GIVE SCIENTIFIC REASONS FOR THE FOLLOWING 1] Transparent glass plate is used in solar cookers. Reason : It prevents heat escaping from the cooker/It traps the heat inside the solar cooker box. 2] Lead Glass is used in the windows of nuclear installations. Reason : It can absorb harmful radiations 3] U-235 is used as Nuclear fuel. Reason : U-235 is an unstable nucleus 4] Heavy water is used as coolant in nuclear reactors Reason : It eliminates heat from the nuclear reactor 5] Nuclear power plants should be established away from human habitation Reason : They prevent health risks from the emission of harmful radiations. 6] In solar water heaters, coiled copper tubes are used Reason : It increases the surface area of absorption for solar energy 7] The inside of solar cooker is painted black. Reason ; It increases heat absorption. 8] We should encourage the use of Fluorescent tubes in place of incandescent bulbs. Reason : Fluorescent tubes use less energy and give our more light so that energy crisis can be minimised/overcome. 9] House must be constructed to get maximum light and air. Reason : To reduce energy conservation for lighting and air-conditioning. 10] It is better to use pressure cookers for cooking. Reason : To save energy 11] Sodium metal is stored in kerosene. Reason : To prevent its quick reaction with oxygen and sodium does not react with kerosene. 12] Gold is used to prepare jewellery. Reason : It has attractive shining 13] In purification of copper, the mass of cathode increases. Reason : The copper ions get deposited on cathode as pure cathode.
7
14] Iron is considered as ‘King of Metals’. Reason : It has great applications in industries. 15] Hydrochloric Acid is used in extraction of amorphous silicon. Reason : To remove unchanged silica 16] Ethyl Mercaptan is used in liquefied petroleum gas. Reason : To detect leakage of LPG. 17] Borosilicate Glass is used in laboratory Equipments. Reason : It can withstand temperature fluctuations 18] It is necessary to minimise the use of plastics. Reason : It is non-bio-degradable 19] Gypsum salt is used in the manufacture of cement Reason : It prevents rapid setting of cement 20] Glass should be cooled slowly. Reason : To gain the capacity to withstand strain and to remove brittleness 21] Splinter-proof glass is used in Motor vehicles. Reason : It can withstand strain, and does not form sharp edges when broken. 22] Lead Glass is used in the preparation of Lens and Prisms Reason : It is highly transparent and has high refractive index 23] Permutit process is also called base ion exchange method. Reason : Here base ions like Ca++ and Mg++ ions are exchanged with Na+ ions. 24] Use of detergents should be reduced. Reason : It is non-biodegradable, and remain in the ecosystem causing pollution. 25] Hard water is not suitable for use in industrial boilers. Reason : It causes scaling in the walls of boilers, resulting in corrosion of boilers that may lead to explosion of boilers.

They are found both in water and on soil 3] Pteridophytes are also called trachaephytes. They have vascular tissues, xylem and phloem 4] Gymnosperms are vascular plants. They have vascular tissues, xylem and phloem 5] Cycas is included in gymnosperms. They bear seeds not enclosed in fruits 6] Bean plant is an angiosperm It bears seeds that are enclosed in fruits 7] It is easy to pull out monocot plants. They posses fibrous root system. 8] It is difficult to pull our dicot plant They have tap root system that grow deep in the soil 9] When ragi and legume are grown together, ragi quickly dehydrates with water supply is stopped. They have fibrous root system, that can absorb surface water that is about 2 feet deep. Whereas, legume has tap root system that can absorb water from deeper soil layers. 10] Fishes have spindle-shaped body. To reduce resistance for movement in water. 11] Frog is poikilothermic - cold blooded animal. Its body temperature varies with that of environment.

12] The bones in birds is called pneumatic bones. They are hollow and filled with air. 13] The skin is dry, rough covered with horny scales. To facilitate their creeping movement on land 14] Birds lay hard eggs The egg shells are calcarious 15] Meristem is considered as growth tissue. It contains cells capable of continuous cell division causing growth. 16] Parenchyma tissue is considered as simple permanent tissue. Because they have identical cells which contain living protoplasm and nucleus 17] Xylem is a complex permanent tissue. They have both living and non-living components 18] Meristematic tissue is found in stem apex, root tip and buds. To bring about growth. 19] Sclerenchyma fibres are used to produce gunny bags & ropes. They are elongated and are elastic & flexible 20] Striped Muscles are also called skeletal muscles. They are found attached to bones to bring about movement. 21] The organs on the left side get paralysed if right cerebral hemisphere is damaged. The nerves originating from the right cerebral hemisphere control the organs on the left side and vice versa. 22] We withdraw the hand if we touch a hot object. As a result of reflex action. 23] No image is formed at blind spot region of the eye. There are not receptor cells in this region. 24] The most clear and sharp images are formed in yellow spot/Fovea of the eye. There are a large number of cones in this region. 25] We are visually blocked out when we enter the house from sunlit area. The activity of cones gets totally stopped momentarily 26] We fail to feel the smell the food when suffering from common cold. The olfactory epithelium is affected.

27] The air pressure on either sides of eardrum is always equal the Eustachian tube connects the middle ear with the throat. 28] Endocrine glands are also called Duct-less glands. They release their secretions directly to blood. 29] Hormones are also called chemical messengers. They carry messages in the form of chemicals from one part of the body to another. 30] Thyroxin is considered as ‘Personality Hormone’. Thyroxin influences growth and differentiation of body. 31] Goitre is an endemic disease. It is found in certain regions only where there is not enough iodine. 32] Coastal people do not suffer from goitre. There is no deficiency of iodine in sea food and soil. 33] It is better to consume iodised salt. By this goitre can be prevented. 34] Adrenaline is also called ‘emergency hormone’ It is produced at the times of fear, tension, and such emotional stress conditions. 35] Pancreas is a mixed gland It has both exocrine and endocrine parts 36] A person shown reduced development of male characteristics. Deficiency of testosterone hormone 37] A patient suffering AIDS also suffers from many diseases His immunity is reduced because AIDS. 38] It is better to buy products that bear ISI or FPO marks. The quality of such products is guaranteed. 39] Lichens do not grow in city regions The level of air pollution is very high in cities. 40] Chloro Fluro Carbons are not environment friendly They destroy ozone layer. 41] It is desirable to grow broad-leaved plants near industries. They absorb noise produced by industries and reduce noise pollution.
