General Science Questions

Stimulus diffusion is a type of expansion diffusion in which the idea is acceptable or adopted but not in its original form and expanded to culturally acceptable.

For example :

1. Mc. Donalds is also in India but not in beef. Indians culture will not accept beef and so it is with different forms like veg, non veg but the idea is same.

2. Yoga is an idea where in different regions use yoga for different reasons but the idea is same.

Photosynthesis is the process that takes place in leaves that converts light energy into chemical energy or sugars. It occurs in the presence of chlorophyll that is present in leaves as a green pigment, carbondi oxide and water with the help of sun light. So the energy for photosynthesis come from sun light.

The first thing to be affected by alcohol is Judgement followed by brain center and senses like smell, taste, vision, etc...

Presently, there are 226 flood forecasting stations consisting of 166 level forecasting stations for villages and towns and 60 inflow forecasting stations for reservoirs/dams/barrages in the country. Existing flood forecasting network covers 22 States / Union Territories and 19 major river basins / sub-basins in the country.

NADP - Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate is one of the carrier molecules that transfers high-energy electrons from chlorophyll to other molecules.

NADP+ is the molecule that accepts the electrons given by water. Its reduction by the protein FNR (Ferredoxin NADP+ reductase) gives NADPH,H+.

NADPH,H+ can be used in the Calvin Cycle to reduce 1,3-Biphosphoglycerate (1,3-BPG) into Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P), a monosaccharide. It becomes NADP+ again and the cycle keeps repeating as long as the chloroplast receives sufficient and appropriate light.

The carbon, oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen are the key elements in aminoacids as all aminoacids contain amine (NH2) and carboxyl (COOH) as functional groups and R group for every specific aminoacid.
