The term ‘growth’ and ‘development’ are not new but refer to changes over a period of time. Is Child Development continuous or discontinuous? Continuous development sees […]
What statement is true about linked genes?
What statement is true about linked genes? The correct answer is option The closer two genes are on a chromosome, the lower the probability that a crossover will occur between them. What are linked genes? When genes are close together on the same chromosome, they are said to be linked. That means the alleles, or […]

How are metamorphic rocks classified?
How are metamorphic rocks classified? Metamorphic rocks are broadly classified as foliated or non-foliated. Non-foliated metamorphic rocks do not have aligned mineral crystals. Non-foliated rocks form when pressure is uniform, or near the surface where pressure is very low. The other minerals have been crushed and deformed into a fine-grained matrix (Mtx). What are metamorphic […]

Can the scientific method be cyclic?
Can the scientific method be cyclic? How does it work? The scientific method involves a cyclic process of observation, hypothesis and experimentation. Why is the scientific method not really linear? In contrast to the linear steps of the simplified scientific method, this process is non-linear: The process of science is iterative. Science circles back on […]

What happens to a wave when it reaches a barrier?
What happens to a wave when it reaches a barrier? Diffraction: A wave encountering a small obstacle tends to bend around the obstacle. This bending of the wavefront is called diffraction. When a wave encounters a barrier with an aperture, which is much smaller than the wavelength, the wave bends and spreads out as a […]
