Explanation

Herbivores: These animals eat only plants.

The word "herbivore" comes from the Latin words "herba" (meaning plant) and "vorare" (meaning to eat).

Detritivores: These animals eat decaying organic matter.

Omnivores: These animals eat both plants and animals. 

Carnivores: These animals eat only meat. 

Explanation

Svedberg (Sv):

A unit measuring the sedimentation coefficient (how fast particles settle in a centrifuge).

Used in ultracentrifugation to study macromolecules (e.g., proteins, ribosomes).

1 Sv = 10⁻¹³ seconds.

Explanation

Trees as Environmental Buffers:

Climate Regulation: Absorb CO₂, release O₂, and moderate temperatures.

Soil Protection: Prevent erosion and maintain soil health.

Water Cycle: Help in groundwater recharge and reduce flooding.

Explanation

Natural Sources of Vitamin D:

Fatty Fish: Salmon, mackerel (richest sources).

Animal Products: Egg yolks, liver, butter, and fortified dairy.

Explanation

Two Protective Layers:

Renal Capsule: The inner layer, a tough fibrous membrane directly covering the kidney.

Adipose Capsule: The outer layer, a fatty cushion that protects against physical shock.

Explanation

Vitamin D is found in:

• Milk (fortified milk and dairy products)
• Cod liver oil (and other fatty fish oils)
• Sunlight (our bodies produce vitamin D when exposed to sunlight)

Additionally, vitamin D is also found in:

• Fatty fish (like salmon, mackerel, and sardines)
• Fortified cereals and orange juice
• Egg yolks
• Mushrooms (some types, like shiitake and portobello)

Explanation

Antonie van Leeuwenhoek is credited with the discovery of bacteria.

In 1676, using a primitive microscope, he observed and described microorganisms.

Including bacteria and protozoa, which he referred to as "animalcules".

Explanation

Eggs are considered a complete protein source,

They contain all the essential amino acids needed by the human body

A single egg can provide around 6-7 grams of protein. 

Banana:

A medium banana contains approximately 1 gram of protein. 

Apple:

Apples are very low in protein, containing only about 0.5 grams per serving. 

Cucumber:

Cucumbers are also extremely low in protein, with only around 0.3 grams per serving

Explanation

Reproductive Part of a Plant:

The flower is the part of the plant responsible for sexual reproduction.

It produces seeds (through pollination and fertilization) that grow into the next generation of plants.

Explanation

Carolus Linnaeus developed the binomial nomenclature system for naming organisms.

Each species is given a two-part Latin name: Genus and Species (e.g., Homo sapiens).
