Respiration In Organisms – Heart Beats Faster During Exercise Or while Running Q. WHEN YOU RUN, YOUR BREATHING BECOMES FASTER AS YOU NEED MORE OXYGEN. BUT WHY DOES YOUR RATE OF HEARTBEAT ALSO INCREASE? When you run, your oxygen intake increases because you require a constant supply of it in…
Have you ever been so excited to drink the first bite of pizza, but your tongue burns because it’s so hot? What exactly is happening inside your mouth? Watch out this interesting video to get the answer! For more such videos : https://www.youtube.com/c/ExperiHub?sub_confirmation=1 For more Science related blogs and videos…
Chlorophyll is any of several related green pigments found in the mesosomes of cyanobacteria and in the chloroplasts of algae and plants. Chlorophyll allow plants to absorb energy from light. Chlorophylls absorb light most strongly in the blue portion of the electromagnetic spectrum as well as the red portion. Conversely,…
Microorganisms are living organism that is so tiny it can only be seen with the aid of a microscope. Consider that the largest human cells are about the diameter of a human hair. Bacteria cells are one-hundredth the size of a human cell and viruses are much, much smaller again. If you imagine that…
Fungi is any member of the group of eukaryotic organisms that includes microorganisms such as yeasts and molds, as well as the more familiar mushrooms. Yeasts are eukaryotic, single-celled microorganisms classified as members of the fungus kingdom. Yeast is a very useful microorganism and is used to cause fermentation. Yeast…
Osmosis is a vital process in biological systems, as biological membranes are semipermeable. In general, these membranes are impermeable to large and polar molecules, such as ions, proteins, and polysaccharides, while being permeable to non-polar or hydrophobic molecules like lipids as well as to small molecules like oxygen, carbon dioxide,…
A microorganism, or microbe, is an organism of microscopic size, which may exist in its single-celled form or as a colony of cells. The possible existence of unseen microbial life was suspected from ancient times, such as in Jain scriptures from sixth century BC India. Because microorganisms include most unicellular organisms from…
A microorganism is a living thing that is too small to be seen with the naked eye. Examples of microorganisms include bacteria, archaea, algae, protozoa, and microscopic animals such as the dust mite. Microorganisms are found virtually everywhere, except for environments that have been made artificially sterile by humans. Even…
The cell is the basic structural and functional unit of life. Every cell consists of a cytoplasm enclosed within a membrane, which contains many biomolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids. Cells can acquire specified function and carry out various tasks within the cell such as replication, DNA repair, protein…
Plants reproduction is the production of new offspring in plants, which can be accomplished by sexual or asexual reproduction. Sexual reproduction produces offspring by the fusion of gametes, resulting in offspring genetically different from either parent. Asexual reproduction produces new individuals without the fusion of gametes. The resulting clonal plants…
Heredity is a process in which organisms acquire characteristics from their parents. These characteristics are called traits. Every individual is unique because they have a unique set of traits. The traits which are transmitted by the parent to its offspring during the process of fertilization are inherited traits. This inheritance…
Sharks are a group of elasmobranch fish characterized by a cartilaginous skeleton, five to seven gill slits on the sides of the head, and pectoral fins that are not fused to the head. Modern sharks are classified within the clade Selachimorpha (or Selachii) and are the sister group to the…
Xylem is one of the two types of transport tissue in vascular plants, the other being phloem. The basic function of xylem is to transport water from roots to stems and leaves, but it also transports nutrients. The xylem, vessels and tracheids of the roots, stems and leaves are interconnected…
In earth science, erosion is the action of surface processes (such as water flow or wind) that removes soil, rock, or dissolved material from one location on the Earth’s crust, and then transports it to another location where it is deposited. Erosion is distinct from weathering which involves no movement.…
In botany, a stoma/stomata is a pore found in the epidermis of leaves, stems, and other organs, that controls the rate of gas exchange. The pore is bordered by a pair of specialized parenchyma cells known as guard cells that are responsible for regulating the size of the stomatal opening.…
Transpiration is the process of water movement through a plant and its evaporation from aerial parts, such as leaves, stems and flowers. Water is necessary for plants but only a small amount of water taken up by the roots is used for growth and metabolism. Mass flow of liquid water…
Germination is usually the growth of a plant contained within a seed; it results in the formation of the seedling. It is also the process of reactivation of metabolic machinery of the seed resulting in the emergence of radicle and plumule. The seed of a vascular plant is a small package produced in a fruit or cone after…
The Covid 19 pandemic has affected the whole world in one way or another, and 2020 without a doubt, has been a roller coaster ride! We have not only been forced to practice social distancing for months at end but, the pandemic has also affected all our routine decisions. The…
While the phenomenon of identical twins may sound easy to comprehend, it is extremely important to understand what we mean by the term “Identical Twins” before diving deep into its features and other characteristics. Identical twins, also known as monozygotic, are twins that have been developed from a single egg/sperm.…
” If not thousands, there are hundreds of poisonous plants in the world, some of which can turn out to be deadly. “ Looking around, we see plants almost every day. While they may look harmless, they can contain some of the most deadliest poison known to mankind. Some of…
Did you know ? : Snakeless nation of the world Snakes are the venomous devil abundant throughout the world. Albeit, it is which place in this blue planet where snakes ,The devil which even finds its mention in the Holy bible, do not reside? Land where such reptiles are…
The human body is like an engine. And just like every engine, it needs fuel, in the form of food. We get the energy needed to sustain ourselves through food. Hence, Food and Nutrition play a major role in our lives and let’s get to know them better. There are…
Why do we respire? Before we understand respiration, let’s do a few experiments. You might be aware of the fact, that candle stops burning when we light it and cover it with a glass jar. In other words, when we stop the flow of air. You can also think…
Water transportation through Xylem in plants.
What is DNA? DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. Nearly every cell in a person’s body has the same DNA. Most DNA is located in the cell nucleus (where it is called nuclear DNA), but a small amount of DNA can…
How Plants Communicate & Think – Nature Documentary HD You may not think of plants as particularly chatty or active organisms, but they’re not as passive as they might seem. Plants can’t run away, so they have to develop other strategies to stay alive, as James Cahill, an environmental plant…
Science experiment for kids are big in our home. My kids love them – and so do I. While teaching Kindergarten I made science experiments a priority. Kids are so naturally curious about the world around them and science experiments bring this learning fully to life. This is my ABSOLUTE…
Check out our channel FunScienceDemos: https://www.youtube.com/user/funscien… Jared explains why erosion occurs more slowly when soil is paired with leaf debris or plants.
