Endorphins are called pain controlling chemicals in the body.

When an atom loses an electron it becomes a positive ion by acquiring negatively charged. When it loses electron, the atom's radius also decreased.

The total number of instructions a computer executes per second is called as its processors speed. 

Maximum the processor's speed minimum the time for execution.

A test to determine processor speed is a benchmark.

The capacity of a water heater is measured in Gallons or Liters. In the USA, it is measured in Gallons and in India, we measure it in Liters.

Hence, if the capacity of the water heater is 15 gallons or 15 liters, then it says that it can hold 15 gallons or 15 liters of water.

Phage typing is based on the fact that bacterial viruses attack specific cells. Phage typing is a method used for detecting single strains of bacteria. It is used to trace the source of outbreaks of infections. 

Indira Gandhi became the first woman to receive the Bharat Ratna award in 1971.

Pine Top Smith (1899-1929) Considered to be the originator of the Boogie -Woogie style of piano playing.

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.
