Heat from the sun travels in the form of rays and are called as heat rays. This heat is called as radiation.

Original jurisdiction means that the court has the right to hear the case firsthand while appellate jurisdiction means that the court will hear an appeal that came from a court of original jurisdiction.

In terms of jurisdiction, the Supreme Court has Original jurisdiction and appellate jurisdiction.

Cell membranes are made up of phospholipids which prevents them from dissolving in water.

Potentially hazardous foods are foods that might contain food poisoning bacteria and are capable of supporting growth of these bacteria or formation of toxins to levels that are unsafe for consumers, if the foods are not stored at correct temperatures. Toxins are poisonous chemicals produced by some types of bacteria.

The food can be left at room temperature until it reaches 60 deg C because food-poisoning bacteria will not multiply at 60 deg C or above. However, do not leave food cooling at room temperature unless you are sure that the temperature of the food is still at least above 60 C.

Frankenstein is an English Novel by Mary Shelley. In Frankenstein, Victor is a character who changes from an optimistic, eager young man to one who is anxious and Remorseful.

The light reactions of photosynthesis supply the calvin cycle with ATP and NADPH.

Polarity :: 

The polarity of a molecule defines its other physical properties such as melting point, boiling point, surface tension, vapor pressure etc... Simply, polarity occurs when the electron distribution in a molecule is asymmetric. This results in a net dipole moment in the molecule. One end of the molecule is charged negative while the other gets a positive charge.

The polarization of a molecule greatly depends on the shape of the molecule. A diatomic molecule like HF mentioned above has no issue of shape. The net dipole moment is only due to the uneven distribution of electrons between the two atoms. However, when there are more than two atoms involved in making a bond, there are many complexities.

The water molecule is of bent shape. Therefore, when the two pair of electrons shared by oxygen with two hydrogen atoms is pulled towards oxygen, the net dipole moment results in the direction of the oxygen atom. There is no other force to cancel out the resultant dipole moment. Hence, the water molecule is highly polar.

Ammonia molecule is of a pyramid shape and the electronegative N atom pulls the electrons towards itself. The three N-H bonds are not in the same plane; hence the dipole moments created do not get canceled out. This makes ammonia a polar molecule.

However, the dipole moments sometimes get canceled due to the shape of the molecules, making the molecule non-polar. Carbon dioxide is such a molecule.
