Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Voltage

Explanation:

Electrical Pressure is also called as Voltage. Voltage is measured in Volts.

 

Volt : A unit of electrical pressure or Voltage is called Volt.

 

One volt is the amount of pressure required to cause one ampere of current to flow against one ohm of resistance.

 

Voltage is also referred to as Electromotive Force or Electrical Potential or Electrical Pressure.

Q:

What organelle allows some protists to detect light?

Answer

An organelle called Eyespot allows some protists to detect light. It allows the cells to sense light direction and intensity and respond to it by swimming either towards the light (positive phototaxis) or away from the light (negative phototaxis).


 


Eyespot is a photoreceptive organelle found in the flagellate or (motile) cells of green algae and other unicellular photosynthetic organisms such as euglenids.


 


Eyespot-mediated light perception helps the cells in finding an environment with optimal light conditions for photosynthesis. Eyespots are the simplest and most common "eyes" found in nature, composed of photoreceptors and areas of bright orange-red pigment granules.

Q:

Is Air a Mixture?

A) TRUE B) FALSE
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) TRUE

Explanation:

True, Air is a Mixture.


Air is considered as mixture for the following reasons ;


1. Air can be separated into its components like N2, O2 , Argon and CO2 by the process of fractional distillation of liquid air.


2. Air shows the properties of all the gases present in the atmosphere.
For example : Oxygen is good Supporter of combustion. Hence air also is good supporter of combustion.


3. Air does not have a fixed formula.


4. Air has a variable composition because air at different places contains different amount of gases.


5. Heat or Light energy is neither absorbed nor released when air is prepared physical by mixing required amount of gases .


6. Mixture does have fixed boiling Point. It holds good in case of liquid air.

Q:

For accurate scientific work, temperatures are often measured by

A) mercury thermometers B) alcohol thermometers
C) platinum resistance thermometers D) thermoelectric thermometers
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) platinum resistance thermometers

Explanation:

The resistance of metallic conductors e.g, platinum, increases with rise of  temperature . The increase in temperature results in a decrease of current which can be recorded in a galvanometer if the conductor is included in an electrical circuit. Thus the temperature can be known; platinum resistance thermometer is used generally for accurate scientific work. When two dissimilar metals are joined at the ends, and these ends are subjected to a difference of temperature, a current flows through the metals. Greater the difference of temperature , greater the current. So the curent strength can form the basis for measuring the difference in temperature. And when one of these temperatures is known, we can calculate the other.
