Did you know that CEO of online shopping site Amazon Jeff Bezos makes more money per day than an average US household makes per year (millions of dollars).

Science behind the effects of video games on the human brain is a complicated subject. There are positive as well as negative effects.

Did you know that CEO of online shopping site Amazon Jeff Bezos makes more money per day than an average US household makes per year (millions of dollars). Do you know that stickers on fruits are used to classify natural fruits from genetically modified fruits that are grown with artificial and scientific methods. This is the episode 32 of the Top Enigmatic Facts (TEF) series.

1. Water can boil and freeze at the same time

Seriously, it's called the triple point and it occurs when the temperature and pressure is just right for the three phases (gas, liquid, and solid) of a substance to coexist in thermodynamic equilibrium.This video shows cyclohexane in a vacuum.

2. Lasers can get trapped in a waterfall?

agriraghv

Oh my gosh, yes. Not only is this an incredible example of total internal reflection it also shows how Fibre work to guide the flow of light.

3. We've got spacecraft hurtling towards the edge of our Solar System really, really fast

Agriraghv

We all know rockets are fast, and space is big. But sometimes when we're talking about how long it takes for us to get to distant parts of the Solar System(eight months to get to Mars are you kidding me?) it can feel like our spacecraft are just crawling along out there.

This gifshows just how wrong that idea is by comparing the speed of the New Horizons probe, which flew past Pluto last year, to a 747 and SR-71 Blackbird.

4. An egg looks like a crazy jellyfish underwater

Agriraghv

A cracked egg on land might make a big mess, but 18 metres (60 feet) below the surface of the ocean, the pressure on the egg is 2.8 times atmospheric pressure, and it holds it all together like an indivisible egg shell.

5. You can prove Pythagoras' theorem with fluid

Agriraghv

Not buying what your maths teacher is selling when they tell you a2 + b2 = c2? You can actually prove it with liquid.

COMMUNICATION Communication · INTRODUCTION By- Agriraghv The word communication has been derived from Latin ward “ communis ” which means common. Thus communication means sharing of ideas is common. It can be defined as exchange of facts, ideas, opinions or emotions between two or more persons to create a common ground of understanding. · Definition - Communication is the process of passing information & message from one person to another.

Type of Communication Ø Formal Communication Ø Downward Communication Ø Upward Commun...

classification of G.C. Ainsworth (1973)

Introduction to Fungi The fungi (singular, fungus ) include several thousand species of eukaryotic, spore bearing organisms that obtain simple organic compounds by absorption. The organisms have no chlorophyll and reproduce by both sexual and asexual means. The fungi are usually filamentous, and their cell walls have chitin. The study of fungi is called mycology , and fungal diseases are called mycoses. Two major groups of organisms make up the fungi. The filamentous fungi are called molds, while the unicellular fungi are called yeasts. The fungi are classified in the kingdom Fungi in the Whittaker five-kingdom system of classification. Agriraghv KEY CONCEPTS 1. Kingdom Fungi (the true fungi) is a monophyletic group of eukaryotic heterotrophs that reproduce with spores and have chitinous cell walls. The most familiar fungi are kitchen molds and mushrooms. The kingdom may include 1.5 million species, of which about 80,0...

Chromosome - Lecture

Chromosome Structure What is a chromosome? ''A chromosome is a deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecule with part or all of the genetic material (genome) of an organism. Most eukaryotic chromosomes include packaging proteins which, aided by chaperone proteins, bind to and condense the DNA molecule to prevent it from becoming an unmanageable tangle'' Genes are organized into discrete cellular structures called chromosomes that coordinate DNA replication and distribution of replicated genetic copies between two daughter cells. As vehicles of genetic transmission, chromosomes play a central role in Darwinian evolution. Chromosome Size Free-living bacteria need genetic information to synthesize proteins for executing vital functions. Most bacteria have a single chromosome with DNA that is about 2Mbp (mega base pairs) long (1Mbp 5 1 000 000 base pairs), but the DNA content ofdifferent species varies from 0.58 to greater than 9 Mbp ofDNA, and s...
