DMPQ:What are pressure belts? Explain with diagram

:  The distribution of atmospheric pressure across the latitudes is termed global horizontal distribution of pressure. Its main feature is its zonal character known as pressure belts.   On the earth’s surface, there are seven pressure belts. They are the Equatorial Low, the two Subtropical highs, the two Subpolar lows, and the two Polar highs. … Read more DMPQ:What are pressure belts? Explain with diagram

DMPQ: . What is Polymerase Chain reaction? What are the materials required for Polymerase chain reaction?

:  The polymerase chain reaction is a technique for cloning a particular piece or amplifying a single or few copies of a piece of DNA, generating millions or more copies of that particular DNA sequence. One can make virtually unlimited copies of a single DNA molecule even though it may initially be present in a … Read more DMPQ: . What is Polymerase Chain reaction?

DMPQ: Application of nanotechnology in the field of electronics and IT application. Discuss. (SCIENCE)

  Miniaturisation of the transistor size. Smaller, faster and better transistors may mean that soon your computer’s entire memory may be stored on a single tiny chip. Using magnetic random access memory (MRAM), computers will be able to “boot” almost instantly. MRAM is enabled by nanometer‐scale magnetic tunnel junctions and can quickly and effectively save … Read more DMPQ: Application of nanotechnology in the field of electronics and IT application.

DMPQ: What is captive breeding programme? Discuss its advantage(SCIENCE)

Captive breeding is the process of breeding animals outside of their natural environment in restricted conditions in farms, zoos or other closed facilities. The choice of individual animals that are to be part of a captive breeding population, and the mating partners within that population, are controlled by humans. Advantages: • Endangered animals have a … Read more DMPQ: What is captive breeding programme? Discuss its advantage(SCIENCE)

DMPQ: . Application of nanotechnology in the field of Energy application. (SCIENCE)

  Nanotechnology is improving the efficiency of fuel production from raw petroleum materials through better catalysis. It is also enabling reduced fuel consumption in vehicles and power plants through higher-efficiency combustion and decreased friction.  carbon nanotube “scrubbers” and membranes to separate carbon dioxide from power plant exhaust.

DMPQ: Discuss the points in favour of nuclear energy.

Low Pollution: Nuclear power also has a lot fewer greenhouse emissions. It has been determined that the amount of greenhouse gases have decreased by almost half because of the prevalence in the utilization of nuclear power. Nuclear energy has the least effect on nature since it doesn‘t discharge any gasses like methane and carbon dioxide, … Read more DMPQ: Discuss the points in favour of nuclear energy.

DMPQ: Nitrogen pollution is more dangerous than carbon pollution. How nitrogen affects our ecosystem. (Science)

:  Nitrogen is the most abundant gas in the atmosphere and it is in inert form. But when it converts into reactive form like ammonia, nitrous oxide and nitrogen di oxide, it become dangerous for the ecosystem in many ways. Nitrogenous gases also play an important role in global climate change. Nitrous oxide is a particularly … Read more DMPQ: Nitrogen pollution is more dangerous than carbon pollution.
