressure
. In such a state, although the amount of liquid level in the vessel does not change, evaporation has not stopped and the system is not at rest. In fact, the number of molecules, which escape from the liquid to the gaseous phase (due to evaporation), becomes equal to the number of vapour ..
Root Pressure Theory
Stocking (1956) has defined root pressure as: a pressure developed in the tracheary elements of xylem as a result of metabolic activities of the root. The root pressure is said to be an active process which is confirmed by the following facts: Living cells are essentia..
An increase in pressure on a system where a liquid-vapour equilibrium exists
According to the Le Chatelier's principle, this will make the system move in a direction of lower volume. An increase in pressure on the system will result in the condensation of vapours to give liquid, since, liquids have lower volume as compared to vapours. The equi..
Effect of Temperature and Pressure on States of Matter
Effect of Temperature and Pressure on States of Matter - When we heat a solid, we add energy to the system increasing the vibration of the particles. Eventually these particles break free from their binding forces and melt. The normal melting point of a crystal is the temperatur..

The condition of the system when its macroscopic properties have definite measurable values, is the state of a system. If any of the macroscopic properties of the system changes such as its temperature, pressure etc., the state of the system is als..
Lymphatic System
Lymph - At the capillary end of the arteries, the walls are only one-cell thick. The pressure in the arterial capillaries is also quite high. These leads the plasma to leak into the interstitial space. The interstitial space is the space between the cells of the tissue. The fluid is plasm..

From the seminiferous tubules, the sperms are passed into a network of 10-12 ducts called the efferent ducts or the vasa efferentia . They are then passed into a highly coiled tubular part called the epididymis . Epididymis is an organ that extends from the top of the testis along its side to it..
Characteristics of Open System
1) The blood flows at a very low velocity and at low pressure due to the absence of smooth muscles. 2) There is direct exchange of materials between the cells and the blood because of the direct contact between them. 3) The respiratory pigment, when present, is dissolved in the plasma of ..
State of the System and State Functions
State of the system implies the conditions of its existence. In order to understand it, let H 2 O be considered as a chemical system. H 2 O can exist in three physical states; ice, water and steam depending upon the conditions of temperature and pressure. For e.g., at ..
Liquid - vapour system
Equilibrium between a liquid and its vapours can be represented by the equation...

Tutor Vista perceived the math apps well and I enjoyed getting to work with Tutor Vista - Savannah
Tutor is an excellent. I would say this tutor is an asset of Tutor Vista.. Excellent Job!!!!!!!
I need tutoring from tutorvista till th end of my schooling. Tutors are not only experts they are brilliant enough to make a student like me understand the concepts of differentiation and functions.
I really liked Tutor Vista, I am confident I will get an A+ in my math test now, My sincere thanks to all the tutors -George
