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.

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.

Wind Energy | wind generators | advantages and disadvantages of Wind Energy by - advguruji

Moving air is called wind. Wind has energy. The energy possessed by wind is due to its high speed. So we can say the wind possesses kinetic energy . It is the kinetic energy of wind which is utilized for doing work. Solar energy or sun's energy is responsible for the blowing of wind, due to the uneven heating of earth by the sun in different regions. Now let's discuss about what is a wind mill. Wind mill The energy of wind is harnessed by using a windmill. A windmill consists of big sized table fan like blades which are fixed over the top of a tall pole in such a way that they are free to rotate when the fast moving wind strikes on the blades of the windmill. It makes the blades rotate continuously. The rotatory motion of the windmill is then used to do Mechanical work through a shaft connected to the rotating blades. The traditional use of wind energy has now been modified by the improvement in technology to generate electricity through wind powered generators. Wind Generator
