Ans1.
Robert hooke discovered cells in 1665 while examining a thin slice of cork through a self designed microscope. He saw that the cork resembled the structure of a honeycomb. The small boxes in the comb are called cells.

Ans2.
A cell is capable of independently carrying out all the necessary activities of life. So, they are called structural and functional unit of life.

Ans1.
Carbon dioxide moves by diffusion and water move by osmosis through cell membrane.

Ans2.
It is called selectively permeable membrane because it allows the entry and exit of some substances, not all.

Ans1.
The two organelles which have their own genetic material are -
1) Mitochondria
2) Plastids

Ans2.
The cell will not be able to revive and lysosomes will digest it.

Ans3.
When the cell gets damaged, lysosomes may burst and the enzymes digest their own cell. Therefore, lysosomes are known as suicide bags.

Ans4.
The proteins are synthesized in the ribosomes that are also known as protein factories.

Age problems (for practice) | class 10 mathematics | advguruji | Physics Advocate

Linear Equations Q1. Ten years ago, father was twelve times as old as his son and ten years hence, he will be twice as old as his son will be. Find their present ages. Ans. Present age of father = 34 years          Present age of son = 12 years Q2. Three years ago, Priya's mother was six times older than her. Four years from now, Priya's mother will be one year older than thrice her age. Find the present age of Priya and her mother. Ans.  Present age of Priya = 8 years       Present age of mother = 33 years Q3. Five years ago, Rakesh was five times younger than his mother. Ten years from now, his age will be half of his mother's age. Find the present age of Rakesh and his mother. Ans. Present age of Rakesh = 10 years      Present age of mother = 30 years Q4.           (equation in one variable) A  is elder to  B  by two years. A's father  F  is twice as old as  A .  ...

What if we can contact Aliens ? by Physics Advocate/advguruji

Before the beginning, first discuss about aliens. Aliens are those creatures which do not belong to our world. For more than 50 years we are searching for aliens and we have found nothing. Are they ignoring us? Now a question comes to our mind. Can we contact aliens? The answer is: most probably NO. But why? Because first we have to find that type of planets (or natural satellites) which can support life. This is not an easy task. Also, a planet which can support life is not enough. Why? Because life can exist in various forms. One form is unicellular organisms. For example, in our solar system it is believed that Titan (Saturn's moon) can support unicellular life. But the disadvantage is we cannot contact them by our communication methods. But yes, there is a high possibility in future that a rover mission can take some samples of the unicellular or may be small multicellular organisms and send the data to Earth. Now comes the interesting part. If a planet is supporti...

Energy of electron in nth orbit of Hydrogen atom | Numericals by Physics Advocate

Q1. How much energy is needed to relocate an electron from first excited state to fourth excited state in an Hydrogen atom? Also, find the type of light needed in this process. Q2. Find the wavelength of light released when an electron jumped from 4th excited state to ground state in an Hydrogen atom. Also, name the series. Q3. Find the wavenumber of light released when an electron jumped from 5th excited state in bracket series (in H - atom). www.advguruji.blogspot.com Q4. An electron absorbed 2.55 eV energy and jumped from first excited state to nth excited state. Find n . Q5. when an electron jumped from second excited state to some different state, UV ray was released. Name the state and find the frequency of the UV ray. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ANSWERS Ans1. 2.86 eV Ans2. 99 nm Ans3. 0.375 × 10⁶ m-¹ Ans4. n = 3 Ans5. 2.90 × 10¹⁵ Hz by    www.advguruji.blogspot.com
