Parthenogenesis Parthenogenesis, a reproductive strategy that involves development of a female (rarely a male) gamete (sex cell) without fertilization. It occurs commonly among lower plants and invertebrate animals (particularly rotifers, aphids, ants, wasps, and bees) and rarely among higher vertebrates. An egg produced parthenogenetically may be either haploid (i.e., with one set of dissimilar chromosomes) … Read more DMPQ: Define Parthenogenesis, Grafting and Layering.

Difference between Minerals and Ores                     Minerals                              Ores All the naturally occurring substances of metals which are present in the earth’s crust are known as Minerals. Ores are usually used to extract metals economically. A large amount of metals are present. All Minerals are not ores. All ores are minerals.

A fuel cell is a device which produces electric energy, through a chemical reaction. Fuel cells use positively charged ion(Hydrogen) and an oxidising agent (oxygen).There are many types of fuel cells, but they all consist of a cathode,an anode, and an electrolyte that allows positively charged( hydrogen) ions to move between the two sides of … Read more DMPQ: What is fuel cell? How Hydrogen fuel cell work? ( SCIENCE)

The survival of plants is dependent on a number of factors which include water, minerals, gases, and nutrients they receive. The movement of gas, water, and nutrients in plants are carried out in components. They take in carbon dioxide from the air through the stomata present in their leaves and they absorb compounds of nitrogen, … Read more DMPQ: Explain the transport of water in Plants

  A person can live a normal, healthy life with just one kidney. However, at least one kidney must function properly to maintain life.

Some long-exploited biofuels, such as wood, can be used directly as a raw material that is burned to produce heat. The heat, in turn, can be used to run generators in a power plant to produce electricity. A number of existing power facilities burn grass, wood, or other kinds of biomass. Liquid biofuels are of … Read more DMPQ: What are the different types of Biofuels?
