The blood of some invertebrate animals like the earthworm is red due to haemoglobin pigment, but the pigment is dissolved in the plasma. In vertebrates the same pigment is found in the red corpuscles and not in the plasma.

Daemon is a program that runs in the background without user’s interaction. A daemon runs in a multitasking operating system like UNIX. A daemon is initiated and controlled by special programs known as ‘processes’.

Excessive use of nitrate including manure may be responsible forthe presence of toxic substance in groundwater. Phosphate can also enter the groundwater via excessive use of fertilizers. High application rates of nitrogen containing fertilizers combined with the high-water solubility of nitrate, leads to increased runoff into surface water as well as leaching into groundwater, thereby causing groundwater pollution.

Only a fraction of the nitrogen-based fertilizers, is converted to produce and other plant matter. Nitrate pollution in groundwater comes from pit latrines, it can cause blue baby syndrome.

coulomb is unit of Electric Charge,

watt per meter per degree celcius is unit of Thermal Conductivity,

joule per kilogram per Kelvin is unit of Specific Heat capacity.

Cellular repiration takes place in the mitochodria.

There are 3 phases of cellular respiration. They are:

1. Glycolysis (Fermentation),

2. Krebs Cycle, and

3. Electron Transport.

Glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm. The Krebs cycle and electron transport takes place in the mitochondria.

Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms activities.

Photosynthesis can be represented using a chemical equation.

The overall balanced equation is

              $$\begin{gathered} 6CO2 + 6H2O →Sunlight C6H12O6 + 6O2 \\ Source of Carbon & Oxygen + \\ Source of Electrons & Hydrogen + \\ Energy that drives Photosynthesis ----> \\ Sugar + Gas produced by splitting water. \end{gathered}$$

Where 

CO2 = carbon dioxide 

H2O = water

C6H12O6 = glucose 

O2 = oxygen.
