Discovery - Daniel Rutherford, a Scottish Physician, discovered nitrogen in 1772. But it was Lavoisier, who proved that nitrogen is an element and that it was not a supporter of combustion and respiration. He called it 'azote' meaning 'no life'. The name 'Nitrogen' was given to ..

Discovery of the Cell - The history of the discovery of cells dates back to the 17 t h century and is closely associated with the history of the invention of microscopes. An Italian microscopist Marcello Malpighi studied the structure of some plants and proposed the idea that pl..

Summary - All living organisms are composed of one or more cells. A cell is the structural and functional unit of life. The metabolic reactions in a living organism - can occur only in a delicately balanced environment. Through their unique chemical composition, cells provide a specific enviro..

Biology invariably uses knowledge and techniques from other branches of science, to solve its complicated life processes. Most of the recent discoveries and inventions in biology have resulted from the joint endeavour between biology and physical sciences and even biology and so..

Air in motion is called wind. Wind velocity can be measured by an Anemometer. It is an important ecological factor of the atmosphere affecting variously the plant life on flat plains, along sea coasts and at high altitudes in mountain..

The eradication of a number of diseases and major contributions to improving human health, have been made by modern chemical discoveries. Some important contributions in this field are: Life saving drugs and prophylactics, i.e., disease preventing serum and vaccines Anaest..

Water - About 70-73% of earth is covered by water. Water is available in the form of oceans, seas, rivers, lakes, ponds, pools, polar ice caps and water vapour and this forms the hydrosphere. The main component of hydrosphere is water. Water exists in all the three forms i.e., solid (snow..

Astatine the last member of halogen family is a radioactive element with a very short life. All other halogens are abundant in nature in the combined state. The very high electronegativities of halogens make them very reactive and hence, they are not found in free state. In the combined s..
