Mitochondria are known as 'Power House' of the cell because they produce energy in the form of ATP.

Kepler's laws of planetary motion are three scientific laws describing the motion of planets around the Sun.

• Kepler’s three laws of planetary motion can be stated as follows:

(1) All planets move about the Sun in elliptical orbits, having the Sun as one of the foci.

(2) A radius vector joining any planet to the Sun sweeps out equal areas in equal lengths of time.

(3) The squares of the sidereal periods (of revolution) of the planets are directly proportional to the cubes of their mean distances from the Sun.

Eugenics is the study of altering human beings by changing their genetic components.

It is the study of the agencies under social control that may improve or impair the racial qualities of future generations either physically or mentally.

Decomposers are organisms that break down dead or decaying organisms, and in doing so, they carry out the natural process of decomposition.

The statement "Decomposers are those organisms that recycle matter in the ecosystem" describes decomposers.

A major Rabi Crop of India is wheat and barley in second place.

Osmosis is the process in which water molecules move from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower potential down a water potential gradient across a partially permeable membrane. It doen't requires any additional energy to do this work. 

So, Osmosis is a Passive.

Active and passive transport processes are two ways molecules and other materials move in and out of cells and cross intracellular membranes.

1. Active transport is the movement of molecules or ions against a concentration gradient (from an area of lower to higher concentration), which does not ordinarily occur, so enzymes and energy are required.

2. Passive transport is the movement of molecules or ions from an area of higher to lower concentration. Passive transport occurs because of the entropy of the system, so additional energy isn't required for it to occur.

3. Active transport requires energy to proceed, while passive transport does not require the input of extra energy to occur.

Three Logic Levels are used and they are High, Low, HIgh impedance state. The high and low are normal logic levels & high impedance state is electrical open circuit conditions. Tri-state logic has a third line called enable line.
